Thx for the suggestions. No, it does not respond to ping. radeon.dpm=0 does not help. But it only tells to use the old power management right ? So I tried: low, mid and high for /sys/class/drm/card0/device/prower_profile (and setting profile for power_mode) With radeon.dpm=1 I tried all values for power_dpm_state / power_dpm_force_performance_level. Same results. I also tried today amd-staging-4.9 branch and same result. Note that this also happens on W600 (verde), W9000 (tahiti) and W9100 (hawaii), with radeonsi driver. I have open a bug here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100465 . It contains a test to reproduce the freeze.
