Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] drm/radeon: Read the VRAM VBIOS signature with readb()
Date: Sun, 27 Sep 2026 16:55:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260927145505.16883-2-kaloz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260927145505.16883-1-kaloz@kernel.org>

igp_read_bios_from_vram() checked bios[0]/bios[1] with a plain
__iomem load, which faults on sparc64 before the copy runs at all.
radeon_read_bios() already reads its two signature bytes with
readb() ahead of its own copy; use the same accessor here, keeping
the check before the allocation.

Fixes: b442962a9e82 ("drm/radeon/kms: add support for "Surround View"")
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Signed-off-by: Imre Kaloz <kaloz@kernel.org>
---
Changes in v2:
- Read the signature with readb() before the allocation instead of
  checking the RAM copy, as radeon_read_bios() does.
