Wedged GPU

I get the following at boot:
[Drm:i915_gem_init] Failed to initialize GPU, declaring it wedged.

This happens consistently after recent PKG upgrade to drm-kmod. This was not a problem with earlier version.

11.3-Release p0

This is a T440p Thinkpad (Haswell)

I had also upgraded to 11.3 recently. Rolled back to 11.2-RELEASEp9 and all is well.

Something is broken on the 11.3 side of the fence.
 
I upgraded to 11.2-RELEASEp11 and then to 12.0-RELEASEp7. Both work.

One odd thing is - if I load i915kms from /boot/loader.conf instead of /etc/rc.conf - the X server crashes.
 
Note that the package repositories will still install packages built for 11.2. So kernel modules will have been built for the wrong version, and thus fail to load.

You can change the package URL slightly to get packages specifically built for 11.3:
Code: 
url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/release_3",

I did a pkg-static update after the freebsd-update install. That downloaded a new PKG version and updated a ton of my packages.
 
Both latest and quarterly contain packages built for 11.2 because that's the lowest, still supported, version.
