Sometimes it would be most enlightening to debug systems by replacing the VBT to be used. For example, in the referenced bug the BIOS provides different VBT depending on the boot mode (UEFI vs. legacy). It would be interesting to try the failing boot mode with the VBT from the working boot, and see if that makes a difference. Add a module parameter to load the VBT using the firmware loader, not unlike the EDID firmware mechanism. As a starting point for experimenting, one can pick up the BIOS provided VBT from /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_opregion/i915_vbt. v2: clarify firmware load return value check (Bob) v3: kfree the loaded firmware blob References: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97822#c83 Reviewed-by: Bob Paauwe <bob.j.paauwe@intel.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch> Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20170817115209.25912-1-jani.nikula@intel.com |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
