{Solved - Ugly as Hell}Secret to Intel Icelake Sound

[ShadowHawkBV]

I just replaced my Dell XPS 13 with a HP Spectre x360(13"). The basic install went flawlessly, everything is working with one glaring exception. I cannot get the sound to work. No device is detected. I know that the sound chip is detected by dmesg | grep audio

[    4.525015] sof-audio-pci 0000:00:1f.3: error: sof_probe_work failed err: -2

So I assumed that this meant that I needed to install the package sys-firmware/sof-firmware ( I also installed sys-kernel/linux-firmware for the wifi)

So all of the modules are installed as determined by genkernel. Problem is, plasma detects no audio device. Is there some other firmware I need for this? Does something have to be done manually after the sof firmware was emerged? I would install the icelake SOC as a modules, but it's only option is either in kernel or not instyalled at all.

Here is my emerge --info if it will help.

Hi ShadowHawkBV,

Just a guess, if you haven't yet tried that:

I see in lsmod there are both drivers loaded: sof-audio-pci and snd-hda-intel. What if you blacklist one, loading only another (and then vice versa)?

[ShadowHawkBV]

Thanks for the suggestion halcon. Unfortunately it still doesn't want to play nice. Built the blacklist file in /etc/moprobe.d and tried adding blacklist <module> with no difference after restarting.

I've also manually removed all the pci and hda sound modules from the genkernel build, and tried using just the hda sound modules in the genkernel build. No luck either way.

I'm fairly certain that it involves the firmware from the Sound Open Firmware package (sys-firmware/sof-firmware), but I'll be danged if I can figure out what to do other than emerge the package. Honestly, that package may be a red-herring as the webpage indicates it's for developers using the icelake and other intel chipset sound systems.

Intel sound is rapidly becoming as big a pain in the ass as winmodems were back in the day. The worst part is, I know the sound works under linux as I based my purchase off a couple posts about someone using it with Fedora and with Arch.

Your dmesg log shows that there were no HDA codecs that could be loaded for your sound card. My system, a Lenovo ThinkBook 15-IIL with an Intel i7-1065G7, for sound to work, I need to have snd_hda_codec_realtek built as a module (linux's sound system is best built as modules). For the record I'm running sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-5.7.8 { USE= -build experimental -symlink}

Config help from nconfig:

Give that a shot, and your sound should work after that.

The hda-realtek module is in there along wioth all the other modules used by the working Fedora Live DVD (Who's config I shamelessly stole). I think I have narrowed the problem down to a rather irritating firmware not loading problem.

dmesg | grep -i error

Code: Select all

Seeing that sof-firmware placed the driver in /lib/firmware, and the error appears to be looking under /lib/firmware/intel/sof, I copied the two files there. No change in the error message. I have manally added the sof-icl-v1.4.2.ri to the kernel under Device-Drivers // Generic Driver Options // Firmware loader // "Build named firmware blobs into the kernel binary" and the root directory in "Firmware blobs root directory" All with no change to the error. Sof-firmware claims to be compatible with kernel 5.5 and newer. My google-fu has also failed me by not being able to locate the error I'm getting anywhere else on the web. The closest I got was a really old gentoo forum posting from teh 3.3 era kernel and iwiwifi firmware failing to load around the udev roll-out.

On a side note, i want to slap the person who decided to gratuitously rename the kernel modules with - and _ randomly replacing spaces. Even more fun is a combination of the two, which was why i couldn't find the modules initially. I was looking for snd_sof_intel_whatever, instead of snd-sof-intel_whatever...

[ShadowHawkBV]

And now I've confirmed that it's not a kernel 5.7 issue. I just built and installed a 5.4.51 kernel (Closest I could find to the Fedora 5.5 rc1 kernel on teh live DVD), and the same issue.

Anyone have any ideas how to get past the error -2 and -11? I don't want to have to install Fedora to get to usability.

I just built and installed a 5.4.51 kernel (Closest I could find to the Fedora 5.5 rc1 kernel on teh live DVD), and the same issue.

I don't want to have to install Fedora to get to usability.

What about such a desperate test as try to compile the closest to 5.5 rc1 gentoo-sources with Fedora's .config and to boot it?

- According to this announcement, 5.5.1 was released at 01 Feb 2020. So, in a week it could have come to the Gentoo tree. The portage snapshot on, say, 15 Feb 2020 could be installed, following the Update Old Gentoo Wiki.
- make oldconfig will (hopefully) add Gentoo-specific symbols that could be necessary for compiling.
- As there are different defaults in Gentoo and in Fedora (I guess), some other things may be broken (including your Plasma?), but it's just for testing sound (on init 3, in console).

Edit:
...If that topic about the firmware doesn't help.

As halcon suggested, I verified that the firmware options were turned on in the kernel. I assume that they all are working as my wifi is working with Intel wifi firmware. I also pulled the config file from the Fedora build, and used it as the .config for Gentoo. The only changes necessary were including the gcc modules, gentoo specific options, and changing the nvme drivers to being built in instead of modules to allow for booting.

