Serial console log of Linux 4.1

I found Intel-IOMMU.txt in Linux documentation says I should file a bug if intel_iommu=igfx_off fixes anything.


When using Linux 3.7 or later versions, characters on the screen become broken after the graphics driver is loaded. Here is the screenshot. It is the same as bug 90037, so I don't attach the screenshot again:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=115079

After the display server (Xorg or Wayland) is started, it shows more errors and crashes the system, so I cannot access the system to run dmesg or other commands. I will attach a serial console log instead.

git bisect says the bad commit is
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=398b7a1

If I use intel_iommu=igfx_off, there is no graphics problem.


I found some behavior differences between Linux 3.6 and Linux 3.7.

After doing git bisect again, I found the bad commit is
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=edef7e6

I hope it is more useful than the big merge commit.
Comment 2 Chris Wilson 2015-06-28 11:51:34 UTC
Can you please paste the output of lspci -s 0:0:2 -nvv?
Comment 3 Chris Wilson 2015-06-28 11:52:26 UTC
If you look in drivers/char/agp/intel-gtt.c, you will find the function needs_ilk_vtd_wa(). We need to work out why that is failing to match your machine.

This patch fixes the problem on my machine.
Comment 8 Ting-Wei Lan 2015-06-28 14:42:36 UTC
My system hangs and I have to press the reset button to reboot it now.

That panic is caused by the iommu not responding to the TLB flush. You're better chasing the iommu experts as to what the likely cause is and whether it is addressable.
Comment 10 Ting-Wei Lan 2015-07-02 18:33:12 UTC
I sent a message to Linux IOMMU list.

Comment 11 Ting-Wei Lan 2015-07-16 06:02:37 UTC
After upgrading to Linux 4.2-rc2, I see a lot of these messages in dmesg:

DMAR: DMAR:[DMA Write] Request device [00:02.0] fault addr <some_addr>
DMAR:[fault reason 05] PTE Write access is not set

There is no crash after running it for more than one hour. I will run the system longer to make sure that it really doesn't crash.

A dmesg log of Linux 4.2-rc2 is attached.

dmesg log of Linux 4.2-rc2 - kernel panic

It crashes after using it for more than two hours. A similar kernel panic backtrace is showed.

This is sad, but it will not get fixed (if it can be fixed) by keeping this bug open.
