Bug ID: 110733 Summary: [Regression] Kernel 4.19.x + linux-firmware 20190514 + Vega 64: boot fails Product: DRI Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) OS: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: DRM/AMDgpu Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: mezin.alexander@gmail.com
Copying https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203627 here, as I'm not sure where to report the issue (and got no response in kernel bugzilla so far)
After linux-firmware upgrade from 4b6cf2bd1a9d53caa087403d943e7695009c1d0c to 711d3297bac870af42088a467459a0634c1970ca (20190514), 4.19 kernels (at least 4.19.40-4.19.45) don't boot anymore. Early during boot the monitor turns off, and, apparently, the system hangs. Can't connect over SSH, SysRq keys don't work. Also the failed boot attempt doesn't get recorded by journald.
Kernels 5.0 and 5.1 still boot completely fine. Also, 4.19 kernels boot if I downgrade firmware back to 4b6cf2bd1a9d53caa087403d943e7695009c1d0c.
Apparently, these problems are caused by https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/...
GPU: RX Vega 64 (Sapphire Nitro+, vbios_version: 113-D0500110-O01) Distro: Arch Linux Archlinux bug: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/62666

--- Comment #1 from Alexander Mezin mezin.alexander@gmail.com --- This is caused by vega10_sos.bin Still happens with linux-firmware 20190618 and linux 4.19.56

--- Comment #2 from Alexander Mezin mezin.alexander@gmail.com --- Kernel starts booting with firmware 20190618 after commit https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i...
Unfortunately, when I apply that patch to 4.19.59, compilation fails, so I don't know if it's enough

--- Comment #3 from Alexander Mezin mezin.alexander@gmail.com --- With linux-firmware 20191022 + kernel 4.19.80 the system doesn't boot again
Is it possible to backport https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... to 4.19?
