First of all. Sorry about spam.
This is mass update for our bugs. 

Sorry if you feel this annoying but with this trying to understand if bug still valid or not.
If bug investigation still in progress, please ignore this and I apologize!

If you think this is not anymore valid, please comment to the bug that can be closed.
If you haven't tested with our latest pre-upstream tree(drm-tip), can you do that also to see if issue is valid there still and if you cannot see issue there, please comment to the bug.

The issue is still present in a fully updated Ubuntu 17.10 with the newest mainline kernel 4.16rc7 from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/

Any advice from you Mika/Chris?

disable wc

Reproduce with https://cgit.freedesktop.org/drm-tip

Then apply the attached 'disable wc' patch to see that the bisect is
valid. It should in effect revert the 448661d65f6f5dbcdb9c5cba185b284f2464b65
parts that are of suspect.

Been trying pull and builds every few days to test patch for over 2 weeks. Can't get anything that won't panic on boot.  Screen shot is from vm but real machine does same thing.  Get same behavior on linus master and drm-tip master.  Googling failed me.  Need help, any suggestions?

This looks like https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/5/17/482

Setting CMA=n should get you a bootable kernel if you don't want to patch it.

Tried CMA=n but then initramfs couldn't find boot device.  Building with and without patch now.  Will be a few days before I can test again.

Got build that boots on different hardware.
On laptop with issue master and master+patch both hang.
master hangs after starting X just after _ in top left goes away.
patch hangs after starting X with a _ in top left.

Aun, Do you still see the issue? if so, reproduce the issue using drm-tip (https://cgit.freedesktop.org/drm-tip) and kernel parameters drm.debug=0x1e log_buf_len=4M, and if the problem persists attach the full dmesg from boot.

Aun, any updates here?

No feedback for more than a month. Reducing the priority of the bug.

I did not open the issue but I had a similar one which is resolved:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103509

There are still occasional freezes which are not yet solved:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108357
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108358

The two bugs above don't seem related (the second one is not even specific to Intel HW). 

Aun, do you continue seeing the original issue you reported?

No feedback from the reporter from more than few months. Closing this bug as WORKSFORME. PLease reopen this issue if this issue is still existing in drmtip.
