//
// Explanation: See bug 639842. Safely getting GL driver info on X11 is hard, because the only way to do
// that is to create a GL context and call glGetString(), but with bad drivers,
// just creating a GL context may crash.
//
// This file implements the idea to do that in a separate process.
//
// The only non-static function here is fire_glxtest_process(). It creates a pipe, publishes its 'read' end as the
// mozilla::widget::glxtest_pipe global variable, forks, and runs that GLX probe in the child process,
// which runs the glxtest() static function. This creates a X connection, a GLX context, calls glGetString, and writes that
// to the 'write' end of the pipe.
