[RFC PATCH] drm/amd/display: fix bandwidth validation failure on DCN 2.1

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



IGT `amdgpu/amd_color/crtc-lut-accuracy` fails right at the beginning of
the test execution, during atomic check, because DC rejects the
bandwidth state for a fb sizing 64x64. The test was previously working
with the deprecated dc_commit_state(). Now using
dc_validate_with_context() approach, the atomic check needs to perform a
full state validation. Therefore, set fast_validation to false in the
dc_validate_global_state call for atomic check.

Hi,

It's a long story. I was inspecting this bug report:
- https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/2016
and noticed the IGT test `igt@amdgpu/amd_color@crtc-lut-accuracy`
mentioned there wasn't even being executed on a laptop with DCN 2.1
(HP HP ENVY x360 Convertible 13-ay1xxx/8929). The test fails right at
the beginning due to an atomic check rejection, as below:

Starting subtest: crtc-lut-accuracy
(amd_color:14772) igt_kms-CRITICAL: Test assertion failure function igt_display_commit_atomic, file ../lib/igt_kms.c:4530:

Stack trace:

  #5 ../csu/libc-start.c:128 __libc_start_main@@GLIBC_2.34()
  #6 [_start+0x21]
Subtest crtc-lut-accuracy failed.

Checking dmesg, we can see that a bandwidth validation failure causes
the atomic check rejection:

[  711.147663] amdgpu 0000:04:00.0: [drm] Mode Validation Warning: Unknown Status failed validation.
[  711.147667] [drm:amdgpu_dm_atomic_check [amdgpu]] DC global validation failure: Bandwidth validation failure (BW and Watermark) (13)
[  711.147772] [drm:amdgpu_irq_dispatch [amdgpu]] Unregistered interrupt src_id: 243 of client_id:8
[  711.148033] [drm:amdgpu_dm_atomic_check [amdgpu]] Atomic check failed with err: -22

I also noticed that the atomic check doesn't fail if I change the fb
width and height used in the test from 64 to 66, and I can get the test
execution back (and with success). However, I recall that all test cases
of IGT `amd_color` were working in the past, so I bisected and found the
first bad commit:

b8272241ff9d drm/amd/display: Drop dc_commit_state in favor of dc_commit_streams

Bringing the `dc_commit_state` machinery back also prevents the
bandwidth validation failure, but the commit above says
dc_commit_streams validation is more complete than dc_commit_state, so I
discarded this approach.

After some debugging and code inspection, I found out that avoiding fast
validation on dc_validate_global_state during atomic check solves the
issue, but I'm not sure if this change may affect performance. I
compared exec time of some IGT tests and didn't see any differences, but
I recognize it doesn't provide enough evidence.

What do you think about this change? Should I examine other things? Do
you see any potential issue that I should investigate? Could you
recommend a better approach to assess any side-effect of not enabling
fast validation in the atomic check?

Please, let me know your thoughts.

Happy New Year!

Melissa
