            Bug ID: 79338
          Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: Something's broken after llvm's svn commit 209067
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: j.suarez.agapito@gmail.com
          Hardware: Other
            Status: NEW
           Version: git
         Component: Drivers/Gallium/radeonsi
           Product: Mesa

Something seems to have been broken in llvm 3.5 after svn revision 209067.

What I am experiencing is that the system is stable for desktop usage but after
a few minutes from launching a game (I have tried with CKII, Witcher 2,
Watelands 2, Cities in motion, Deadfall Adventures and Serious Sam 3) or just
after a few seconds after exiting the game the desktop freezes, the screen goes
black (can't switch to vt to kill the game/desktop session) and the system
becomes unresponsive. I'm afraid I cannot obtain a dmesg log due to that
unresponsiveness.

If a dmesg log is needed to know the system's specs, the following attachement
of another bug report may be of use:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=97787

I am using a llvm ppa to install llvm 3.5 git. I've tried to compile llvm with
no luck, so I cannot bisect. However, I still have in /var/cache/apt/archives
the deb packages for svn revisions 209564, 209581 and 209600 and those
revisions hang the system in the way described above. So judging by the R600
llvm backend activity
(https://github.com/llvm-mirror/llvm/commits/master/lib/Target/R600) and my
experience with those svn .deb packages I still have in the apt cache, it seems
the culprit must be a commit after 16 May.

I have uploaded a new dmesg log because I just realised the one in the other
bug report was not recent.

If you capture an apitrace of one of those games, does the problem also occur
after replaying the apitrace?

Do the ppa packages use any patches versus upstream?

What's the problem compiling LLVM? It would probably be best if you could
bisect yourself.

--- Comment #4 from José Suárez <j.suarez.agapito@gmail.com> ---
Thank you for your quick reply, Michel.

The ppa I use is llvm.org's ppa (llvm.org/apt/) for Ubuntu 14.04 so I guess it
will just be plain upstream with no additional patches.

With regard to compiling, I have two chroot environments, one is i386 and the
other one is amd64, which I use to recompile mesa (from oibaf's ubuntu ppa)
with llvm 3.5 via dpkg-buildpackage (previously editing debian/rules so that
the config looks for llvm 3.5 rather than llvm 3.4).

I have tried to compile the original tar.gz packages (dpkg-buildpackage) from
the llvm.org ppa within those two chroot environments but I just can't get them
to work (config fails complaining about llvm tools, if I remember correctly,
even though I downloaded all the tar.gz packages in the ppa and among which
there was a package named llvm extra tools or something like that). Using
apt-source results in obtaining the llvm 3.4 source tarball from Ubuntu's
repositories, not the one from llvm.org, so that does not help either. I think
that manually compiling llvm is a bit too much for me (I am not that advanced),
so I'll try to get the dpkg-buildpackage working. If that doesn't work I guess
I'll give a look at manually compiling.

I have never used apitrace either but I will try to find instructions and give
it a go.

I currently don't have too much free time due to real life (TM) but I'll try to
address the llvm compilation (and bisect) and apitrace test. I'll also check
newer llvm builds from the ppa in order to check if the problem has been
solved.

OK, I finally managed to setup and compile with the dpkg-buildpackage thing. So
I guess I shall be able to reproduce the svn versions to bisect via patches
over the ppa llvm source. I'll post my findings.

Hmmm... the problem actually seems to not be related to llvm.

I managed to obtain a crash dmesg log (see attachment above) while using llvm
3.5 svn 209067 which in theory was a good llvm svn revision. That made me
rethink the cause of the problem and now I think the problem is coming from the
kernel.

So I tried linux 3.14 (3.14.0-031400-generic #201403310035), which I had used
before the 3.15 rc's started to come out. The thing is that with llvm 3.5 svn
209708 and linux 3.14 the gpu does not lock up. This svn 209708 llvm revision
was making the gpu hang quite fast with linux 3.15-rc6 when launching a game.

GPU hang with 3.15-rc6 with llvm revs higher than 209067 was quite frequent, so
could this be that those higher revs are hitting a bug in linux 3.15-rc6?

Finally the problem I was experiencing was indeed related to the linux kernel.
I have installed 3.15-rc7 (I which I had not updated since rc6) and the
problems are gone. Not sure why, but the newer llvm revisions were triggering
the bug more frequently.

Guessing by the 3.15-rc7 changelog, I was probably affected by a drm bug:

Alex Deucher (4):
      drm/radeon: fix DCE83 check for mullins
      drm/radeon: handle non-VGA class pci devices with ATRM
      drm/radeon: fix register typo on si
      drm/radeon/pm: don't allow debugfs/sysfs access when PX card is off (v2)

This report may now be closed.

Thank you, Michel, for your help.
