IMX6 X11 Vivante GPU acceleration Segmentation Fault

edward_fu — Tue, 03 Mar 2020 01:57:12 GMT

Hi,

I am currently facing issues when trying to start X11 with Vivante GPU acceleration. This is on a custom board, using the NXP imx_4.9.123_imx8mm_ga GA Linux Kernel. I am currently using yocto warrior version and meta-freescale layer is also warrior version :

Below is the Xorg log:

How to solve this issue ?

since you use imx6 board, why did you use imx_4.9.123_imx8mm_ga which is demo image for imx8MM board, did you try the image for imx6 boards?

Re: IMX6 X11 Vivante GPU acceleration Segmentation Fault

edward_fu — Tue, 03 Mar 2020 05:19:04 GMT

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I am using imx6 board.

Because I need to upgrade yocto version from pyro to warrior, and In Freescale github, the warrior version linux-imx recipe is as below:

I think it is OK because you can see COMPATIBLE_MACHINE = "(mx6|mx7|mx8)"

Re: IMX6 X11 Vivante GPU acceleration Segmentation Fault

joanxie — Thu, 05 Mar 2020 06:59:13 GMT

you can refer to the 4.9.123 release note, this release version is tested for imx8mm, we never test this version for imx6, I really suggest you to use another version we tested on imx6

Do 5.4 kernel solve this IPU issue?

And what's your suggestion aoubt using yocto warriror version on imx6?

Re: IMX6 X11 Vivante GPU acceleration Segmentation Fault

joanxie — Sat, 07 Mar 2020 10:42:33 GMT

we haven't released 5.4 kernel, try to uses 4.19.35(version 2.7 Warrior.) which has been tested on the imx6 board successfully:

Hi Joan,

In warrior meta-freescale layer GitHub - Freescale/meta-freescale: Layer containing NXP hardware support metadata

The recipes-kernel/linux directory contains the following files:

linux-fslc_5.0.bb

linux-fslc-imx-rt_4.1-2.0.x.bb

linux-imx_4.9.123.bb

linux-imx-mfgtool_4.9.123.bb

linux-qoriq_4.19.bb
linux-fslc-imx_4.9-1.0.x.bb

linux-fslc-lts-4.19.bb

linux-imx-headers_4.9.123.bb

linux-qoriq_4.14.bb

You mean I need to use linux-fslc-lts-4.19.bb? But in linux-fslc-lts-4.19.bb file kernel vesion is 4.19.78 not 4.19.35.

The content of linux-fslc-lts-4.19.bb is：

# Copyright (C) 2012-2019 O.S. Systems Software LTDA.

provide support for some backported features and fixes, or because it was applied in linux-next \

include linux-fslc.inc

LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://COPYING;md5=bbea815ee2795b2f4230826c0c6b8814"

So,

Does 4.19.78 support X11 on imx6 board?
As you suggested 4.19.35, which repository should I use still freescale official git hub(GitHub - Freescale/meta-freescale: Layer containing NXP hardware support metadata )?

Thanks
