Description Simon Farnsworth 2014-09-09 15:18:08 UTC
I'm trying to persuade a Haswell G1820TE to run stable for long periods of time, but I keep getting GPU hangs.

[  414.334623] [drm] stuck on render ring
[  414.336340] [drm] GPU HANG: ecode 0:0x87d3bffa, in screen_manager [878], reason: Ring hung, action: reset
[  414.336351] [drm] GPU hangs can indicate a bug anywhere in the entire gfx stack, including userspace.
[  414.336356] [drm] Please file a _new_ bug report on bugs.freedesktop.org against DRI -> DRM/Intel
[  414.336360] [drm] drm/i915 developers can then reassign to the right component if it's not a kernel issue.
[  414.336365] [drm] The gpu crash dump is required to analyze gpu hangs, so please always attach it.
[  414.336370] [drm] GPU crash dump saved to /sys/class/drm/card0/error

I've tried using i915.use_mmio_flip=1, but still get the hang.

What am I doing wrong?

Device is Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU G1820TE @ 2.20GHz.

Packages:

 * kernel-3.17.0-0.rc4.git0.1.fc22.x86_64
 * libdrm-2.4.54-1.fc20.x86_64
 * mesa-dri-drivers-10.1.5-1.20140607.fc20.x86_64
 * xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.21.15-7.fc20.x86_64
 * xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.14.4-5.fc20.x86_64

I can add more information if needed - I'll attach a gzip compressed version of the error state from when I has use_mmio_flip=1

Comment 2 Simon Farnsworth 2014-09-11 17:13:38 UTC
I can repro this reliably, with only X11 and the compositor accessing the GPU; the application drawing (Adobe Flash in the repro case) is using X11 to draw.

Moving to xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.99.916-2.fc21 with SNA instead of UXA didn't help, nor did enabling triple buffering.
Comment 3 Chris Wilson 2014-09-11 20:12:27 UTC
It's the switch into the compositors context is where it dies (and in all the similar bugs it is the switch into the GL context). One hypothesis is that something in the context state saved from GL is corrupt or plain invalid upon restore. An alternative shotgun: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~ickle/linux-2.6/log/?h=requests

Applying the shotgun fixed it - at least one of the pellets must have hit the bug between the eyes.

How do you want me to proceed from here? I need a patchset that meets the rules for stable kernels (I'm trying to stick as closely as possible to Fedora's kernels here). I've got the usual tools to hand (repro case, git, RPM building tools etc), so can work with you to get a suitable tested patchset.
Comment 5 Chris Wilson 2014-09-17 10:24:30 UTC
That's a bit scary then. Which commit did I point you at so I can find the parent drm-intel-nightly commit (to narrow the shotgun down a bit)?

    drm/i915: Convert a couple more INTEL_INFO-esque macros to be pointer agnostic
    
    Just a couple more macros that assume that they were being passed a
    struct drm_device when they want a struct drm_i915_private. Use our
    magic macro to ease transitioning over to using drm_i915_privates

The first commit to check is then 257d90d13794c2eb545ab0d6c708f21e2a0378b6. That will tell us if the fix is in my shotgun branch or upstream. My guess is that it is in this branch, in which case you have two points from which to start bisecting. I have a few guesses, it might well be one of the minor patches...

That commit did not work - I get my GPU hangs.

I'll start bisecting.
Comment 9 Simon Farnsworth 2014-09-17 14:09:15 UTC
I think I done wrong. It looks like I tried your *master* branch, not your *requests* branch, and bisect won't work:

: sfarnsworth host64  $ git bisect start

: sfarnsworth host64  $ git bisect good 3a5e1e6176fb61735a98f16a80c756b3cc69f125

: sfarnsworth host64  $ git bisect bad 257d90d13794c2eb545ab0d6c708f21e2a0378b6
Some good revs are not ancestor of the bad rev.
git bisect cannot work properly in this case.
Maybe you mistake good and bad revs?

