+Subject: [PATCH] terminal: open the pty only once a display is attached
+
+The session type handed to the child (TERM_SESSION_TYPE=kms or fb) is
+decided in terminal_open() from the displays attached at that moment.
+On a real VT the first session is activated as soon as the seat wakes
+up, which happens before the DRM display has finished probing, so the
+login is spawned with TERM_SESSION_TYPE=fb even though the terminal
+ends up on a KMS display a few hundred milliseconds later.
+
+Session managers such as uwsm rely on that variable to decide whether
+they have to ask kmscon to release the display before starting a
+compositor. With the wrong type the request is never sent, kmscon
+keeps DRM master, and the compositor fails to open the device until it
+gives up.
+
+Defer opening the pty until the first display has been added to the
+terminal, and open it from terminal_add_display() when the terminal is
+already awake at that point.
