** Description changed: - == Description == - Intel has requested us to update the media driver (free and non-free) to 24.3.4 due to the need to have Lunar Lake and Battle Mage (both recently released) support. - This request has a strong dependency on the gmmlib version bump: - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-gmmlib/+bug/2095071 - Also the libva version bump: - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libva/+bug/2095073 + [ Description ] + Intel has requested us to update the media driver (free and non-free) to 24.3.4 due to the need to have Lunar Lake (LNL) and Battle Mage (BMG) support. - == Changelog == - There is no changelog, but these are the 434 changes between the two versions: - https://github.com/intel/media-driver/compare/intel-media-24.1.0...intel-media-24.3.4 - == Testing impact == - Intel has done functional testing before release, and I have done smoke testing to check for regressions on Alder Lake (ADL) using ffmpeg and libva trace to check for hardware accelerated encode and decode for AV1, H264, and VP9. ADL running Noble did not appear to regress in my testing. I did the same testing on Lunar Lake (LNL) after the necessary kernel update coming in 24.04.2, and the version bump enabled HW decode for AV1, VP9, and H264. + This request has a strong dependency on an intel-gmmlib version bump to + 22.5.2 and a libva version bump to 2.22.0. + [ Impact ] - Build logs showing successful builds can be found here: - https://launchpad.net/~mckeesh/+archive/ubuntu/testing/+build/29976394 - https://launchpad.net/~mckeesh/+archive/ubuntu/testing/+build/30017327 + * Users with Lunar Lake or Battlemage currently do not have an LTS support option, which is not a good option for some users, as seen here: + https://github.com/canonical/intel-graphics-preview/issues/8 - Build artifacts at the same link install correctly in Noble: - ubuntu@determined-wheatear:~$ sudo dpkg -i intel-media-va-driver_24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb - (Reading database ... 75261 files and directories currently installed.) - Preparing to unpack intel-media-va-driver_24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb ... - Unpacking intel-media-va-driver:amd64 (24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1) over (24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1) ... - Setting up intel-media-va-driver:amd64 (24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1) … + * Users with Lunar Lake or Battlemage hardware will not have hardware- + enabled media support, which can effect the power consumption and CPU + utilization of the machine during encode/decode/transcode operations, + video calls, streaming, etc. - ubuntu@determined-wheatear:~$ sudo dpkg -i intel-media-va-driver-non-free_24.3.4+ds1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb - (Reading database ... 75256 files and directories currently installed.) - Preparing to unpack intel-media-va-driver-non-free_24.3.4+ds1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb ... - Unpacking intel-media-va-driver-non-free:amd64 (24.3.4+ds1-0ubuntu1) over (24.1.0+ds1-1) ... - Setting up intel-media-va-driver-non-free:amd64 (24.3.4+ds1-0ubuntu1) … + [ Test Plan ] - ubuntu@determined-wheatear:~$ sudo dpkg -i libigfxcmrt7_24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb - Selecting previously unselected package libigfxcmrt7:amd64. - (Reading database ... 75256 files and directories currently installed.) - Preparing to unpack libigfxcmrt7_24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb ... - Unpacking libigfxcmrt7:amd64 (24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1) ... - Setting up libigfxcmrt7:amd64 (24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1) ... - Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.39-0ubuntu8.3) … + # On a Lunar Lake or Battlemage machine - ubuntu@determined-wheatear:~$ sudo dpkg -i libigfxcmrt-dev_24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb - Selecting previously unselected package libigfxcmrt-dev:amd64. - (Reading database ... 75261 files and directories currently installed.) - Preparing to unpack libigfxcmrt-dev_24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb ... - Unpacking libigfxcmrt-dev:amd64 (24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1) ... - Setting up libigfxcmrt-dev:amd64 (24.3.4+dfsg1-0ubuntu1) ... + # Required at this time to get baseline enablement + sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kobuk-team/intel-graphics-testing + sudo apt update + + # Get the original versions back + sudo apt install -y intel-media-va-driver-non-free=24.1.0+ds1-1 libva2=2.20.0-2build1 libigdgmm12=22.3.17+ds1-1 vainfo=2.12.0+ds1-1 libva-drm2=2.20.0-2build1 libva-wayland2=2.20.0-2build1 libva-x11-2=2.20.0-2build1 + + # This should result in an error + sudo vainfo + + sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:mckeesh/testing && sudo apt -y update + # Only upgrade the media packages + sudo apt install -y intel-media-va-driver-non-free=24.3.4+ds1-0ubuntu1 libva2=2.22.0-1ubuntu1 libigdgmm12=22.5.2-0ubuntu1 libva-drm2=2.22.0-1ubuntu1 libva-wayland2=2.22.0-1ubuntu1 libva-x11-2=2.22.0-1ubuntu1 vainfo=2.12.0+ds1-1 + + # This should no longer result in an error + sudo vainfo + + [ Where problems could occur ] + + * This is a sizable change, and while significant testing goes into + making sure the media stack does not regress, it's always a risk.
