Graphics/GPU

Systems using Skylake, Broxton, or newer Intel graphics will need additional firmware[1] from sys-kernel/linux-firmware package or directly download blobs from: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/i915

DMC firmware

Display Microcontroller firmware provides support for advanced graphics low-power idle states.

GuC/HuC firmware

Graphics µController firmware offloads functions from the host driver. HEVC/H.265 µController firmware improves hardware acceleration of media decoding.
