After disable discrete graphics with:
echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch

nouveau drivers seems to react:

AFAICS this is the same issue as the one reported in the kernel bugzilla [1]. Can you try the patch [2] and let us know if you're still having problems.

Comment 2 Marcin Zajaczkowski 2014-11-20 23:31:52 UTC
Hello again. I upgraded my system to Fedora 21 and with 3.17.3-300.fc21.x86_64 I cannot reproduce mentioned issue (with "CPU#0 stuck for 22s").

Unfortunately I have problem with switching a discrete card. By default:
# echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
does nothing - a discrete card is still in DynPwr state:

$ $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
0:IGD:+:Pwr:0000:00:02.0
1:DIS: :DynPwr:0000:01:00.0

Booting with nouveau.runpm=0 I have both cards on:
$ $ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
0:IGD:+:Pwr:0000:00:02.0
1:DIS: :Pwr:0000:01:00.0

and after
# echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch

I have:
0:IGD:+:Pwr:0000:00:02.0
1:DIS: :Off:0000:01:00.0

Looks ok, but I still see 3 providers:
$ xrandr --listproviders
Providers: number : 3
Provider 0: id: 0x90 cap: 0xb, Source Output, Sink Output, Sink Offload crtcs: 3 outputs: 5 associated providers: 2 name:Intel
Provider 1: id: 0x63 cap: 0x7, Source Output, Sink Output, Source Offload crtcs: 2 outputs: 2 associated providers: 2 name:nouveau
Provider 2: id: 0x63 cap: 0x7, Source Output, Sink Output, Source Offload crtcs: 2 outputs: 2 associated providers: 2 name:nouveau

and system temperature could suggest that the card is still on. I see no messages from VGA switcheroo in the system log (as there were in 3.11.6).

When I use (on the second kernel) bbswitch with bumblebee I see only one provider and the temperature is a few (~6) degrees lower.

Should I close that issue and report another issue?

That's expected. What's unexpected is that something is keeping a reference to your GPU which isn't letting it power off. Similar to bug #70875.

That is odd... not sure what that situation is.

Yes, don't confuse multiple issues into one, it gets unwieldy.

Closing as not reproducible with 3.17.3-300.fc21.x86_64.

That's also a bug reported by me :).

I created bug 86503 with the problem with keeping the card On when reporting as Off.
