RE: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: fix ring test failure issue during s3 in vce 3.0

["Li, Ching-shih (Louis)" <Ching-shih.Li@xxxxxxx>]

I don’t mean to read it twice. The solution is to make first read later. I didn’t modify the original code to make code difference less and simple. I guess it should work to remove the original read there.

Above is original code, rptr is updated when called, and below is your patch, my question is why do you need to get rptr twice?

Hi Leo,

 

Yes, I confirm it is the root cause for the Chrome S3 issue. Whenever system is resumed, the original instruction always gets zero. However, I have no idea why it fails, and didn’t verify this problem on CRB or any other Linux platform yet.

Although I think the ideal solution is an indicator, e.g. a register, for driver to check if related firmware and hardware are ready to work. So driver can make sure it is ok to read rptr. Without any reference document, I can only try to solve the problem by modifying driver. Debug traces reveal that only first rptr read fails, but the read in check loop is ok. Therefore, a solution comes to mind: to update rptr later for initial rptr value. Tests prove it working in Chrome platforms. Fyi~

 

BR,

Louis

[What]

vce ring test fails consistently during resume in s3 cycle, due to

mismatch read & write pointers.

On debug/analysis its found that rptr to be compared is not being

correctly updated/read, which leads to this failure.

Below is the failure signature:

  [drm:amdgpu_vce_ring_test_ring] *ERROR* amdgpu: ring 12 test failed

  [drm:amdgpu_device_ip_resume_phase2] *ERROR* resume of IP block <vce_v3_0> failed -110

  [drm:amdgpu_device_resume] *ERROR* amdgpu_device_ip_resume failed (-110).

[How]

fetch rptr appropriately, meaning move its read location further down

in the code flow.

With this patch applied the s3 failure is no more seen for >5k s3 cycles,

which otherwise is pretty consistent.

The rptr update is there:

        uint32_t rptr = amdgpu_ring_get_rptr(ring);

Are you sure this is the root cause?
