I'm not exactly sure how to debug this; but basically, when I run OpenGL applications in windowed mode (i.e. not stretched over the entire rect), I get misaligned vsync (horizontal tearing). It still syncs to the monitor rate - it just misses the actual vblank by quite a bit. The horizontal tear location depends on the size and position of the window. For small enough window sizes, the issue becomes les pronounced and eventually goes away completely. I can reproduce it in at least two applications - mpv (my primary testing method) and glxgears (although it's more difficult to spot in glxgears due to the less ideal motion). The easiest way for me to reproduce it is by just running `mpv --no-config https://0x0.st/7AL.mkv`. I've tested a couple of mesa versions ranging from 17.0 to git master and could not identify a difference, so I'm not sure if it's a regression or just a plain bug. I'm also not sure if it's an issue in mesa or in the GPU driver. I did notice a lot of dmesg spam after startup, but that seems to be “normal”: e.g. [ +0.000304] DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 2 [ +0.000102] DMAR: [DMA Read] Request device [04:00.0] fault addr f4001aa000 [fault reason 06] PTE Read access is not set [ +0.000170] DMAR: [DMA Read] Request device [04:00.0] fault addr f4001af000 [fault reason 06] PTE Read access is not set [ +0.000169] DMAR: [DMA Read] Request device [04:00.0] fault addr f4001b5000 [fault reason 06] PTE Read access is not set ...

I also noticed this error showing up relatively often (several times a day, even while the machine is not in use): [Sep12 17:58] DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 40 [Sep12 17:59] DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 40 Not sure if that's related to anything. The device I'm using is a Sapphire RX 560, the kernel version is 4.12.4. I have no ~/.drirc and the `amdgpu` module settings are all left default. P.s. I also noticed a strange issue where starting mpv in fullscreen and then dragging the window to be slightly bigger causes it to start miscalculating the texture stride and dumping garbage data onto the screen. Unfortunately, I can't take a screenshot. I'm not sure if this is related, or a separated issue, but it may provide a hint.
