           Summary: nouveau driver does not return VGA connector status
                    breaking upower
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86-64 (AMD64)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/nouveau
        AssignedTo: nouveau-PD4FTy7X32lNgt0PjOBp9y5qC8QIuHrW@public.gmane.org
        ReportedBy: nuada-hjuaS3B0pPfVItvQsEIGlw@public.gmane.org
         QAContact: xorg-team-go0+a7rfsptAfugRpC6u6w@public.gmane.org


My laptop (Asus UL80VT) has hybrid graphics: intel+nvidia. After switching
nvidia card off using vgaswitcheroo, upower CPU consumption goes to 100%. If
nvidia card is switched back on, problem dissapeares.

This is caused by nouveau driver not returning VGA connector status properly.
When upowerd tries to read status of all connectors, it hangs waiting for VGA.

Gentoo Linux
kernel: 2.6.38-rc*
xorg-server: 1.9.4
upower: 0.9.8
KDE: 4.6.0

Steps to reproduce:
1. Log in to KDE
2. switch off nvidia:
    echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
3. cannot read VGA connector status:
    cat
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/drm/card1/card1-VGA-1/status

Similar problem here. I added to /etc/rc.local:
  echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch

When Gnome tries to start, upowerd eats 100% CPU. So, to start Gnome I have to
temporarily enable the card, then disable it again.
Similarly,
  cat
"/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/drm/card0/card0-VGA-1/status"

hangs when the card is OFF.

For what it's worth, when upowerd enters 100%-cpu-hog mode, this is its stack
trace (Thinkpad W520, gentoo sources 3.6.2):

Proposed fix

Tested on 3.9.4, seems to hide/fix the issue.

I did a quick check and it doesn't seem like the proposed fix was merged. Does
it still occur on a recent kernel (3.18, 3.19-rc4)?
