Bug Description
Dear all,
Module i915.ko is asking for the firmware file:
i915/tgl_
Date: 2020-08-13
Description: i915: Add HuC firwmare v7.5.0 for TGL
But the module i915 should also ask for :
i915/tgl_
Date: 2021-06-29
Description: firmware/i915/guc: Add HuC v7.9.3 for TGL & DG1
i915/tgl_
Date: 2021-07-28
Description: i915: Add v2.12 DMC for TGL
i915/tgl_
Date: 2021-06-29
Description: firmware/i915/guc: Add GuC v62.0.0 for all platforms
or at least (this 8 month old firmware):
i915/tgl_
Date: 2020-11-24
Description: i915: Add GuC firmware v49.0.1 for all platforms
This requirement will fix some bugs and improve stability on our hardware using Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS.
FYI: I cannot appreciate myself, if this is a security vulnerability or not.
Cheers
