Regression in v4.8-rc4: i915 flickering since commit 1c80c25fb6

2016-09-04 Thread Dominik Brodowski
Hi!

Since commit 1c80c25fb6 (determined by git bisect, and confirmed by
reverting this patch on top of 9ca581b50d), the sceen on my DELL XPS 13
is flickering every once in a while (sometimes multiple times per
second, sometimes only every few seconds).

That's for

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Broadwell-U Integrated 
Graphics (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: Dell Device 0665
Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- 
Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx+
Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- SERR- 
Kernel driver in use: i915

and Debian Jessie userland.

Best,
Dominik

Did a $ perf record -a -g sleep 10 , and that shows:

-  11,67%  kworker/1:1  [kernel.kallsyms]
   + native_read_tsc
   + delay_tsc

-   9,56%  kworker/3:2  [kernel.kallsyms]
   + native_read_tsc
   + delay_tsc

and other uninteresting things. 

   $ echo workqueue:workqueue_queue_work > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_event
   $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe

shows these top functions:

305 i915_hotplug_work_func
504 flush_to_ldisc
  14759 do_dbs_timer

so nothing of interest either. Interrupts: pretty normal.

Any ideas on how to debug this further?

Thanks & best,

Thunderbolt, Apple Monitor & MBA, and excess kworker load

2012-06-20 Thread Dominik Brodowski
Hi,

At work, I wish to attach a 27" Apple Display using thunderbolt to my Mac
Book Air 4,2 13". Using OS X, it works fine, but as I prefer using Linux, I
tested out Ubuntu's stock kernel and (among other) 3.5.0-rc3+ as of f40759e.
Hotplug doesn't work (known issue), but also with coldplug the display
reacts _very_ slow, way too slow for real use: The screen updates only every
half second or so. Is this a known bug? Might something go afoul with
kworker -- they need about 75% of the CPU with the large display attached,
and less than 1% _without_ the large display.

Any hints are most welcome, also on where I may dig further to determine the
root causes...

Thanks & best,

Dominik

indeed, setting CONFIG_LOGO=n makes it boot. Same as compiling nouveau as a
module. With all the different bisect results and reverts which make it
work, it seems to me to be a timing / interference issue...

Compiling it as a module seems to work fine. When I do so, no regression is
obvious from what gets reported in "dmesg". However, somehow I now do get
some output: The last message I see is

Thought about CCing Linus to show him that 2.6.39-rcX isn't as "calm"
to everyone, but then chose to CC Maciej instead: Would you be so kind and
add this to your regression list? Thanks!

Since commit 38f1cff

From: Dave Airlie 
Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2011 11:34:41 +1000
Subject: [PATCH] Merge commit '5359533801e3dd3abca5b7d3d985b0b33fd9fe8b' 
into dr

This commit changed an internal radeon structure, that meant a new driver
in -next had to be fixed up, merge in the commit and fix up the driver.

Also fixes a trivial nouveau merge.

Conflicts:
drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_mem.c

booting my atom/NM10/ION2 system crashes hard during boot, right after
blanking the screen, and before the initramfs gets loaded. I just
re-checked: both parent commits ( 5359533 and 4819d2e ) do indeed work
just fine, but the merge commit ( 38f1cff ) fails, same as tip ( 85f2e68 ).

My previous reports (Apr 03, Apr 07) seem to have gotten lost (or ignored,
or both).

Best,
Dominik

Hey,

After bisecting for a day, I'm pretty confident that the commit
38f1cff0863809587b5fd10ecd0c24c8b543a48c introduced an error which
causes one of my computers to hang during boot -- only a blank
screen appears. The initramfs never gets run.

The system consists of an Atom D525 with Intel NM10 + NVIDIA GT218/ION2

Hey,

After bisecting for a day, I'm pretty confident that the commit
38f1cff0863809587b5fd10ecd0c24c8b543a48c introduced an error which
causes one of my computers to hang during boot -- only a blank
screen appears. The initramfs never gets run.

The system consists of an Atom D525 with Intel NM10 + NVIDIA GT218/ION2
