Same here. Also happening to this person: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97293#c0. They are subtle variations, so posted all I’ve got.

I haven’t found any consequences of this warning, just noticed them in dmesg.

I am also seeing this same issue on an i7-6700K desktop after upgrading to v4.8. I never saw the issue in the 4.7.y series. It coincides with the screen going black for about a second and returning.

The screen going black could be related to that *ERROR*.

I'm seeing something similar too (but it coincides with a very quick, well, flashing of the screen). In my case it looks independent of this annoying WARNING. Ie, most of these WARNINGs happen without a nearby FIFO underrun *ERROR* and vice versa.

I'm not seeing that. My guess is that it is unrelated to this issue.

0) Partial copy of my message at http://lkml.kernel.org/r/<1477342074.1872.24.camel@tiscali.nl> :

1) So I used the most reliable debugging tool that I actually
understand: printk():

2) This taught me that crtc_clock always is 373250 on my machine. cdclk
mostly is 450000, but every now and then it briefly is 337500.

3) Now the interesting pattern is that cdclk drops to 337500 only after
two quick calls of skl_max_scale() with cdclk set to 450000, and a
roughly 300ms pause before the third call of that function. Example:

<7>[23758.501933] i915: cdclk >= crtc_clock: 450000 >= 373250
<7>[23758.515211] i915: cdclk >= crtc_clock: 450000 >= 373250
<7>[23758.869057] i915: cdclk < crtc_clock: 337500 < 373250

This pattern of cdclk being 337500 after roughly 300ms is surprisingly
stable.

4) So _perhaps_ there's some roughly 300ms timeout, somehow, somewhere,
that sets cdclk to 337500 and triggers this issue. Ideas?

dmesg with drm.debug=14 and running my small debugging patch

Jani Nikula requested I "attach dmesg [..] with drm.debug=14 and running your patch".

It is the part of dmesg that includes a typical WARN_ON_ONCE(). The interesting stuff is between timestamp 6382 and 6387.

I have no idea what explains the large jump between timestamp 6387 and timestamp 7513. AFK?

[PATCH] drm/i915: Fix cdclk vs. dev_cdclk mess when not recomputing  things

This could fix it, I think. Please test.

@Ville,

0) Your patch builds and boots fine. On top of v4.8.4, that is.

1) So far so good. I'll only report success if the WARN_ON_ONCE() isn't hit before v4.8.5 is released (which means I'll test this patch for about a day and a half).

(In reply to Paul Bolle from comment #13)

I'm about to reboot in v4.8.5 and can report success! No WARN_ON_ONCE was triggered in over a day and a half of uptime. (The FIFO underrun error is still there, so I'm positive it's a separate issue.)

This qualifies as a "Tested-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl>", I guess.

Have fun writing a real commit explanation!

I can also confirm the patch got rid of the warning for me as well, but not the underruns.

The FIFO underrun must be something separate, since I don’t have any.

Reference to Ville's patch : https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/14540/

Also seeing this issue on a intel NUC 6th gen on Fedora 24 which has just updated to 4.8.*.

Also see screen flicker and see this in dmesg:

any idea if this would be go upstream soon?
I confirm I got the same problem on Archlinux / Parabola and the only option is to go back to 4.7.X :(

Looks like I forgot to close the bug when I pushed the patch:

    drm/i915: Fix cdclk vs. dev_cdclk mess when not recomputing things

A second small fix was also needed:
