Re: boot delay with drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware

Hi,

thanks for the answer. This is my kernel config:

    developer@ubuntu:~/beaglebone/debian-fw/bb-kernel/KERNEL$ grep FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER .config
    developer@ubuntu:~/beaglebone/debian-fw/bb-kernel/KERNEL$ grep DRM .config
    CONFIG_DRM=y
    CONFIG_DRM_KMS_HELPER=y
    CONFIG_DRM_LOAD_EDID_FIRMWARE=y
    CONFIG_DRM_GEM_CMA_HELPER=y
    CONFIG_DRM_KMS_CMA_HELPER=y
    # CONFIG_DRM_I2C_CH7006 is not set
    # CONFIG_DRM_I2C_SIL164 is not set
    CONFIG_DRM_I2C_NXP_TDA998X=y
    # CONFIG_DRM_UDL is not set
    CONFIG_DRM_TILCDC=y
    # CONFIG_DRM_OMAP is not set


I am quite sure that in the end kernel finds firmware because otherwise the display isn't working. I only get a image on the display if my edid file is used.

Just a guess, kernel doesn't find the firmware and you fallback to user
mode helper, which is no longer supported by udev.

Try ensuring you have the path right, and disable FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER
kernel config option.

HTH,
Jani.
