dmesg output

This issue is specifically with gentoo-sources-4-1-12. It does not occur in 4.0.5. (I have not tried newer testing kernels.)

During kernel boot-up, just before init starts, this message appears:

[    6.348758] [drm] stuck on render ring
[    6.349398] [drm] GPU HANG: ecode 8:0:0x00201001, reason: Ring hung, action: reset
[    6.349424] [drm] GPU hangs can indicate a bug anywhere in the entire gfx stack, including userspace.
[    6.349454] [drm] Please file a _new_ bug report on bugs.freedesktop.org against DRI -> DRM/Intel
[    6.349483] [drm] drm/i915 developers can then reassign to the right component if it's not a kernel issue.
[    6.349515] [drm] The gpu crash dump is required to analyze gpu hangs, so please always attach it.
[    6.349545] [drm] GPU crash dump saved to /sys/class/drm/card0/error
[    6.351643] drm/i915: Resetting chip after gpu hang

Then this message starts repeating every six seconds for as long as the OS remains running:

[   12.352432] [drm] stuck on render ring
[   12.354219] [drm] GPU HANG: ecode 8:0:0x00201001, reason: Ring hung, action: reset
[   12.355246] [drm:i915_set_reset_status] *ERROR* gpu hanging too fast, banning!
[   12.358379] drm/i915: Resetting chip after gpu hang

If X attempts to start, an immediate kernel panic occurs.

Attached are the entire output of dmesg, the GPU crash dump and my kernel config.

Is this still an issue with later kernels?

Did you file a bug at bugs.freedesktop.org as indicated?
Comment 4 Carlos Konstanski 2016-04-22 18:58:15 UTC
It'S still an issue. The behavior changes with each new kernel version, but it'S never fully resolved and sometimes it gets worse. I cannot remember if I filed a bug at freedesktop.org. I did look there and saw the incredible backlog of bugs. Not sure if I actually filed another one. Would they ever see it?
Comment 5 Mike Pagano gentoo-dev 2018-06-13 22:18:00 UTC
Yes, they would see it. If this is still an issue, can you please file this upstream?
