From bc09e7ab569d5306ce99c5525150695c9d539ef0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tobias Geerinckx-Rice via Guix-patches via Date: Sun, 12 Dec 2021 06:45:15 +0100 Subject: gnu: linux-libre: Support the Coreboot framebuffer. MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Without this, the kernel cannot write to the display until the full-featured driver module (often i915) is loaded from the root file system. If the root file system is encrypted, the initrd's passphrase prompt won't make it to the screen, and the fully responsive system will appear frozen whilst waiting for user input. * gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.4-i686.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.4-x86_64.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.14-i686.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.14-x86_64.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.19-i686.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.19-x86_64.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/5.4-i686.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/5.4-x86_64.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/5.10-i686.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/5.10-x86_64.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/5.15-i686.conf, gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/5.15-x86_64.conf: Mark simple framebuffers as generic system ones and enable ‘Google’ firmware drivers to enable Coreboot table support and its dependent framebuffer driver module. * gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (default-initrd-modules): Add the framebuffer_coreboot and simplefb modules on x86 systems. --- gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.14-x86_64.conf | 10 ++++++++-- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.14-x86_64.conf') diff --git a/gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.14-x86_64.conf b/gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.14-x86_64.conf index 74b1f2cc18..db11c2f6e8 100644 --- a/gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.14-x86_64.conf +++ b/gnu/packages/aux-files/linux-libre/4.14-x86_64.conf @@ -928,7 +928,7 @@ CONFIG_RAPIDIO_CPS_XX=m CONFIG_RAPIDIO_TSI568=m CONFIG_RAPIDIO_CPS_GEN2=m CONFIG_RAPIDIO_RXS_GEN3=m -# CONFIG_X86_SYSFB is not set +CONFIG_X86_SYSFB=y # # Executable file formats / Emulations @@ -8332,7 +8332,13 @@ CONFIG_ISCSI_IBFT_FIND=y CONFIG_ISCSI_IBFT=m CONFIG_FW_CFG_SYSFS=m # CONFIG_FW_CFG_SYSFS_CMDLINE is not set -# CONFIG_GOOGLE_FIRMWARE is not set +CONFIG_GOOGLE_FIRMWARE=y +# CONFIG_GOOGLE_SMI is not set +CONFIG_GOOGLE_COREBOOT_TABLE=y +# CONFIG_GOOGLE_MEMCONSOLE_X86_LEGACY is not set +CONFIG_GOOGLE_FRAMEBUFFER_COREBOOT=m +# CONFIG_GOOGLE_MEMCONSOLE_COREBOOT is not set +# CONFIG_GOOGLE_VPD is not set # # EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) Support -- cgit v1.2.3
