[oi-dev] KMS bits landed in OpenIndiana Hipster

Mon Aug 29 19:39:19 UTC 2016

Hi Alexander,

glad to hear this. And I'm happy it will get used and wasn't created for nothing in half a year.
*Big Tnx :)*

Slight correction: In case of radeon it should perhaps be 2008/2009 or older, rather than 2006.
As mentioned before mostly OFFlist I extra bought me 4 different testing cards in June.

For those interested in pre-historic times here a small snipped from the large TODO file from June:

As for "old" versus "new" Intel adaptors also a slight comment:

This backport should work on everything from old Intel 8xx, 9xx to internal GPU Sandy (buggy) to Ivy, Haswell and some older valleyview Atoms, independently if Mobile, Desktop or Server version. So much for the theory at least ;)
Testing and bug reports would be highly appreciated for:  https://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Intel+KMS+driver   (TNX to Hipster team also for that cool page !)

This HDfoo naming used by Intel sheme is a bit random and not even the DRMM/KMS upstream drivers themselves are caring about these namings (they distinguish the CPU code names and CPU generations).

Here again the too short too tiny "Mini"-announcement from some weeks ago (a few "things" have changed since then, but I kept the text un-edited) :

Diffs against local Oracle gate https://java.net/projects/solaris-x11/sources/x-s12-clone/show/open-src/kernel?rev=1650 (older and newer) :

Diff against Illumos as full incorporation (preferred over local gate, more stable bins on problematic older rev'ed buggy Sandy) :

Then make a reconf reboot and you should end up in a Intel-KMS-DRM-GEM Gnome session! Don't forget to also remove or rename /a/etc/X11/xorg.conf (or replace "vesa" with "intel" in the device section) 11.) mv /dev/dri /dev/dri__OLD 12.) touch /a/reconfigure 13.) bootadm update-archive -R /a -v 14.) reboot -p -- -r Then you can enable compiz via the right mouse button and gnome settings menues. In case of questions feel free to drop me a message to Martin Bochnig <opensxce at gmx.org> (cannot access martin at martux.org since August 2015!) If you find this work useful, give some of my unpaid time back to PAYPAL: opensxce at gmx.org - and you would get listed as SPONSOR on opensxce.org's README. Please let me know if it works for you or if it doesn't, very important! I can then forward this information to my friends at the Hipster/OpenIndiana Community for listing on http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Intel+KMS+driver 

Sorry, still didn't have time to write up release notes.
But here now the same diffs and bins that really want out for more than a month now  ;)
Brings you accellerated gfx and compiz on Intel 8xx, 9xx (as before) but now plus Sandy, Ivy, Haswell (and in theory some older Valleyview) and finally lets you load modern userland Xorg ddx's which are kms-only since rev 2.9 (2010).
p.s. I kept the legacy radeon driver inside my local Illumos gate and for it the obsolete drm module had to survive/co-exist, too. That's why Illumos's Makefiles forced me to prefix the files with redundant names in old drm vs. new kms (renaming the folders wasn't sufficient). Just to explain to you: Didn't do that to cosmetically make the diff look larger ;)
I also bought me legacy radeon testing hardware and for the first time in overall-OpenSolaris history assigned more than a single pciid to it (Sun dropped that single one in 2009, too unstable).
We must decide later if we get the legacy OpenSolaris radeon drm kernel driver to function or otherwise remove it until either Oracle published more modern KMS port sources, or until I'm at the point to make FreeBSD's linuxkp work on OpenSolaris via lx zones https://wiki.freebsd.org/Use%20linuxkpi%20in%20DRM .
Will explain the full story in long ReleaseNotes some day.
Here however finally the diffs and bins because it would be a quite long document and I so far found the EFI32 Atom Z3735F port more interesting ;)
p.s. I will over August finally have the time to move all OpenSXCE.org legacy gates including openXsun Illumos port to https://github.com/OpenSXCE-org/FireFox-43-port-for-all-OpenSolaris-distros and also update the FF gate and sync it back with Hipster's latest changes which they added.

regards,
%martin bochnig

Tnx!
