Pretty much. In essence we want to offer a combination with somekind of proof (read tested) that it works. And lock that combination. Think about it as a colored seal paint on screw heads on some products: these were tested and delivered together. You can unscrew and dissassemble the parts still with minimal effort and mix the pieces, but they may or may not work as planned if you do so. And if you broke the seal paint and get a black screen, you know who to blame. -Mika > > BR, > Jani. > > >> >> -Patrik >> >>> >>> -Mika >>> >>> >>> > Cc: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.v...@intel.com> >>> > Cc: Imre Deak <imre.d...@intel.com> >>> > Cc: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuopp...@linux.intel.com> >>> > Signed-off-by: Patrik Jakobsson <patrik.jakobs...@linux.intel.com> >>> > --- >>> > drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_csr.c | 29 ++++++++++++++--------------- >>> > 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) >>> > >>> > diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_csr.c >>> > b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_csr.c >>> > index 2b3b428..ea047cd 100644 >>> > --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_csr.c >>> > +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_csr.c >>> > @@ -41,15 +41,15 @@ >>> > * be moved to FW_FAILED. >>> > */ >>> > >>> > -#define I915_CSR_KBL "i915/kbl_dmc_ver1.bin" >>> > +#define I915_CSR_KBL "i915/kbl_dmc_ver1_01.bin" >>> > MODULE_FIRMWARE(I915_CSR_KBL); >>> > #define KBL_CSR_VERSION_REQUIRED CSR_VERSION(1, 1) >>> > >>> > -#define I915_CSR_SKL "i915/skl_dmc_ver1.bin" >>> > +#define I915_CSR_SKL "i915/skl_dmc_ver1_26.bin" >>> > MODULE_FIRMWARE(I915_CSR_SKL); >>> > -#define SKL_CSR_VERSION_REQUIRED CSR_VERSION(1, 23) >>> > +#define SKL_CSR_VERSION_REQUIRED CSR_VERSION(1, 26) >>> > >>> > -#define I915_CSR_BXT "i915/bxt_dmc_ver1.bin" >>> > +#define I915_CSR_BXT "i915/bxt_dmc_ver1_07.bin" >>> > MODULE_FIRMWARE(I915_CSR_BXT); >>> > #define BXT_CSR_VERSION_REQUIRED CSR_VERSION(1, 7) >>> > >>> > @@ -286,7 +286,7 @@ static uint32_t *parse_csr_fw(struct drm_i915_private >>> > *dev_priv, >>> > uint32_t dmc_offset = CSR_DEFAULT_FW_OFFSET, readcount = 0, nbytes; >>> > uint32_t i; >>> > uint32_t *dmc_payload; >>> > - uint32_t required_min_version; >>> > + uint32_t required_version; >>> > >>> > if (!fw) >>> > return NULL; >>> > @@ -303,24 +303,23 @@ static uint32_t *parse_csr_fw(struct >>> > drm_i915_private *dev_priv, >>> > csr->version = css_header->version; >>> > >>> > if (IS_KABYLAKE(dev_priv)) { >>> > - required_min_version = KBL_CSR_VERSION_REQUIRED; >>> > + required_version = KBL_CSR_VERSION_REQUIRED; >>> > } else if (IS_SKYLAKE(dev_priv)) { >>> > - required_min_version = SKL_CSR_VERSION_REQUIRED; >>> > + required_version = SKL_CSR_VERSION_REQUIRED; >>> > } else if (IS_BROXTON(dev_priv)) { >>> > - required_min_version = BXT_CSR_VERSION_REQUIRED; >>> > + required_version = BXT_CSR_VERSION_REQUIRED; >>> > } else { >>> > MISSING_CASE(INTEL_REVID(dev_priv)); >>> > - required_min_version = 0; >>> > + required_version = 0; >>> > } >>> > >>> > - if (csr->version < required_min_version) { >>> > - DRM_INFO("Refusing to load old DMC firmware v%u.%u," >>> > - " please upgrade to v%u.%u or later" >>> > - " [" FIRMWARE_URL "].\n", >>> > + if (csr->version != required_version) { >>> > + DRM_INFO("Refusing to load DMC firmware v%u.%u," >>> > + " please use v%u.%u [" FIRMWARE_URL "].\n", >>> > CSR_VERSION_MAJOR(csr->version), >>> > CSR_VERSION_MINOR(csr->version), >>> > - CSR_VERSION_MAJOR(required_min_version), >>> > - CSR_VERSION_MINOR(required_min_version)); >>> > + CSR_VERSION_MAJOR(required_version), >>> > + CSR_VERSION_MINOR(required_version)); >>> > return NULL; >>> > } >>> > >>> > -- >>> > 2.5.0 > > -- > Jani Nikula, Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
