Holographic remoting remote app using OpenXR on Linux

The documentation at this MRTK page implies that an OpenXR remote app is possible. However, the rest of the article only discusses the Microsoft.Holographic.Remoting.OpenXr Nuget package and later, in this section, specifics of a DX11/12 based implementation.

My question is: Is it possible to develop a Holographic remoting remote app on Linux using a different OpenXR runtime or any other means?

Edit: Answers that use WSL2 and/or the new dxgkrnl to interface to Microsoft.Holographic.Remoting.OpenXr are also welcome, although I’d prefer to keep the server purely on Linux.

Thanks in advance!

Answer

The Microsoft remoting OpenXR runtime only runs on Windows. It uses D3D internally and various other Windows APIs also for cryptography.