It's just that git is very ethical and doesn't have a loose definition of good and bad that we do. In its opinion old code is always good and bugs are only ever introduced. To get around this you have to do a "reverse git bisect" and declare good as bad and vice versa.

i.e.

git bisect start
git bisect good 257d90d13794c2eb545ab0d6c708f21e2a0378b6
git bisect bad 3a5e1e6176fb61735a98f16a80c756b3cc69f125

then hang -> git bisect good, working -> git bisect bad.

I wish git bisect had a switch for that so that you didn't have to run the risk of mixing up good/bad on each step.
Comment 11 Simon Farnsworth 2014-09-18 11:36:00 UTC
I used "git bisect good" for GPU hangs, "git bisect bad" for "it works", and "git bisect skip" for "compiler says no kernel for you."

Assuming no mistakes, I get:

I've updated the shotgun at #requests. It's been reworked quite a bit since then, and I need to double check that it still applies. I think I have a germ of a theory as to what is going wrong.

    Revert "drm/i915: Enable full PPGTT on gen7"
    
    This reverts commit 83255c23abe91da047dc71e52be62c42dd4c04a1.

This gets me a new bit of excitement - when I start X for the first time, the log file says:

[    72.039] (WW) xf86OpenConsole: setpgid failed: Operation not permitted
[    72.039] (WW) xf86OpenConsole: setsid failed: Operation not permitted
[    72.039] (EE) 
Fatal server error:
[    72.039] (EE) xf86OpenConsole: VT_ACTIVATE failed: Input/output error
[    72.039] (EE) 
[    72.039] (EE) 

which it didn't before. Second attempt to start X works fine.

I also get a new message (but not reliably) in dmesg:

[  255.476493] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... blitter ring idle

And I've had the machine freeze completely while restarting X11.

Make the context switch+dispatch uninterruptible

This should test my theory that is a signal between setting the context and executing the batch that is causing the error. Slightly too coarse, but it should point if I am in the right direction.

(Still would like confirmation on the current #requests shotgun :)

Right, there is a nasty bug in the vt layer somewhere. The branch contains a patch to return -EIO to prevent a lockup. But you should see that regardless, just depends on kernel config.

These two are more concerning. On HSW. Hmm.
Comment 17 Simon Farnsworth 2014-09-18 13:18:33 UTC
FWIW, those are both reproduceable. I get the hangcheck message first, then later an X11 restart will take out the system (no local or remote access works).

A base 3.17-rc5 with this patch applied has GPU hangs. I've grabbed the error state if it would be interesting.

Please do, I expect it to be the same error, but we should check anyway.

If you have time, could you checkout c5cddc3c051057c11ea739744ed03d284ce0d0f3^ and see if that starts up ok? (Also if you have a netconsole for grabbing the oops from that lockup that would be very useful.)

Error state after patch from comment #24 is applied

I applied the patch from #24 to Linus's tree, and got GPU hangs (see attached error). Wrong tree?

I'm not going to be able to do more tonight - 2 year old is interested in what I'm doing.

That's fine. It was just a stab in the dark.

As for the BUG() the assert looks valid, but I haven't seen how it could end up there. Oh well.
Comment 28 Chris Wilson 2014-09-18 20:49:47 UTC
Could you get drm.debug=7 dmesg for the BUG()? I don't it will give anything else, but maybe it will have a nugget of gold in there. Best would slub debug=y (use-after-free checks) or even kmemcheck.
Comment 29 Chris Wilson 2014-09-19 10:08:56 UTC
Still scratching my head over that BUG(). I've splattered a few more into #requests, if you could be so kind as to see if that changes the oops.

Meanwhile, current theory is that maybe it is the CS programming around the ctx switch that is the significant change in the shotgun. Still thinking.

I've turned on slub debug, but drm.debug=7 dmesg flows too fast to send over netconsole, with lots of repeats of:

Not my fault! It's a race entirely in the VT layer. It's been plaguing my machines for many months but I haven't decyphered enough of the VT code to understand what it is trying to do, let alone why it is failing.

If you try to start X again, it will work - it's purely a timing issue afaict.

Would be good to know if the machine runs stable without the drm.debug, and what happens without i915.enable_rc6=0.