I noticed a difference with the firmware. The Fedora firmware was larger, and had intel signed versions.

I'm at my wits end. It should be working, but the firmware is still erroring out.

[halcon]

@ShadowHawkBV, Isn't the culprit in wrong path??

I see in your dmesg attempts to load intel/sof/sof-icl.ri, which is good for Fedora, but in Gentoo, according to your listing, it's intel/sof-icl.ri.

[ShadowHawkBV]

@halcon,
That's a possibility, but as far as I can tell, unless you manually insert the firmware name into the kernel, it doesn't allow you to set a directory and defaults to /lib/firmware, and any sub-directories within. To be safe I've copied the files into all the directories in /lib/firmware (intel & intel/sof). I've also ensured that both name types for the files are there. One has the version (from the sof-firmware ebuild) appended, and the other mimics the Fedora style with no version appended.

I'm also building the 5.7.9 kernel to see if it was a glitch in the Gentoo-sources kernels I've tried so far.

Here is the config I'm using: https://pastebin.com/pYH49n1L
Here is the Fedora 32 kernel 5.7.8 config: https://pastebin.com/dDzPq5Av

[halcon]

but as far as I can tell, unless you manually insert the firmware name into the kernel, it doesn't allow you to set a directory and defaults to /lib/firmware, and any sub-directories within

Well, then, why not to try to set it manually? In CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE.

[ShadowHawkBV]

halcon,
I've added both of the firmware files individually, and together (sof-icl.ri & sof-icl.ldc) with and without the version appended into the kernel. Same errors.

Of note, here is the dmesg error with the Gentoo firmware intel folder.

There is a sof-hda-generic.tplg and a sof-hda-asrc-2ch.tplg but NO sof-hda-generic-2ch.tplg. So I'm now guessing that an error -2 means that the firmware to be inserted is not found. But if that is the case, why does it work with Fedora and not Gentoo. The folders are exactly the same when I copy them from the Fedora drive to the Gentoo drive, down to the soft-links.

It's hard...

In a similar bugreport for Ubuntu, people added to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf:

• options snd-hda-intel dsp_driver=1

or

• options snd-hda-intel dsp_driver=0

(requires reboot).

What if it helps.

I have sound. The fix is ugly as hell, and I'm unsure if it's a bug to be reported or not.

Turns out that error -2 seems to mean file not found. The firmware must have the same name as the dmesg, and must be in the exact same folder. There does not appear to be a way for the kernel to find the file in higher or lower directories. If it says /intel/sof, the file must be named as it wants (No version number appended), and in the /lib/firmware/intel/sof folder. So

Code: Select all

sof-audio-pci 0000:00:1f.3: Direct firmware load for intel/sof/sof-icl.ri failed with error -2

means that I had to

Code: Select all

$/lib/firmware sudo cp sof-icl-v1.4.2.ri intel/sof/sof-icl.ri && sudo cp sof-icl-v1.4.2.ldc intel/sof/sof-icl.ldc

Now comes the extremely ugly part. I'm not sure why, but Gentoo did not have the second firmware file required.

Code: Select all

sof-audio-pci 0000:00:1f.3: Direct firmware load for intel/sof-tplg/sof-hda-generic-2ch.tplg failed with error -2

Amusingly, the Fedora install also did not have a file with that name. The two closest versions in Fedora were:

Code: Select all

sof-hda-asrc-2ch.tplg & sof-hda-generic.tpl

So now the ugly as hell part. I copied sof-hda-generic.tplg to /lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg and renamed it to sof-hda-generic-2ch.tplg and it worked.

Thank you for all the assistance and ideas you folk gave me. In the end it was my own inability to read and parse what the system was telling me to do.

Yes, -2 is ENOENT: No such file or directory. Often, when the kernel gives you a negative error code, you can find its meaning by negating it and treating the positive version as an errno value.

For the first part, I suggest modifying the ebuild that provides these files to put them in the correct directories, so that copying is not needed. For the missing file, that is a harder problem. Ideally, you would find the exact file it wants, not just a similar file that happens to load.

[halcon]

ShadowHawkBV, I am glad that you resolved this issue! I think it's a big deal that you found that inconsistency in the firmware files. It would be worth reporting that as a bug, IMHO.

[ShadowHawkBV]

Here is the bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/733254

Thank you again for all the assistance and advice.

visit https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extr ... -firmware/
find "Package Actions" in the upper right corner of the page
select "Download From Mirror"
Find the download "sof-firmware-1.5.1-1-any.pkg.tar.zst"
Explore the downloaded archive and find "usr/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg-v1.5.1/sof-hda-generic-2ch.tplg" exists and arch linux would put it in /user/lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg-v1.5.1/
We have /lib/firmware/intel with no sof directory and no sof files if we have emerged linux-firmware which is provided upstream by kernel.org.

I've pushed sof-firmware-1.5.1 into the tree, which installs firmware in the right places.

But I still cannot get sound working on my HP Spectre x360 Convertible 13t-aw000/86FA.
