            Bug ID: 91268
           Summary: R6xx freezes with kernel 3.17 and up
           Product: DRI
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: DRM/Radeon
          Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: kap3tan@gmail.com

Something was introduced in kernel 3.17 which makes my GPU to freeze while
playing games. When it happens screen freeze for a few seconds, then it goes
blank for a few seconds, then it comes back with strange artifacts on the
screen, system is basically unresponsive, the only thing you can do is a hard
reset.
With kernels below 3.17 this doesn't happen.
Mesa version also doesn't matter.
Basically same everything, just booting with different kernel makes a
difference.
3.16 is good and 3.17 is bad (also every other kernel above 3.17)
With kernel 3.16 I can play games for days/weeks and bug will not happen.
With 3.17 it can happen anywhere between 15 minutes and few hours.
I did a bisect and it produced this :

git bisect start '--' 'drivers/gpu/drm/radeon'

Currently I'm running kernel with commit before the first bad one :
$ git reset --hard 77497f2735ad6e29c55475e15e9790dbfa2c2ef8
HEAD is now at 77497f2 drm/radeon: Pass GART page flags to
radeon_gart_set_page() explicitly

to test it more thoroughly and see if hang will occur.
