Some new find outs: problem with wayland session is caused by EGL nvidia drivers initialization issue. I think it can be due to missing /usr/lib/gbm/nvidia-drm_gbm.so in latest packaged nvidia drivers.eglinfo -B output:

Maybe you have an idea if it is a dead end, something changed in GBM and this file shouldn’t be necessary anymore for nvidia drivers or something is not packaging properly?
Relevant informations (hardware involved, software version, logs or output…):
Yes, I have installed both previously, but it wasn’t solve this.
I have also find this in nvidia driver documentation:
Chapter 41. GBM and GBM-based Wayland Compositors
**** Overview ****
GBM is a memory allocation API developed as a component of the Mesa project.
Most Wayland compositors use the GBM API to initialize an EGLDisplay object
directly on a GPU, and to allocate the EGLSurface representing the desktop. The
NVIDIA driver includes a GBM backend enabling the use of such software on
NVIDIA GPUs. A GBM EGL external platform library is also included to enable the
use of GBM objects in EGL.
**** Requirements ****
The following are necessary to enable use of the NVIDIA driver's GBM backend
and its EGL and related Wayland client support:
* DRM KMS must be enabled. See Chapter 36,_Direct_Rendering_Manager_Kernel
Modesetting_(DRM_KMS) for details.
* libgbm.so.1 from Mesa version 21.2 (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/
mesa).
* egl-wayland version 1.1.8 or later must be present (if installed
separately from the the NVIDIA driver). To support applications that use
the wl_drm Wayland protocol to select a GPU to render on, such as
Xwayland, version 1.1.9 or later must be present.
**** Xwayland and GBM ****
Xwayland uses the GLAMOR backend to accelerate X application rendering using
EGL. While not required for basic functionality, GLAMOR acceleration is
required for good performance when running accelerated Vulkan or OpenGL X11
applications. The GLAMOR integration code in Xwayland has paths to use either
EGLStreams or GBM to allocate surfaces for use with accelerated rendering. To
use the GBM path with the NVIDIA driver's GBM backend and GBM EGL external
platform library, the installed copy of Xwayland should be a build from the
master branch of https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver at least as recent
as commit 5daf42b4. Xwayland versions 21.1.3 and above satisfy this
requirement.
See Chapter 40,_OpenGL,_Vulkan_and_VDPAU_on_Xwayland for more details on
Xwayland support in the NVIDIA driver.
**** Logging/Tracing ****
The NVIDIA GBM backend supports logging information about its behavior and the
reasons for various function call failures to stderr. Such information may be
useful for developers debugging applications or end users diagnosing system
behavior issues. Set the environment variable '__NV_GBM_TRACE_ENABLED' to a
non-zero integer value to enable this logging.
