FurretUberHi, what is the current situation on the fixes for Intel GPUs? Currently they are unusable with 5.4 from Focal. Are there plans to have them fixed for the release?00:14
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: unusable how?00:16
FurretUberAlways at full power, constant GPU hangs00:16
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: wich intel graphics are you on please?00:16
FurretUberIntel HD Graphics 52000:17
lotuspsychjei have a 620 here and got a few bugs about xorg, kernel oops and the dock00:18
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: can you describe your symptons exactly please?00:18
tomreynalso, have you filed a bug or found an existing bug report on the specific issues you're experiencing?00:19
FurretUberOnce a heavier task starts (the lightest one was the Audacious OpenGL viewer), GPU hangs happen endlessly until the task is closed. Any heavier task then will repeatedly caused GPU hangs00:19
FurretUberAll kernels provided by Canonical have this problem. They are related to that GPU security issue00:20
FurretUberHere is the error log from the GPU with Kerbal Space Program on 5.4.0-9: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/yBvT7gTdPC/00:21
lotuspsychjeyou have a source for this FurretUber ?00:21
FurretUberAbout all kernels with the problem? I tested them all, after the fix for the security issue, I'm having to resort to older versions, patched versions with the fix removed or drm-tip to use my computer00:21
lotuspsychjea bug ID as tomreyn asked FurretUber 00:22
FurretUberHmmm... I have reported a related bug twice, but not this one...?00:24
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: you say all intel gpu's have bugs, where did you pick that up?00:25
FurretUberThe patches affected Intel GPUs starting from Ivy Bridge. It, at least, disabled all power management00:28
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: your gpu hang results into what exactly? xorg crash? loginloop? system freeze to a reboot? black screen?00:30
FurretUberConstant frozen screen. Using Ctrl+Alt+F4 will access a TTY if I wait a few minutes. Killing the offending application makes the GPU hangs stop, but then any heavier task brings the endless GPU hangs again00:33
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: can you see if this is you please? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/185326600:35
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1853266 in xorg-server (Ubuntu) "Xorg/Xwayland segfaults in OsLookupColor() from funlockfile() from glamor_get_pixmap_texture() from glamor_create_gc()" [Undecided,Confirmed]00:35
FurretUberI don't think so, nothing crashes, not even the offending application (there was a significant work to remade the reset engines on Intel GPUs, which I found a critical problem on and delayed a kernel release :p )00:37
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: how about you file a bug for your system then, let us see whats all going there00:39
FurretUberI will report a bug on this GPU hang, as I'm not finding anything similar. That error file is the only thing I got, but I think it can be very useful00:39
FurretUberHmm... should I trigger a GPU hang before reporting the bug to get a dmesg and card0error?00:40
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: you didnt find anything similar, but you say all kernels have this issue?00:40
lotuspsychjeor did you mean you tested several kernels on your system?00:41
FurretUberI meant on Launchpad. https://linuxreviews.org/Linux_Kernel_5.5_Will_Not_Fix_The_Frequent_Intel_GPU_Hangs_In_Recent_Kernels00:41
lotuspsychjeright, now we getting somewhere00:42
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: so all the bugs presented on that link, aint happening to your system?00:43
FurretUberThe high temperature issue is present due to the disabled power management, but none of the linked one there is the exact problem I'm facing. This is why I'll report on Launchpad now00:45
lotuspsychjewill you use ubuntu-bug FurretUber ?00:46
FurretUberYes. I'll just reproduce it to get a dmesg log00:47
lotuspsychjegreat, tnx for taking your time to file it00:47
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: is your bug creating?01:00
FurretUberNo, just got the dmesg and card0 error01:05
lotuspsychjewhats your launchpad account FurretUber ?01:06
lotuspsychje...01:13
FurretUberSorry, here is the bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-signed-5.4/+bug/186159001:15
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1861590 in linux-signed-5.4 (Ubuntu) "Intel GPU hangs constantly under load. After closing offending application, all GPU intensive programs run degraded" [Undecided,New]01:15
FurretUberNo dmesg was uploaded? I used ubuntu-bug linux01:15
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: you can still add it now if you like01:16
FurretUberI added them. I thought when reporting against linux it would upload the files :p01:17
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: you upgraded to 20.04 from 19.10?01:18
FurretUberFrom 18.0401:18
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: did you test if you can reproduce your bug on a daily 20.04?01:19
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: usually in this stage of development, we try to test bugs on daily iso, this to avoid alot of work for the devs01:20
FurretUberWell, I can do this test, but I will have to download the daily ISO01:20
lotuspsychjeplease do FurretUber so we can rule out a too early lts upgrade problem01:21
FurretUberI will test with the Xubuntu ISO, as it's Xubuntu I'm using now. It will take a while to download01:22
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: your dmesg looks like it has errors about it allright01:25
FurretUberSo, after 2 hours, I got the GPU hang on Focal Daily. Same symptoms03:43
FurretUberI have added the dmesg and card0/error to the bug report03:59
tomreynFurretUber: is it still running, and if so, what's in    journalctl -b -p304:02
tomreynmaybe -p4 also if that's not more than you want to share04:03
FurretUberNo, I stopped it. I have to go sleep, but I can do this tomorrow, good night and thank you for the support04:13
tomreynso related bug reports are https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111812 https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/issues/451 and maybe https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/issues/67304:33
ubottuFreedesktop bug 111812 in DRM/Intel "i915 0000:00:02.0: GPU HANG: ecode 9:0:0x00000000, hang on rcs0" [Major,Resolved: moved]04:33
tomreyncombining     i915.enable_dc=0 and intel_idle.max_cstate=1      seems to give folks acceptable uptime. kernel 5.5 also seems to help (not sure whether it fully fixes it).04:36
tomreynloads of reports there indeed, this looks bad.04:38
tomreynand using those kernel parameters means lesser power savings.04:39
lotuspsychjeFurretUber: tnx for testing a xubuntu daily on your bug14:25
FurretUberThe journalctl -b -p4 log: https://termbin.com/yxfn it seems there is nothing new related to this problem17:56
