SRU: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2021-May/120603.html (oem-5.10) PPA: https://launchpad.net/~oem-solutions-group/+archive/ubuntu/intel-ipu6 (version 5.10.0-2027.28+lp1929157.1.remove.tpg)
** Description changed: + [SRU Justification] + + [Impact] + + Intel IPU6 camera driver includes a test pattern generator for early + stage development before hardware ready. This driver exposes additional + device nodes up to 24 of them as video devices. While Microsoft Teams, + and maybe other video/camera apps as well, tries to locate a suitable + device one by one, this may take up to minutes before returning to a + usable state. + + [Fix] + + Intel resolved this by removing TPG in their kernel driver release + Release_20210520 + (https://github.com/intel/ipu6-drivers/commit/362375c928d184fb0b4187df7da1ffd506bbd07f). + + [Test Case] + + Before this patch, there are 25 video devices on the testing platform. + One additional is created by v4l2loopback. By removing TPG as this + change does, the remaining video devices should be two exactly: + + $ ls -al /dev/video* + crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 0 May 25 02:08 /dev/video0 + crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 1 May 25 02:08 /dev/video1 + + [Where problems could occur] + + On this platform TPG is never used after hardware being enabled. So it's + probably pretty safe to remove them. + + [Other Info] + + While Intel IPU6 driver is currently for oem-5.10 only and there is plan + for newer kernels at the moment, only oem-5.10 is nominated. + + ========== original bug description ========== + Both of snap and deb of Microsoft Teams apps take minutes to probe all video device nodes before starting up on Intel IPU6 camera platforms. It's rooted in the extra video devices created for IPU6 TPG (test pattern generator), and Intel resolved this by removing TPG in their kernel driver release Release_20210520 (https://github.com/intel/ipu6-drivers/commit/362375c928d184fb0b4187df7da1ffd506bbd07f). - --- + --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.17 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: - USER PID ACCESS COMMAND - /dev/snd/controlC0: u 2219 F.... pulseaudio + USER PID ACCESS COMMAND + /dev/snd/controlC0: u 2219 F.... pulseaudio CasperMD5CheckResult: skip DistributionChannelDescriptor: - # This is the distribution channel descriptor for the OEM CDs - # For more information see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributionChannelDescriptor - canonical-oem-somerville-focal-amd64-20200502-85+fossa-mewtwo+X82 + # This is the distribution channel descriptor for the OEM CDs + # For more information see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributionChannelDescriptor + canonical-oem-somerville-focal-amd64-20200502-85+fossa-mewtwo+X82 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-05-21 (4 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 "Focal" - Build amd64 LIVE Binary 20200502-05:58 MachineType: Dell Inc.
