Feel free to add my: Reviewed-by: Emil Velikov Tested-by: Emil Velikov Also feel free to reuse as much/little of the following setup details. To reproduce the issue: Get a dual GPU system - Intel+Nvidia in my case. Set the other (Nvidia) as default in UEFI and connect monitors to it. Ensure the bootloader (and if using splash manager like plymouth) are set to display the UEFI BGRT. Personally I tested systemd-boot, although GRUB should also work. I couldn't get plymouth to work/behave here :shrug: Note: Having the Nvidia drivers in the initramfs can lead to extra flicker so leave them out. Include the i915 drivers in initramfs. Without the patch, the existing bootslash is wiped clean almost instantaneously as the i915 driver calls intel_vga_disable(). With your patch the call is a no-op, and the bootsplash stays around until the login manager (and X) is spawned.

Does the following make sense? Currently on dual GPU systems, we do not get seamless handover as the output flickers during the transition bootloader -> plymouth -> desktop. This happens as a result of switching (via the VGA arbiter) from the "other" GPU back to the default i915 one and issuing io() commands. -Emil ___ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx

[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: only disable default vga device
From: Vivek Das Mohapatra This patch is to do with seamless handover, eg when the sequence is bootloader → plymouth → desktop. It switches the vga arbiter from the "other" GPU to the default one (intel in this case), so the driver can issue some io(). Signed-off-by: Vivek Das Mohapatra Signed-off-by: Emil Velikov --- Greetings all, This patch has been downstream for a while now yet it seems perfectly reasonable thing to have in the Linux kernel. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steamos_kernel/commit/5431b5b1999c3d3b5efee817fb3373fbbd473063 drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_vga.c | 14 -- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_vga.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_vga.c index be333699c515..4f07b5ad5fa0 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_vga.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_vga.c @@ -30,12 +30,14 @@ void intel_vga_disable(struct drm_i915_private *dev_priv) u8 sr1; /* WaEnableVGAAccessThroughIOPort:ctg,elk,ilk,snb,ivb,vlv,hsw */ - vga_get_uninterruptible(pdev, VGA_RSRC_LEGACY_IO); - outb(SR01, VGA_SR_INDEX); - sr1 = inb(VGA_SR_DATA); - outb(sr1 | 1 << 5, VGA_SR_DATA); - vga_put(pdev, VGA_RSRC_LEGACY_IO); - udelay(300); + if (pdev == vga_default_device()) { + vga_get_uninterruptible(pdev, VGA_RSRC_LEGACY_IO); + outb(SR01, VGA_SR_INDEX); + sr1 = inb(VGA_SR_DATA); + outb(sr1 | 1 << 5, VGA_SR_DATA); + vga_put(pdev, VGA_RSRC_LEGACY_IO); + udelay(300); + } intel_de_write(dev_priv, vga_reg, VGA_DISP_DISABLE); intel_de_posting_read(dev_priv, vga_reg); -- 2.27.0 ___ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
