[Bug 91880] Radeonsi on Grenada cards (r9 390) exceptionally unstable and poorly performing
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
Bug ID: 91880 Summary: Radeonsi on Grenada cards (r9 390) exceptionally unstable and poorly performing Product: Mesa Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) OS: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: medium Component: Drivers/Gallium/radeonsi Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: luutifa@gmail.com QA Contact: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org
I have an r9 390, and I had to disable DPM (on Linux 4.2) to get a stable destop. The performance is less than half of r9 290 (which is almost the same GPU) on the same driver.
How is Grenada support planned and can I get an estimate of it's arrival?

--- Comment #1 from Alex Deucher alexdeucher@gmail.com --- It's supported. Please attach your xorg log, dmesg output and a copy of your vbios. To get a copy of your vbios: (as root) (use lspci to get the bus id) cd /sys/bus/pci/devices/<pci bus id> echo 1 > rom cat rom > /tmp/vbios.rom echo 0 > rom

--- Comment #4 from Lauri Gustafsson luutifa@gmail.com --- (In reply to Alex Deucher from comment #1)
Thanks for responding. I added the log and the ROM. Still, even on the newest Linux from Git I get a display crash/hang whithout disabling DPM in Kernel line, so I'm not sure if I can supply an Xorg log with DPM switched on. Performance on this freshly built kernel (without DPM) is still the same as before: somewhat low.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #6 from Lauri Gustafsson luutifa@gmail.com --- An interesting observation is that lspci shows my card as "Hawaii PRO [Radeon R9 290]" (even though it's not), and dmesg says "[ 6.072219] radeon 0000:01:00.0: Invalid ROM contents"
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #7 from Lauri Gustafsson luutifa@gmail.com --- I did get Unigine Heaven running with DPM on for a few seconds (before hanging), showing way better frame rates than before. It really seems that - The performance issues are most likely caused by the lack of DPM - DPM for Grenada GPUs is not supported completely Or: - My card has a really weird (stock) VBIOS that Radeon(si?) cannot interpret/work with.

--- Comment #9 from Alex Deucher alexdeucher@gmail.com --- Can you try the latest smc and mc ucode from here: http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/hawaii/ Make sure to update your initrd if you are using one.

--- Comment #10 from John Frei johann_frei@yahoo.de --- Wow, thank you for this quick reply!
Here's what i've done now. Please correct me, if I've done something wrong.
//Removing the old ucode. -rm /usr/lib/firmware/radeon/hawaii* -rm /usr/lib/firmware/radeon/HAWAII*
Then I downloaded all 11 files from the link and moved them to /usr/lib/firmware/radeon/.
Finally I executed 'sudo dracut -f' to generate a new initramfs.
Sadly it doesn't change the behavior. I still get a freeze/black screen. :-(

--- Comment #11 from Alex Deucher alexdeucher@gmail.com --- (In reply to John Frei from comment #10)
Are you sure that is the correct directory? Most distros look for the firmware in /lib/firmware/radeon/
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #12 from John Frei johann_frei@yahoo.de --- Thank you for your quick response.
'ls -al /' tells me: [...] lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 7 16. Aug 2014 lib -> usr/lib lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 16. Aug 2014 lib64 -> usr/lib64 [...]
So /lib should be just a symbolic link to /usr/lib in Fedora 22.
If you need any other data/logs of my system, just tell it!

Here's the output of 'modinfo radeon'.
As you can see, the uppercase 'HAWAII_*' firmware is still listed, too, although these files were deleted from the /lib/firmware/radeon/ directory.
Did I do something wrong regarding to the process of the initramfs rebuilding?

--- Comment #14 from Alex Deucher alexdeucher@gmail.com --- (In reply to John Frei from comment #13)
The upper case ones were the original versions without the header information. They are only used for backwards compatibility. All you need is the lower case ones.

--- Comment #17 from Jonas jojonintendo@tutanota.com --- Hi. I have the same card, although it is from XFX, and I get the same behaviour (apparently random crash when gaming/video). The card is also recognized as Hawaii PRO by "lspci". I'm uploading my "vbios.rom" in case it is useful. I hope I can help in some way.

--- Comment #23 from Jonas jojonintendo@tutanota.com --- I have some news. Yesterday I installed latest Debian Sid, which includes a 2 days old firmware-amd-graphics (https://packages.debian.org/sid/firmware-amd-graphics), and I see a pretty big improvement overall. I'm not home right now, but yesterday I could play every Valve game I own in good conditions.
Difference is that it no longer crashes for me, although sometimes it still stutters a little. It's like ~70% of the time it plays smooth, and ~30% it stutters. I tried to make it crash, but I couldn't, even with high details and some options pushed to max.
So, dpm seems to fail sometimes, but it is definitely improving for Grenada cards (although system still recognises GPU as Hawaii and uses Hawaii firmware). Many thanks to the developers that take care of this, I really appreciate your work and effort.
I hope you guys get the same results. It seems we finally get to play with our shiny R9 390!

--- Comment #26 from John Frei johann_frei@yahoo.de --- I will try the new firmware on weekend and share my experiences. What do you mean with 'dpm seems to fail'? Is it "just" a poor performance or still a system crash?

