so it should be enough to pull b693dacc8b14001 linux-firmware: Add i915 DMC firmware 5a7595e80b7a527 linux-firmware: New minor DMC release for Skylake. a750f4ee10f9626 linux-firmware: New minor DMC release for Skylake - ver1_18 9d3047ab4edc9ba linux-firmware: New minor DMC release for Skylake - ver1_19
from git://people.freedesktop.org/~vivijim/linux-firmware-i915 master the rest can wait, we don't have code for GuC yet before 4.3, and Broxton is still hot air anyway. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441861 Title: Add new firmware for Skylake graphics Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux-firmware source package in Trusty: In Progress Status in linux-firmware source package in Vivid: In Progress Status in linux-firmware source package in Wily: In Progress Bug description: from https://01.org/linuxgraphics/intel-linux-graphics-firmwares Description Gen9 Intel® Graphics for Linux (Skylake) includes 2 microcontrollers to extract maximum performance and to provide low power states for better power consumption. GuC GuC is an embedded micro-controller in the graphics sub-system that is designed to perform graphics workload scheduling on the various graphics parallel engines. In this scheduling model, host software submits work through one of the 256 graphics doorbells and this invokes the micro-kernel running on the GuC core to perform the scheduling operation on the appropriate graphics engine. Scheduling operations include determining which workload to run next, submitting a workload to a command streamer, pre-empting existing workloads running on an engine, monitoring progress and notifying host SW when work is done. DCM DCM is a display micro-controller that provides additional low-power idle states for improved platform power consumption. The skl_dmc_ver4.bin firmware is hot-loaded to the display microcontroller at runtime, and the microcontroller manages the additional low-power idle states independently from the OS/Kernel.
