Bug 103718

Only seen once so far (I think at least), it looks to be a kernel leak. At the moment, the obvious thing to do is a run with kmemleak, but my initial guess is that it's a result of early fail not cleaning up properly. The modules allocations (such as drm_mm, kmem_cache etc) are checked upon module unload (and kselftest) but no warning seen, hence the search for something a little more unusual.

This incomplete is pretty frequent on APL, but due to ftrace messing up pstore and the recent 4.15.0-rc1 fire, we'll have to wait and see if we can get any reasonable data on this.

doesn't have the any oom stuff, so I change the title and file all igt@drv_selftest@live_gtt on this bug.

run.log doesn't hint at timeout or softdog so system hang is assumed.

this is last dmesg:

The dmesg snippet is wrong, it is from this GLK-shards run:
https://intel-gfx-ci.01.org/tree/drm-tip/CI_DRM_3415/shard-glkb4/igt@drv_selftest@live_gtt.html

The last APL dmesgs are:

<6>[ 1664.028427] perf: interrupt took too long (2503 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 79000

to clarify my previous mess:
Here are 2 new occurrences of this issue, both looks like system hangs.

https://intel-gfx-ci.01.org/tree/drm-tip/CI_DRM_3415/shard-apl6/igt@drv_selftest@live_gtt.html
https://intel-gfx-ci.01.org/tree/drm-tip/CI_DRM_3415/shard-glkb4/igt@drv_selftest@live_gtt.html

I think this explains this failure, and it should also prevent the sanitycheck incompletes.

    igt/drv_selftests: Disable initialising the display
    
    Many of the selftests try to completely fill global resources; resources
    that are presumed available for bringing up the display. Avoid the
    contention by simply not bringing up the display!
    
    This does limit the effectiveness of selftesting to GEM for the
    time being. To exercise KMS from selftests we would essentially have to
    always mock the displays.