--- Comment #27 from Jonas jojonintendo@tutanota.com --- I just retried Portal 2, Team Fortress 2 and L4D2, and it seems that when games launch I get a big hang (which looks like it's going to crash), but then it restores itself and works great. When I talk about "dpm that seems to fail" I mean that when the GPU must use more power, the game stutters. But at least it's working, I just tried to make it crash without success. I'm attaching dmesg and xorg, because I think there are some differences.
As far as I'm concerned, it seems to be working pretty good. I'm looking forward to see if someone can confirm this.

--- Comment #31 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net --- Hi, it looks like I'm experiencing the same bug (see #93288 ).
I own a radeon 39 R390X manufactured by MSI. Right now I tried the last firmware from git repository but it fixed nothing. (tip for ubuntu users, the package from upcoming xenial is currently shipping the latest hawaii firmwares, I checked them against the latest master: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware ).
I can send you my dmesg if needed.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #33 from John Frei johann_frei@yahoo.de --- I've tried the new stuff by the following steps: -cloning the code from the new_smc branch... -I enabled the "Enable amdgpu support for CIK parts" due to a recommendation on reddit. -compiling and installing the kernel+modules... -I placed the ucode to /lib/firmware/radeon and /lib/firmware/amdgpu -The rebuild of the modules was done by 'sudo dracut -f'. <-- I hope this is the correct command.
-Then I rebooted the system with 'rdblacklist=0 amdgpu.enable_scheduler=1'. -I was able to log in and use the system for a short time until the screen went black. (~1min) -BUT: I pressed ALT+CTRL+F4 and 'blindly' typed my login credentials and was able to dump the dmesg output to file (attachment). The number lock could be switched on/off for a few seconds. Even though the screen remained black. -Then I booted with unmodified kernel parameters. -A few seconds after the login screen appeared the screen switched to black. -Unlike the first try with amdgpu I wasn't able to execute a 'dmesg >> file'. The number lock couldn't be switched on/off anymore.

--- Comment #35 from Alex Deucher alexdeucher@gmail.com --- The patches have no affect on amdgpu. Please test radeon.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #36 from John Frei johann_frei@yahoo.de --- I assume that the second try (boot with unmodified kernel parameters) the module radeon was used. The only thing I can try is to compile the kernel without the 'amdgpu CIK parts', but this should not affect the radeon module, right?
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #37 from Alex Deucher alexdeucher@gmail.com --- (In reply to John Frei from comment #36)
Either disable CIK support in amdgpu or blacklist the amdgpu module (e.g., modprobe.blacklist=amdgpu on the kernel command line in grub) to keep the amdgpu driver from loading on CIK hardware.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #38 from John Frei johann_frei@yahoo.de --- I explicitly blacklisted amdgpu. Sadly, I got a instant crash on login screen with radeon, too. (kernel 4.4-rc3+)

--- Comment #39 from Jonas jojonintendo@tutanota.com --- Created attachment 120607 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=120607&action=edit dmesg output latest Arch Linux
After some testing under Arch Linux I noticed that the crash after ~10 sec of gaming (sometimes it's instant) is still happening. However the dmesg output I provide here seems to be very different than others so far. It happened while in Big Picture mode on Steam, no game launched, only playing with menus. I got a crash on tty1 (the X.org one) but I could get dmesg out of another tty. However once I got back to tty1 I couldn't do anything else and had to reboot.
Other than that, playing videos on Firefox or mpv still crashes after some time (~30 sec), but I can't get dmesg output.

Can you please try latest LLVM and Mesa git? LLVM has some fixes for VM faults.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #41 from Jonas jojonintendo@tutanota.com --- I installed a [mesa-git] repository, which includes LLVM and mesa packages. I also installed lib32 versions, but I'm still facing the same VM errors when I'm able to get a dmesg output. I also tried latest [testing] repository but I get the same result.
Thanks for your help.

My card still hangs after a little use even when setting performance to power_dmp_state before startx. http://imgur.com/GQf2NJY
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #44 from John Frei johann_frei@yahoo.de --- I found out some interesting fact on my system:
If I start in textmode (runlevel 3) with no specific kernel parameter like 'radeon.dpm=0', set power_dm_force_perofrmance_level to 'high' and power_dpm_state to 'performance' and finally start the gdm service, the system works without crash. I was even able to play some games.
If I boot in textmode with radeon.dpm=0 and try to set power_profile to 'high', I get a crash immediately. I cannot even start gdm in this case.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #45 from lainlives@gmail.com --- (In reply to John Frei from comment #44)
Your experience sounds exactly like mine, setting a udev rule to do that upon boot works fine as a workaround that persists accross reboots.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #46 from Jonas jojonintendo@tutanota.com --- My case is completely different. I just tried setting dpm "state" to "performance" and "level" to "high" while in Plasma 5 session, and I got no problem at all. I didn't use any special kernel parameter, so I have dpm on. I could even play some games without crash, but still with some stutter. In fact, "dmesg" shows nothing about radeon or dpm failing, I guess because it's not regulating voltage and frequency (which is what seems to make it crash).
So in my case it seems I can switch profiles while in active X session without any problem. I have kernel 4.2.5, latest mesa, llvm, firmware and libdrm.

