[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1836858] Re: i915: Display flickers during "flickerfree" boot (BIOS logo on a black background)

2019-10-31 Thread Daniel van Vugt
Oh actually I just noticed that test kernel doesn't change or defer the
time at which I see:

  fb0: switching to inteldrmfb from EFI VGA

It's still around 2.5s regardless, even with the eoan kernel.

Title:
  i915: Display flickers during "flickerfree" boot (BIOS logo on a black
  background)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am trying flickerfree boot in 19.10 [1], but find it actually
  flickers part way through:

1. BIOS logo on a black background.
2. Display mode resets, no image on a black background briefly.
3. BIOS logo on a black background.

  The flicker occurs seemingly during kernel startup since my
  peripherals are lit up before the problem occurs.

  Suspecting this might be related to FB handover:

    [2.751028] fb0: switching to inteldrmfb from EFI VGA

  I tried disabling that with a big hammer:

    i915.modeset=0

  so it stays in efifb, and that works -- no more flickering, providing
  I don't let i915 take over the framebuffer.

@Paolo, I think from a desktop perspective we do validate the enabling
of the option (even if that's not enough to fix the bug here) so please
move forward with that if you can

2019-10-28 Thread Sebastien Bacher
Daniel, do you still see the 'fb0: switching to inteldrmfb from EFI
VGA'? The kernel change is needed from what upstream said even if it
might not be enoguh for your problem so I think it should still be a
step in the right direction and we should enable the option

2019-10-21 Thread Daniel van Vugt
Also keep in mind that the duration of the flicker here depends on the
model of monitor in use.

Some laptops/monitors might be super-fast and not black-out when the
programmed mode changes. But in my experience most will. Sometimes
quickly and sometimes slowly.

  i915: Display flickers during "flickerfree" boot (BIOS logo on a black
  background)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am trying flickerfree boot in 19.10 [1], but find it actually
  flickers part way through:

1. BIOS logo on a black background.
2. Display mode resets, no image on a black background briefly.
3. BIOS logo on a black background.

  The flicker occurs seemingly during kernel startup since my
  peripherals are lit up before the problem occurs.

  so it stays in efifb, and that works -- no more flickering, providing
  I don't let i915 take over the framebuffer.

for me, it's flicker-free but it doesn't show the vendor logo, only the
spinner appears during boot.

But for the first boot, it worked fine
