eGPU not initializing
Tested on a darp6 (customer experiencing the same issue on a galp4.) When we plug in an NVIDIA GPU in the Akitio Node, we do see it listed in lspci:
system76@pop-os:~$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 9b41 (rev 02)
06:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP108 [GeForce GT 1030] (rev a1)
However, nvidia-smi does not see the GPU, and we are not able to load the NVIDIA driver:
system76@pop-os:~$ nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
system76@pop-os:~$ sudo modprobe nvidia
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia': No such device
dmesg shows this output continuously repeated while the GPU is connected:
[ 251.993332] nvidia-nvlink: Nvlink Core is being initialized, major device number 237
[ 251.993840] NVRM: This PCI I/O region assigned to your NVIDIA device is invalid:

From new logs from a Razer Core X Chroma with a Sapphire Radeon Nitro+ RX 590 8GB GPU it may be dealing with the same issue:

So I'm the customer with galp4. I was able to get the eGPU working with a Thinkpad and Lubuntu on an USB. Other than hardware change, the BIOS had a configuration part for thunderbolt 3. I disabled it's security and allowed pre OS support for the port. I think coreboot is either blocking the thunderbolt 3 connection due to security or most likely unable to support it in preboot environment since it's pretty new and coreboot BIOS environment only lets me choose boot options
I am the user of the Razer Core X Chroma and AMD RX 590. Like 0-alex-0, I was able to use the same hardware with a Dell XPS 13 running the same Kubuntu version. I had to go into the BIOS settings and change the Thunderbolt security settings before it worked.
I've had no luck on a darp6 with coreboot also. I've tried with PopOS 19.10, Ubuntu 18.04, and Ubuntu 19.10. The eGPU (purchased specifically to use with this laptop) is a Sonnet eGFX Breakaway Box 550, containing a MSI GAMING GeForce RTX 2070 8GB (it's been tested plugged into a Windows laptop, and it worked). When I plug it in to the Darter Pro, it spins up, and I'm asked to authorize the TB3 device. When I do, the fans spin down to normal levels as expected. It shows the name of the eGPU box. But it doesn't work, and I get the following in dmesg:

Note: I previously tried installing Nvidia drivers, blacklisting nouveau etc, and the only effects I managed to get were an unbootable system -- couldn't get past the login screen anymore (tried reversing installation of the drivers via recovery, but no luck). That's how I ended up switching from PopOS to Ubuntu. But same issue on both.
Edit: here's the output of lspci | grep VGA:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 9b41 (rev 02)
06:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU106 [GeForce RTX 2070 Rev. A] (rev a1)
I was happy my new laptop would be using open source firmware, but this is preventing me from using the eGPU for the work I need to use it for, so at this point I'd very readily flash a standard BIOS on here if it got the eGPU working. Is that a possibility? And is this issue still being looked into?
I realized I hadn't installed system76-driver after installing Ubuntu 19.10. I did so, and also installed system76-driver-nvidia. I still get the same behavior, but dmesg now gives what looks to be the same output as in the original report (as for nvidia-smi and sudo modprobe nvidia, as well):

New firmware will be released within the next week that will allow using NVIDIA GPUs for CUDA and PCIE passthrough. Thunderbolt security is enabled by default and this makes using NVIDIA GPUs for graphics require custom configuration because the graphics stack loads before boltd authorizes the eGPU.
Does this disable Thunderbolt security, and make me more vulnerable to untrusted thunderbolt devices? Or do we get configuration options available in coreboot?

The only available option is to have Thunderbolt security enabled. The fix was to increase hotplug memory for the Thunderbolt bridge and should not be specific to NVIDIA, but the test was to ensure that the RTX 2080 Ti would be correctly initialized by the NVIDIA driver.
Apologies for not understanding the response, but it sounds like thunderbolt security will remain securely the same, however a lower level change to hotplug memory will solve this issue, right? Thanks again by the way! On January 16, 2020 6:51:17 PM Jeremy Soller [email protected] wrote:

Hi, Can someone tell me what specific egpu model would work now that I've updated my BIOS on the Darter Pro?
Thanks, Ron
I have updated the firmware of my coreboot Galago Pro, and cannot get my AMD RX 5700xt in my Sonnet 650 egpu working still. I can add logs if needed, or if you prefer to continue troubleshooting only with support.
I have Darter Pro (darp6) with Sonnet 650 and tested with borrowed AMD R9 290X. I've ordered AMD RX 5700XT now, we'll see how it works.
I also popped in another hard drive and installed Windows 10, and installed the drivers and rebooted. The device in device manager came up with a code 12 leading me to believe that there could still be another issue with the firmware.
I swapped out the GPU to an AMD rx560 and it also gives me a code 12 error saying there are not enough resources on the device. I do some web programming for my main job, so if you think this type of problem is something I could contribute to, please feel free to let me know where to start. I really believe in the idea of coreboot, and want to see coreboot achieve the same functionality of the out of box BIOS the device originally had.
I'm sorry if I'm asking a stupid question, but did you also test eGPU with different laptop? Perhaps that's what's broken.
Not a stupid question at all! Unfortunately, this laptop was my first with eGPU capability, so I do not currently have another to test with. I guess this is why being a trailblazer is so difficult. I will have to see if I can get ahold of another one to use to help troubleshoot this, but it will be a while I imagine.
We have AMD RX 5700XT's to test with, I will try it as well. The fix was to increase the amount of hotplug memory reserved for the Thunderbolt bridge and I found the amount required to run the RTX 2080 Ti, but perhaps AMD GPUs need even more hotplug memory reserved.
We expect to fully support all modern GPUs over Thunderbolt with coreboot.
I have changed the title to remove NVIDIA since that portion is solved. We do not need any customers to investigate AMD graphics card issues as we will investigate them internally.
Answering on a Sunday? Wow! Thank you for your dedication! I just figured I would offer to help, because this is a public project with positive implications for personal freedom on an end user's device.
My radeon 5700xt arrived today and indeed it doesn't work. You guys mentioned you'll test it as well, so I'll just wait.
Actually never mind, loading amdgpu driver with vm_update_mode=3 fixed the issue :)