Ah, setting the force_performance_level was the key, now I can get >70fps in Unigine heaven without any crashes! I hope dpm gets fixed and trickles down to Arch Linux soon, it's a bit of a waste to be running my card at full power all the time...
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #48 from Julian jsbansen@gmail.com --- I have the same issue. R9 390, running DPM=1 will end up in an eventual freeze. Using DPM=0 works fine but is obviously suboptimal.
I could provide another xorg log/vbios/demsg but they seem to be quite similar to the thread starter's.
Two things to add:
* I've tried with Ubuntu's default Mesa version (which is 11.0.8 I think) and the newest (11.1) and the newer release seems to cause the freeze much faster. On 11.0.8 I'd be able to use the system for hours until it froze. 11.1 never lasted for more than 20 minutes.
* A quick way to force the freeze to happen is to use google maps. Half a minute of scrolling around and zooming in/out is enough to make it happen.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #49 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net --- Hey, it's awesome, the workaround Lauri Gustafsson found is working well!
I just do that at after my computer startup:
``` service 'gdm' stop
echo 'high' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level' echo 'performance' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_state'
service 'gdm' start ```
Then it works! I was able to run the Unigine Valley and Heaven Benchmarks for the first time wit dpm enabled, without crashing at startup, and with descent performances.
If I don't do that and keep the dpm default config, my system crashes some minutes after startup (and for sure when running on heavy benchmarks like those ones).
I own a MSI R9 390X. In the past I wrote some details on bug 93288 . I'll upload my vbios soon. There is some strings like that inside:

--- Comment #55 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net --- Hi, I made some tests, I discovered that my R9 390X works very well if I never load the "auto" `power_dpm_force_performance_level` profile, both "low" and "high" works. Also, both `power_dpm_state` "balanced", "battery", "performance" works.
So, I wrote a little systemd service that load the "low/battery" profile at startup (just before multi-user.target so it's loaded before the login manager startup.
I discovered I can switch `power_dpm_force_performance_level` profile to the value I want and the same for `power_dpm_state` without any crashing, even when an heavy task (like Unigine Valley Benchmark) is running.
The fault is on the "auto" `power_dpm_force_performance_level` profile, and only that. All other options work.
If you want to workaround the bug, you can use my service: https://github.com/illwieckz/dpm-query/
Just install the service (it will load "low/battery" DPM profile at startup), then use the `dpm-query` tool to set "high/performance" DPM profile when you need it.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #56 from Julian jsbansen@gmail.com --- (In reply to Thomas DEBESSE from comment #55)
Thank you for that. It seems like my system reacts the same way - I've re-enabled DPM and set the perf level to something that isn't auto. It's not crashed on me for about an hour now which is better than it did before.
I've also tried your tool - the service doesn't actually set the dpm parameters to 'low' and 'battery' for me. Maybe some issue with permissions involved. But dpm-query works fine and it great for convenience. Thanks for that as well.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #57 from Andy Furniss adf.lists@gmail.com --- I have different h/w from you (TONGA).
Forcing high can help me but be aware that for me at least it may change back to auto as soon as some display change happens eg.
Coming out of dpms or changing a mode.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #58 from Julian jsbansen@gmail.com --- In case anyone is interested, I've hacked together a GNOME extension that adds a status icon showing the current DPM setting and a popup menu to easily switch: https://github.com/JuBan1/radeon-dpm-control.git
It only handles three combinations of settings: low/battery, auto/balanced, high/performance. I don't think the others are particularly useful.
It makes use of Thomas DEBESSE's dpm-query script a few comments earlier.

--- Comment #59 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net --- Hi, since the bug is narrowed to the power_dpm_force_performance_level's auto profile, is there something we can do to help more?

So, I've never done this before but I managed to recompile the kernel with the attached patch and boot from it.
I've been running on the performance_level auto setting for about an hour now and haven't encountered the freeze. I'll be using it for a few hours tomorrow to make sure but considering it usually takes only ~20 minutes to freeze, I'd consider this version fixed.
On this note, I guess there are ways to apply a patch to the radeon driver without recompiling the whole kernel? That'd make things less time-consuming.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #62 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net --- (In reply to Julian from comment #61)
I'd consider this version fixed.
Beware, no, it's not fixed because Alex's patche is not a patch to fix something, it's a patch test something. Applying the patch as-is only helps to show the error is in one of theses 4 lines, but all theses 4 lines are lines that must be enabled. Saying this patch fixes something is like saying not using the "auto" level profile fixes the driver, which not. :D
But thanks a lot for that test, now we know the error is in one of these 4 options. We need to test each of them separately now. :-)
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #63 from Julian jsbansen@gmail.com --- Well, "fixed" :p
