Created attachment 52891 [details] dmesg log Bought a new Radeon HD 6450 for the new desktop I was building using PhenomII X6 1075T. Installed Kubuntu Oneiric (11.10) amd64. As soon as any FB client (e.g. plymouth splash screen) starts accessing the card after switching to KMS, the screen image gets totally corrupted. Even Xorg/KDM fail to show anything useful. I can only reset the machine using the power button soft-off. Three-finger-salute also doesn't work. However, it does work in about 1 out of 10 times - if somehow the apps trying to use FB device can be killed while the radeon driver is trying to work on the chip. If KMS is disabled, the machine boots up, but Xorg fails to start saying "KMS is needed for CAICOS". The screenshots are available at: a. KMS with plymouth splash: http://img1.UploadScreenshot.com/images/main/10/30100130871.jpg b. KMS without plymouth splash (shows init msgs with bluish tinge in the background): http://img1.UploadScreenshot.com/images/main/10/30100182712.jpg c. KMS + Xorg lockup: http://img1.UploadScreenshot.com/images/main/10/30100211337.jpg d. KMS + Xorg successful start: http://img1.UploadScreenshot.com/images/main/10/30100232928.jpg I believe this is the same as bug #40935 - however, I haven't been able to boot into the system to test suspend/resume yet. Finally, I used an old nVidia GeForce 7100 GS on the same system that I had lying around as a workaround.

I installed new kernel from Ubuntu's builds - so now I'm running 3.1.0-2.3 - the current HEAD of http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-precise.git;a=summary This is rebased to v3.1 from Linus' tree. The ubuntu-precise tree already has the commit you mentioned: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-precise.git;a=commit;h=12d5180bd7e683a4ae80830b82ba67e7b7fac7b2 The severity of lockups seems to have reduced - however, I haven't tested it thoroughly yet. It still locked up while starting Xorg/KDM, but I could at least switch to tty1 and stop KDM. I started KDM after a while and it started properly. Also, dmesg didn't show any more "GPU lockup" messages after KDM started properly. Is it possible to load radeon.ko with some debug setting enabled? so that it can dump more verbose messages - if that helps you. "modinfo radeon" doesn't show any "debug..." parameter that can be used. Not uploading new screenshots since there are no changes - (b) and (d) from earlier screenshots is what I got when booting into the new kernel. Attaching the new dmesg after this comment.

Are you doing this under a virtual box ? If so it's not supported
(In reply to comment #8) > Are you doing this under a virtual box ? If so it's not supported No - this is my bare-metal machine booting. I use VirtualBox to boot into a server version of Ubuntu where I do my development work. Besides, I thought VirtualBox emulated its own vga card - why would you see the radeon card inside a virtual machine?

For info from bug 43655, it fixes the bug on Cayman (XFX 6950).

Unfortunately, this patch on its own doesn't fix the problem for me. :( I also noticed a new commit with reference to this bug in Linus' tree when I synced my git tree: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=81ee8fb6b52ec69eeed37fe7943446af1dccecc5 So, I cherry-picked this patch on top of commit 0937d042b97a9540b5488ab172aa14b53e80014b of Ubuntu's quantal tree from: git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-quantal.git and built the new kernel from it on 15th Aug., 2012. And it still doesn't solve the problem for me :( The behaviour remains the same. Anything more that I can try? I tried to apply this patch on top of commit 81ee8fb6b52ec69eeed37fe7943446af1dccecc5, but it fails to apply at all. I'm now starting to wonder if it's really a driver issue or whether I have gotten a bad card. But, the fact that I can switch to tty (after repeatedly hitting ctrl+alt+f1 for about 30-40 times in fast successions) and then restart kdm without any artifacts suggests that the card is fine. Could it be some race condition being triggered? Attaching the dmesg output.
Created attachment 65604 [details] dmesg output as of 15th Aug., 2012. dmesg output with new kernel with commit 81ee8fb6b52ec69eeed37fe7943446af1dccecc5. Lots of GPU softresets at the bottom of the log.
If it doesn't fix the bug for Kunal, does it means bug 43655 is not a duplicate of this one? If so, both bugs should be unlinked and attachment 64759 [details] [review] should be assigned as a fix for bug 43655 and commited as is since it does fix a bug on my side.
I am also experiencing complete display corruption with KMS and my Radeon 6450 HD. Building an updated kernel with the following commit did not help: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=81ee8fb6b52ec69eeed37fe7943446af1dccecc5

