Hello,
I've just been hit by this old bug which is still present in 4.14:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80675
On MCP79 (ION), when stolen memory is set to 32MB in BIOS, console is blank
but X11 works. When the stolen memory is increased to 64MB, console works
fine.
Bisected it to this:
4f6029da58ba9204c98e33f4f3737fe085c87a6f is the first bad commit
commit 4f6029da58ba9204c98e33f4f3737fe085c87a6f
Author: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@redhat.com>
Date: Fri Nov 16 11:54:31 2012 +1000
drm/nv50-nvc0: switch to common disp impl, removing previous version
Signed-off-by: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@redhat.com>
It's a big change so I'm not able to do more debugging.

OK, well that makes a *ton* of sense (8bpp being broken). I think the idea of bpp reduction is that when you're on your shiny new Riva TNT with 16MB of VRAM, you don't want to go crazy allocating all that to a pinned fbcon - almost half of that would go to a single 32bpp 1600x1200 buffer, more for 1920x1200. You want to be able to have at least a few fb-sized buffers for backbuffer rendering, etc. The specific limits could probably use tweaking - I think they only consider VRAM size, not the fb size. I guess 8bpp worked prior to the change you bisected though, so we should figure out what we did wrong in the new code. -ilia _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list Nouveau@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 19+ messages in thread

OK, well that makes a *ton* of sense (8bpp being broken). I think the idea of bpp reduction is that when you're on your shiny new Riva TNT with 16MB of VRAM, you don't want to go crazy allocating all that to a pinned fbcon - almost half of that would go to a single 32bpp 1600x1200 buffer, more for 1920x1200.

Yes, booted 3.7 (last working kernel) and it's running in 8bpp. I guess that nv50_head_gamma_set() is missing something like this (from nv_crtc_gamma_set()): /* We need to know the depth before we upload, but it's possible to * get called before a framebuffer is bound. If this is the case, * mark the lut values as dirty by setting depth==0, and it'll be * uploaded on the first mode_set_base() */ if (!nv_crtc->base.primary->fb) { nv_crtc->lut.depth = 0; return 0; } That's easy to add but there's no mode_set_base() for nv50 so there's no place to add code like this: if (nv_crtc->lut.depth != drm_fb->format->depth) { nv_crtc->lut.depth = drm_fb->format->depth; nv_crtc_gamma_load(crtc); } -- Ondrej Zary _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list Nouveau@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 19+ messages in thread

In case I was being unclear, I'm talking about https://github.com/skeggsb/nouveau/blob/master/drm/nouveau/nv50_display.c#L1808 and surrounding items. Looks like lut_clr sets 0x40000000 which was previously not used. Not sure what the difference between that and 0x00000000 is. This is what we have in rnndb for it: https://github.com/envytools/envytools/blob/master/rnndb/display/nv_evo.xml#L408 So bit 30 is mode, set is "high res", unset is "low res". So really what we want is 0x80000000 which leaves the LUT enabled but uses the low-res mode? All this could use some playing-around with. -ilia _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list Nouveau@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 19+ messages in thread

In case I was being unclear, I'm talking about https://github.com/skeggsb/nouveau/blob/master/drm/nouveau/nv50_display.c#L1808 and surrounding items. Looks like lut_clr sets 0x40000000 which was previously not used. Not sure what the difference between that and 0x00000000 is. This is what we have in rnndb for it: https://github.com/envytools/envytools/blob/master/rnndb/display/nv_evo.xml#L408 So bit 30 is mode, set is "high res", unset is "low res".

But it does now - I mailed a patch to dri-devel, also (with slight fix) available at https://people.freedesktop.org/~imirkin/patches/0001-modetest-add-C8-support-to-generate-SMPTE-pattern.patch This works on GK208 but not on G92 (whose display unit is much closer to your MCP79's).
