+## Remote Virtio GPU Device support layer(meta-rvgpu)
+The RVGPU rendering engine, operating on a client-server model, creates 3D rendering commands on a client device and transmits them to a server device via the network, where the server-side device performs GPU-based rendering and displays the results. The meta-rvgpu currently supports x86, Raspberry Pi 4, and Renesas Boards platforms.
+RVGPU is OSS. For more details, visit the following URL:
+https://github.com/unified-hmi/remote-virtio-gpu
+
+## How to build
+Follow the [AGL documentation](https://docs.automotivelinux.org/en/master/#01_Getting_Started/02_Building_AGL_Image/01_Build_Process_Overview/) for the build process, and set up the "[Initializing Your Build Environment](https://docs.automotivelinux.org/en/master/#01_Getting_Started/02_Building_AGL_Image/04_Initializing_Your_Build_Environment/)" section as described below to enable the AGL feature 'agl-rvgpu'. For example:
+```
+$ cd $AGL_TOP/master
+$ source ./meta-agl/scripts/aglsetup.sh -m qemux86-64 -b qemux86-64 agl-demo agl-devel agl-rvgpu
+```
+After adding the feature, execute the command:
+```
+$ bitbake <image_name>
+```
+Replace the `<image_name>` with the appropriate values you want. We have confirmed the operation with the **agl-demo-platform**.
+
+## How to setup and boot
+For Environment setup instructions for each platform, refer to the following link in the AGL Documentation.
+[Building for x86(Emulation and Hardware)](https://docs.automotivelinux.org/en/master/#01_Getting_Started/02_Building_AGL_Image/07_Building_for_x86_%28Emulation_and_Hardware%29/)
+[Building for Raspberry Pi 4](https://docs.automotivelinux.org/en/master/#01_Getting_Started/02_Building_AGL_Image/08_Building_for_Raspberry_Pi_4/)
+[Building for Supported Renesas Boards](https://docs.automotivelinux.org/en/master/#01_Getting_Started/02_Building_AGL_Image/09_Building_for_Supported_Renesas_Boards/)
+
+For Raspberry Pi 4 and Supported Renesas Boards, refer to the above URL for boot methods.
+For x86 emulation (qemu), network bridge is required to enable communication with other devices when using RVGPU. Here’s an example procedure for your reference.
+```
+$ sudo ip link add <bridge_name> type bridge
+$ sudo ip addr add <IP address> dev <bridge_name>
+$ sudo ip link set dev <interface> master <bridge_name>
+$ sudo ip link set dev <bridge_name> up
+```
+Replace the placeholders with the appropriate values:
+- `<bridge_name>`: You can assign any name, for example: `br0`
+- `<IP_address>`: Enter an available IP address, for example: `192.168.0.100/24`
+- `<interface>`: Specify the network interface, for example: `eth0`
+
+To enable the use of the bridge, create or append /etc/qemu directory and /etc/qemu/bridge.conf file.
+```
+allow <bridge_name>
+```
+Make sure /etc/qemu/ has 755 permissions.
+Create the following bash file named **run_qemu_bridge.sh** in any `<WORKDIR>`.
+```
+#!/bin/bash
+
+KERNEL_PATH=$1
+DRIVE_PATH=$2
+BRIDGE_NAME="<bridge_name>"
+
+printf -v macaddr "52:54:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x" $(( $RANDOM & 0xff)) $(( $RANDOM & 0xff )) $(( $RANDOM & 0xff)) $(( $RANDOM & 0xff ))
+
+qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 2048 \
+ -kernel ${KERNEL_PATH} \
+ -drive file=${DRIVE_PATH},if=virtio,format=raw \
+ -cpu kvm64 -cpu qemu64,+ssse3,+sse4.1,+sse4.2,+popcnt \
+ -vga virtio -show-cursor \
+ -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net0,mac=$macaddr \
+ -netdev bridge,br=$BRIDGE_NAME,id=net0 \
+ -serial mon:stdio -serial null \
+ -soundhw hda \
+ -append 'root=/dev/vda rw console=ttyS0,115200n8 fstab=no'
+```
+Save the file and run the following to start QEMU.
+```
+sudo <WORKDIR>/run_qemu_bridge.sh <build_directory>/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/bzImage <build_directory>/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/agl-demo-platform-qemux86-64.ext4
+```
+When QEMU boot, assign an IP address. For example:
+```
+ifconfig <your environment> 192.168.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0
+```
+
+## How to run RVGPU remotely
+Prepare two images, one as the Sender and the other as the Receiver.
+It is necessary for the Sender and Receiver to be within the same network.
+
+**Receiver side**
+```
+$ export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/<your_UID>
+$ rvgpu-renderer -b 1080x1500@0,0 -p <Port_Number> &
+```
+Replace the placeholders with the appropriate values:
+- `<your_UID>`: Specify according to your environment, for example:1001
+- `<Port_Number>`: Enter an available port number, for example: 55555
+
+**Sender side**
+Create the following shell script **run_remote_app.sh** in any `<WORKDIR>` for a smooth experience.
+```
+#!/bin/bash
+
+mkdir -p /run/user/<New_UID>
+export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/<New_UID>
+export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/mesa-virtio
+
+# -------------
+# launch app
+# -------------
+$@
+```
+Replace the placeholders with the appropriate values:
+- `<New_UID>`: You can assign any UID, for example: 0
+
+Save the file and run the following to start weston.
+
+```
+$ rvgpu-proxy -s 1080x1500@0,0 -n <IP_address_of_Receiver>:<Port_Number> &
+$ <WORKDIR>/run_remote_app.sh weston --backend drm-backend.so -Swayland-0 --seat=seat_virtual -i 0 &
+```
+Replace the placeholders with the appropriate values:
+- `<Port_Number>`: Port set in the renderer.
+
+After completing these steps, the Weston screen from the Sender will be transferred and displayed on the Receiver using rvgpu-proxy and rvgpu-renderer. You can verify that everything is functioning properly by launching wayland applications on the Sender side, such as:
+```
+$ <WORKDIR>/run_remote_app.sh weston-simple-egl -f
+```
+
+You can also verify the touch or keyboard operation support of the RVGPU by using app such as
+```
+$ <WORKDIR>/run_remote_app.sh weston-smoke
+$ <WORKDIR>/run_remote_app.sh weston-editor
+```
+**Note**: There are known issues with mouse, such as the cursor becoming invisible and occasional flickering of a green screen.
+
+**Appendix**:
+- You can freely change the display position of the transferred surface in rvgpu-renderer by w option, such as
+ ```
+ rvgpu-renderer -b 1080x1500@0,0 -p <Port_Number> -w <x>,<y>
+ ```
+ The coordinates `<x>,<y> = 0,0` represent the top-left corner, and the default position is `0,250`.
+
+- By building the RVGPU on Ubuntu, it is possible to enable bidirectional remote rendering between the agl-demo-platform and Ubuntu.
+ For the build procedure on Ubuntu, see the following URL: https://github.com/unified-hmi/remote-virtio-gpu
