Bug ID: 91917
Summary: linux-firmware.git should carry most recent firmware
for SI, CI et al.
Product: DRI
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: low
Component: DRM/Radeon
Assignee: dri-devel at lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: kai at dev.carbon-project.org
CC: alexdeucher at gmail.com
Right now the firmware shipped in
<https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/radeon>
is older, than what is available from
<https://secure.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/>. Please consider
submitting the most recent firmware files to the linux-firmware repository.
For example, the most recent hawaii_ce.bin
(<https://secure.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/hawaii/hawaii_ce.bin>) is
from 2015-06-10, while the linux-firmware repository saw the last update on
2014-08-20 (merge was seven days later). As a MD5 comparison shows, these are
not the same files:
9e05820da42549ce9c89d147cf1f8e19 linux-firmware/hawaii_ce.bin
286640da3d90d7b51bdb038b65addc47 p.fd.o/~agd5f/hawaii_ce.bin
This update would allow me (and others) to drop custom "update" directories
from /lib/firmware as distributions would pick them up. Which in turn would
ease testing of new Kernels and Mesa revisions.
