            Bug ID: 91535
           Summary: Chrome can cause a nouveau 'multiple instances of
                    buffer' message when overlaying a menu leading to X
                    lockup
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)

Chrome Version 44.0.2403.125 (64-bit) on ubuntu with 
libdrm-2.4.60, libdrm-2.4.56 and Peter Hurley's libdrm-2.4.60 with the fix
applied for this bug : https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89842#c19
can cause the kernel driver to reject validation of a push_buffer from the
nouveau push_buffer logic in nouveau_pushbuf_kick, leading to the following
message

nouveau E[chrome[2737]] multiple instances of buffer 33 on validation list 
nouveau E[chrome[2737]] validate_init 
nouveau E[chrome[2737]] validate: -22 
nouveau E[chrome[2737]] multiple instances of buffer 18 on validation list 
nouveau E[chrome[2737]] validate_init 
nouveau E[chrome[2737]] validate: -22 
nouveau E[ PFIFO][0000:01:00.0] PFIFO: read fault at 
0x0003e21000 [PAGE_NOT_PRESENT] from (unknown enum 
0x00000000)/GPC0/(unknown enum 0x0000000f) on channel 0x007f80c000 
[unknown] 

The following work-around works for me on Linux 4.2-rc4

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/2228405

Where I tell the kernel to 'continue' if it already has mapped memory specified
in a push buffer for a given PID.

Using that work-around means I still get the 'multiple instances' error message
but, it's not treated as fatal and so far has been completely stable for me.

The feedback from LKML was that this is probably a bug in libdrm.

I've downloaded and run the test associated with bug 89842 i.e.
libdrm-2.4.60/tests/nouveau/threaded.c using various versions of libdrm2 as
suggested on LKML and I can confirm that the race condition the test tests for
is not present.

Launchpad PPA @ ppa:phurley/libdrm - 2.4.60 with bugfix 89842 applied does not
fault on the threaded test libdrm-2.4.60/tests/nouveau/threaded.c but does get
into a 'multiple instances' state on the nouveau push_buf list - again on the
stock ubuntu kernel and the tip-of-tree 4.2-rcX

Description: Userspace interface to kernel DRM services -- runtime
 This library implements the userspace interface to the kernel DRM
 services.  DRM stands for "Direct Rendering Manager", which is the
 kernelspace portion of the "Direct Rendering Infrastructure" (DRI).
 The DRI is currently used on Linux to provide hardware-accelerated
 OpenGL drivers.
 .
 This package provides the runtime environment for libdrm.

Chrome Version 44.0.2403.125 (64-bit)

Steps to replicate:

Run the version of chrome indicated above. Open a number of tabs to different
websites. Click on the horizontal bars in the top right to get the drop-down
menu, and hover the cursor over bookmarks or recent tabs.

This process is a bit hit and miss and make take a unknown number of tabs/time
to elicit the behaviour, sorry I can't be more concise at this point.

It's not clear if bug 89842 will fix all or some of the issues reported in this
Ubuntu thread : http://tinyurl.com/orvbzf3 but, I've verified the test program
developed to debug that race condition doesn't cause a mjultiple instances
message on my machine.

2014 Macbook pro - running bunutu 14.04, issue is present with stock ubuntu
kernel and the 4.2-rcX kernel I'm using to debug this issue.
