Thanks for the quick response. I compiled 6.18.9 with this patch
(without reverting the previous commit) and it boots successfully.

Cheers,
Denis


Well, I missed all those replies to this thread, and sent a redundant reply
saying .. well, the same as Thorsten (hey, thanks for being faster than me!).


Happy to see further confirmation that the patch that we both mentioned is
actually fixing the issue.

Cheers!
Angelo

I found this email chain while troubleshooting why my Levovo Duet
(with the MT8183 chip) would not boot using any 6.18.* kernel.

I can confirm that on my device the current stable 6.18.8 does not
boot unless I revert the commit

arm64: dts: mediatek: mt8183: Migrate to display controller OF graph

mentioned below. With the reverted commit the device boots as intended.

There is a fix for it from Otto here that I guess should help
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260106-mt8183-display-graph-v2-1-e7e56054eef5@xxxxxxxxx/

Side note: lacks a stable tag and maybe should have been merged this
cycle instead of the next. But given that 6.19 is immanent it might be
good if this could be backported to 6.19.y once it landed in mainline.

PS: Apologies for the potential double-mail.
No worries, happens.

Ciao, Thortsten
