Bug#1053764: radeon-amdgpu-firmware-is-required-for-drm-and-kms-on-r600-onward.patch unnecessary for amdgpu now
Package: linux
Version: 6.5.0-1
Hi,
The patch carried by the Debian kernel
bugfix/all/radeon-amdgpu-firmware-is-required-for-drm-and-kms-on-r600-onward.patch
isn't necessary specifically for amdgpu anymore with modern kernels.
AMDGPU has been modified to check for the existence of firmware as part
of the IP discovery enumeration process. If firmware is missing, the
GPU probe will fail and the framebuffer provided by the boot firmware
will continue to be used.
I think the patch can be modified now to only cover radeon.
Thanks!