I've used the patched module for 5-6 hours without issues now. So this version checks out.
Next is with sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0 and mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0;
My guess is that this'll make the freeze happen again. I've dug through the sources in an attempt to understand what's going on. My hypothesis is that the lockup happens under rare circumstances when the driver switches from one performance_level to another. Forcing the highest or lowest perf level is fine, but 'auto' switches perf levels often enough that the bug will happen relatively soon.
At first I thought it was an issue with the writeback feature that caches certain register values because it also caches an rptr value that is used in the driver's gpu_lockup_check and is, to my knowledge, never actually written to.
Buuut using radeon.no_wb=1 doesn't help. So if I've found a bug it is not the culprit of the lockups.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #64 from Alex Deucher alexdeucher@gmail.com --- (In reply to Julian from comment #63)
More likely it never gets written because the GPU has hung due to something else.
Buuut using radeon.no_wb=1 doesn't help. So if I've found a bug it is not the culprit of the lockups.
The no_wb option isn't really applicable on newer chips and most likely won't work. Newer hw does not support the necessary features to not support wb. It's mainly a leftover from the early radeons.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #65 from Julian jsbansen@gmail.com --- I've now tested the following configurations:
sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; pcie_dpm_key_disabled = 0; thermal_sclk_dpm_enabled = 0; ==> LOCKS UP - this is the default configuration
sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 1; mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 1; pcie_dpm_key_disabled = 1; thermal_sclk_dpm_enabled = 1; ==> NO LOCKUP
sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; pcie_dpm_key_disabled = 1; thermal_sclk_dpm_enabled = 1; ==> LOCKS UP
sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 1; pcie_dpm_key_disabled = 1; thermal_sclk_dpm_enabled = 1; ==> LOCKS UP
sclk_dpm_key_disabled = 1; mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 0; pcie_dpm_key_disabled = 1; thermal_sclk_dpm_enabled = 1; ==> NO LOCKUP - however, I periodically checked /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/radeon_pm_info and mclk never actually changed (always 150000). Maybe mclk usually always changes based on sclk? With slck locked, mclk wouldn't change either, even if unlocked.
(In reply to Alex Deucher from comment #64)
Sorry, I meant that I've searched the radeon source for the lines of code where the value was accessed from. I've only found instances of it being read, no instances of it being written to. But I won't put too much stock into that since I hardly know the code base at all. I plan to mess with the code a little now that I know how to compile single modules. If I find something substantial that this might be a bug, I'll open a new issue about it.

--- Comment #66 from Alex Deucher alexdeucher@gmail.com --- (In reply to Julian from comment #65)
The gpu writes to it. The driver only reads from it. The GPU shadows the value in system memory so that the driver doesn't have to read the register directly.

What card do you have?
You can try this as well: download and move the hawaii_k_smc.bin firmware image into /lib/firmware/radeon and rename it to hawaii_smc.bin (backup or delete the existing file). Boot into your normal unpatched Kernel and see if it works. That's what I'm doing right now and it works for me.
Just keep in mind that this might break your Linux install if it doesn't work (so having a live USB/CD and the backuped firmware file is handy).

--- Comment #79 from Ioannis Panagiotopoulos yiannispana@hotmail.com --- Ok, after further testing, It ends up that it might be a xserver driver problem. I downgraded to ver 7.3.0 x-server driver and the system booted with dpm enabled, however the Xserver did not have Hardware acceleration. Upgrading to the latest (7.6.x), makes the x-server fail to start with enabled dpm.

I don't know if it can help upstream, but Alex asked in comment #1 for vbios dump, perhaps he will need yours too! (he wrote how to do that)
(In reply to Ioannis Panagiotopoulos from comment #79)
Well, if your Xserver is not able to get DRI working, you probably do not have the opportunity to trigger the bug. It's something you must fix first. ^_^
To prevent the auto profile to hang up your GPU while you're playing with your xserver to fix it while dpm is enabled, do something like that, they looks like safe options for some people like me:
echo 'low' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level' echo 'battery' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_state'
After you get your xserver working with direct rendering enabled, try to do:
echo 'auto' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level'
and see if it still crashes.

--- Comment #82 from Ioannis Panagiotopoulos yiannispana@hotmail.com --- I used your method, but it worked 2 out of my 5 attempts. To be precise, I booted on text mode, set the values as you wrote and then startx. On successful starts, the environment was still slow, despite the Xorg.log stating that acceleration was on. The successful starts did not last very long however, as they crashed after 1-2 minutes.
I attached my GPU Vbios.

--- Comment #83 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net --- (In reply to Ioannis Panagiotopoulos from comment #82)
the environment was still slow, despite the Xorg.log stating that acceleration was on.
Yeah, that was a "low" profile, so it was expected to be slow… You can do that to get a "high" profile:
echo 'high' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level' echo 'performance' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_state'
