GuC / HuC not loading
Hi everyone!
I've been trying to get GuC and HuC firmware loaded on my i7-5600U CPU (HD5500 GPU) for days with no success. Here's what I've done:
EarlyKMS is activateds according to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ke … _KMS_start
$ cat /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
# vim:set ft=sh
# MODULES
# The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
# run. Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
# in this array. For instance:
# MODULES=(piix ide_disk reiserfs)
MODULES=(i915)
# BINARIES
# This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
# wish into the CPIO image. This is run last, so it may be used to
# override the actual binaries included by a given hook
# BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
BINARIES=()
# FILES
# This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
# as-is and are not parsed in any way. This is useful for config files.
FILES=()
# HOOKS
# This is the most important setting in this file. The HOOKS control the
# modules and scripts added to the image, and what happens at boot time.
# Order is important, and it is recommended that you do not change the
# order in which HOOKS are added. Run 'mkinitcpio -H <hook name>' for
# help on a given hook.
# 'base' is _required_ unless you know precisely what you are doing.
# 'udev' is _required_ in order to automatically load modules
# 'filesystems' is _required_ unless you specify your fs modules in MODULES
# Examples:
## This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above.
## No raid, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed.
# HOOKS=(base)
#
## This setup will autodetect all modules for your system and should
## work as a sane default
# HOOKS=(base udev autodetect block filesystems)
#
## This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems.
## No autodetection is done.
# HOOKS=(base udev block filesystems)
#
## This setup assembles a pata mdadm array with an encrypted root FS.
## Note: See 'mkinitcpio -H mdadm' for more information on raid devices.
# HOOKS=(base udev block mdadm encrypt filesystems)
#
## This setup loads an lvm2 volume group on a usb device.
# HOOKS=(base udev block lvm2 filesystems)
#
## NOTE: If you have /usr on a separate partition, you MUST include the
# usr, fsck and shutdown hooks.
HOOKS=(base udev autodetect modconf block filesystems keyboard fsck)
# COMPRESSION
# Use this to compress the initramfs image. By default, gzip compression
# is used. Use 'cat' to create an uncompressed image.
#COMPRESSION="gzip"
#COMPRESSION="bzip2"
#COMPRESSION="lzma"
#COMPRESSION="xz"
#COMPRESSION="lzop"
#COMPRESSION="lz4"
# COMPRESSION_OPTIONS
# Additional options for the compressor
#COMPRESSION_OPTIONS=()GuC firmware-loading ist activated according to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/in … re_loading
cat /etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf
options i915 enable_guc=2GuC and HuC firmware is installed and present on system:

yelp 3.32.1-1*EDIT*
This is the output of systool – interestingly, it tells me "enable_guc" is "0", although i have "enable_guc=2" set in /etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf (see above).

Re: GuC / HuC not loading
As far as I know, if you are doing an early load and want your /etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf to be honored, you'd have to add that to your initramfs as well: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mk … _and_FILES

Re: GuC / HuC not loading
Your case may be different, but I've found I have to pass "enable_guc=-1" in order to get both GuC/HuC to load successfully.

Thank you for the suggestions! I actually tried that – with no success. I also edited the kernel parameters in GRUB to "guc_enable=2" with no success.

Thank! I tried the following kernel parameters – all with no success:
guc_enable=2
guc_enable=3
guc_enable=-1Offline

Re: GuC / HuC not loading
FWIW, on rereading, why do you think your CPU/GPU is eligible for any of these? None of the firmwares you have specifically mention Broadwell and a bit of googling suggests these are only available for Skylake+
And even the wiki page mentions that in the first sentence of the sub heading, I'm noticing.

Wow, what a beginner's mistake. Thanks. I thought my Broadwell CPU was actually newer than Skylake. In fact, Broadwell is Gen 8, while Skylake is Gen 9 (see: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Intel#Feature_support). There is no GuC/HuC firmware for me. Thanks and sorry.
