Public bug reported: Came across something bizarre when investigating the audio situation with server on the Pi 5 (LP: #2038924). Moving the server images to use the KMS overlay solves the situation, and would be preferable as it would eliminate another difference between server and desktop images. However, it also renders the 512MB 3A+ unbootable with an out-of-memory error. The reason this is strange is that the 512MB Zero 2W continues to boot quite happily. I'm attaching the serial output from the kernel up to the point of the crash (screenlog.0).
The only changes made to the stock server config.txt were the addition of these lines under the final "[all]" section: [all] dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d disable_fw_kms_setup=1 This setup booted happily on all other boards. A trivial workaround is to manually specify a smaller CMA on the 3A+ with: dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d,cma-128 With this alteration, it boots happily (and I'll be using this in an appropriate [section] to work around the issue), but it might be nice to understand why this is required on this board specifically (and why the 512MB Zero 2W doesn't exhibit the same issue). ** Affects: linux-raspi (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Status: New ** Attachment added: "screenlog.0" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2060300/+attachment/5761694/+files/screenlog.0 ** Changed in: linux-raspi (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-raspi in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2060300 Title: KMS overlay causes OOM oops on 3A+ Status in linux-raspi package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Came across something bizarre when investigating the audio situation with server on the Pi 5 (LP: #2038924).
