Comment # 65
on bug 91880
from Julian
I've now tested the following configurations: sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; pcie_dpm_key_disabled = 0; thermal_sclk_dpm_enabled = 0; ==> LOCKS UP - this is the default configuration sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 1; mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 1; pcie_dpm_key_disabled = 1; thermal_sclk_dpm_enabled = 1; ==> NO LOCKUP sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; pcie_dpm_key_disabled = 1; thermal_sclk_dpm_enabled = 1; ==> LOCKS UP sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 1; pcie_dpm_key_disabled = 1; thermal_sclk_dpm_enabled = 1; ==> LOCKS UP sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 1; mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; pcie_dpm_key_disabled = 1; thermal_sclk_dpm_enabled = 1; ==> NO LOCKUP - however, I periodically checked /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/radeon_pm_info and mclk never actually changed (always 150000). Maybe mclk usually always changes based on sclk? With slck locked, mclk wouldn't change either, even if unlocked.

Sorry, I meant that I've searched the radeon source for the lines of code where the value was accessed from. I've only found instances of it being read, no instances of it being written to. But I won't put too much stock into that since I hardly know the code base at all. I plan to mess with the code a little now that I know how to compile single modules. If I find something substantial that this might be a bug, I'll open a new issue about it. > > > > Buuut using radeon.no_wb=1 doesn't help.

Newer hw does not support the necessary features to not support > wb. It's mainly a leftover from the early radeons. Thanks. Good to know.
