Do you use the CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_OVERALLOC to use the fbdev libMali ? if yes, it won't work anymore since the generic fbdev emulation does not export the fbdev smem physical address anymore. The solution is to switch to the GBM libMali and drop any fbdev legacy code. > > Another problem that I face and might be related is that the sometimes the boot get stuck on the following lines: > > [ 2.501539] [drm] Supports vblank timestamp caching Rev 2 (21.10.2013). > [ 2.508158] [drm] No driver support for vblank timestamp query. > > This problem is random and can't always reproduced, sometimes it takes a few reboots to get the board to boot pass those lines.
