[Bug 577073] [NEW] System freeze when using EXA with radeon driver

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

System hangs when using accelerated X11 and KMS
System is not pingable anymore

I can work around this by setting either:

Option "EXANoComposite" "True"
but this is nearly unusable. It's _extremly_slow_ !

or

Option "Accel" "Off"
usable but slow.

dmesg | tail:
[ 1110.762731] [drm:radeon_fence_wait] *ERROR* fence(ffff8800a922b040:0x00006817) 510ms timeout going to reset GPU
[ 1110.764144] [drm] RB2D reset succeed (RBBM_STATUS=0x00000140)
[ 1110.764148] [drm] GPU reset succeed (RBBM_STATUS=0x00000140)

[ 1110.764163] [drm:radeon_fence_wait] *ERROR* last signaled fence(0x00006817)

I can reproduce the problem very easy with X11 accel and loading this website in firefox and moving mouse while loading the website:

The last lines received of /var/log/messages through ssh from remote:
May  7 15:58:32 hostname kernel: [ 5261.603948] [drm] CP reset succeed (RBBM_STATUS=0x83F86100)