Shiny. I run without drm.debug, and I'm stable. I remove i915.enable_rc6=0, and the GPU hangs happen again.

Ooops, sorry, yes. That's Linus's tree with the patch from comment #24 applied.

I'm now testing #requests, to see if I can knock that over. So far, only thing I've had is:
[ 1224.506836] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... blitter ring idle

and I'm not seeing any consequences from that.

After an afternoon of beating on the device under test, I have no failures from the requests branch.

[ 1224.506836] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... blitter ring idle
[ 8303.940102] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... render ring idle

are the only things logged by the kernel, and the kernel was able to recover from both of them.

Thanks, the missed irq/seqno coherency is worrying enough, but at least it confirms that there is some magic in there that seems to prevent the ctx load error. Do you mind keeping that test system running until a bug shows itself?

I can keep the test system running indefinitely, as long as I can get a stable-suitable patch ASAP to stop the GPU hang.

Still no further issues.

It looks like I can only provoke that message by restarting X and the compositor; would you like me to set that going in an endless loop and see if it BUG()s?

Nah, worked out the cause there. It is the ivb+ blt irq coherency bug, and a bad interaction of patches in my branch broke the w/a.

I've been trying to think as to what other magic could be in s/seqno/requests/ that fixup the ctx hang. I think we have more or less explored the ctx specific parts of the patch. So now what? :|

Applied the moral equivalent of that change to 3.16.3, and I see failure. I'll attach the error state.

Looks like same error.  However, there is also massive corruption of the render ring. Either that or the error state capture is snafu. Would you be happy with a backport of mammoth patch if it proved to be stable?

A 3,000 patch, 80 MB patchset would be fine if it were stable on HSW and IVB.

Backport of requests and PPGTT changes to 3.17.0

I've backported the changes from #requests to apply against the kernel RPM from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=583526

This is a fairly intrusive backport - I've tried to take drivers/gpu/drm/i915 wholesale, then remove execlists/logical ring contexts rather than piecemeal bring things forwards.

I'd appreciate it if someone could look over what I've done, and tell me if it makes sense.
Comment 54 Rainer Hochecker 2014-10-22 15:43:03 UTC
I tested Simon's patch applied to a Ubuntu 3.17.1 kernel on a 1820T system. The GPU hang did not show during a three hours test. In general it shows within the first 20 min after system start. Will do more tests.
Comment 55 Rainer Hochecker 2014-10-22 19:25:57 UTC
This patch seems to introduce new problems for me. I place fences into the render pipeline and after a glFlush I don't get all of them into the signaled state. This procedure worked without this patch and with other driver like NVidia and AMD so the issue most likely got introduced with this huge patch.

which I hope is overkill. If you have a snippet demonstrating the fences I can trace through mesa and see if there is a more precise flush we can do.
Comment 57 Rainer Hochecker 2014-10-22 20:12:18 UTC
Not sure if this is realated: currently vaapi lacks a good interop method with gl so we use vaPutSurface and texture-from-pixmap. The entire render pipeline is : decode with vaapi, vaapi postprocessing (deinterlacing), vaPutSurface (render vaapi video surface into pixmap), map pixmap to texture, render texture, place fence
when fence signals, we know that video surface (and some other resources) are ready for reuse

this places the fence:
https://github.com/FernetMenta/xbmc/blob/master/xbmc/cores/dvdplayer/DVDCodecs/Video/VAAPI.cpp#L1202

this function checks for signaled fences:
https://github.com/FernetMenta/xbmc/blob/master/xbmc/cores/dvdplayer/DVDCodecs/Video/VAAPI.cpp#L2022

I have had video playing for 4 hours today without any issues. but as soon as I stop playback it waits for all fences to be signaled, which is COutput::ProcessSyncPicture to return false but this does not happen. There is at least one fence not in GL_SIGNALED state.
When playback is stopped there is a glFlush before COutput::ProcessSyncPicture
https://github.com/FernetMenta/xbmc/blob/master/xbmc/cores/dvdplayer/DVDCodecs/Video/VAAPI.cpp#L1709

It never comes out of the while loop at the next line.

chrashlog on Google chromebox

Attached zip contains dmesg and error after the problem reoccured with the latest chris wilson patches on a kernel 3.17.1 kernel.

