Hey!
I am unable to rotate my screen to left or right using Skylake Integrated
Graphics with the
Option TearFree true
in the /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf

The screen turns black for a second, before returning to its previous
orientation.

Terminal output:
$ xrandr --output HDMI1 --rotate left
xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed

Simply turning the TearFree option to false enables the screen to be rotated
again.

I have installed the recommended 2017Q1 Intel Graphics Stack.

I have described the issue on the linuxgraphics forum where I also included the
full 20-intel.conf, lspci -v output and the Xorg.0.log
https://01.org/linuxgraphics/forum/update-tool-support-forum/
tearfree-and-screen-rotation

Do let me know if I have missed something simple to get this working, or if I
can provide any more logs our other output to help with the issue.

     sna: Force the shadow buffer even after we fail to set the crtc for TearFree

     As the first choice of orientation and tiling may be invalid, e.g.
     left/right rotation on Skylake, we need to force the second pass here to
     try and an alternate non-native rotation.

  Can confirm this got it working. Installed from the latest commit on
the master branch after verifying the changes in the mentioned commit
were in there.

You can also try the below patch for better performance, it will allow hardware rotation to be used:
