Bug#864529: firmware-amd-graphics: missing firmware for AMD Radeon RX 560,570,580
Package: firmware-amd-graphics
Version: 20161130-3
Severity: important
Tags: upstream
Dear Maintainer,
the new AMD Radeon RX 560 is currently missing a important firmware file:
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/polaris11_k_smc.bin (RX 560)
/lib/firmware/amdgpu/polaris10_k_smc.bin (RX 570, RX 580)
This firmware was added to linux-firmware.git back in February 2017:

Adding the firmware file manually into /lib/firmware/amdgpu
and loading amdgpu module does work as expected. The driver loads
and the GFX card has surprisingly good support. (No really!)
Thanks,
Christian Lamparter