Hardware: Celeron 2955U.
Comment 61 Peter Frühberger 2014-10-23 18:08:33 UTC
Sadly one of our users still can get frequent crashes with the latest code linked here, which is the extracted patch of Simon and the additional fix chris willson made for fences problem.

Perhaps the dmesg helps a bit in that case, cause it looks much more detailed than before.

dmesg output after suspend/resume

I tried Simon's patch for kernel 3.17.0 and Chris Wilson's latest patch and I have not experienced the hangs yet.  However, I noticed that resume from suspend no longer works.  The screen flickers and then remains black.  Attached is the dmesg output.
Comment 63 Ferry Toth 2014-10-27 07:35:01 UTC
I have this exact bug too.

My hardware is an (ex-)Chromebook Acer C720P with Haswell-ULT graphcs. I'm running linux-3.17 with xorg 1.16 and intel 2.99.916.

The desktop has kwin, which autodetects the hang and resumes as if nothing happend, except for a 5 second or so pause. So no, x restarting or other bad crashes.

What I've noted the hang happens occasionally when running firefox (1x per day), but often running Chromium (1x per hour?).

How can I help?
Comment 64 Hugh Greenberg 2014-10-30 05:15:27 UTC
I just noticed that if I use this kernel option: i915.enable_ppgtt=0, I get a different hang:

It seems like this hang has been fixed here: https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=78533 , but when I compare the patch in that post with the kernel 3.17.1, there are things missing.  For example, I see that this doesn't fully match up:

I can confirm that patch posted by Simon with i915.enable_rc6=0 does not fix the issue. I also looked into my previous question and it didn't help.

Chris Wilson gave me the following kernel parameter to try:

i915.enable_ppgtt=0

on a stock kernel (not including the giant patch referenced here) and I have not been able to reproduce the hangs with it. I've tested with kernel 3.17.1 and 3.17.2.  Please confirm or deny that this works for you.  Thanks.

dump after error with i915.enable_ppgtt=0

This is the error dump I got after booting the kernel with: i915.enable_ppgtt=0 .
Comment 72 Peter Frühberger 2014-11-05 18:09:18 UTC
Am I correct in the summary that especially Celeron, Pentium HSW GPUs are affected?

Our testing on the xbmc forums shows the same results. It seems only the simple HSW GPUs frequently run into this hang.

Perhaps someone could have a look if the "ringbuffer" is one bit off or something happens, when we get rounding, clamping, fragmentation anything? Some Flush missing as in the past in Mesa?

It might very well be that other higher GPU series also have that issue, but they are not hit that frequently cause of more Execution Units? Perhaps more load can stall them too?
Comment 73 Ferry Toth 2014-11-05 20:56:39 UTC
I have Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
(Intel Celeron 2955U)

I guess that matches the profile?

This is on a Acer C720P Chromebook booting using the built-in Seabios (developer mode).

Strange thing: I notice hangs often when running chromium, but never when booting ChromeOS (which runs Chrome). So either Google fixed something in their kernel, or they have GPU configured differently when coreboot boots ChromeOS then when coreboot boots Seabios. Or, more recent kernels then ChromeOS's introduce the problem?
Comment 74 Peter Frühberger 2014-11-05 20:58:02 UTC
Can you try the chrome kernel version on your linux installation? Ubuntu mainline has some of those (if you are using Ubuntu). That would be a good start for bisecting.
Comment 75 Ferry Toth 2014-11-05 21:44:44 UTC
They have? I didn't know that. Which kernel would you like me to try?

Up to now I had 3.13 from 14.04 with some patched up drivers to get touchpad and touchscreen working, and 3.17rc?, 3.17 and 3.17.1 from kernel ppa (mainline kernels). 3.16 from 14.10 does not have the drivers included and no patched drivers available afaik, so doesn't work to well. Also tried 3.18rc? but that seem to be in the best shape right now (rc1 didn't even boot). 3.13 + patches and 3.17 seem to run equally well but with the exact same GPU hang.