But by the way:
The successful starts did not last very long however, as they crashed after 1-2 minutes.
If you still get a hang using a profile different than "auto" it looks like you are facing an issue I never got myself… It means the bug is wider than expected, it's not a good news. I can't help more at this point, I hope someone else will have an answer.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #84 from Ioannis Panagiotopoulos yiannispana@hotmail.com --- (In reply to Thomas DEBESSE from comment #83) I did further testing. I used a script on init.d to assign the values before xserver starts, and managed to get a working system with the parameters set on low, battery. I created 2 scripts to run after the system boot with dpm enabled, to toggle between low/battery to high/performance and vice versa. Changing from low to high succeeds and x server runs well. I even run a 3d game for about 10 minutes without problem. However when using the script to change back to low/battery, the system crashes with black screen. I tested this case 3 times and crashed all 3 when set from high to low.
--- Comment #85 from Jonas jojonintendo@tutanota.com --- I just tried the hawaii_k_smc.bin as in comment #77, and it worked great. I could play every game I have installed without problem. Some games still don't work as they should (worse performance than my old 7770), but most of them work great.
Now I'm using latest .bin files as pointed out in comment #32 and it still works great.
So, it's definitely getting better, at least for some of us :). Thanks for your hard work!

--- Comment #89 from Orlando Nigro nigro.orlando@gmail.com --- Hi! I have been reading this bugreport since several days since it seems to be very cloase to my situation!
I have a MSI r9 390. I have debian jessie with kernel 4.3, latest Mesa, and I also installed "firmware-amd-graphics" as jonas wrote in Comment 23.
As it is now I can start debian both with Mate and Gnome, and of course Gnome freezes much faster while it takes a while for Mate, also because, for some reason, all the graphic funcionalities are deactivated in Mate, the docky doesn't allow me to choose 3d icons for instance. Gnome looks much better with all its windows-effects and nice graphic and it makes me think that, a part from the freezing, the open source drivers work fine.
I have been making lots of tests, using different distribution with different drivers, kernels and DE but nothing, same problem all the time! I get black screens while working. I haven't tried yet to change the DPM, and I think that it could be the solution! (I hope) I intend to do it now and run some tests! But I have a couple of question first. Should I dowload the unicode as recommended by many like this
http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/
or this:
people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/k/hawaii_k_smc.bin
or will the ones I have got in the debian package be enough?
Do I only need to run this command to make the tests: echo 'high' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level'
Or a do I need to stop the xserver first? (would it be gdm? I choose lightdm when I installed gnome alongside Mate)
I apologize for all the questions that should be obvious after all the great work you have done in this report but I'm afraid to do wrong and I'm not much of an expert.

--- Comment #90 from Jonas jojonintendo@tutanota.com --- comment #32 is really all you need right now. I tried it in Arch Linux and it also works like a charm. Just follow instructions on comment #77 for the "k" firmware and you're good to go. You shouldn't need to change anything in "/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level", since this was to avoid the problem. Now the default behaviour (the automated dpm one) works with latest firmware.
I hope you can get it to work too :).
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #91 from Orlando Nigro nigro.orlando@gmail.com --- it didn't work :(. I downloaded the firmware (the k one) changed the name and replaced the old one. I reboot and without change the DPM value it freezes after a while. Now I'm back using the echo-command when I login and it's the only way to make the GPU work. Do I maybe have to do more after replacing the file? Run some command?

I do not mean to sound overly impatient, but this bug has been reported on 2015-09-04 15:00 UTC. Today it is 2016-04-14 06:15 UTC.
Also, http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/k/hawaii_k_smc.bin has modification date 2015-12-10 05:36.
If hawaii_k_smc.bin is better than hawaii_smc.bin, then why hasn't it been uploaded to git.kernel.org firmware tree?
Why is http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/comm... different from hawaii_k_smc.bin?
Does, or doesn't, hawaii_smc.bin uploaded to git.kernel.org on 2016-03-31 01:15:57 GMT contain the fix for this freedesktop.org bug?
Could the problem be that hawaii_k_smc.bin for R9 390 is incompatible with R9 290? In that case the solution would be to create grenada_smc.bin.
There are too many contradictions for me to understand the situation.

--- Comment #97 from Jonas jojonintendo@tutanota.com --- Actually, it sure is annoying to have to change files on every firmware update. Today's firmware update in Arch Linux broke DPM again. After using firmware files of 16 october 2015, everything is fine again.

--- Comment #100 from John Frei johann_frei@yahoo.de --- Unfortunately the new ucode (hawaii_k_smc.bin) file doesn't work for me.
I don't know if it does matter but as I tried to install a Hackintosh system recently I expericenced EXACTLY the same symptom(black screen, unresponsive system) after a couple of minutes.
One could argue that it's a complete different setup but it is the fact that if I disable the GraphicsEnabler then the black screen issue vanishes. So maybe one can assume that the dpm (via hardware) is corrupt.
