[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 0/2] drm/i915/dmc: Make firmware loading backwards-compatible

[Gustavo Sousa]

This patch series changes DMC loading to be backwards-compatible by removing
version checking and loading blobs from unversioned filenames.

Should this be accepted, the next step would be to update linux-firmware to
start using the unversioned filenames. That said, this change still allows to
use the previously versioned paths as fallback, allowing DMC loading to still
work with the current state of linux-firmware.

[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915/dmc: Do not require specific versions

[Gustavo Sousa]

Currently there is no DMC version requirement with respect to how i915
interacts with it and new versions of the firmware serve as drop-in
replacements of older ones. As such, do not require specific versions.

[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/2] drm/i915/dmc: Use unversioned firmware paths

[Gustavo Sousa]

As we do not require specific versions anymore, change the convention
for blob filenames to stop using version numbers. This simplifies code
maintenance, since we do not need to keep updating blob paths for new
DMC releases, and also makes DMC loading compatible with systems that do
not have the latest firmware release.

I'd keep the request_firmware() with warnings.

We have an issue here.  Previously `modinfo --field=firmware i915`
would report i915/dg2_dmc_ver2_08.bin. Now it's going to report
i915/dg2_dmc.bin

that modinfo call is what distros use to bundle the firmware blobs in
the initrd. It may also be used for creating package dependendies.

If we do this, unless they have updated their linux-firmware
packages, the initrd will be left without the firmware.
Just checked
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git main
and we still don't have the unversioned firmware there.

then not only it will be missing from initrd but we will also trigger
new warnings. Humn, I think one alternative approach and my proposal
would be:

leave platforms that already have published firmware as is as long as
they are not behind a force_probe. For the new platforms, like mtl,
just use the platform name and don't bother about the version.
We will also have to fix it in the linux-firmware repo.

We are likely not updating DMC for very old platforms anyway, no need to
rename them.  I think that after having symlinks in place in
linux-firmware for a few years/months, then we can go back and kill the
version numbers if we really want to.

Interesting. Thanks for the explanation!

I think one way of approaching the issue would be to synchronize the process:

1. Work toward getting approval for the patch (i.e. r-b);
2. With the approval, send a PR to linux-firmware with the necessary changes;
3. After the linux-firmware PR is merged, the patch could be integraged.

I think that would still apply if going with your proposal on your next comment.

Sounds good.

This patch was an attempt to have all supported platforms changed to the new
convention and keep us from having to send a new patch for each platform that
would need the change because of a new firmware release. But to avoid warnings,
I think your proposal would be better indeed.

It seems that currently the only platforms with display that are
using require_force_probe = 1 are DG1 and MTL, and the latter does not have an
entry in intel_dmc.c yet. Moving forward with your proposal, I guess we could
also keep DG1 as is and only update it when/if the time comes.

That said, I still think we would need the logic for loading from legacy paths
as fallback so that we do not cause regressions when, for example, ADL has an
update and we "move" it to the new convention. Do you agree?

So here is my proposal:

- Keep using the same paths (i.e. versioned ones) for the current entries in
  intel_dmc.c, but define them with DMC_LEGACY_PATH() and reserve DMC_PATH() for
  the new convention.

- Keep the logic for the fallback in place because we know that it will be
  needed soon enough for some more recent platforms.

- Similarly to your last remark, if we find it necessary, we could in the future
  remove the fallback logic after linux-firmware has all blobs using the new
  convention for good enough time.

here is where we disagree. I don't think we need any fallback, because
it will likely not work:

	MODULE_FIRMWARE(ADLP_DMC_PATH);

this means that distros will only package and or update their initrd
with the unversioned path. If a developer updates the kernel, the
fallback will simply not work if i915 is loaded from the initrd.

For those older platforms I think we can simply keep updating
linux-firmware overwriting the same dmc_adlp_2_16.bin. It's ugly, but
doesn't break compatibility.

I defer to maintainers to chime in on that though. Jani/Rodrigo, what do
you think?

Yeah... I was thinking about this and maybe we could also have MODULE_FIRMWARE()
calls for legacy paths as well. Looking at the documentation for
MODULE_FIRMWARE(), the module files are understood as "optional", so I think it
would be somewhat okay for one of the two missing, as long as the one is found.

I think declaring possibly missing fallback paths is less ugly than overwriting
the versioned path with a blob of a different version.

This is also my suggestion. Don't touch the old ones unless needed.
Let's live with the versions there for the ones we are not updating.

I believe this will generate a big warning when the initrd are getting updated
and the firmware is not there. Please run some experiments on your side there with
this idea. We need to avoid these warnings. But we might need to do something like
that, at least temporarily for the cases where we end up in need to update the
minor version and we are out of the force_probe protection.

Yeap, please, let's not override a path with a different version. This will
lead to confusions later.

Yeap, if one (not necessarily developer) updates the kernel, but for some
reason linux-firmware.git was outdated, then the initrd will end up empty
and the firmware won't get loaded.

This is the regression that we should avoid. One of the main reasons on why
we are removing the version from the path.

I did some research and tested generating initrds.

The test consisted of generating two images, both including i915. The firmware
directory was left untouched for the generation of the first image. For the
second image, ADLP DMC firmware files were removed from there location in the
system prior to calling the command to generate the image.

After generating the images, I compared their content. I checked that the module
object was present in both of them. I also checked that firmware files were also
present and that the firmware for ADL was missing in the second image.

I ran the test on:

  1. Arch Linux (my host system) using mkinitcpio;
  2. Ubuntu 22.04 (virtual machine) using mkiniramfs;
  3. Fedora 37 (virtual machine) using dracut.

For all cases, no warnings about missing firmware blobs were raised.

So should we go with keeping the fallback mechanism in place and declaring both
new (unversioned) and legacy (versioned) paths for the modules that will be
updated?

Following the direction to update paths only for platforms that get new DMC
releases, we would have dmc_legacy_path() simply returning NULL for the time
being (which I think is not that bad, as we know we will have new DMC releases
for platforms already using versioned paths).

Cool.

By the way, specifically for mkinicpio (the one used for Arch Linux), it does
raise warnings for missing firmware, but only if *not even one* firmware file
listed for the module was found - if *at least one* is found, it does not
complain.

I haven't checked if the behavior is the same for the other tools though - just
checked that they do not complain for the test scenario explained above, which
should suffice our case.