Also xorg-edgers ppa makes no change.

This is a small patch to change a register definition that I think is wrong.  It is against 3.17.2, but it should work for at least any 3.17 kernel.  Please let me know if it fixes the issue or not.

It seems (no scientific proof) the hang occurs even more frequently with the patch applied. Every HANG one can see there will freeze the render for a specific amount of time - which has a huge visual impact.

Comment 84 Peter Frühberger 2014-11-06 15:08:34 UTC
Quite easy,

build latest master (helix beta1) via https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commits/master or use a nightly ppa. Enable VAAPI (disable VDPAU). Under Video -> Acceleration, check that "Prefer VAAPI Render Method" is enabled, which is the default. You need to switch the settings hierarchy to "Expert" to see those settings.

You can highly provoke that error by watching interlaced content and using Motion Compensation Deinterlacing with VPP ontop. 

Beware, there is no release vaapi driver that supports this yet, you need to use: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/vaapi/intel-driver/log/ e.g. the master branch, Gwenole repaired the driver (vebox fixes) some months ago and pushed the results into libva master branch last week.

While playing such an interlaced video, press return, select the video film role and activate Deinterlace: Auto Deinterlace-Method: Moption Compensation Deinterlacing. Save for all files.

Now wait <= 10 minutes and see it hanging.

Btw. using vpp deinterlacing seems to stress the GPU more, so you don't need to keep it running for hours (as it would be with progressive content).

You need a Celeron HSW platform to reproduce. On my Core Systems the issue nearly never happens.

Comment 86 Peter Frühberger 2014-11-06 18:55:38 UTC
There is no package. That was a question, only. A short google revealed that the chrome guys seems to use something highly customized, so I don't think such a package exists.
Comment 87 Hugh Greenberg 2014-11-07 19:33:33 UTC
I can't figure this out.  I'm not an Intel or kernel developer, but maybe I could figure it out with hardware debugging support or docs that were correct.  I would recommend that we just stop purchasing Intel GPUs and go with Nvidia based GPUs.  This bug report is one of many for the same bug.  My first report was from June.  I really don't think this is going to get fixed.
Comment 88 Peter Frühberger 2014-11-07 20:40:23 UTC
Yeah. You exactly make the right point. And sorry - I thought you were an intel dev last time :-). I even searched for you in the intel channel. Now I know why the other intel devs could not find you.

Thanks much for trying to help.

It really feels like being a 3rd party citizen. I am not sure what else we could do to solve that issue.


I will also ignore that bugreport from now on .. I have a PR ready to remove VAAPI from xbmc. I think this will be a good signal for protesting.

No problem.  I should have made that clear.

I have an Acer C720 and I've making Linux distributions for it so other Acer C720 owners that want Linux can easy install it without having to figure a ton of things out.  This was the last major bug that I have encountered.  I also started a site around those distros (distroshare.com) so there could be a single place for others to share such distributions.

I'm a big fan of Kodi/XMBC btw.  Thanks for such an awesome software.
Comment 90 Hugh Greenberg 2014-11-08 01:34:58 UTC
In case you weren't aware, this bug will actually affect any hardware acceleration path that XBMC takes, not just the VAPPI one.  It just seems to show up more with VAPPI.  Anything that uses the dri/drm layers will encounter this bug.

Maybe you can direct your users that encounter this bug to submit a bug report.

GPU-hang dmesg output on Pentium G3420 using OpenELEC 4.2.1/XBMC

Hi, 

I'm having the crashes described here quite often while running XBMC on OpenELEC 4.2.1 (latest stable):

[15194.281458] [drm] stuck on render ring
[15194.282221] [drm] GPU HANG: ecode 0:0x87d3bffa, in xbmc.bin [780], reason: Ring hung, action: reset
[15196.281552] [drm] Enabling RC6 states: RC6 on, RC6p off, RC6pp off

Complete dmesg attached. 

