Gary, THANKS VERY MUCH! My problem is not yet solved, but I now see what 
a patch involves, and can repeat the procedure.  It make sense now. The 
ports are really shell directories anyway, with just a makefile & some 
description files. And you gave me the filename I  needed to copy to a 
thumbdrive, move it to the other computer and copy it to the ~/drm-kmod 
directory.


This is what I have now, after successfully installing (making) the 
drm-kmod port, writing kld-list="amdgpu" in /etc/rc.conf, and with or 
without the /boot/loader line hw.syscons.disable=1, it will reboot , so 
I installed xorg, rebooted and tried to run startx. It gives:


panic: vm_page_assert_busied: page (long##'s) not exculsive busy @ 
/usr/src/sys/vm/vmpage.c


etc...

Anyway, I have not wasted my time, and hopefully not anyone else's 
either, because I learned something useful. Thanks,


Clay

This is a patch to a file used in the port itself, not to the kernel
sources under /usr/src/sys.

This should be pretty clear from this line in the referenced link
to the posting in freebsd-current:
# cat files/patch-linuxkpi_gplv2_src_linux__page.c

In other words, the patch must be put in the files directory in
the port itself.

Excuse the spacing.

Anyway, I suspect I must have an updated version of linux_page.c but not 
sure. What I might do is go ahead and go to the 
/usr/ports/graphics/drm-kmod directory and make install clean, then load 
xorg and see what happens. I'm going to have a bite of super first.

Re: r353072 > r353427 > r353709

2019-10-19 Thread Clay Daniels Jr.
Thanks, Evilham. I had read the thread lightly and hope it was fixed. I am
not familiar with patching, and mostly just do pkg install, but I do on
occasion make install from ports.

Right now I am sitting at two computers.

On the new Ryzen 7 with a MSI x570 motherboard & a MSI RX570 graphics card,
I have the base install of 13.0 Current r353709, no drm-kmod or xorg, fresh
and ready. I'm down in /usr/ports/graphics looking at my choices...

On my trusty old 2014 HP Pavilion I have Ubuntu installed, and this is
where I am writing this email.

I looked the email thread, and at Mark Johnston's patch. I can copy it to a
thumbdrive, go to the freebsd  machine and try to install the patch, but I
have hopes I can just find what I need in the /usr/ports/graphics
collection.

When I did my failed pkg installations yesterday I saw that pkg install
drm-kmod installed 3 packages:
drm-kmod: g20190710
drm-currentkmod: 4.16.g20190927
gpu-firmware-kmod: g20191015

The gpu-firmware-kmod pkg may be my problem, as the other two did not
change. I just looked at Makefile on the gpu-firmware-kmod port and it is
still at 2019-10-15. I am patient, and will not rush into this.

r353072 > r353427 > r353709

2019-10-18 Thread Clay Daniels Jr.
r353072 from 4 Oct worked great!

r353427 from 11 Oct last week did not. It had some drm-kmod problems and I
quickly dumped it and reloaded r353072 as I was hot to work on a project of
my own. That only bought me a week, did not solve the problem.

r353709 of today 18 Oct has only gone down hill. I tried to load it a half
dozen times, gave up and then tried re-installing r353072 which was working
earlier today, but the problem is the drm-firmware-kmod is different this
week, and even it will not run xorg.

So right now I have installed the base r353709 from today, no xorg, and it
works fine as a console. I had similar problems in late Aug for a couple of
weeks until Greg & some others said to use hw.syscons.disable=1 in
/boot/loader.conf which worked fine until now. I have tried loading today's
snapshot both ways, with the loader.conf line & without.

My project does not require xorg, just console, so I will keep it, and can
save my work to files & thumbdrives, but it would be nice to have access to
the web. If anyone has any ideas, let me know.

My setup is a Ryzen 7/MSI X570 bios/motherboard using amdgpu.
