Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 1/1] drm/amdgpu: fall back to MMIO TLB invalidation when KIQ is unresponsive
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 12:57:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260820105716.148732-2-pisarevden@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260820105716.148732-1-pisarevden@gmail.com>
After resume from S4 (hibernation) on gmc_v9 parts with GFXOFF
(observed on Cezanne / Ryzen 7 PRO 5850U, kernel 7.1.8), KIQ-based TLB
flushes start failing at the moment of the thaw and keep failing for
hours of normal desktop use:
amdgpu 0000:07:00.0: failed to write reg 28b4 wait reg 28c6
amdgpu 0000:07:00.0: failed to write reg 1a6f4 wait reg 1a706
(80-140 errors/hour measured over 9+ hours; bugzilla 219492). The KIQ
ring stays sched.ready throughout, so readiness does not reflect the
state of the hardware in this failure mode.
Two problems follow from the current code: every failed flush burns
the full ~5 s KIQ retry window before erroring out (desktop-wide
sluggishness), and the invalidation is then silently dropped (stale
TLBs - correctness).
Make the failure observable and self-healing:
- amdgpu_gmc_fw_reg_write_reg_wait() returns 0/-ETIME, propagates MES
errors, and counts consecutive failures per KIQ instance
- gmc_v9_0_flush_gpu_tlb() falls back to a new
gmc_v9_0_flush_gpu_tlb_mmio() helper (the former pre-KIQ MMIO code,
now with irqsave locking since it is reachable at runtime) when the
KIQ submit fails, so the invalidation is no longer dropped
- after AMDGPU_KIQ_FLUSH_MAX_FAIL (3) consecutive failures the KIQ
path is skipped entirely until the counter resets, so wedged systems
stop paying the 5 s retry window per flush
- the MMIO fallback is restricted to process context on bare metal:
amdgpu_gfx_off_ctrl() is used to hold the GC block awake across the
direct register access (it may sleep), and SR-IOV VFs keep
proxying through KIQ as before
- the counter resets on every success and in gmc_v9_0_hw_fini(); every
suspend/resume cycle re-arms the KIQ path; nothing is disabled
proactively
Changes since v1 (addressing the sashiko-bot review):
- hold GFXOFF off around runtime MMIO access (was: unguarded - could
hit power-gated registers)
- per-KIQ-instance failure counter instead of a global one (multi-XCC
cross-talk)
- invalidate_lock is now taken irqsave (the path is runtime-reachable)
- VFs and interrupt context never take the runtime MMIO fallback
- MES path errors are propagated instead of hardcoded success
- reworded the threshold warning to not promise a fallback that
gmc_v10/v11/v12 do not implement
Known limitation / open question: a KIQ command that already timed out
stays queued in the ring; if the ring recovers late it could emit a
duplicate invalidation concurrently with a CPU MMIO flush. The command
is semantically an idempotent invalidate, but reviewer input on
whether the req/ack handshake needs protection here is welcome.
gmc_v10/v11/v12 call sites are unchanged and compile-safe (int return
used as statement). They can get the same fallback once the approach
is agreed for gmc_v9.
The sibling PASID path (amdgpu_gmc_flush_gpu_tlb_pasid) already has an
-ETIME/MMIO split; this brings the per-VMID path in line with it.
Root-cause note: with GFXOFF held off across the S4 cycle (debugfs
amdgpu_gfxoff), zero errors occur across resume and 30 min of use vs
~70-140 in the control arm; the wedge forms in the S4 resume window
while GFXOFF is allowed, consistent with the existing semaphore
workaround comment in gmc_v9_0.c.