Is it possible to try (experimentally) the new amdgpu-pro driver for r9 390 on Ubuntu 16.04? Or can we expect to receive the same issue as the all-open stack, either way?

--- Comment #101 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net ---
Is it possible to try (experimentally) the new amdgpu-pro driver for r9 390 on Ubuntu 16.04?
I did it :
1. some wrong firmware issue message 2. very poor performance (worst than radeon with "low battery" profile), probably reclocking issue 3. EDID issue (you have to add modeline for your screen resolution by hand) 4. Proprietary advanced stuff based on amdgpu is broken (like OpenCL not working due to wrong vram size reporting) 5. etc.
The amdgpu driver has a very big problem: it's a driver without user. I mean, it works almost only on APU because it's the current market for GCN 1.2, it means it works for people who have a laptop to not do OpenCL nor Vulkan, but people owning powerful GPU still have GCN 1.1 hardware since it's still the market for powerful GPU.

GPU: R9 390 GPU manufacturer: Gigabyte Kernel: 4.5.5 Kernel module: radeon.ko
I applied the kernel patches and let Metro Last Light benchmark run for about an hour with DPM enabled while I went shopping.
Before the patch: The benchmark would lock the GPU after a while
After the patch: Running OK for about an hour
I checked that 'new_smc' variable in radeon/cik.c gets set to 1.
----
Remaining issues on R9 390 after the patch:
Heavy screen flickering, not capturable on a screenshot. It is related to mclk transitions. Forcing mclk=1.5GHz, and letting sclk be controlled by DPM, removes the flickering.
I created a new bugzilla entry related to the flickering: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96326
----
GPU lockup in http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92302 might have the same cause as this issue.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #106 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net --- If the latest amdgpu-pro release (16.30.3) includes the patches from Comment 104 , it means these patches fix the bug since it's the first amdgpu driver I can run without seeing my system hanging and without having to do any workaround. So, it probably means the same patches work for radeon too if they do exactly the same on the radeon side.

My impression is that a few different issues are being discussed in this one ticket, and that is hampering progress. Not quite sure what the right split would be (if we were to close this and replace with N more focused tickets) but probably one of them should be for stability problems when running the -k firmware and checking whether locking dpm level to performance makes a difference.

My question would be: Why isn't the _k patch already in linux-git?
I tested the patch on my R9 390, so the Hawaii-specific part of the patch works on at least one machine in the world outside of freedesktop.org.
Or is there a reason to delay patch submission to linux-git?
_k firmware files are already available in Gentoo Linux for example.

--- Comment #110 from Chris Waters doublebytegames@gmail.com --- (In reply to John Bridgman from comment #108)
Chris, are you using the -k firmware files and associated kernel patches, updated initrd if needed, etc... ?
I have not for two reasons.
1. As Christoffer mentions, the _k firmware only seems good for the 390X
2. I'm unfamiliar with the process of doing such and the steps for doing it are spread across 100+ comments with no real sign of what steps are the right ones.
Still, these issues make using an 390 or 390X on Linux a nightmare. This issue isn't "minor" and its importance rating should reflect that. This is a major (or even critical) bug report, IMO.
One that has been open for 10 months, I might add.

--- Comment #111 from John Bridgman john.bridgman@amd.com --- (In reply to Jan Ziak from comment #109)
The patch is queued up for 4.8. It's the usual chicken-and-egg problem... if we can't get enough users testing a patch early in a kernel cycle then it ends up having to wait for the next merge window.
(In reply to Chris Waters from comment #110)
I think that is part of the "few different issues" point. The -k microcode may not be the only change required but AFAIK it is one part of the solution.
In other words if the patch and new ucode don't fix the problem that's still useful information, and it doesn't mean the new ucode isn't worth running.

--- Comment #115 from Jonas jojonintendo@tutanota.com --- I'll try to sum up, to help a little if some people are confused about the process of "workarounding" it.
1) Go here: https://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/hawaii 2) Download every file. 3) Go here https://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/k/ 4) Download hawaii_k_smc.bin 5) Rename this file to hawaii_smc.bin (to replace the one you have from step 2) 6) Put all those files in your "firmware" folder (in my case /usr/lib/firmware/radeon), make a backup of those before, if you want. 7) Reboot & enjoy.
For some people it seems necessary to update initrd, but in my case (Arch Linux), only a reboot gives me good DPM support and it almost never crashes. On every firmware update on your system, you might have to repeat all the steps (until those files are used on your distro by default).
I hope it is somewhat easier to get it working.

--- Comment #125 from Christoph Seifert christoph.seifert27@googlemail.com --- For me switching power states does also result in a system freeze. With radeon.dpm = 0 everthing is working properly but slowly. If I switch manually to another power profile (e.g. echo high > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile) I got a freeze likewise. With radeon.dpm = 1 the freeze happens after a few seconds of video playback or some other load, ergo if the card changes its power profile.
The work around (k firmware) from comment #115 does not work for me. Same behaviour as without.
