I have tested it and it doesn't fix the hangs.
Yeah, thought so. Well it was just a guess.
(Also, I don't like the patch, because it reverts the behavior I added
for userspace buffers.)
Actually it shouldn't affect that. The alternative domain always
contains GART even when userspace only specified VRAM as placement (as
long as it is technical possible to do so).
So what should happen is that TTM sees the current placement, matches
that with the desired placement and should find that it doesn't need to
move the buffer (we should just test if this behavior really works as
expected).

Couldn't reproduce the issue so far. So the attached patch is just a
complete shoot into the dark found by rereading the code, but it might
actually be the problem.
Please give it a try.
Going to keep testing in the meantime,
Christian.

Sounds like the same issue to me. Thx for the good test case.
Any idea what is wrong with it?
Actually I already wondered that it went so smooth without any regression
so far, didn't noticed the bug in bugzilla.kernel.org yet.
Some of the tests allocate a lot of MSAA textures and the tests also
run in parallel, which creates a lot of memory pressure and probably
causes buffer evictions.
Sounds like the underlying problem to me. We probably evict some part of a
page table without updating the page directory. Going to dig into it today,
it's probably just a one liner missing somewhere in the VM code.

This commit which first appeared in 3.15-rc1 causes hangs on Bonaire:

The simplest way to reproduce the hangs is to run piglit with these
parameters:
-t texelFetch.fs
