Hello everyone, I have experienced since few kernel releases some freezes of my PC. The freeze is totally random, it can happen two times in one hour or nothing for an entire week, and the open programs are never the same (except maybe for Chromium). Last week I had the time to bisect the problem to try to solve it, because I found that since few releases I get the following report on dmesg: [ 15.993547] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 15.993577] WARNING: at drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c:1028 intel_wait_for_pipe_off+0x11b/0x126 [i915]() [ 15.993579] Hardware name: 5129CTO [ 15.993581] pipe_off wait timed out [ 15.993582] Modules linked in: vboxpci(O) vboxnetadp(O) vboxnetflt(O) vboxdrv(O) snd_hda_codec_hdmi snd_hda_codec_conexant i915 snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec snd_hwdep drm_kms_helper [ 15.993593] Pid: 1566, comm: X Tainted: G O 3.8.1 #1 [ 15.993595] Call Trace: [ 15.993604] [<c102b501>] warn_slowpath_common+0x68/0x7d [ 15.993617] [<f862bffb>] ? intel_wait_for_pipe_off+0x11b/0x126 [i915] [ 15.993621] [<c102b589>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x2b/0x2f [ 15.993635] [<f862bffb>] intel_wait_for_pipe_off+0x11b/0x126 [i915] [ 15.993649] [<f862c11b>] intel_disable_pipe+0x115/0x11d [i915] [ 15.993662] [<f862c6ab>] ironlake_crtc_disable+0xb2/0x688 [i915] [ 15.993677] [<f8631e84>] intel_set_mode+0x398/0x7b0 [i915] [ 15.993683] [<c104c0b7>] ? should_resched+0x8/0x22 [ 15.993688] [<c1538632>] ? _cond_resched+0xd/0x21 [ 15.993694] [<c10f3317>] ? __getblk+0x28/0x282 [ 15.993697] [<c10f24af>] ? __find_get_block_slow+0x11c/0x12a [ 15.993713] [<f863277a>] intel_crtc_set_config+0x4de/0x651 [i915] [ 15.993718] [<c12bcde2>] drm_mode_setcrtc+0x34b/0x39d [ 15.993721] [<c12bca97>] ? drm_mode_setplane+0x27a/0x27a [ 15.993725] [<c12b217b>] drm_ioctl+0x275/0x323 [ 15.993727] [<c12bca97>] ? drm_mode_setplane+0x27a/0x27a [ 15.993730] [<c12b1f06>] ? drm_version+0x8b/0x8b [ 15.993734] [<c10dcc84>] vfs_ioctl+0x20/0x2a [ 15.993736] [<c10dd656>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x3eb/0x429 [ 15.993740] [<c10d1598>] ? fsnotify_modify+0x48/0x53 [ 15.993743] [<c10d122e>] ? wait_on_retry_sync_kiocb+0x44/0x44 [ 15.993745] [<c10d18ff>] ? vfs_write+0x8a/0xac [ 15.993748] [<c10dd6d5>] sys_ioctl+0x41/0x60 [ 15.993751] [<c1539274>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb [ 15.993753] ---[ end trace fe4cfed2900ae9cb ]--- Then after the bisect the following is the first commit that trigger this warning: 284637d9229dc1115947bb04008730844afbc059 is the first bad commit commit 284637d9229dc1115947bb04008730844afbc059 Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jul 9 09:51:57 2012 +0200 drm/i915: WARN if the pipe won't turn off This seems to be the symptom of a few neat bugs, hence be more obnoxious when this fails. So, it seems that there is some other bug somewhere. If you have any idea or you need more tests from me I'm happy to figure it out. Currently I am using the kernel 3.8.1, but I would like to test the latest git soon if someone has already solved it or not.
