Intel Xe Driver Adds Fan Speed Reporting For Linux 6.16, BMG Instability Being Debugged


Back in the Linux 6.12 kernel cycle the Intel i915 kernel graphics driver added fan speed reporting support

That Xe driver fan speed reporting support is the most notable change of this week's drm-xe-next pull request for DRM-Next. Among them some bad cases where the device is lost after 1 to 3 transitions from D3Cold to D0 on the runtime pm, with pcieport upstream bridge port link retrain failure. In other cases, it works fine, but with some sudden random memory corruptions after D3cold, that could be 0xffff missed ack on GT forcewake or GuC reload related failures.
