Hi, I'm trying to use VAAPI for HEVC and h264 decode on a Devil's Canyon system running the latest 4.2.5 kernel running Arch Linux.
There is an NVIDIA GPU driving 3 monitors and doing some compute, and I'd like to simultaneously use Intel quicksync. The integrated GPU has no monitors connected to it, but as far as I can tell has kernel support, and the i915 module is loaded: $d mesg | grep i915 [ 6.869230] i915 0000:00:02.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0003) [ 6.937495] snd_hda_intel 0000:00:03.0: bound 0000:00:02.0 (ops i915_audio_component_bind_ops [i915]) [ 6.937499] [drm] Initialized i915 1.6.0 20150522 for 0000:00:02.0 on minor 0 [ 6.948090] i915 0000:00:02.0: No connectors reported connected with modes [ 6.948336] i915 0000:00:02.0: fb1: inteldrmfb frame buffer device [ 6.948338] i915 0000:00:02.0: registered panic notifier $ lsmod | grep i915 i915 1056768 2 drm_kms_helper 102400 1 i915 intel_gtt 20480 1 i915 i2c_algo_bit 16384 1 i915 drm 286720 7 i915,drm_kms_helper,nvidia video 32768 1 i915 button 16384 1 i915 When I attempt to check the vaapi capabilities of the Intel driver with vainfo, I get the following assertion: $ LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965 vainfo libva info: VA-API version 0.38.0 libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0 libva info: User requested driver 'i965' libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/dri/i965_drv_video.so libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_38 vainfo: intel_driver.c:100: intel_driver_init: Assertion `(((struct drm_state *)(ctx)->drm_state)->auth_type == (VA_DRM_AUTH_DRI1)) || (((struct drm_state *)(ctx)->drm_state)->auth_type == (VA_DRM_AUTH_DRI2)) || (((struct drm_state *)(ctx)->drm_state)->auth_type == (VA_DRM_AUTH_CUSTOM))' failed. zsh: abort (core dumped) LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965 vainfo My question is, is this a supported configuration? Do I need to reconfigure xorg, or connect the iGPU up to a screen? _______________________________________________ Libva mailing list Libva@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libva
