The race condition between fbcon and drm_panic can only occurs if VT_CONSOLE is set. So update drm_panic dependency accordingly. This will make it easier for Linux distributions to enable drm_panic by disabling VT_CONSOLE, and keeping fbcon terminal. The only drawback is that fbcon won't display the boot kmsg, so it should rely on userspace to do that. At least plymouth already handle this case with https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/-/merge_requests/224 Suggested-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jocelyn Falempe <jfalempe@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig b/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig index a9df94291622..f5c989aed7e9 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig @@ -107,7 +107,7 @@ config DRM_KMS_HELPER config DRM_PANIC bool "Display a user-friendly message when a kernel panic occurs" - depends on DRM && !FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE + depends on DRM && !(FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE && VT_CONSOLE) select DRM_KMS_HELPER select FONT_SUPPORT help base-commit: 2bae076f3e35234e42bd7c90acd8caae8368ba90 -- 2.45.1
