Beginning with DG2, all successive devices will require GuC FW to be present and loaded at probe() time. This change alters error handling in the FW init and load functions so that the driver's probe() function will fail if GuC could not be loaded.
We still need to load the i915 driver in fall back mode (display but no engines) if the GuC is missing. Otherwise you may have just bricked the user's device.
good point, well made. though this still seems like an issue for gen12+ (excluding rkl and adl).
maybe a redesign of toplevel driver probe, with i915_driver_early_probe before i915_driver_create could work. If the GuC fw is not found, it could then register a new kms only version of i915_drm_driver.
or something like like that ...
Or we could just leave it all alone?
AFAIK, this is working just fine at the moment. If the platform default is to use GuC submission and you have the fw then the driver loads fine. If the platform default is to use GuC submission and you don't have the firmware then the driver wedges but keeps loading. That means it returns no engines to userland but the display is unaffected. Hence the user gets a slow but safe fallback path in which they can still load their Ubuntu desktop and try to work out what package they need to install.
What is the problem that this patch is trying to fix?
In dg2 enablement branch, when fw was unavailable, submissions could still be attempted and it would segfault the kernel due to some function pointers not being set up.
From what you said, it sounds like this may just be a bug in the dg2 enablement, which we can diagnose and fix if so.
Though I still think it would be a better design to only register kms capabilities if that is all that will be supported without the fw. It seems a bit messy to advertise render and create the render node for userland sw to attempt to use and have it fail, but if that is the prefered design, then we can make dg2 match that.
John.
Also, we do want to be able to disable the GuC via the enable_guc module parameter.
John.
