Description Jan Vesely 2015-02-09 19:35:06 UTC
booting linux 3.19.0 fails to init nvd9 card with these messges in dmesg:

Comment 1 René Krell 2015-02-23 14:46:17 UTC
I can confirm this also for kernel 3.19.0 on OpenSUSE Factory for a HP ZBook 5, NVIDIA Corporation GK208GLM [Quadro K610M].
See https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=919036
Comment 2 René Krell 2015-03-19 12:14:17 UTC
Some patch available?
Increased the severity to Critical since this prevents systems using nouveau from booting completely.

This patch fixes the issue for me.

I think I see what might be going on here.(In reply to Jan Vesely from comment #3)

I think I know what might be going on here, but I want to confirm before trying a different fix.  Can you grab /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/vbios.rom (replace the "0" for whichever is nouveau) and attach it here please?  You'll need to use your current patch to do this, obviously.

Thanks.

Does your patch still work for you with the change to subdev/bios/shadow.c reverted (so, just keep the > to >= changes in shadowacpi.c) too?

It does, in fact I only need the change in acpi_read_slow (read_fast fails on my machine anyway #55948).

Ok, good, thanks.  I'll submit a modified version of your patch with a more full explanation and to only do the ACPI changes.  The fast path will possibly have the same bug too under certain circumstances, so I'll keep that.

Thank you again.
Comment 9 René Krell 2015-04-23 21:17:12 UTC
I tried the > to >= changes just in shadowacpi.c like advised on the OpenSUSE build system, kernel 4.0.0. Before that, in 3.19 I had the same error like originally reported, with the recommended fix I still get in trouble on a HP ZBook 15:

Thanks. I see it went to 4.1. Should I send email to linux-stable to add it to 3.19 and 4.0?
Comment 11 Ilia Mirkin 2015-10-22 03:20:30 UTC
OP's issue is fixed. René, I believe your issue is bug 91402 -- a bunch of HP Zbook users there having trouble.

Hello Ilia, I cannot see any reference for a fix there. Bug 91402 is still marked NEW. Will this fix land in kernel 4.3 final?
Comment 13 René Krell 2015-10-22 07:21:36 UTC
Update: The nouveau driver still doesn't work on my ZBook 15 using kernel 4.2.3.

Not aware of a fix for it. That's why it's still open and new. But it's your issue, rather than this one :) Add yourself to CC on it to receive any updates. This issue (i.e. Jan's problem) is resolved.

Sorry, you're right.
There's another one open, see bug 90626.
