2.6.39-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------ From: Daniel J Blueman <[email protected]> commit 498e720b96379d8ee9c294950a01534a73defcf3 upstream. The failure appeared in dmesg as: [drm:i915_hangcheck_ring_idle] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... blt ring idle [waiting on 35064155, at 35064155], missed IRQ? This works around that problem on by making the blitter command streamer write interrupt state to the Hardware Status Page when a MI_USER_INTERRUPT command is decoded, which appears to force the seqno out to memory before the interrupt happens. v1->v2: Moved to prior interrupt handler installation and RMW flags as per feedback. v2->v3: Removed RMW of flags (by anholt) Signed-off-by: Daniel J Blueman <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <[email protected]> Tested-by: Chris Wilson <[email protected]> [v1] Tested-by: Eric Anholt <[email protected]> [v1,v3] (incidence of the bug with a testcase went from avg 2/1000 to 0/12651 in the latest test run (plus more for v1)) Tested-by: Kenneth Graunke <[email protected]> [v1] Tested-by: Robert Hooker <[email protected]> [v1] Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33394 Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_irq.c | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_irq.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_irq.c @@ -1567,6 +1567,16 @@ static void ironlake_irq_preinstall(stru drm_i915_private_t *dev_priv = (drm_i915_private_t *) dev->dev_private; I915_WRITE(HWSTAM, 0xeffe); + if (IS_GEN6(dev)) { + /* Workaround stalls observed on Sandy Bridge GPUs by + * making the blitter command streamer generate a + * write to the Hardware Status Page for + * MI_USER_INTERRUPT.
