vainfo error

Hi,

When I run vainfo I get this error:

libva info: VA-API version 1.4.1
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns -1
libva info: User requested driver 'iHD'
libva info: Trying to open /opt/intel/mediasdk/lib64/iHD_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_4
DRM_IOCTL_I915_GEM_APERTURE failed: Invalid argument
Assuming 131072kB available aperture size.
May lead to reduced performance or incorrect rendering.
get chip id failed: -1 [22]

libva error: /opt/intel/mediasdk/lib64/iHD_drv_video.so init failed
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 1
vaInitialize failed with error code 1 (operation failed),exit

 

I don't find the /dev/dri/ directory.

I think that I don't have a driver for your iGPU or it is broken.

When I run  "lscpu" command, I get this:

Hi Alon,

Could you give me more information?

Which Linux version, which Media SDK version?

No, /dev/dri is not the driver directory, it should be /opt/intel/mediasdk/lib64/iHD_drv_video.so, could you confirm if this file exists?

From error message, it looks like UMD or KMD issue, or environment issue.

Mark