This causes the video to freeze every few seconds, while audio continues normally. After the hang the video 'catches up' by skipping a lot of frames until it's in sync again. I'm using x264 mpeg4 source material. 

This is a very annoying bug for me and seems to make my new media system seem like a waste of money. 

Please investigate this issue further!

Thanks,
M. Kramer

Hi,

I have a haswell pentium G3240 cpu and adding the following kernel parameters to my bootloader seem to prevent the gpu hangs for me.

i915.semaphores=0 i915.use_mmio_flip=1 i915.enable_ppgtt=1 drm.vblankoffdelay=1 

I don't know how to add these kernel parameters in openelec so you will need to ask on their forum how to do this.

Hope this helps.
Comment 93 adr3nal1n 2014-11-09 18:37:00 UTC
Also note that this guy with a haswell chromebook uses only the following kernel parameters to prevent the gpu hangs  https://johnlewis.ie/tentative-fixwork-around-for-i915-gpu-hangs/ I think i'll try reducing it down to these options too.

drm.debug=0 drm.vblankoffdelay=1 i915.semaphores=0

I am running arch linux with kernel 3.17.2 and the following elements:

- libva-intel-driver 1.4.1
- libva 1.4.1
- xf86-video-intel 2.99.916
- xbmc 13.2

Hope this information helps.
Comment 94 Hugh Greenberg 2014-11-09 20:06:28 UTC
We all tried the fix from John Lewis.  It caused system hangs and we couldn't figure out which options actually helped.

I'm trying your modified version of the command line and so far I've been able to use Kodi with VAPPI for a long time (2 hours I think) without a hang or freeze.  I will keep it going for the rest of day though before I am sure that this really works.

This bug report is where we were testing that fix: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80229. Comment 58 has the same command line as you: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80229#c58, except for the vblankoffdelay, and encountered system freezes.

Hope your testing goes well Hugh,

I have been using (i915.semaphores=0 i915.use_mmio_flip=1 i915.enable_ppgtt=1 drm.vblankoffdelay=1) with xbmc gotham for a couple of days now with no hangs.

I'll post again if i notice any hangs over the coming days. (I normally use xbmc for a few hours a day)
Comment 97 Hugh Greenberg 2014-11-09 20:59:03 UTC
If someone could figure out how to dump the GPU instructions on a Windows machine with a Haswell chipset, I think we could develop a patch. Why the Intel developers couldn't do this is beyond me.

Hi Hugh,

Just wanted to let you know that XBMC dev fritsch stated the following regarding the use of the above kernel parameters. "We made longtime tests and the same happens after 12 hours or more. So it seems to make the bug "more unlikely", but if you add additional load on the GPU (as we do with v14 and the VPP Deinterlacers), you will get the hang again."

1037U kernel BUG traceback in i915 code

The picture shows a kernel BUG that we can reproduce on IvyBridge CPUs.
This traceback is from a 1037U running the kernel patched by Simon Farnsworth with the advice of Chris Wilson.

We can reproduce but not at will.
We have test code that will provoke the bug given enough test runs.

use hw de-interlacers and you'll reproduce in max 11 minutes, every time. (see my logs).

LightDM and the unity desktop worked after I disabled dri3 in the intel driver as Chris suggested. After that change and enabling tear free (also as Chris suggested), I was able to test this kernel. I was able to play a video in Kodi for over an hour using the VAAPI support as Peter described above and I did not experience a hang.

Comment 112 Peter Frühberger 2014-11-18 18:47:48 UTC
Tearfree is a nightmare for applications that count swapBuffers ...

But never the less that sounds promissing, now we need to find out which change is the real fix.

Can you post the xorg.conf sniplet you use to make it work?
Comment 113 Hugh Greenberg 2014-11-18 18:55:10 UTC
This is the config file that I put in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d:

Section "Device"
  Identifier "Intel Graphics"
  Driver "intel"
  Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection

Here is my x11 intel driver recompiled with the  --disable-dri3  option: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6zPD2kAJoTJcHdNS1J1VWpKY2s/view?usp=sharing .  I'm using the oibaf ppa for the latest graphics stack - https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers.

