If the ring tests fail and for some reason the IPs (e.g., gfx or sdma) are not available, the driver disables acceleration and basically falls back to modesetting only. > Is there a situation where accel is disabled and HSA should work ? e.g. > headless > mode ? No. We only disable acceleration if we can't get the IPs (gfx, sdma) initialized. Headless has nothing to do with acceleration in this context. Alex
