This patch partially reverts commit 36ec8f877481449bdfa072e6adf2060869e2b970 for IvyBridge CPUs. The original commit results in repeated 'Timed out waiting for forcewake old ack to clear' messages on a Supermicro C7H61 board (BIOS version 2.00 and 2.00b) with i7-3770K CPU. It ultimately results in a hangup if the system is highly loaded. Reverting the commit for IvyBridge CPUs fixes the issue. Issue a warning if the CPU is IvyBridge and mt forcewake is disabled, since this condition can result in secondary issues. v2: Only revert patch for Ivybridge CPUs Issue info message if mt forcewake is disabled on Ivybridge Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60541 Cc: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66139 Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c | 31 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 30 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c @@ -4510,9 +4510,38 @@ void intel_gt_init(struct drm_device *de if (IS_VALLEYVIEW(dev)) { dev_priv->gt.force_wake_get = vlv_force_wake_get; dev_priv->gt.force_wake_put = vlv_force_wake_put; - } else if (IS_IVYBRIDGE(dev) || IS_HASWELL(dev)) { + } else if (IS_HASWELL(dev)) { dev_priv->gt.force_wake_get = __gen6_gt_force_wake_mt_get; dev_priv->gt.force_wake_put = __gen6_gt_force_wake_mt_put; + } else if (IS_IVYBRIDGE(dev)) { + u32 ecobus; + + /* IVB configs may use multi-threaded forcewake */ + + /* A small trick here - if the bios hasn't configured + * MT forcewake, and if the device is in RC6, then + * force_wake_mt_get will not wake the device and the + * ECOBUS read will return zero.
