I am testing FreeBSD on a Dell Latitude M4800 with an AMD FirePro M5100 mxm video card. On a clean install, I install drm-next-kmod from ports, then add kld_list="amdgpu" to the /etc/rc.conf. On reboot, the system freezes during the driver loading, and I have to physically power off the system and boot into single user mode to disable the driver and recover.
I have tried this in 11.2 and 12.0 Beta1. I have tried drm-stable-kmod as well. I have tried this in both UEFI and legacy boot modes, but it happens the same each time. If I load the i915 driver, that loads without issue.
I run "pciconf –lv | grep display –B 3 –A" and get the following result:
Vgapci1 at pci0:0:2:0: Class=0x030000 card=0x05cc1028 chip=0x04168086 rev=0x06 hdr=0x00
Vendor = ‘Intel Corporation’
Device = ‘4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller’
Class = display
Subclass = VGA

Vgapci0 at pci0:1:0:0: class-0x030000 card=0x05cc1028 chip=0x68211002 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
Vendor = ‘Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI]’
Device = ‘Venus XT [Radeon HD 8870M / R9 M270X/M370X]’
Class = display
Subclass = VGA
I do see an error during boot, but otherwise seems to be ok:
Radeon/verde_me.bin: could not load firmware image, error 2
Radeon/verde_me.bin: could not load firmware image, error 2
Radeon/verde_ce.bin: could not load firmware image, error 2
Radeon/verde_ce.bin: could not load firmware image, error 2
Radeon/verde_rlc.bin: could not load firmware image, error 2
Radeon/verde_rlc.bin: could not load firmware image, error 2
My question is this: Is this particular card unsupported, or is there something I am missing?
