Since the watermark calculations for Skylake are still broken, we're apt to hitting underruns very easily under multi-monitor configurations. While it would be lovely if this was fixed, it's not. Another problem that's been coming from this however, is the mysterious issue of underruns causing full system hangs. An easy way to reproduce this with a skylake system:
- Get a laptop with a skylake GPU, and hook up two external monitors to it
- Move the cursor from the built-in LCD to one of the external displays as quickly as you can
- You'll get a few pipe underruns, and eventually the entire system will just freeze.
After doing a lot of investigation and reading through the bspec, I found the existence of the SAGV, which is responsible for adjusting the system agent voltage and clock frequencies depending on how much power we need. According to the bspec:
"The display engine access to system memory is blocked during the adjustment time. SAGV defaults to enabled. Software must use the GT-driver pcode mailbox to disable SAGV when the display engine is not able to tolerate the blocking time."
The rest of the bspec goes on to explain that software can simply leave the SAGV enabled, and disable it when we use interlaced pipes/have more then one pipe active.
Sure enough, with this patchset the system hangs resulting from pipe underruns on Skylake have completely vanished on my T460s.

I think you want to make this conditional on !BROXTON. The bspec isn't super clear, but it says "On core CPUs..." which I believe indicates that this isn't relevant to the Atom processors like Broxton. The SAGV block time table also lists "SKL, EXCLUDE(BXT)."
This would also explain why I've been unable to reproduce your SKL problems on my Broxton hardware.
