[Bug 93649] [radeonsi] Graphics lockup while playing tf2

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93649

--- Comment #10 from Rosco P. Coltrane roscofdporg@manashort.com --- Same problem here on a fedora 23

GPU: HD 7970 CPU: Intel Core i7 950

Mesa 11.1.0 DRM 2.43.0 LLVM 3.7.0 kernel: 4.3.4

The logs are filed with "ring stalled" and GPU lock messages. I can send more logs if needed.

radeon 0000:02:00.0: ring 3 stalled for more than 10249msec radeon 0000:02:00.0: GPU lockup (current fence id 0x000000000001e5f1 last fence id 0x000000000001e5f2 on ring 3)

I've tried a different firmware (http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/k/) which seemed to have helped other people with their own problem but it didn't help in my case.

Does it makes sense to try to rollback to an older kernel?
