Do we know if all we need is a new kernel? Or are there other steps? Wonder if this would work on Fedora. I don't think anyone on the team has this camera would it would be great to figure this out.
I think the kernel is good, but the firmware is missing:
error -ENOENT: Requesting signed firmware intel/ipu/ipu6ep_fw.bin failed
There is a file that sounds like a firmware package for these types of cameras:
/sysroot/ostree/repo/refs/heads/rpmostree/pkg/ipu6-camera-bins-firmware
How can I check if it is installed, and what files it contains?
Hi,
For me, the installed file was intel/ipu6ep_fw.bin, but the module intel_ipu6 is looking into intel/ipu. Firmware are available at https://github.com/intel/ipu6-camera-bins
I not longer have that error, but the device is still not available for v4l2-ctl.
Thanks, that's a step forward! Here is a snippet for an easy copy-paste. Run as root:
rpm-ostree usroverlay
wget 'https://github.com/intel/ipu6-camera-bins/raw/main/lib/firmware/intel/ipu6ep_fw.bin' -O /usr/lib/firmware/intel/ipu/
rmmod intel-ipu6
modprobe intel-ipu6
Ok I've reopened the old issue in the main repo so we can centralize it, nice work and thank you for digging in!
Describe the bug
Dell Latitude 7440 is one of the laptop models that contain a webcam based on an Intel MIPI IPU6 subsystem. Proper drivers appeared in Linux 6.10, so are now available in
aurora-dx:latest
. However, while the device is being recognized, the firmware fails to load, and the webcam does not work.The relevant lines from system journal are as follows:
Indeed, the filesystem contains no files called
ipu6ep_fw.bin
:What did you expect to happen?
I expected the webcam to start working after switching to
:latest
with kernel 6.10.Output of
