kernel log with the backtrace

I have tested recent branches drm-radeon-testing (last commit 7a1ffce50373c177d3f6eecce52badc40c90e1dd) and drm-next (last commit 9e51159c14c29ebd485a45ba56f148e180d62c29) from http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6.git.  These branches contain patches for enabling unmappable VRAM. However, soon after booting I am getting a GPU lockup and corrupted console and X.

My hardware is laptop ASUS M50SA with 4GB system memory, and graphics 1GB
Mobility Radeon HD 3650.

I am attaching the kernel output with the backtrace and lspci -v output.

To be more precise, I bisected the commit introducing the problem.  It is 6b8b1786a8c29ce6e32298b93ac8d4a18a2b11c4 (drm/radeon/kms: enable use of unmappable VRAM V2). Before it everything works fine.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 27822 ***
Comment 4 Grzegorz Kowal 2010-05-07 08:35:57 UTC
I am reopening the bug since the patch included in bug 27822 does not resolve my problem.

I have tested once again the recent branch drm-next with the last commit "drm/ttm: fix, avoid iomapping system memory" (9e51159c14c29ebd485a45ba56f148e180d62c29) and the problem remains.

I am attaching dmesg output from this as well.

Can you describe what you are doing when it lockup (where you using firefox on heavy website with lot of picture ? ...)

Also please try with reverting :
6b8b1786a8c29ce6e32298b93ac8d4a18a2b11c4

and report if it helps

Basically, I am just booting the kernel.  The screen is corrupted since the initialization of the KMS (bounch of white dots on black background, it looks like each line is shifted horizontally).  When I log in using ssh, however, everything seems to work fine.

Once I start the X server I am getting the soft lockup.  The screen flickers a few times, the server seems to restart ending with the distorted image of kdm background.  I can post the images if necessary.

After reverting 6b8b1786a8c29ce6e32298b93ac8d4a18a2b11c4 everything works fine.  There is no screen corruption after the KMS initialization and the X server works fine.  Obviously, the amount of accessible VRAM is reduced from 1024MB to 256MB then.
Comment 8 Jerome Glisse 2010-05-10 06:51:33 UTC
Please attach full dmesg
Comment 9 Jerome Glisse 2010-05-10 06:51:51 UTC
Full dmesg without the revert.

Full dmesg with the revert.

I have not noticed that my dmesg was not full (kernel log size was too small).

I am submitting two full dmesg outputs for the recent drm-radeon-testing branch: one without any modifications (bad) and the second with the reverted commit 6b8b1786 (good).

Jerome, let me know if you need anything else in order to diagnose this problem.

Thanks!
