There is not much you can do on the kernel side about that. (Besides sanity checking the whole command stream, I'm not shure what currently is done in that regard). But even if you manage to do that, userspace could still try to exploit bugs in the gpu silicon. If everything humps along as good as before, I'd say the kernel has done his homework. Under that assumption this bug will be closed as a userspace bug and thus invalid for the kernel. On the other hand, if you manage to find a kernel > 2.6.32 which does not exhibit the problem, we should probably revisit that assumption. You might try to upgrade your userspace graphics stack and you could probably take a look at bugzilla.freedesktop.org and file a bug there. I guess there are many of those, as the symptom (gpu lockup) would fit a lot of userspace bugs. But if you are able to reproduce this, it might even have a chance to get fixed over there. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What You Don't Know About Data Connectivity CAN Hurt You This paper provides an overview of data connectivity, details its effect on application quality, and explores various alternative solutions. http://p.sf.net/sfu/progress-d2d -- _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list Dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
