[BUG] AMD Radeon Pro 5600M with 8GB of HBM2 memory shows blank screen on Linux

[BUG] AMD Radeon Pro 5600M with 8GB of HBM2 memory shows blank screen on Linux

[Aditya Garg]

The AMD Radeon Pro 5600M with 8GB of HBM2 memory GPU is found in MacBook Pro 16 inch, 2019 (MacBookPro16,4).

The GPU fails to work on Linux, thus a blank black screen gets displayed on boot.

If nomodeset is added as a kernel parameter, we are able to access Linux easily.

The link below contains the journalctl of the failed boot :-

Can you file a bug report:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/

What sort of monitor are you using?  It looks to be failing mode validation:
[drm] Mode Validation Warning: Urgent latency failed validation.

Well its Apple's 16 inch built in Retina display.

The same is used in models with :-
1. AMD Radeon Pro 5300M with 4GB of GDDR6 memory
2. AMD Radeon Pro 5500M with 4GB of GDDR6 memory
3. AMD Radeon Pro 5500M with 8GB of GDDR6 memory

But these models work perfectly with AMD GPU enabled.

I'm not sure if it was an unrelated issue, but on older versions
including 5.17.1, psp_v11_0_bootloader_load_sysdrv would timeout and
return -ETIME. I'm not sure when it started having Mode Validation
Warnings instead, but these errors are what it previously had:

[    5.136077] [drm:psp_hw_start [amdgpu]] *ERROR* PSP load sys drv failed!
[    5.136233] [drm:psp_hw_init [amdgpu]] *ERROR* PSP firmware loading failed
[    5.136351] [drm:amdgpu_device_fw_loading [amdgpu]] *ERROR* hw_init of IP block <psp> failed -22
[    5.136458] amdgpu 0000:03:00.0: amdgpu: amdgpu_device_ip_init failed

The patch used to test this and the kernel log I received from someone
using that patch are on this page:

It's not likely that the two are related.

What was this patch for?
