31 More AMDGPU DC/DAL Patches Enter The Queue

sigh the RX 480 I bought just for the DAL/DC features is getting close to a year old now. If I remember correctly, the original estimate for getting support merged was the end of that summer -.-

Hopefully we hear something official soon.

From my understanding, we haven't heard anything from AMD devs regarding a target release to merge. I don't think it's reasonable to expect 4.13, 4.14, or even 4.15. We also don't know if DC will be flat-out rejected like it was last time they attempted a merge since they've not yet had a request for comments in a long time from upstream.

Unfortunately, I am too dumb to package and build a kernel for Debian :-(

I still haven't been able to get surround with the amd-staging kernel. I haven't gotten around to filing a good bug report about it yet. It wasn't the only issue either, last time I tried it, the screen refresh seemed to get stuck.

The most frustrating aspect to me about lack of DC is no HDMI/DP audio on AMDGPU for recent Radeon GPUs.

This! Go, go, go, AMD
