DRM/VC4: Problems with Linux 4.6

[Josef Raschen <josef@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I think I need some help to get the VC4 DRM running. I am using a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, mainline Linux 4.6, the latest firmware blobs (bootcode.bin and start.elf) and u-boot 2016-05-rc3.

The bcm2835_defconfig is modified like this: 

+CONFIG_PM=y
+CONFIG_IP_PNP=y
+CONFIG_IP_PNP_DHCP=y
-CONFIG_I2C=y
-CONFIG_FB=y
+CONFIG_DRM=y
+CONFIG_DRM_VC4=y
-CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DETECT_PRIMARY=y
-CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_BCM2835=y
+CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_IPROC=y
+CONFIG_ROOT_NFS=y
+CONFIG_NEON=y
+CONFIG_KERNEL_MODE_NEON=y

The device tree files in the mainline kernel are also still not updated for the VC4 driver, so I used this patch from the LKML:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/3/4/739

The kernel command line looks like this: earlyprintk cma=256M@512M console=ttyAMA0 console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 rootwait

And then I try to run Weston, but this fails and I see the following messages on th kernel log:

[   38.025629] vc4-drm soc:gpu: failed to allocate buffer with size 7057408
[   38.032618] vc4-drm soc:gpu: failed to allocate buffer with size 7057408
[   38.040431] [drm:vc4_bo_create] *ERROR* Failed to allocate from CMA:

[   38.062290] [drm] num bos cached: 1
[   38.065858] [drm] size bos cached: 6892kb
 
Does anybody have an idea what is going on here? 

Thanks,
Josef