If I didn't turn it off, I got hangs just by launching xbmc. You'll probably see the same thing.

I have TearFree turned off, running with the "normal" intel drivers now. So I should also hit the bug now?

You got much farther than me without modifying anything. I couldn't even launch xbmc without dri3 disabled and I got the hangs with TearFree turned off.

try those - standard packages. We have massive issues with everything > 910, as it seems it has issues with swap buffers, therefore we use 910 on all the machines.

Just purge the oibaf ppa.
Comment 120 Hugh Greenberg 2014-11-18 19:14:42 UTC
The reason why I didn't do that is because the vaapi driver that you were testing required a newer libva.  I didn't know if that had dependencies on the newer mesa or not. I guess not.

I backported Chris Wilson's branch to 3.17.4.

Patch: 
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6zPD2kAJoTJNEZnczJ3YU1ickU/view?usp=sharing

Kernel debs:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6zPD2kAJoTJMXJlY3NYSVZfd2M/view?usp=sharing

I've tested these for 20+ hours and it has been working well. The only thing is that TearFree needs to be enabled in the intel driver until there is a patch available for that. You can enable it like this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel_graphics#Tear-free_video .

Comment 132 dhead666 2014-11-25 15:08:33 UTC
The huge patch that ported to 3.17.4 by Hugh Greenberg is working very well for me.
After a day of work with the system I didn't experience any freezes or hangs with Chromium or at all.
I only kept the kernel parameter i915.modeset=1.

I did experienced a rare slowdown of Chromium with a segfault in journald, I didn't saw such segfault before.

kernel: WebCore: Worker[15893]: segfault at fbadbeef ip 00007f75abde2e25 sp 00007f758d175190 error 6 in chromium[7f75a993d000+5b6f000

What changed from upstream kernel is that with upstream:
* when no kernel parameter used (except i915.modeset=1) Chromium would hangs and would force me to kill it.
* when using the parameters: i915.modeset=1 i915.semaphores=0 i915.use_mmio_flip=1 i915.enable_ppgtt=1 drm.vblankoffdelay=1, instead of hanging, Chromium would slow down the system to almost a halt, Kodi would also triger such slowdowns (in much higher rate than with the patch), it seems like i915.semaphores=0 is the one making the difference between hang to slowdown.

I didn't gave much attention to testing vaapi, but it does seem works fine.

Finally I encounter a hang with Chris Wilson's branch and kernel 3.17.4.

kernel: [drm] GPU HANG: ecode 7:0:0x87d3bffa, in chromium [15797], reason: Stuck on render ring, action: reset

My system froze after I reopened Chromium so I don't have the gpu crash dump.
Comment 137 Hugh Greenberg 2014-12-02 17:17:46 UTC
I think that it is possible that this is a different problem due to chromium and hardware acceleration. I have been running on two devices for 7 days straight without a single hang.

Keep GPU awake for context switches
Comment 143 Peter Frühberger 2014-12-11 06:46:05 UTC
I build Ubuntu kernel's with the two patches applied. After discussion with chris I left out the ringbuffer changes as those were not needed.

You can find the patches in my 3.18.0 tree on github.com/fritsch - the latest two of them.

Ubuntu kernel debs are here:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/55728161/linux-headers-3.18.0-ickle75%2B_3.18.0-ickle75%2B-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb

Happy testing.
Comment 144 Peter Frühberger 2014-12-12 07:08:36 UTC
Looking very good for now. We have ported the fix to kernel 3.17 and included it into OpenELEC.

For now we already have one promissing report. I will keep you informed. Thank you very much.
Comment 145 Nikola Šnele 2014-12-12 11:20:53 UTC
I can confirm that bug is fixed in Peter's kernel. No gpu hangs anymore :)
Comment 146 dhead666 2014-12-13 14:53:47 UTC
So far no hangs on my C720 Chromebook with the two patches from Peter's repo.