So I tried disabling specific DPM features as suggested by Alex Deucher in comment #60. Disabling mclk (pi->mclk_dpm_key_disabled = 1) does the trick for my card but the performance is similar to the radeon.dpm = 0 kernel parameter.
With radeon.dpm = 1 and only mclk disabled, the sclk (core clock) adjusts just fine. High on load, low on no load. The mclk (memory clock) is just fixed at 150 Mhz.
So the freezes seems to be caused by switching memory clock.
Any hints for digging deeper?
My card is a MSI Radeon R9 390 too. Linux Kernel 4.8.6 Mesa 13.0.0rc2

--- Comment #126 from Jan Ziak 0xe2.0x9a.0x9b@gmail.com --- Resolution of this bug is critical for CONFIG_DRM_AMDGPU_CIK to move from experimental to non-experimental state.

--- Comment #127 from Chris Waters doublebytegames@gmail.com --- I've noticed that on my Win7 install if I up the memory clock a good (1700MHz+) bit I'll get the same exact artifacts as I would in Linux. Maybe the driver is trying to switch to too high of a clock for memory?
Second question, is there any way to just force the memory clock to stay at 1500MHz? If the bug is caused by memory switching (and not the memory being clocked way too high), then forcing the memory to stay at the max standard clock should give us the stability of 150MHz.

Some months ago, I thought it was just mclk switching. But today I am not so sure about it.
Executing the following steps on my machine with an R9 390:
- lock mclk to 1500MHz - start playing Mad Max via Steam - switch to the game map via gamepad or keyboard (https://www.google.sk/search?q=mad+max+game+map&tbm=isch)
results in noticeable screen image flickering.
If I disable the lowest 300 MHz shader clock, so that the minimum shader clock is 500 MHz and maximum is 1000 MHz, the flickering disappears.

What about lower settings than 500 MHz? Did you try 400 MHz or even 350?

--- Comment #130 from Chris Waters doublebytegames@gmail.com --- This bug has been marked as 'critical' for over a month now, has there been any work on this in that time?

--- Comment #132 from Filip Brygidyn brygidyn.filip+freedesktop@gmail.com --- I am experiecing the same freezes on my updated arch box (kernel 4.8.11-2, mesa 13.0.2-2) with my MSI R9 390. Without radeon.dpm=0 I observe the following: - I can get into and stay in tty with no crashes - I experience wierd filckering/'image jumping'. (Not artifacts) - With 2 monitors connected the mentioned flickering is unbearable and the image jumps so much it's hard to see anything. (and it gets worse over time) - After I start a window manager (xfce in my case) the system will freeze at the moment I cause any major load. This would support the ongoing suspition that the problem may be caused by clock or voltage changes.
With radeon.dpm=0 I am yet to crash a single time in the similar way.
This may be unrelated but I experience similar (although much less frequently occuring) crashes under windows. The system would run perfectly fine under load or idle for a long time but when the load is changing the system sometimes freezes or crash with a BSOD. Good example would be when I am running a game and I alt-tab a lot, changing the load drasticaly from 100% to idle and back. That is the moment when crashes occur most frequently.
I am yet to try other firmware, mclk or other suggestions mentioned in here. Will post when I get enough time and motivation to tinker...

--- Comment #133 from Chris Waters doublebytegames@gmail.com --- I decided to record how my system behaves when using Linux and my 390 together.
This is what I see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uVIzHFlTZk
This is Ubuntu MATE 16.10 with Firefox open¹, something that is not at all graphically intensive. On KDE Plasma 5 it's even worse, my entire system will sometimes crash. It's completely unusable and I'm stuck on Windows because of this.
¹ I know there is a tab that says "Chrome Experiments", but it's unloaded. I tried loading one to see what would happen if I tried something a bit intensive, but my entire system crashed. Ended up having to restart recovered my session in Firefox.
This look the same for other 390 users?

--- Comment #136 from Chris Waters doublebytegames@gmail.com --- Can this be done without rebooting? I'd like to test this on a liveCD since, as I've said, I'm currently stuck on Windows. The idea of needing to install a distro just to test this is a bit unappealing to me.

--- Comment #137 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net --- (In reply to Chris Waters from comment #136)
It's not only it can, it must be done without rebooting, stuff in /sys are live settings, even on installed distro, you must expect to lose them on reboot, it's a fake file system, writing there does not write something on your hard disk, reading and writing there is just reading and writing bits in memory with a file system view for convenience.
Beware, there is a little mistake in Jan Ziak's directives (missing a leading slash before “sys”), this is ok:
$ echo manual > /sys/class/drm/card1/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level $ echo 1234567 > /sys/class/drm/card1/device/pp_dpm_sclk
Do that *and do not reboot* or you'll lose the changes so you will never test them. The way to test them is to apply these changes at runtime and doing stuff without rebooting. If you reboot you'll lose the change.

--- Comment #138 from Chris Waters doublebytegames@gmail.com --- Update:
Finally had time to boot a liveCD (Ubuntu MATE 16.10) and try this all out.
I have multiple card listings in /sys/class/drm, but only one that is a card# folder (ie card0), the rest are all variations on card0 plus port type (eg card0-HDMI-A-1).
I have no pp_dpm_sclk in /sys/class/drm/card0/device/ so I'm unable to do the first command.
I have power_dpm_force_performance_level and I was going to at least try setting it to manual just to see, but echo says "write error: Invalid argument" when doing it as root and bash complains about lack of permissions when not root (sudo makes no difference).
