I wish I had some easy way to reproduce this with some widely-available software, but I'm not sure what would count.

The setup:

- I'm trying to play The Witcher Enhanced Edition
- Running under Wine 1.7.49
- Mesa 10.6.3
- Xorg 2.99.917
- Linux 4.1.0
- Debian Testing
- Intel Ivy Bridge i5-3570K CPU, with HD4000 graphics

Steps to reproduce (on my machine):

- Start the game
- Load my usual saved game
- Sometimes, once the initial loading screen's progress bar gets to the 99% mark, the hard-drive light stops flickering and the progress will pause for 10 seconds or so and then crash to desktop
- Sometimes the game loads properly, but later I'll be moving from one zone to another and *that* loading screen will pause and crash.
- Generally, I can't play the game for more than 5-10 minutes before a crash occurs.
- This same problem also occurs with another game called Path of Exile, in a similar fashion: every loading screen has some percentage chance to pause and crash.

Effects:
- When I start the game from a terminal, after a crash it displays the following message:

    intel_do_flush_locked failed: Input/output error

- /var/log/messages receives this message:

[  807.367059] [drm] stuck on render ring
[  807.367363] [drm] GPU HANG: ecode 7:0:0x85fffff8, in witcher.EXE [4865], reason: Ring hung, action: reset

[  813.366337] drm/i915: Resetting chip after gpu hang

- If I restart the game and try again, it'll crash again (usually faster), and after a few iterations eventually the console stops responding to anything but the Alt-SysRq keys (although I can SSH in from another computer and everything seems to be running fine) and I have to reboot.

Because I'm using Debian Testing, it's a bit difficult to say when this started. My recollection is that everything worked fine under Mesa 10.4, but these errors started appearing after Debian upgraded to Mesa 10.5. Of course, Debian was changing all kinds of stuff around that time, so it might have been anything.

I can reproduce a similar behavior in Total War: Shogun2.
GPU hangs and "intel_do_flush_locked failed: Input/output error" is printed in the terminal. Hopefully it is the same bug, however for me this is 100% reproducible.

I've managed to bisect it to:

Tim can you confirm this with your testcases?

It can be reproduced with this trace: http://pavel.ondracka.cz/Shogun2.trace

Why do you believe it's the same bug? Are Shogun2 and Witcher based on the same engine or something?

I couldn't get a hang by running this trace on Haswell, but I did confirm that 3 of the shaders were affected (hurt, actually...) by the patch you bisected the problem to.

I'll see if I can get someone to run the trace on BDW, and I'll look more closely at the differences in the shaders to see if we're doing something suspicious.

Well, I found this bug when I searched for "intel_do_flush_locked failed: Input/output error" in bugzilla, and the symptoms looked very similar to me. Same error, GPU hang, also regression, both running under wine...
If this is not enough, I'll open a new bug.

That's the error /whenever/ there's a GPU hang. It's not more specific than that. You should open a new bug. :)

OK, didn't know that. I've opened a new bug 92234, and added you to CC.

Tim, I'm sorry about spamming your bug.
