Re: amdgpu on Ryzen 4700 w. Vega10 Renoir Graphics

Hi all,

I know I'm top-posting (this note) AND cross-posting - please bear(sp?)
with me, I think I'm somewhat justified:

@Niclas,
I followed your instructions; when I try to build gpu-firmware-kmod, here's
what I get:

ports/graphics/gpu-firmware-kmod:16:33:50 $ pwd
/usr/ports/graphics/gpu-firmware-kmod
ports/graphics/gpu-firmware-kmod:16:33:51 $ make
make: "/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk" line 2096: warning: String comparison
operator should be either == or !=
make: "/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk" line 2096: Malformed conditional
(defined(MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER_LIMIT) && ( ${MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER_LIMIT} <
${_MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER} ))
make: Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
make: stopped in /usr/ports/graphics/gpu-firmware-kmod

@ports:
I found
https://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=51789+0+current/freebsd-ports
(which points to contrib/bmake svn commit: r363031). I 'git clone'd
/usr/src this morning (European time) and find "reverted r363031" in the
logs, so I would have assumed this is fixed ... though perhaps not in a way
I can make use of. Doing "sudo ./boot-strap" in contrib/bmake didn't help
(I don't know whether it should have .. it seemed the next logical step).

so, in short, what can I do to get back to building ports?

TIA
Michael
