Hi All,

Not really related to this discussion about vpu fw but I also faced an
issue with an imx8mq board and the SDMA firmware.

# dmesg | grep sdma
[    0.178729] imx-sdma 302c0000.sdma: Direct firmware load for
imx/sdma/sdma-imx7d.bin failed with error -2
[    0.178763] imx-sdma 302c0000.sdma: Falling back to sysfs fallback
for: imx/sdma/sdma-imx7d.bin
[   60.381850] imx-sdma 302c0000.sdma: external firmware not found,
using ROM firmware
[   60.389889] imx-sdma 30bd0000.sdma: external firmware not found,
using ROM firmware
# ls /lib/firmware/imx/sdma/^C
# find / -name sdma-imx7d.bin
/lib/firmware/imx/sdma/sdma-imx7d.bin

Has anyone an idea what is going wrong?

Thank you
