This causes update-initramfs to generate "Possible missing firmware" warnings. Fix: Since the firmware is not available, all we can do is remove the files from modinfo. Test Case: Confirm that update-initramfs no longer produces the warnings. Regression Potential: Low. If someone had managed to obtain these files they will no longer be added to the initramfs, potentially causing regressions for these users. This would be an atypical situation. --- Ubuntu 20.04 during initramfs update reports missing firmware files: W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/amdgpu/navi12_vcn.bin for module amdgpu W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/amdgpu/arcturus_vcn.bin for module amdgpu W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/amdgpu/navi12_smc.bin for module amdgpu W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/amdgpu/arcturus_smc.bin for module amdgpu Kernel: 5.4.0-24-generic linux-firmware: 1.187 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1873325/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
