[gentoo-user] anyone tried amdgpu (kernel module)

I have a Bonaire gpu, which has legacy support using the amdgpu kernel module.  I currently use the Radeon dri module with radeonsi mesa drivers and am quite happy.  But gentoo being gentoo I thought I'd give the amdgpu a go for the fun of it.
Tried a few variations and keep coming up with a black screen on boot and it's hard locked.  I'm using the same Firmware includes that the radeon driver requires, and from reading it looks like that's fine with amdgpu, so I'm not sure what else could be the issue.
Has anyone here tried and had success with it?  I've tried Kernels 4.2 4.2.4 4.3 and 4.3.2.  So I believe I'm missing something simple and it's not a kernel bug.

Did you consult the wiki article shown below when configuring your system
to use admgpu?

Yes I have.  The CIK parts kernel option is enabled.  the only thing I find a bit odd, is in the firmware include list is radeon/bonaire_sdma1.bin which doesn't exist on my system using sys-kernel/linux-firmware-20150812.  So I'm assuming it's an error on the wiki page.

Have you tried this firmware package instead, sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode?

Do you have the firmware included in your kernel config file?

Mission successful!  Thanks everyone, it appears the missing sdma1.bin from linux-firmware is contained in amdgpu-ucode and after switching everything is running fine.

Good to hear.

This is not working for me on a Kaveri system.

The wiki page suggests these firmware blobs:

radeon/kaveri_ce.bin radeon/kaveri_me.bin radeon/kaveri_mec2.bin 
radeon/kaveri_mec.bin radeon/kaveri_pfp.bin radeon/kaveri_rlc.bin 
radeon/kaveri_sdma1.bin radeon/kaveri_sdma.bin radeon/kaveri_uvd.bin 
radeon/kaveri_vce.bin

Unfortunately, radeon/kaveri_sdma1.bin does not seen to be available when I 
use sys-kernel/linux-firmware:

find /lib/firmware/radeon/ -iname KAVERI*sdma*
/lib/firmware/radeon/kaveri_sdma.bin
/lib/firmware/radeon/KAVERI_sdma.bin


I installed sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode, but KAVERI is not found there either:

find /lib/firmware/amdgpu/ -iname *sdma*
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_sdma.bin
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/carrizo_sdma1.bin
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/fiji_sdma.bin
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/fiji_sdma1.bin
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/tonga_sdma.bin
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/tonga_sdma1.bin
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/topaz_sdma.bin
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/topaz_sdma1.bin


Building the recommended blobs fails like so:

# make && make modules_install && make firmware_install
  CHK     include/config/kernel.release
  CHK     include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
  CHK     include/generated/utsrelease.h
  CHK     include/generated/bounds.h
  CHK     include/generated/asm-offsets.h
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CHK     include/generated/compile.h
kernel/Makefile:135: *** No X.509 certificates found ***
make[1]: *** No rule to make target '/lib/firmware//radeon/kaveri_sdma1.bin', 
needed by 'firmware/radeon/kaveri_sdma1.bin.gen.o'.  Stop.
Makefile:947: recipe for target 'firmware' failed
make: *** [firmware] Error 2

What now?

PS.  As VIDEO_CARDS in make.conf I used to have radeon and radeonsi, but have 
now changed it to amdgpu and radeonsi.  Should I revert and forget about 
radeon/kaveri_sdma1.bin?

That's interesting. 'kaveri_sdma1.bin' is found in the
'sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode' package. See below.
% pwd
radeon_ucode/kaveri
% ls -1 *sdma*
kaveri_sdma.bin
kaveri_sdma1.bin

Perhaps the path to the binary blobs specified in your kernel config file
is wrong? You want to double check that.

Hmm .. perhaps I've been doing this wrong?  Should I fill in:

(amdgpu/kaveri.bin radeon/kaveri.bin)

instead of:

(radeon/kaveri_ce.bin radeon/kaveri_me.bin radeon/kaveri_mec2.bin 
radeon/kaveri_mec.bin radeon/kaveri_pfp.bin radeon/kaveri_rlc.bin 
radeon/kaveri_sdma1.bin radeon/kaveri_sdma.bin radeon/kaveri_uvd.bin 
radeon/kaveri_vce.bin)

I've been doing the latter for as long as I can remember.

For my part, switching to amdgpu resulted in hard locking on sleep/resume, when switching back to radeon, there was another hard lock on boot if I continued using the amdgpu-ucode, until I removed it and put linux-firmware back on, there seems to be differences between the two.
amdgpu kernel, amdgpu-ucode, and (radeon/kaveri_ce.bin radeon/kaveri_me.bin radeon/kaveri_mec2.bin radeon/kaveri_mec.bin radeon/kaveri_pfp.bin radeon/kaveri_rlc.bin radeon/kaveri_sdma1.bin radeon/kaveri_sdma.bin radeon/kaveri_uvd.bin radeon/kaveri_vce.bin) all together should do the trick

I don't seem to have such a directory, or the files therein.  Where am I 
supposed to look?

No /kaveri/ in there.

This is what I have:

grep /firmware .config
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR="/lib/firmware/"

Looking at it again the amdgpu wiki page does not list amdgpu firmwares for 
the KAVERI APU.  However, I am confused as to why I can't find 
radeon/kaveri_sdma1 in my installed firmwares (either from linux-firmware, or 
from amdgpu-ucode.

What USE flags did you compile 'sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode' with?

If I am reading the section of the ebuild shown below correctly, having
'legacy' enabled is what installs the 'kaveri' binaries.
/usr/portage/sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode/amdgpu-ucode-20150803.ebuild:23,33
AMDGPU_LEGACY_CIK="bonaire hawaii kabini kaveri mullins"

src_install() {
    local directory files legacyfiles
    if use legacy; then
        for directory in ${AMDGPU_LEGACY_CIK}; do
            legacyfiles+=( ${directory}/*.bin )
        done
        insinto /lib/firmware/radeon
        doins ${legacyfiles[@]}
    fi

'legacy' seems to be disabled by default. See below.
# emerge -ap sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies  ... done!
[ebuild  N    ~] sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode-20150803  USE="-legacy"

Aha!  Good catch!

[-      ] legacy
    sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode: Install firmware for older chipsets which 
    are optionally supported by AMDGPU
        [-  ] 20150803 [gentoo]


Can I have both amdgpu and linux-firmware?

The latter has some wireless firmware I think I need to retain.

OK, I can have both emerged with the legacy USE flag, because of radeon 
firmware file collisions.

Why is it asking for radeon/BONAIRE_*.bin?  :-/

The wiki page suggests I use the kaveri list of firmwares.  Should I use 
bonaire instead?  Or should I add the bonaire list to my existing kaveri 
firmwares in the kernel?

yes you can, you have to install linux-firmware with the savedconfig use flag, after emerging it'll give the location of the config file in the output, open it up and remove the radeon firmware from being built so there are no collisions and you can remove anything else you are sure you won't need, then re-emerge linux-firmware and you should be good to goI needed network firmware also

I'd be most curios to know if anyone has any version of the radeon Fury
(Fury X2) that uses the HBM  running on Gentoo, regardless of configuration.

Multiple cards in the same system?
