[PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: re-enable semaphores by default

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

 



Hi Daniel,

ok after an rlogin from a remote machine I've managed to find exzessive syslog dumps (10+MB) repeating the following message:

Nov 18 19:26:45 gonzo kernel: [?? 81.266864] DRHD: handling fault status reg 3
Nov 18 19:26:45 gonzo kernel: [?? 81.266876] DMAR:[DMA Write] Request device [00:02.0] fault addr 2101f0000
Nov 18 19:26:45 gonzo kernel: [?? 81.266879] DMAR:[fault reason 05] PTE Write access is not set

More detailed log attached. Maybe this helps? I've also attached my kernel .config in case I did something stupid there ;-)

Too bad that bugzilla on kernel.org is still down. lkml is quite busy :(

Regards
Nic

>> One other thing still remains: Since the merges for kernel 3.2 came in late october, my cpu/gpu seems to run hotter (approx 10 ?C) when idling and after some minutes the cpu load goes up on all cores but the cpu frequency stays low (800 MHz) as well as the gpu (650MHz) and the system is responding well. Yet still additional 5-8 watts are drained from the power supply. Something has to throttle up :(. Oprofile shows that the kernel somewhere hogs the cpu (see dump below). This happens with every kernel from 3.1 up to latest linux-next. I wasn't able to track the bug down yet so I guess I'll better file a bug report on lkml to get someone to verify this.
