From: Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni@xxxxxxxxx> Our driver initialization doesn't seem to be ready to load when the power well is disabled: we hit a few "Unclaimed register" messages. So do just like we already do for the suspend/resume path: enable the power well before unloading. At some point we'll want to be able to survive suspend/resume and load/unload with the power well disabled, but for now let's just fix the regression. Regression introduced by the following commit: commit bf51d5e2cda5d36d98e4b46ac7fca9461e512c41 Author: Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jul 3 17:12:13 2013 -0300 drm/i915: switch disable_power_well default value to 1 Bug can be reproduced by running the "module_reload" script from intel-gpu-tools.

Also please notice we have other problems that happen when we run module_reload (e.g., gpu hang, no backlight, lockdep error message, eventual oops), this patch fixes only the "Unclaimed register" errors. diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_dma.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_dma.c index b30404d..d2dc02b 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_dma.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_dma.c @@ -1688,8 +1688,13 @@ int i915_driver_unload(struct drm_device *dev) intel_gpu_ips_teardown(); - if (HAS_POWER_WELL(dev)) + if (HAS_POWER_WELL(dev)) { + /* The i915.ko module is still not prepared to be loaded when + * the power well is not enabled, so just enable it in case + * we're going to unload/reload. */ + intel_set_power_well(dev, true); i915_remove_power_well(dev); + } i915_teardown_sysfs(dev); -- 1.8.1.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
