Thanks Alex for explaining the difference between vddc and mvdd.
After using the GPU in this way for a couple of days I can tell you that
increasing the voltage definitely improves the stability of the system but
ultimately it doesn't fix the problem. The GPU can still hang with the same
"ring gfx timeout", it just takes more time before the problem oc=
cours.
Some additonal comments:
* I'd like to emphasize that the problem is not specific to 4K and will hap=
pen
on 1080p, just later. Ie. the GPU hangs in a couple of minutes instead of
immediately.
* echo high > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_le=
vel
does not help at all.
* I also tried amdgpu.vm_update_mode=3D3 (found as a suggestion from another
similar bug report) but it doesn't help at all.
* I also tried manually setting the sclk to a fixed, lower level (another
suggestion from another bugreport) which seems to improve the stability by a
small margin but it also doesn't prevent the GPU from hanging.
