Running xserver 1.9,gits ddx/mesa/libdrm and d-r-t on rv790 with wait vline/dri2 vsync disabled. Since the mesa commit 3d45d57044507506ca834a4bf983422549c5240a r600g: TODO domain management I get quite severe 1/2 second glitches running the mesa demo tunnel, it seems that rather than a regression this commit causes an amplification of a pre existing, but low level issue. The glitches do not show in most games, sauerbraten will show it. They are worse if I have my card set to high perf. Running latencytop + tunnel often shows nothing, but will sometimes catch a 1/2 second event in radeon_fence_wait, and more rarely 300ms in radeon_cs_ioctl. r600c does not glitch.
(In reply to comment #0) > I get quite severe 1/2 second glitches running the mesa demo tunnel Still getting this, just wanted to add that it seems to be related to demos that start with help text. Tunnel, teapot and terrain will all glitch really badly when I start then with my card set to high. Pressing h to remove the text will alleviate the problem, though I will still get another glitch after some time (say 30 secs).
(In reply to comment #0) > They are worse if I have my card set to high perf. It seems that it's not just the card being set to full speed that affects things. The script I use to set the card to full also sets cpufreq from ondemand to performance. If I set card to full and leave cpufreq ondemand then tunnel will not cause cpu to go above 800MHz (max is 3.4Ghz) and the glitching will not be instantly noticeable. I also tested with all four possible vsync settings and they all glitch.
Haven't been able to test this for a while as this box had a mobo failiure. Current situation with git d-r-t, ddx and mesa - With CPU and card set high mesa demos with help screen still glitch when the text is displayed but only if writeback is enabled. no_wb=1 seems to fix all glitching in demos, but it doesn't fix sauerbraten, which currently locks up the GPU eventually (monitor off, no GPU reset, nothing logged SysRq still works). Sauerbraten runs OK (I am testing fullscreen) if wait for vline is enabled in ddx so the framerate is capped.

The Sauerbraten lock up is fixed by - commit fa86fc564aea4e40c89f6fc889e6a5bf817634b3 Author: Jerome Glisse <jglisse@redhat.com> Date: Fri Dec 3 20:47:02 2010 -0500 r600g: build fetch shader from vertex elements The game caps it's own fps to 200, so perhaps if it was a many vertices thing then the commit avoids rather than fixes. The mesa demos + full speed + text + writeback issue persists and I have possibly found another way to illustrate it. The mesa demo perf/copytex shows the issue with poor glCopyTexImage(64 x 64).

Further testing shows that this is unaffected by writeback setting - happens with 0 or 1.
the assert should give a bigger message, like a trace please paste it here
(In reply to comment #8) > the assert should give a bigger message, like a trace please paste it here It doesn't give a trace - running the binary direct just gives Trace/breakpoint trap I've tried gdb but it doesn't assert when running under it.
(In reply to comment #9) > I've tried gdb but it doesn't assert when running under it. Sauerbraten is also affected, whatever perf is set to.

The tunnel glitching with high perf + text is not fixed. The assert I should have been filed as a separate bug - just when I first saw it it depended on perf settings like this one, but turned out to be unrelated.
Tunnel glitching with card/cpu set to high perf when help text displayed is fixed by - commit 2a456dc123e8263de8e4666890a34f403faa9a39 Author: Marek Olšák <maraeo@gmail.com> Date: Sat Jan 29 05:11:01 2011 +0100 u_blitter: use user buffers instead of real buffers User buffers may be the fastest way to upload data.
