MGD: Can't capture OpenGL ES trace but Vulkan works

Hi,

MGD does not capture GLES calls. For Vulkan it works straitforward (had to copy libGLES_mali.so as a libVkLayerLayerMGD.so in app's folder to make it working)

When run mgddaemon on command line below error is printed

$ adb shell mgddaemon

I did setenforce 0 but it did not help. I followed the guidelines and tried various methods e.g. mv libGLES_mali.so from /system to /vendor and also putting in app's folder.

Can you explain the exact problem and if possible solution please.
