Moreover, the firmware files are missing at the linux-firmware git: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/amdgpu
The solution below suggested to copy it from the link above, but I can't. https://askubuntu.com/a/1124256 I have just now fetched some updates for my Ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa LTS, but the issue still persists. I think the issue are missing drivers for some really new Radeon cards in the linux-firmware upstream. My RX550 is using the amdgpu driver apparently (see the listings in my post above) and the graphic performance seems to be alright for watching 4k video. Probably the RX550 is unaffected, but one is unable to use the new Radeon cards. There are a few strange issues, though. There are no "restricted drivers" listed at the "Software & Updates >> Additional Drivers". This is strange, since the RX550 should be able to use either the open amdgpu or the restricted amdgpu-pro. Also note I seem to have some video quality issues with the VLC (absent in Videos), but it might be a codec issue. -- 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/1850654 Title: update-initramfs complains of missing amdgpu firmware files Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Bionic: Invalid Status in linux-firmware source package in Bionic: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Eoan: Confirmed Status in linux-firmware source package in Eoan: Fix Released Bug description: SRU Justification Impact: With 5.3 update-initramfs reports several missing amdgpu firmware files: update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.3.0-19-generic W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/amdgpu/vega20_ta.bin for module amdgpu W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/amdgpu/raven_kicker_rlc.bin for module amdgpu W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/amdgpu/navi10_mes.bin for module amdgpu Of these, only raven_kicker_rlc.bin has been added to upstream linux- firmware. Fix: Add raven_kicker_rlc.bin to linux firmware, and remove the other files from modinfo for amdgpu. Test Case: Once fixed, the warnings from update-initramfs should be gone. Regression Potential: Adding a missing firmware is unlikely to break any working hardware. Removing the other missing files from modinfo will not cause regressions either, however if the firmware is added later update-initramfs will not add the files to the initramfs until the firmware is added back to modinfo.
