I had recently updated s/w on my computer and noticed that all opengl apps would no longer open. I believe I have narrowed down the causes to xf86-video-intel, and it seems that enabling sna on latest git causes the issue to arise.
Created attachment 49449 [details] /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_error_state
To clarify, currently latest is: 6dbbb74bde034f5f00aee0396ccd1e03a6625fbd Previous (3e55f3e88b40471706d5cd45c4df4010f8675c75) seems to work fine (so far). I have i965 / intel 3000 hd graphics.
I also forgot to mention that the following errors were showing up: [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... GPU hung
