Look for RAVEN per https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/amd/cores/raven_ridge According to kms-drm repository earliest support appears in Linux 4.13 while drm-fbsd12.0-kmod is based on Linux 4.16 code. > The DRM in the subject builds and installs fine; but using the > recommendations for loading via rc.conf amdgpu.ko (and yes, I have > tried using sysconS and not syconF via loader.conf...no help there) > does not work....it's the usual black screen, unresponsive > keyboard, with eventual failure of the machine and a hang requiring > a mechanical re-start. Maybe check https://github.com/FreeBSDDesktop/kms-drm/issues?q=raven for common quirks. I don't use AMD GPUs, so can't help further.
