[PATCH 3/3] drm/xe: Update GuC/HuC firmware autoselect logic

Lucas De Marchi lucas.demarchi at intel.com
Fri Mar 24 05:17:54 UTC 2023


Update the logic to autoselect GuC/HuC for the platforms with the
following improvements:

- Document what is the firmware file that is expected to be
  loaded and what is checked from blob headers
- When the platform is under force-probe it's desired to enforce
  the full-version requirement so the correct firmware is used
  before widespread adoption and backward-compatibility

  commitments
- Directory from which we expect firmware blobs to be available in
  upstream linux-firmware repository depends on the platform: for
  the ones supported by i915 it uses the i915/ directory, but the ones
  expected to be supported by xe, it's on the xe/ directory. This
  means that for platforms in the intersection, the firmware is
  loaded from a different directory, but that is not much important
  in the firmware repo and it avoids firmware duplication.

- Make the table with the firmware definitions clearly state the
  versions being expected. Now with macros to select the version it's
  possible to choose between full-version/major-version for GuC and
  full-version/no-version for HuC. These are similar to the macros used
  in i915, but implemented in a slightly different way to avoid
  duplicating the macros for each firmware/type and functionality,
  besides adding the support for different directories.

- There is no check added regarding force-probe since xe should
  reuse the same firmware files published for i915 for past
  platforms. This can be improved later with additional
  kunit checking against a hardcoded list of platforms that

  falls in this category.
- As mentioned in the TODO, the major version fallback was not
  implemented before as currently each platform only supports one
  major. That can be easily added later.

- GuC version for MTL and PVC were updated to 70.6.4, using the exact
  full version, while the

After this the GuC firmware used by PVC changes to pvc_guc_70.5.2.bin
since it's using a file not published yet.

+/*
+ * List of required GuC and HuC binaries per-platform. They must be ordered
+ * based on platform, from newer to older.
+ *
+ * Versioning follows the guidelines from
+ * Documentation/driver-api/firmware/firmware-usage-guidelines.rst. There is a
+ * distinction for platforms being officially supported by the driver or not.
+ * Platforms not available publicly or not yet officially supported by the
+ * driver (under force-probe), use the mmp_ver(): the firmware autoselect logic
+ * will select the firmware from disk with filename that matches the full
+ * "mpp version", i.e. major.minor.patch. mmp_ver() should only be used for
+ * this case.
+ *
+ * For platforms officially supported by the driver, the filename always only
+ * ever contains the major version (GuC) or no version at all (HuC).
+ *
+ * After loading the file, the driver parses the versions embedded in the blob.
+ * The major version needs to match a major version supported by the driver (if
+ * any). The minor version is also checked and a notice emitted to the log if
+ * the version found is smaller than the version wanted. This is done only for
+ * informational purposes so users may have a chance to upgrade, but the driver
+ * still loads and use the older firmware.
+ *
+ * Examples:
+ *
+ *	1) Platform officially supported by i915 - using Tigerlake as example.
+ *	   Driver loads the following firmware blobs from disk:
+ *
+ *		- i915/tgl_guc_<major>.bin
+ *		- i915/tgl_huc.bin
+ *
+ *	   <major> number for GuC is checked that it matches the version inside
+ *	   the blob. <minor> version is checked and if smaller than the expected
+ *	   an info message is emitted about that.
+ *
+ *	1) XE_<FUTUREINTELPLATFORM>, still under require_force_probe. Using
+ *	   "wipplat" as a short-name. Driver loads the following firmware blobs
+ *	   from disk:
+ *
+ *		- xe/wipplat_guc_<major>.<minor>.<patch>.bin
+ *		- xe/wipplat_huc_<major>.<minor>.<patch>.bin
+ *
+ *	   <major> and <minor> are checked that they match the version inside
+ *	   the blob. Both of them need to match exactly what the driver is
+ *	   expecting, otherwise it fails.
+ *
+ *	3) Platform officially supported by xe and out of force-probe. Using
+ *	   "plat" as a short-name. Except for the different directory, the
+ *	   behavior is the same as (1). Driver loads the following firmware
+ *	   blobs from disk:
+ *
+ *		- xe/plat_guc_<major>.bin
+ *		- xe/plat_huc.bin
+ *
+ *	   <major> number for GuC is checked that it matches the version inside
+ *	   the blob. <minor> version is checked and if smaller than the expected
+ *	   an info message is emitted about that.
+ *
+ * For the platforms already released with a major version, they should never be
+ * removed from the table. Instead new entries with newer versions may be added
+ * before them, so they take precedence.
+ *
+ * TODO: Currently there's no fallback on major version. That's because xe
+ * driver only supports the one major version of each firmware in the table.
+ * This needs to be fixed when the major version of GuC is updated.
