I apologize if the name callout is disconcerting. I was trying to follow instructions for sending bugs and saw your name listed as the owner of this code area. 

FYI, I'd done some more troubleshooting and tinkering regarding the crashing and Mate seems to be at the center of all the issues. As a result, I also opened an Issue with the Mate Desktop team (https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-panel/issues/1242). Mate also has a power management component, which is probably responsible for the excess logging and the confusion over Navil10. However, I have no way to vouch for now accurately the Mate PM applet gathered data for its instantiation. I have no external devices connected that I'm aware would use it since I thought that was via HDMI. I *do* have a Jabra Evolve2 headset that uses the TypeC USB connector, but I assume that's not using the GPU.

The issue documentation I left with Mate notes that if I launch apps from a terminal that is NOT launched from the Mate panel (right-click on desktop instead to open terminal), the parent for all the apps (Firefox, Evolution, etc.) is separate from Mate (at least separate from mate-panel). Everything has worked fine (except for the constant logging of the wake-up action) since I've done that (and turned off the screensaver and screensaver lock). So, I'm not sure what else to do at this point. Please advise if I should do anything on the driver side.

Thanks,
Tim

Hi Felix,

I'm not sure why you're calling me out by name. I'm not working on
anything obviously related to your crashes.

Anyway, I took a quick look at the backtraces. They all point at libgdk.
Two of them are segfaults, one is an abort. It's not clear how these
would be related to the GPU driver. That said, when you boot with
nomodeset, the GPU driver and all HW acceleration is completely
disabled. If that makes the problem disappear, the GPU driver is clearly
involved in the problem in some way.

The abort points at a problem while freeing memory. This could be caused
by a double-free problem in some unrelated code, possibly related to the
GPU driver. This would be a problem in a user mode component (maybe
Mesa), not the kernel mode driver.

I believe the messages you're seeing when you move the mouse are the
result of runtime power management that puts the GPU to sleep when it's
idle and reinitializes it when it's needed. You have 2 GPUs in your
laptop, an integrated Renoir GPU in the Ryzen CPU, and an external
Navi10 GPU for higher gaming performance. The GPU that goes to sleep and
wakes up is the external Navi10 GPU.

The OpenGL renderer string specifies "RENOIR". Therefore I'm surprised
that the Navi10 GPU wakes up when you move the mouse. Ideally it
shouldn't be used at all when you're just using the desktop.

If you suspect that runtime power management is responsible for your
problems, you could disable it with amdgpu.runpm=0 on the kernel command
line. That means the Navi10 GPU won't go into the low power mode and
drain your battery more quickly. So this is not a permanent solution.
Just an experiment to narrow down the problem.

Regards,
  Felix



I'm not sure how to do this as I haven't had to report a bug before.
I've looked to a variety of bug reporting sites to see if anyone else
is running into the same issues that I'm having (such as the Mate
project) and haven't seen anything at all similar to the issue I'm
having. Since I had issues with AMD drivers with my distro (info
below) and some consistent and high volume dmesg content shows up,
I've decided that I should start here with the AMD kernel team.

I have a fairly new MSI laptop with the following configuration:

If I am using it interactively, I get random crashes that seems to hit
elements of mate (mate-panel, etc.) 
consistently - just not predictably. LibreOffice applications, xed,
Firefox, and Evolution seem to be more prone
to crashing the X session. I can easily move to tty1, login, and kill
services running in tty7 as the crashes
don't appear to completely kill tty7. Sometimes, I can kill mate and
launch a new instance to salvage
the tty7 session. However, i usually end up having to kill the root
pid of the xwindows session in order
to re-login. But I think this is related to the AMD GPU driver because
every  time I simply move the mouse in 
tty7 session, I get the following in dmesg:

If I boot with nomodeset, I can operate fine - just without screen
brightness control, etc. It just
seems strange that an event is generated like this all the time.

I only get sporadic crashes, though. Humorously, I've been running
only Firefox, crash reporter and
Mate Terminal this morning and it's run fine for over 4 hours. There
were times when I wouldn't run
anything at all and it's lock up on me. So I just can't find any
common denominator for this (using vi 
in terminal to type this - going to copy-paste into email client
[Evolution] once I'm done this).

I've attached 3 crash reports that were captured on the system over
the last couple days. I apologize
in advance - profusely! - if the problem turns out to be somewhere else. 

Thanks,
Tim
