Hello Christian,

I tried to disable "transparent huge page" with the kernel parameter
"transparent_hugepage=never", but the bug is still here

here is the output of "cat /proc/meminfo" when the kernel parameter
"transparent_hugepage=never" is used and when I see hd youtube video@60 fps in
fullscreen mode :

the same experience but without the kernel parameter
"transparent_hugepage=never", the bug is still here :

what it's sure is that the commit 648bc357471 "drm/ttm: add transparent huge
page support for DMA allocations v2" triggers the bug with my PC configuration,
when I want to see a youtube video 1080p@60fps in fullscreen mode, there is a
performance issue, the playback is not 100% fluid ( I can notice little lags in
travelling-type images )

some additionnal informations :

- I use plasma 5 ( kde ) as window manager, the vsync option is set to
"automatic" in plasma 5 options, "openGL 2.0 acceleration" option is used for
the compositor for plasma 5,

- mesa version : 17.3.2-2
$ glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version"                                               
OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 17.3.2          

- the contain of /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-radeon.conf :

Section "Device"
    Identifier "Radeon"
    Driver "modesetting"
    Option "TearFree" "off"
    Option "DRI" "3"
    Option "AccelMethod" "glamor"
EndSection
