Hi Lijo,

Not able to relate to how it affects gfx/mem DPM alone. Unless Alex
has other ideas, would you be able to enable drm debug messages and
share the log?

Sure, I'm happy to provide drm debug messages. Enabling everything
(0x1ff) generates *a lot* of log messages, though. Is there a smaller
subset that would be useful? Fwiw, I don't see much in the full drm logs
about the AMD GPU anyway; it's mostly about the Intel GPU.

All the messages in the system log containing "01:00" or "1002:6981" are
identical between the two versions.

I've posted below the only places in the logs which contain "amd". The
commit with the issue (f9b7f3703ff9) has a few drm log messages from
amdgpu which are not present in the logs for f1688bd69ec4.

Hi James,

Specifically, I was looking for any events happening at these two places because of the patch-

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.16/source/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_acpi.c#L411

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.16/source/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_acpi.c#L653

The patch specifically affects these two. On/before starting VM, if there are invocations of these two functions on your system as a result of the patch, we could navigate from there and check what is the side effect.

Thanks,
Lijo

Other things I'm willing to try if they'd be useful:

- I could update to the 21.Q4 Radeon Pro driver in the Windows VM. (The
   21.Q3 driver is currently installed.)

- I could set up a Linux guest VM with PCI passthrough to compare to the
   Windows VM and obtain more debugging information.

- I could build a kernel with a patch applied, e.g. to disable some of
   the changes in f9b7f3703ff9.

James
