Description Armin K 2013-10-20 19:02:58 UTC
I have a hybrid graphics laptop with Radeon HD 6450M and Intel HD 3000 graphics card. When I try to turn off the discrete (Radeon) card, I see these warnings

Comment 1 Armin K 2013-10-20 19:03:27 UTC
This happens with 3.12 kernel, with 3.11 it worked just fine.
Comment 2 Alex Deucher 2013-10-21 17:24:30 UTC
Can you bisect?  Looks like it might be a duplicate of:

Comment 4 Teofilis.Martisius 2013-12-01 21:33:09 UTC
I can confirm that I have a similar issue on 3.12.0. I have Asus K73TA laptop with AMD APU A6-3400M and a discrete card Radeon 6550M.

VGA Switcheroo device was created successfully with 3.11, but disappeared on 3.12.0. Error from dmesg:

I'm not an experienced kernel developer. Please let me know if you need me to do any additional diagnostics.

I think the issue went away in Kernel 3.12.2. Vgaswitcheroo in /sys/kernel/debug 
does get created successfully and there are no "cut here" error traces in dmesg.

Comment 6 christian_obst 2013-12-04 23:55:47 UTC
It only crashes after disabling the DIS, did you try doing that? Because with me, it still happens in 3.12.2, just as it does in the previous releases.
Comment 7 Hohahiu 2013-12-06 01:20:29 UTC
The bug isn't fixed in 3.12.3 either.

3.13-rc3 dmesg output
Comment 9 madcatx 2013-12-08 15:52:49 UTC
This issue is still present in 3.13-rc3. dmesg (attached) suggests that the kernel successfully recovers from the error but once in tries to power the DIS down again it hits the same problem. The rest of the system works fine except for the endless waterfall of error dumps in dmesg.
Comment 10 christian_obst 2013-12-10 23:43:50 UTC
3.12.4 is also affected.
Comment 11 christian_obst 2013-12-13 19:08:15 UTC
And 3.12.5 ...
Comment 12 christian_obst 2013-12-23 19:54:31 UTC
Still present in 3.12.6.
Comment 13 Armin K 2013-12-24 18:53:12 UTC
I seem to have discovered the root of the issue.

I've just built 3.13-rc5 kernel which has the dynamic powering of the discrete gpu and all hell broke loose.

I've narrowed the error down to the pci hotplug driver. My machine loads shpchp pci hotplug driver from what I can see in lsmod output. But the trick is, that there is another pci hotplug driver, acpi pci hotplug one, which seems to break all hell loose here. Disabling it seems to fix everything for me, at least on kernel 3.13.

# CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_ACPI is not set

This kernel config option is the culprit for this, and that also can be seen from my backtrace:

[   22.731998]  [<ffffffff81343cb1>] ? acpiphp_check_bridge+0x72/0x88

So the trick behind this is that acpi pci hotplug driver conflicts with shpchp one that my machine uses. And since it is a builtin driver, and can't be built as module it is always loaded. The other possibility is that this machine doesn't support acpi hotplug, but does support shpc pci hotplug. We need a kernel workarround so that acpi pci hotplug is disabled and out of the way when shpc pci hotplug is enabled.
