Description Peter Kraus 2013-08-22 20:59:55 UTC
Hello,
hopefully this is the right place to report this stuff.

I've got a mildly annoying texture corruption/flicker happening in native Dota2 since recent update in mesa. Downgrading mesa fixes this.

Offending versions: 9.2.0rc1-1 of lib32-mesa, lib32-mesa-libgl and lib32-ati-dri as packaged by Archlinux.

Reverting to 9.1.6-1 of the above packages resolves this issue (the 64bit packages remain 9.2.0rc1).

This is on AMD Radeon Juniper (6750), Arch Linux 64-bit, with the following non-default options in xorg.conf.d:

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"ATI"
	Driver		"radeon"
	Option		"ColorTiling"		"on"
	Option		"ColorTiling2D"		"on"
	Option		"SwapBuffersWait"	"false"
EndSection


Regardless of this corruption, the framerate goes up by about 10 fps. Good job on the release!

If I can help in any way, let me know.

Peter
Comment 1 Alex Deucher 2013-08-22 21:06:27 UTC
Can you bisect to track down what commit caused the problem?
Comment 2 Emil Velikov 2013-08-22 23:11:38 UTC
Wild guess, but can it be bug 67887 ?
Comment 3 Peter Kraus 2013-08-23 08:11:38 UTC
RE: Emil:
Possibly. I couldn't get a screenshot of the corruption, mine looked a lot different, but it's definitely possible.

RE: Alex:
I'll try when I get back home and have some time (ie tomorrow). I might try and follow the bisect of bug 67887, to see whether it's indeed a duplicate.
Comment 4 Peter Kraus 2013-08-24 12:31:28 UTC
Hello,
did not have a time to bisect yet (seems to be a bit more complex than I thought, or I'm just daft).

The behaviour is not fixed by yesterday's game update, and it's not fixed in 9.2rc2 either.

What's the best way of doing the bisect if I don't want to pollute my Arch Linux install?

Cheers.
Comment 5 Peter Kraus 2013-08-26 06:25:19 UTC
Hello again,
I'm trying to bisect, but the compilation fails with:

glsl_parser.cpp:2603:41: error: 'scanner' was not declared in this scope

That's on git revision 56114, which is the first one git bisect asks me to build.
Comment 6 Alex Deucher 2013-08-26 12:52:20 UTC
try `make clean` or `make distclean` before rebuilding.

Arch uses Bison 3, thus you might need to apply one or all of the following.

Hello,
Alex, your suggestion doesn't seem to work. 

Emil, sorry, I don't really know what to do with these hashes - if you give me the git command to run in the repo, I could try that...

I can get current HEAD (58251) compiled, running, and the regression is still there. Once I start bisecting, though, the "scanner" error as in comment 5 happens.

Also, I've managed to get some screenshots of the corruption, see attached.

Regardless, you would need to do make clean/distclean after each bisection step.

this should do the job
$ git cherry-pick $hash

Note: you might need to pick one, two, etc of the hashes depending on where exactly your HEAD is (i.e. some of the patches may be already applied). In theory all of those should apply cleanly (git will not complain), although you may not be so lucky.

Once you take a quick look at the patches mentioned you will see which one resolves what issue (git show $hash), and you'll be able to pick the correct ones.

> Also, I've managed to get some screenshots of the corruption, see attached.
Indeed your issue seems different from the one I've mentioned.
Comment 12 Peter Kraus 2013-08-27 20:50:42 UTC
Hello,
I guess I'm just really unlucky. Compilation of "required merge" according to git bisect fails with:

CXXLD    libOSMesa.la
/usr/bin/ld: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `../../../../src/mesa/.libs/libmesa.a(ast_expr.o)' is incompatible with i386 output

Which is similar to a bug report here: bug 50754. Adding those variables into the build script doesn't help (in fact, they've been in before). Looks like I'm stuffed yet again!

Hi there,

any update on this one? Can I / do I need to test anything? It's a bit of a bummer...

Or is this a bug in Dota?

The behaviour is there also with linux-3.11.

Comment 17 Marko Srebre 2013-09-12 13:40:35 UTC
Hi,
I am also having this behavior in Dota2. Peter, are you sure 7948ed1250cae78ae1b22dbce4ab23aceacc6159 is the first non-working? Can you try one earlier commit, 1b40398d024d2ac5c8e8b78d0f4941e2a007de2c, and confirm that it works? Because, I am seeing the corruption on even earlier (haven't figured out yet how much earlier).

Maybe I am doing something wrong, I am compiling 32-bit mesa on otherwise 64-bit system, but I can see my own printf()'s I've put in to make sure the correct library is loaded when running Dota2.

Hello,
I have just checked, commit 1b40398d024d2ac5c8e8b78d0f4941e2a007de2c (+ the 5 patches for Bison 3, above) still works fine.

Current HEAD is still broken.

Comment 27 Rune Petersen 2013-10-09 15:41:38 UTC
fun observation:

Instead of reverting, setting this at the end of r600_cp_dma_copy_buffer() appears to fix it for me:
    rctx->b.flags |= R600_CONTEXT_INV_VERTEX_CACHE;

(R600_CONTEXT_INV_CONST_CACHE will also work)


Thing I don't understand about this is that if I instead set the flag just before r600_flush_emit() is called (2 places) the corruption is still there. I must be missing something.

