Yes, it is intended. Now, the kernel developers know the commit with the issue. Thanks a lot for testing!

Okay. Great! I did a check but didn't see any failed module load errors. :-D

I compiled the alpha6 of kernel 6.17 with the new Radeon patch today.

Please test.

It works! :-D

So I tested on Fienix. All looks good. Dmesg appears normal. I did notice this message about device nodes:

Code: Select all

[   13.196763] systemd[1]: Create List of Static Device Nodes was skipped because of an unmet condition check (ConditionFileNotEmpty=/lib/modules/6.17.0-a6-powerpc64-smp-g37816488247d-dirty/modules.devname).
Also the i2c-pasemi messages about NACK and resetting kept appearing. I'm typing this on Debian now with 6.15.0-powerpc64-smp. And the messages don't appear. So it would be with 6.16 and above by the looks of it. I would have posted when I noticed it.

P.S.:
Just checked. It was 6.15 alpha 5 I noticed. Need to check what that device is but the messages don't look good to me:

Okay looked it up and there appears to be an issue with reset of my SMBus:

I don’t have this message. Are the kernel modules loaded? Please check them with lsmod.

Thanks,

You're right. They weren't loaded. Somehow I missed copying the modules over. I haven't missed in a while. Thanks!

So there was a change. Excellent. That will help find it.
