Re: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: Align serial size in drm_amdgpu_info_vbios
The uAPI isn't merged upstream yet, so can still be changed. But I agree that this should be squashed into the original patch while upstreaming. When this is just for umr as open source client then the question is still on the stable if this really need to be an IOCTL? Christian.

Re: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: Align serial size in drm_amdgpu_info_vbios
[AMD Public Use] The point of having the device ID in the structure is because we are reading it from the VBIOS header, not the asic registers. They should match, but an user may flash a VBIOS for a different devid and they may not match. Regarding sysfs vs ioctl I see value in providing it in both ways, Mesa uses IOCTL and other DRM based tools may benefit as well.

Re: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: Align serial size in drm_amdgpu_info_vbios
Marek and other userspace folks need to decide that. Basic question here is if Mesa is already accessing sysfs nodes for OpenGL or RADV. If that is the case then we should probably expose the information there as well. If that isn't the case (which I think it is) then we should implement it as IOCTL. Regards, Christian.
