Description Geir Ove Myhr 2009-11-29 19:55:41 UTC
Reporting on behalf of ubuntu user mistr, based on comments on Launchpad bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/446632

[Summary]
Blender crashes in GPU_state_init() on startup on a computer with Radeon Mobility 7500. The same is reported on Radeon Mobility 9000 (M9) and Radeon 9200 by other users. The crash is on line 1298 in recent blender SVN, which contains the call: 
glMatrixMode(GL_TEXTURE);

[How to reproduce]
Start blender. Crash reported on official 32bit releases of 2.48a, 2.49, 2.49a, Ubuntu version (2.49a), 2.50 alpha0 and SVN 24195.

A[ffected mesa versions]
Crashes with mesa 7.6.0 which is currently in Ubuntu Karmic, and also with 7.7.0~git20091125+mesa-7-7-branch.7fac8ce7-0ubuntu0tormod from the ubuntu xorg-edgers repository. Downgrading to the git snapshot 7.6.0~git20090817.7c422387 that Ubuntu carried until 7.6.0 was released stops the crashes. mistr has said he is willing to git-bisect between 7.6.0~git20090817.7c422387 and 7.6.0, but he has not done it before and needs to figure out the details for how to do it in practice.

Here is a backtrace obtained by Sami Pelkonen on T41 laptop with ATI Radeon Mobility 9000 (M9) Lf (AGP). Compiz disabled and glxgears also works.
Compiled Blender SVN version (24195) with debugging and it produces following backtrace in gdb:

Actually, the difference in the call trace is only because they were taken using different versions of blender. Thanks to Sami for pointing that out.
Comment 8 Michael Strecke 2009-12-01 04:06:24 UTC
A git-bisection against git://anongit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa shows that the problem starts with commit bfbad4fbb7420d3b5e8761c08d197574bfcd44b2.

This one does NOT cause blender to segfault. 
gdb reports that the "program exists with code 0352". 
Output from Blender on the console: "drmRadeonCmdBuffer: -22".

The next commit in line is 4322181e6a07ecb8891c2d1ada74fd48c996a8fc which makes blender segfault.

possible fix for r2xx

Does this patch help for the r2xx cards (9000,9200, etc.)?

I have built the current Ubuntu package (7.6.0 + some patches from 7.6.1) with this patch so that the users with r2xx cards may try it.

There is positive feedback in the Ubuntu bugtracker.

On my laptop however (the one that provided above logs) however, nothing has changed, because it uses the radeon driver.
Comment 12 Alex Deucher 2009-12-03 08:26:21 UTC
Pushed the r200 fix to 7.6 branch:
2b5618fc5bdcbee3434f8b5aa3a31eb06fb479c0

I assume the bisection in comment 8 applies to r1xx as well?

The laptop that I did the bisection on uses the "radeon" driver. That's at least what "driinfo drivers 0" tells me.

In the source tree is a subdirectory named "radeon" as well as "r200", "r300", ...

If I point LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH to something other than "radeon" (~/mesa/src/mesa/drivers/dri/radeon") the machine crashes when I start Blender. 

The patch only touched the "r200" subdir.

Yes, it was only done on r1xx, actually. Michael (mistr) has a ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500].
