           Summary: KMS Kills 3D performance with Linux-2.6.33>rc6
           Product: DRI
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
               URL: http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21930
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: DRM/Radeon
        AssignedTo: dri-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: lmil...@gmx.net


I am testing the Radeon open source stack with the Kubuntu Lucid (10.04)
current packages. Up to 2.6.33rc6, 3D performance has been good (3D games would
be playable). Starting with rc7, 3D performance is gone: 3D games get less than
a frame per second, even scrolling the mouse pointer is painfully slow. 

It appears that KMS was not working up until rc6, and it started working in
rc7. Disabling KMS in rc7 or rc8 solves the performance issue. This could be a
kernel regression, or a problem with KMS in my graphics stack. I'll post more
detailed info below.

Software:

Display Server: X.Org Server 1.7.3.902 (1.7.4 RC 2)
Display Driver: radeon 6.12.99
Kernel: 2.6.33rc7 64bit (from Ubuntu's mainline ppa)

Hardware: 

Radeon HD 3450
AMD Phenom X3
