[PATCH] Fix failure of simpledrm probe when trying to grab FB from the EFI-based Framebuffer

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

 



   The simpledrm.c does not call aperture_remove_conflicting_devices() in it's probe
   function as the drivers/video/aperture.c documentation says it should. Consequently
   it's request for the FB memory fails.

...
[    3.085302] simple-framebuffer bd58dc000.framebuffer: [drm] *ERROR* could not acquire memory range [??? 0xffff6e1d8629d580-0x2a5000001a7 flags 0x0]: -16
[    3.086433] simple-framebuffer: probe of bd58dc000.framebuffer failed with error -16
...

   In my case no driver provided /dev/dri/card0 device is available on boot up and X
   fails to start as per this from X start up log.

...
[     5.616] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for modesetting
[     5.616] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory
...

   Fault confirmed and fixed on Asahi 6.5.0 kernel with both CONFIG_FB_EFI and
   CONFIG_DRM_SIMPLEDRM config options set.
