Description Azari 2016-01-28 01:21:28 UTC 
I've had this lockup on this machine for the past few years, across several different kernel versions, different distributions, etc. Booting with KMS works fine, but the second a graphical environment starts (whether X or wayland-based), it locks up.

Booting Ubuntu with user-space mode-setting works, and then I can install FGLRX from there and everything works fine. After speaking with airlied on IRC, they suggested it could be a workaround that AMD has put into FGLRX that never made it into the opensource drivers, and that AMD might have to look into it.

lspci output with pci IDs for everything, from the machine in question.

I forgot to add the PCI ID for the GPU in the initial report, it's 1002:9644

I have also added an attachment with lspci output for all the other devices, as well as attachments of the dmesg ouput and the xorg log.

Does this kernel patch help?

I just finished compiling and testing a kernel with that patch; it didn't help, it still has the same issues. =(

Thanks for the prompt reply by the way.
Comment 6 Azari 2016-01-31 22:53:21 UTC 
I have something new to report after doing more testing.

It seems that if I launch weston with the pixman backend (weston --use-pixman), that works, but meanwhile, startx with 'exec twm' in .xinitrc doesn't work on first attempt, it causes the lockup.

However, after the lockup, if i try to startx again (still with twm), it suddenly works and i can start applications in twm and use the desktop. I managed to reproduce this with Xfce as well, the first 'startxfce4' after bootup will fail and lockup the GPU, and after it resets, I try again and Xfce works.

One thing of note is that when I finally do manage to get a DE started (after the GPU has locked up and reset once), glxinfo shows only "gallium on llvmpipe"; no hardware acceleration available.

So whatever is causing the lockup is something that X does at startup (even when a minimal X window manager like twm is used), but weston-pixman doesn't do.

Check your xorg log and make sure acceleration is enabled.

It seems that acceleration disables itself after the first startx attempt locks up the GPU:

I also uploaded another xorg log from the first attempt that causes the lockup, in case you want to see the difference between the two or something.