No luck :( It's still the same after applying those patches and rebuilding the kernel. Attaching the xorg log and dmesg log after this.

Would it be possible to rebase or, even better, push it to kernel since it fixes problem with CAYMAN (bug 43655, which should not be considered as a duplicate (similar symptoms, different fix))
A similar patch is already upstream: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commitdiff;h=81ee8fb6b52ec69eeed37fe7943446af1dccecc5

Anything more that I can try? Or something wrong that I did? Do these patches need any additional bits from 3.6 kernels? Asking since the Ubuntu Quantal series is based on 3.5 while these patches are all fairly new.
Any update on this bug? Anything more that I can try? Haven't seen any patches related to this bug going into Linus' tree as well. Thanks, Kunal
Did you tested 3.7 kernel ? Bunch of patch went in some might help your case.

So, instead, installed 3.7-rc5 based Ubuntu kernel from: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc5-raring/ (specifically, following files: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc5-raring/linux-headers-3.7.0-030700rc5-generic_3.7.0-030700rc5.201211110835_amd64.deb http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc5-raring/linux-headers-3.7.0-030700rc5_3.7.0-030700rc5.201211110835_all.deb http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc5-raring/linux-image-3.7.0-030700rc5-generic_3.7.0-030700rc5.201211110835_amd64.deb http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc5-raring/linux-image-extra-3.7.0-030700rc5-generic_3.7.0-030700rc5.201211110835_amd64.deb ) With this, situation is no better. In fact, with this kernel, I cannot even switch to a tty to restart X - which works happily on my current 3.2.0-32-generic (package: "linux-image-3.2.0-32-generic" version: "3.2.0-32.51"). There is no significant message logged in the syslog with 3.7-rc5 which can point to a problem. Attaching the dmesg output and Xorg log anyways. Thanks, Kunal

It exhibits the same issue as 3.7-rc5. Any clue why so? Something to do with VRAM registers? Just guessing.. Thanks, Kunal
Hi, Any update on this bug? As I mentioned in my previous comment c#37, v3.7-rc5 has been no better. Anything more that I can try? Any clue if and where can I find the documentation for the chip? (RV730, IIRC) Just so that I can learn about the code. Thanks, Kunal
Was attachment 64759 [details] [review] ever applied to kernel's git? While I don't know if the current bug is still happening for radeon HD 6450 cards, it was fixing bug 43655 (which was considered as a duplicate, but it was not as explained in the last comment of that bug because it works for HD 6950). If not, please let me know because I'm still experiencing bug 43655 with kernel 3.9.0-rc4 and attachment 64759 [details] [review] can't be applied on kernel's current git version (was applying on 3.7, not sure about 3.8, definitively not on 3.9).
I do not know if this is relevant, but I recently purchased a radeon 6450 and had similar issues - corruption when KMS is started and lockups when X starts. I did not get these issues in fglrx or the windows drivers. I then happened to notice that the memory clock settings for the 'boot' power profile were incorrect, and were significantly higher than the card should support. The high & low power states appeared to be correct. Changing the boot values using the Radeon Bios editor (http://www.techpowerup.com/rbe/) fixed these problems for me.

While this is not related to the proposed attachment, it is quite interesting to know you were able to fix your problem by tweaking your card's bios. Maybe Kunal could tell us more about some similar observations.
