Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 6/8] drm/panthor: Support GLB_REQ.STATE field for Mali-G1 GPUs
Hi Karunika,
Booting v6.19-rc1 on rk3588-rock-5b succeeds, but the kernel log shows a
panthor firmware load failure followed by a NULL pointer dereference in
panthor_fw_halt_mcu() during probe. The driver fails to load
arm/mali/arch10.8/mali_csffw.bin with -ENOENT.
A git bisect identified the first bad commit as:
51407254986501b19681d55531963f1ea58e89cd
