Description Iago Toral 2015-09-24 08:52:04 UTC 
Running piglit's shader tests (~14000 tests) while forcing spilling on the vec4 backend (INTEL_DEBUG=spill_vec4) produces at least one GPU hang (for me this happens consistently around test 10400). Also, I see a lot of tests that stop passing, even before the GPU hang, which points at something seriously broken. The FS backend is not affected, even if INTEL_DEBUG=spill_fs is used to force spilling.

All this is with current master (1614c39a8fc205)

To reproduce:

INTEL_DEBUG=spill_vec4 ./piglit-run.py tests/shader results/shader

I'll see if I can add more info, at least the specific test triggering the hang.

Native code producing the GPU hang

The test triggering the GPU hang is 'vs-loop-bounds-unrolled.shader_test'. The attachment includes the native VS code dump when spilling is forced. I'll try to look into it tomorrow.
Comment 2 Iago Toral 2015-09-25 13:09:27 UTC 
Some additional information:

The hang happens because scratch reads/writes are not working properly for some reason. In this particular test, the GPu hang is the result of an infinite loop because variables involved in the loop condition are always read a value of 0 when unspilled.

I have been reviewing the ILK docs and the implementation but I have not found anything wrong with it yet. I'll attach a minimum shader_test program reproducing the problem soon.

Minimal native code reproducing the problem

This is the native code for the minimal example I just attached, forcing spilling only for the the variable "sum". Since that variable is not part of the loop condition the program won't hang, but we still get an incorrect result (sum is 0). Notice that in this case the problem is limited to just one spill/unspill operation that does not work well for some reason.
Comment 5 Rhys Kidd 2016-06-05 15:32:06 UTC 
I attempted to recreate this with spilling on ILK with a more recent Mesa. As Iago outlined with the minimal reproducer test, the shader_test didn't hang but it did fail with INTEL_DEBUG=spill_vec4.