Your observation also applies to my HD 6950.
Comment 30 Marek Olšák 2013-10-10 11:33:09 UTC

Comment 31 Dieter Nützel 2013-10-10 20:36:47 UTC
Marek,

you ask about, so...
If I'm right, I see some on my poor RV730 AGP under git,
but not with Dota2 or the like 'cause I haven't such stuff.
I see it with Q3A demo (my old testing one) and mesa-demos/
objviewer bobcat.obj/buddha.obj/bunny.obj/GreatLakesBiplaneHP.obj.
Most with high frame rate ones (bobcat.obj).

Well, if we are using CP DMA to update a constant buffer or vertex buffer, we need to flush the the apprortiate shader read caches.

So, if I understand correctly what you mean, before reverting commit 7948ed1250cae78ae1b22dbce4ab23aceacc6159, the problem was that we were not flushing correctly (read "when expected") caches. Am I understanding correctly?

Why would adding either rctx->b.flags |= R600_CONTEXT_INV_VERTEX_CACHE or rctx->b.flags |= R600_CONTEXT_INV_CONST_CACHE work in fixing the texture glitch (which are coming from an unknown buffer type for now) if they are not intended for the same buffer type?

Also, I'm still interested in benchmarking with and without commit 7948ed1250cae78ae1b22dbce4ab23aceacc6159, so I'll gladly run any suggestion. Would something like Phoronix test suite be of any interest?
Comment 35 Marek Olšák 2013-10-10 22:34:14 UTC
Feel free to do some benchmarking if you want.

The question is why this code at the end of the function didn't set one of the flush flags:

r600_flag_resource_cache_flush(rctx, dst);

Constants are usually read with the shader cache and indirect addressing of the constants goes through the vertex cache. Also some chips don't have the vertex cache, so they have to use the texture cache instead. That's why both VERTEX and CONST work for some chips in this situation. The purpose of the flags is to express what type of buffer was changed. The flushing code will then figure out which cache should be flushed.

I've run with the original commit 7948ed (+ little workaround) and with it remove (both using latest git as of yesterday). I do see a performance difference.

I have the following result with the original commit (+ workaround):
Nexuiz -> 58.59
OpenArea -> 59.47
World of Padman -> 59.70
Urban Terror -> 38.03
Warsow -> 157.43

Once removed:
Nexuiz -> 58.47
OpenArea -> 59.20
World of Padman -> 59.63
Urban Terror -> 37.07
Warsow -> 141.55

Now, I should run it again and be sure I'm not enabling vsync here and there. Warsow seems to be the one showing the greatest difference since it was not hitting the refresh limit.

I ran it again with vsync disabled and, while the scores went up, results are pretty close from one to another. This time, Warsow scored a bit lower with 7948ed than without it. So, it as no real impact on performances from what I can see.

Was fixed on 6950 (I'll test it again later today to be sure things are still OK). Patches point to evergreen code and above. Marek could tell if it applies (or if a similar solution should be made) to R700 (HD4XXX).

Do you mean the flickering increases in time even if you stay where you are in DOTA 2? If so, it may be a different bug. The patch fixed the flickering I was seeing (and I think it was the same for Peter) in some specific areas (always the same flickering intensity in a given area, it could be related to some elements in the are like the river or towers for example).

Peter reopened this bug because the patch was not backported to mesa 9.2 but it had been fixed for him too when applied manually.

Retested with latest mesa on kernel 3.13-rc3 and there is no flickering at all on Cayman.

Same here: lots of flickering textures. rv730 (HD4xxx).

Present with the tip of the master branch. Not influenced by 7948ed1250.
So far I haven't been able to find a revision that does *not* show the flickering. I went as far back as December 2012.

There will be a severe performance hit though.

Yes, that one fixes the problem.

I'm seeing additional texture corruption with that patch. I can't say if nodma,nocpdma helps or makes them worse.

Oops, I only just noticed that my kernel (3.13.2) is rejecting CS buffers:

[  377.460557] radeon 0000:01:00.0: r600_cs_track_check:756 mask 0x00000777 | 0x00000FFF no cb for 2
[  377.460563] radeon 0000:01:00.0: r600_packet3_check:1708 invalid cmd stream
[  377.460566] [drm:radeon_cs_ib_chunk] *ERROR* Invalid command stream !

This is with libdrm 2.4.52 and Mesa f47e5.
Comment 56 Marek Olšák 2014-02-08 16:41:22 UTC
Make sure your kernel has this patch:

drm/radeon: skip colorbuffer checking if COLOR_INFO.FORMAT is set to INVALID
Comment 57 Tilman Sauerbeck 2014-02-09 10:56:17 UTC
Alright, that fixed the CS rejections as expected.

However the Mesa patch doesn't fix the flickering.
Comment 58 Grégoire Paris 2014-03-24 22:07:40 UTC
@Tilman Sauerbeck : did you file a new bug ? If not, shouldn't this bug be reopened ?
Comment 59 Marek Olšák 2014-04-24 23:44:42 UTC
FYI, the flickering on R600 and R700 should be fixed by my latest Mesa commits.
