I found this in the AMDGPU webpage:
/AMDGPU with Display Core was first implemented for VEGA10 (GCN5.0)
and RAVEN (with DCN 1.0) GPUs/APUs. Kernels before version 4.17 have
(experimental) DC support for older cards (GCN1.1 and newer) via
command line option /amdgpu.dc=1/, which may work better than the
older radeon kernel module. Likewise, if DC needs to be disabled for
any particular reason, option /amdgpu.dc=0/can be used on the kernel
command line.
/
It's not clear to me if DC serves a function in kernels >= 4.17 or why
it's installed as default by grub ...
I don't see anything similar in the new kernel parameters I posted to
this topic, but I do find this in my .config file:
#
# Display Engine Configuration
#
CONFIG_DRM_AMD_DC=y
CONFIG_DRM_AMD_DC_DCN1_0=y
# CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL_DC is not set
Was this left over from an earlier configuration and not properly
cleaned out, or is it necessary, for some reason?
Can someone explain how the amdgpu.dc=1 parameter gets passed to grub?
Thanks in advance.
