kernel log

Shortly after loading nouveau kernel module it floods kernel log with messages
and switches to software fbcon. Somewhere in the flood it reports lockup and
the switch.
The easies trigger is switching vts a few times or scrolling text, e.g. with
less.

System is NV11 (nforce IGP) running 3.4.0 kernel.

Extra system information is available at attachment #33464.

Do I assume correctly that this still happens with the latest kernel? If so,
please try the following things (individually) and let me know if there's any
improvement:

nouveau.vram_pushbuf=1
nouveau.agpmode=0

Oh, also looking at your log, it looks like you actually have the NV1A, not
NV11.

Impossible to tell with current kernels (3.8.2, 3.10.7, 3.11-rc6) as VGA output
is not being lit up properly by nouveau (monitor says "no signal").

See also bug #26534, comments 18 and 20.

patch to treat nv1a as pre-nv17

Generationally, NV1A is pre-NV17. However in a bunch of places in the nouveau
code, this wasn't recognized. I believe this patch should help, at least with
something. Mind trying it out? Should apply on top of a git-ish kernel (but
probably doesn't really matter).

This patch gets the signal to the monitor.

Could you also retest your various bugs with that patch applied to see if
they've resolved themselves? (Including this one.)

These two patches get the output reaching monitor as well as the previous
patch.


Note: with nouveau loaded (3.11-rc7, previous patch applied) I had memory
(SLAB) corruption as if someone did reuse stale pointers or write beyond
allocated memory. I have no idea on the responsible party though they don't
seem to happen with VGA console (nouveau not loaded).

The scrolling bug seems fixed though.

These patches (well, fixed up versions that actually work for nv11+ correctly)
are now in nouveau/master. As for the memory corruption issue, try using SLUB
with slub_debug=FZPU, that might help figure out what's going wrong. If you
find anything concrete, file a new issue.
