Description Dan Čermák 2019-03-19 10:58:21 UTC 
Yesterday I updated to kernel 5.0.1 (and 5.0.2 and 5.1 rc1, the former two from openSUSE Tumbleweed and the later from git) and my Dell Precision 5530's internal display stopped working with these kernels.

The machine boots fine, but at some point during the boot process, the laptop display turns off and starts flickering (the backlight turns very briefly on and off again). The system gets up and running, so I can ssh into it, I just don't see anything on the Laptop display. Please note, I don't boot into X, just into a tty, so I cannot attach an X.org log.

I have tried the following:

- Attaching an external monitor via HDMI works, i.e. the external monitor turns on and displays my tty. I can even startx there, but the X server is completely unresponsive and does not start any applications. The logs are unfortunately completely normal.

- Booting a 5.0.x kernel with nomodoset works and I get to see the tty on the laptop display (unsurprisingly X does not start here).

- The system logs show absolutely nothing beside the following lines:
Mar 19 10:28:42 Boreas kernel: iTCO_wdt: Intel TCO WatchDog Timer Driver v1.11
Mar 19 10:28:42 Boreas kernel: iTCO_wdt iTCO_wdt: can't request region for resource [mem 0x00c5fffc-0x00c5ffff]
Mar 19 10:28:42 Boreas kernel: iTCO_wdt: probe of iTCO_wdt failed with error -16


This led me to git bisect the kernel between the tags 4.20 and 5.0. I have used the SUSE .config file and if changes were necessary, I have used the default values. The result of the bisect is commit 7769db5883841b03de544a35a71ff528d4131c17

Unfortunately, that is part of a big patch chain of the i915 subsystem, so I cannot easily revert it on top of v5.0.

For reference, I have originally reported this on the opensuse-factory mailinglist: https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2019-03/msg00222.html


Cheers,

Dan
Comment 1 Lakshmi 2019-03-20 08:42:08 UTC 
Dan, can you please attach dmesg from kernel 5.1 RC1 from boot with kernel parameters drm.debug=0x1e log_buf_len=4M?

Hi Lakshmi,

I have attached the requested log.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Just a quick note: the vbt is independent of the kernel version or options.
Comment 8 Jason Antman 2019-03-26 01:59:29 UTC 
Given the hardware model and identical symptoms, I'm pretty sure this is a duplicate of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109959

There's a kernel patch attached to that bug which fixes it for everyone who's verified so far.

The latest patch posted there indeed solves the problems for me.

Should this bug then be closed?
Comment 10 Dan Čermák 2019-04-15 21:25:33 UTC 
I'm going to close this bug as https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109959 fixes the problem for me and has made its way into upstream.
