There's a closed pull request on the void-packages repository

chromium: enable WebRTC screen sharing via PipeWire
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/26144

Description:
[ci skip]

- [x] libpipewire0.2
- [x] patch chromium's template
- [ ] test for all supported archs:
    - [x] x86_64 - works for Chromium 87: https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/26144#issuecomment-731759815 & 86: https://youtu.be/AgyxEC7SfGk
    - [ ] i686 - works for Chromium 86: https://youtu.be/j0MY9C1CwV4
    - [x] x86_64-musl - works for Chromium 87: https://youtu.be/ZJorRl_7Sh4
    There are minor issues though:
    * you have to kill `xdg-desktop-portal*` processes sometimes, probably caused by some sort of race condition;
    * also you may need to start/restart screensharing for it to work.

Currently I'm investigating these stability issues with `pipewire`. It seems that `pipewire` is trying to use `rtkit` to make audio/video processing run in real time. Unfortunately, it fails to do so:
```
2020-11-16T03:49:59.73350 daemon.err: Nov 16 03:49:59 rtkit-daemon[3165]: Failed to make ourselves RT: Function not implemented

2020-11-16T03:49:59.74118 daemon.err: Nov 16 03:49:59 rtkit-daemon[3165]: Failed to make ourselves RT: Function not implemented
```
After a bit of searching, I've found these bugs:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1229700
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=569546

I've built `linux5.9` for `x86_64` with `CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED` disabled.
For some strange reason, nothing changed, the error persists. Luckily, screen sharing works without `rtkit`.
I guess that those rare issues with screen sharing, which were described above, may be caused by `rtkit` not working.
