Hi Michel,
About the hard lockup, I noticed that I cannot have it with the following
conditions:
1. soft lockup fix (the 0->i change which avoids infinite loop)
2. Your suggestion: (!(rbo->flags & RADEON_GEM_CPU_ACCESS)
3. radeon.gartsize=512 radeon.vramlimit=1024 (any other values above do not
help, for example (1024, 1024) or (1024, 2048))
Without 1 and 2, but with 3, our test reproduces the soft lockup (just
discovered few days ago).
Without 3 (and with or without 1., 2.), our test reproduces the hard lockup
which one does not give any info in kern.log (sometimes some NUL ^@
characters but not always).
We are converting this repro test to a piglit test in order to share it but
it will take some times. But to simplify it continuously uploads images
with a size picked randomly and up to 4K. So TTM's eviction mechanism is
hit a lot.
(The card is a ForePro W600 Cape Verde 2048M )
I am happy to try any other suggestion.
Thx
Julien