Thanks Chris for figuring it out, this bug was very annoying and disruptive.
Comment 147 Hugh Greenberg 2014-12-13 22:48:56 UTC
The fix is working great for me. Thank you very much Chris.
Comment 148 adr3nal1n 2014-12-14 11:47:57 UTC
Working really well here too! :-)  I used only the 2nd 3.17 kernel patch from Peter Frühberger (the one without the ringbuffer changes).

For reference I am running Arch Linux 3.17 x86_64 with a Haswell Pentium G3240 CPU. Am testing using XBMC 13.2 Gotham and so far have not had any gpu hangs, frame drops or skips during HD video playback. :-)

Thanks very much Chris Wilson for all your hard work on fixing this and to Peter Frühberger.

When do you think is it likely this patch may be added to the latest kernel at kernel.org? Sorry for asking but I am unfamiliar with how the Linux kernel patch submission process works.
Comment 149 adr3nal1n 2014-12-14 12:00:57 UTC
In addition to the above for reference, I am running the following arch linux x86_64 packages:

libva 1.4.1-1
libva-intel-driver 1.4.1-1
xf86-video-intel 2.99.916-3
mesa 10.3.5-1
mesa-dri 10.3.5-1
libxvmc 1.0.8-1

Hope this informations helps.
Comment 150 Peter Frühberger 2014-12-15 10:37:32 UTC
Tested and working very well. We are using a ported version in OpenELEC in the VAAPI testing thread.
Comment 151 dhead666 2014-12-16 16:41:32 UTC
I'm not sure if this is another issue or related to this one but even with the two patches from Peter's repo I'm still experiencing slowdowns and excessive use of RAM with Chromium.
Running Chromium with few tabs opened and another application that uses the GPU (like Kodi) will quicken the appearance of slowdown.
One might point the slowdowns source as Chromium's excessive use of RAM but I've got 4GB of it.

I'm experiencing this for a while but until now the "stuck on render ring" forced me to use i915 kernel parameters or the huge backport from Chris Wilson's development branch so I couldn't be sure this issue will be still exist after resolving the "stuck on render ring".

This is usually the output in journald:

Comment 152 Hugh Greenberg 2014-12-16 16:51:19 UTC
I don't know if this is the same issue or not, but I have noticed slow downs on the acer c720 related to swap and the disk cache. My solution has been to set the following in /etc/sysctl.conf:

vm.swappiness = 0
vm.dirty_background_bytes = 0
vm.dirty_bytes = 0
vm.dirty_ratio = 20
vm.dirty_background_ratio = 10
vm.dirty_writeback_centisecs = 500

I know you are on arch, so you may not have to do this, but I needed to change /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/laptop-mode such that I replaced the vmfiles variable with vmfiles="laptop_mode", otherwise the change would not be permanent.

So far this has worked for me to reduce slow downs.

@Hugh Greenberg, thanks but I'm not using swap.

I think I'll try to gather more info, properly compare against other GPUs and might try some of the tests in intel-gpu-tools before opening a separate issue on the matter.

Anyway, this should be discussed somewhere else so if you've anything else to share you're welcome to do this by email, G+ or even ping me at irc (dhead666@freenode).

Hi,

what did the trick with my Haswell Celeron 2955U:

In /etc/default/grub 

I added to the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""

kernel parameters I found in this thread so that the whole line looks like that:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="drm.debug=0 drm.vblankoffdelay=1 i915.semaphores=0"

Sine 10 days no gpu hangs in my ubuntu system with Celeron 2995U 
Thanks to all.

I tried the following as mentioned by Winni:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="drm.debug=0 drm.vblankoffdelay=1 i915.semaphores=0"

The screen timed out as usual (still able to move the mouse cursor around, resize windows, see the cursor change, etc.), but this time it never came back.  I even tried "ps aux | grep compiz" and "kill -9 ####" on compiz and compiz-decorator, which usually causes it to reload, but I ended up having to restart the computer as I didn't know what else to try.

I'm reopening the bug for this reason.  If you feel I shouldn't, then perhaps I should reopen my original here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90659 - let me know.  If there's anything I can do to assist in finding a solution, don't hesitate to ask!

Thanks,
Dave

This bug has nothing to do with semaphores. Just update your kernel.
