Hello
While somewhat oldish hw (T61, 4G, C2D) - I've now witnessed new crash with
Xorg:
(happened while reopening iconified Firefox window - running 'standard'
rawhide -nodebug kernel 5.19.0-0.rc2.21.fc37.x86_64)
Hello
Ok, I think I now know what is behind this BUG/crash of intel graphics -
interestingly it took me a few weeks to realize this.
So I've actually installed with some Rawhide update 'zram-generator' package
to use zram swap to help with memory of Firefox & Thunderbird a bit with this
4G RAM laptop. All worked fine. However side effect of usage of ZRAM swapping
became actually this occasional kernel BUG hitting.
When I've stopped using Zram swap - it now runs for 2 weeks without a
single deadlock - with single or dual screen monitor setup with many suspends
& resumes in between.
So I'm likely 100% sure that ZRAM usage is triggering this issue. While I
know this laptop is old and likely with low memory and so on - no sure if it's
worth to solve it - maybe good enough solution is to issue a warning user
should no comibine this old piece with ZRAM - but I'm all open to do some
testing for fix - although I still don't have a simple triggering path for
this issue to happen within short period of time.
Maybe driver is missing tomark some pages as pined into memory so ZRAM can't
swap them out ?.
