[PATCH v3] drm/amdgpu: Fix GFX hang on SteamDeck when amdgpu is reloaded

[Rodrigo Siqueira]

When trying to unload amdgpu in the SteamDeck (TTY mode), the following
set of errors happens and the system gets unstable:

[..]
 [drm] Initialized amdgpu 3.64.0 for 0000:04:00.0 on minor 0
 amdgpu 0000:04:00.0: [drm:amdgpu_ib_ring_tests [amdgpu]] *ERROR* IB test failed on gfx_0.0.0 (-110).
 amdgpu 0000:04:00.0: amdgpu: ib ring test failed (-110).
[..]
 amdgpu 0000:04:00.0: amdgpu: SMU: I'm not done with your previous command: SMN_C2PMSG_66:0x0000001E SMN_C2PMSG_82:0x00000000
 amdgpu 0000:04:00.0: amdgpu: Failed to disable gfxoff!
 amdgpu 0000:04:00.0: amdgpu: SMU: I'm not done with your previous command: SMN_C2PMSG_66:0x0000001E SMN_C2PMSG_82:0x00000000
 amdgpu 0000:04:00.0: amdgpu: Failed to disable gfxoff!
[..]

When the driver initializes the GPU, the PSP validates all the firmware
loaded, and after that, it is not possible to load any other firmware
unless the device is reset. What is happening in the load/unload
situation is that PSP halts the GC engine because it suspects that
something is amiss. To address this issue, this commit ensures that the
GPU is reset (mode 2 reset) in the unload sequence.

Hi Alex,
If this change is okay with you, may I send a revert for the change below?

 72a98763b473890e6605604bfcaf71fc212b4720 - drm/amd: fix gfx hang on renoir in IGT reload test

The above change adds GPU reset during load time.

Thanks

Hi,

I just want to follow-up about this patch. Do I need to make any other
modification?

I was a little bit worried about implications for the 6.19 changes 
around shutdown, but I talked to siqueira about some testing for it and 
he did a wide array of testing across different GPUs with load/unload 
and shutdown.  To me this looks fine, but I think Alex should give his 
thoughts too.

I think this will break certain navi32 boards due to another quirk
they have. See

It would probably be best to limit this to small APUs.  Something like:

if ((adev->flags & AMD_IS_APU) && !adev->gmc.is_app_apu)
        r = amdgpu_asic_reset(adev);

dGPUs should already be covered by the need_reset_on_init() logic so
there is no need to reset them.
