Bug 109229

Can you try to bisect the commit where things chnages between 18.2 and 18.3?

This issue seems to be affecting me too, some people say it's been fixed in 18.2.3/.4 however I'm running 18.3.1 and definitely have the same symptoms in regards to Godot freezing up, I don't know much so can't be more help, there seems to be some discussion relating to the issue here though:

Are you sure that is the same bug? That one wasn't a Mesa bug it was a bug in GCC.

uh yeah sorry, I think that might be right, the symptoms are all very similar and the versions so close it's getting a little confusing for me to figure it all out to be honest

Well I have no idea how to use Godot and couldn't follow the instructions in the linked bug reports. So can someone attach a sample project here and instructions to trigger this problem with it? Thanks.

Hi Tim, sorry about the slow reply.

I've added instructions on how to reproduce the problem here:
https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/24783#issuecomment-453380560

Download build.zip and it has everything you need in there.


How would I go about bisecting the changes between 18.2 and 18.3 where things went awry?

Created attachment 143144 [details]
apitrace of godot including glLinkProgram lock up

I don't know how useful this is in this situation and I haven't done it before now but I've managed to get an apitrace of it happening inside of Godot, happening around frame 540 or 541 when I enable emission on a material (though the freeze happens on any shader change if it's changing for the first time on that build of Godot), hopefully this can help in some way

Just for clarification I am running 18.3.1 on Arch too

Thanks for the extra info and sorry for delay in looking at this.

    glsl: use remap location when serialising uniform program resource data
    
    This allows us to avoid expensive string compares since we already have
    a map to the pointers.
    
    These compares were taking ~30 seconds for a single shader compile
    in Godot due to it using 64,000+ uniforms.
    
    Fixes: c4cff5f40254 ("glsl: add basic support for resource list to shader cache")

Not the poster of this bug but a couple of us have tested this and indeed Godot appears to be running fine now, thank you very much
