[PATCH] drm/Makefile: Move tiny drivers before native drivers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After commit 60aebc9559492cea ("drivers/firmware: Move sysfb_init() from
device_initcall to subsys_initcall_sync") some Lenovo laptops get a blank
screen until the display manager starts.

This regression occurs with such a Kconfig combination:
CONFIG_SYSFB=y
CONFIG_SYSFB_SIMPLEFB=y
CONFIG_DRM_SIMPLEDRM=y
CONFIG_DRM_I915=y      # Or other native drivers such as radeon, amdgpu

If replace CONFIG_DRM_SIMPLEDRM with CONFIG_FB_SIMPLE (they use the same
device), there is no blank screen. The root cause is the initialization
order, and this order depends on the Makefile.

FB_SIMPLE is before native DRM drivers (e.g. i915, radeon, amdgpu, and
so on), but DRM_SIMPLEDRM is after them. Thus, if we use FB_SIMPLE, I915
will takeover FB_SIMPLE, then no problem; and if we use DRM_SIMPLEDRM,
DRM_SIMPLEDRM will try to takeover I915, but fails to work.

So we can move the "tiny" directory before native DRM drivers to solve
this problem.
