The theory then is that the GPU's are active across the load of the hibernation image and so before the GTT is updated the memory currently in use by the GPU is reused by the system. The key question then is the memory of boot kernel still in place during the hibernate restore phase? If we need to add a ->shutdown callback (if that is even called before hibernate restore) then we can only fix future kernels and are still susceptible to corruption when booing from old kernels. Any one familiar with the details of the hibernation restore? (And how much relates to kexec?) -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