Mesa version is 12.0.3, so I'm grabbing Manjaro since that is running on Mesa 13 and will test there.

Manjaro (both stable and development) is running on Linux kernel 4.4.
Ubuntu MATE 16.10 is running on Linux kernel 4.8.0, but it has CONFIG_DRM_AMDGPU_CIK disabled in kernel configuration and is loading radeon.ko instead of amdgpu.ko.
The following 3 commands can be used to check whether amdgpu+CIK are enabled:
$ uname -r 4.8.0 (or later version)
$ lsmod | grep amdgpu amdgpu
$ zgrep CIK /proc/config.gz CONFIG_DRM_AMDGPU_CIK=y
An alternative form of the last command:
$ grep CIK /boot/config-$(uname -r) CONFIG_DRM_AMDGPU_CIK=y

At what point did we go from talking about radeon, the driver this bug report is about, to amdgpu?
This freedesktop.org bug is a Mesa bug. The bug title is "Radeonsi ...".
If the visual artifacting issue is solved in radeon.ko, the patch will probably be in short time applied to amdgpu.ko, and vice versa.
Isn't support and performance for GCN 1.1 cards rather bad on amdgpu compared to radeon?
Support for R9 390/390X (Grenada) in amdgpu.ko is basically equivalent to radeon.ko (at least on my machine). Performance is very similar too.
amdgpu.ko and radeon.ko are loading the same firmware files for R9 390/390X (/lib/firmware/radeon/{hawaii,HAWAII}*.bin).

--- Comment #143 from Harald Judt h.judt@gmx.at --- I have merged https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux/log/?h=drm-next-4.10-wip into 4.9 and am now using amdgpu with the r9 390, and everything works great so far except that the cursor is no longer visible after hibernating and resuming, but switching to SWCursor resolves this, so this is a viable workaround. I will open another bug for this, but it is only a minor issue for me. With radeon, DPM still fails to resume properly for the 390 after hibernation.

--- Comment #150 from Alfredo Mendez zone545@outlook.com --- I have an ASUS Strix R9 390 and attempted to get it to work, in a nutshell for those looking for redemption... it didn't work.
I tried to switch drivers from radeon to amdgpu, and both equally fail randomly. Setting the DPM to zero reduces the chances of black screening, but expect to encounter them either way. Simply put, the drivers are still bad for the 390's.
This bug is about to become three years old, and while 17.04 already came out with the same issue, this should be set to its highest level, its been long overdue with no real progress. I would love to collaborate in fixing this issue, but I am simply below the average linux user standard.

The only thing that worked for me was radeon.dpm=0 but, well, (expletive), my 400€ card has been reduced to a 40€ card thanks to this.
I can report that I tried #115 and it didn't solve it for me. What it did though, was to delay the crash from 10 seconds to about one 30-60 seconds (I'm getting a full hard crash with black screen, dead I/O, all fans maxing out, regardless of what I'm doing, if I'm fast I can get to run Unigine Valley for a bit, if I don't then it can crash while desktop is sitting idle).
I'm not very Linux-handy, but if anybody needs my system as a guinea pig for hopefully solving this, please let me know, I'm willing to help.

I've literally been doing: "echo high > /sys/class/device/drm/card0/power_dpm_force_performance_level" every day to boot my machine for over a year hoping that this might get fixed but, I've seen practically no progress made on this bug. After attempting to use kernel 4.13, it becomes unstable and crashes faster than I can duck out into a TTY so, it's almost like the problem is getting worse as time goes on. This is literally a crippling bug and I find it astonishing that something, like locking VRAM clocks and making 500Mhz the minimum core clock for all 390s hasn't been implemented as a stopgap measure to at least get the thing stable. For crying out loud, this bug has been open for 2 years now and has been reproduced by several different people, or do we have to wait another 2 years before we're told that it won't be fixed?

--- Comment #167 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net --- Created attachment 134124 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=134124&action=edit kernel patch: set "high" default DPM profile instead of "auto" for 0x67B1 variant
So, using my 0x67B0 variant, new firmware and "auto" profile I was able to run the vkQuake Vulkan game, the Unvanquished OpenGL game, the Unigine Superposition OpenGL benchmark, the Luxmark Hotel OpenCL benchmark, and did some OpenCL tasks with Darktable photo software. In fact in the past, just running Gnome Shell (even the one run by GDM) was enough to take down the computer.
I remember having tried the "auto" profile with new firmware in the past but I had to to return to "low" or "high" profile because at this time the firmware update just made the hang less immediate, but the hang was still happening randomly, it was just happening lately. The bug appears to now be gone on my end.
Everything looks fine on my 0x67B0 variant so it looks like the firmware and some kernel updates did the trick for me (I'm now running Linux 4.12).
So, the only remaining variant known to be faulty is the 0x67B1 one.
So forget what I've said about the MSI 39 390X, it's now a model known to work.
Since the only affected model looks to be the 0x67B1 variant, I wrote this small patch that must set "auto" as DPM profile on AMD GPU except for the 0x67B1 HAWAII variant which will use "high" as default. This patch does not prevent the user to force the "auto" DPM profile by itself, but the "high" one must now be set by default on this known variant.
I'm not able to test this patch since my GPU is the 0x67B0 one and looks to not be affected by the bug anymore.
Before testing this patch, please check that you have the latest firmware for your card. If not, update your firmware first as explained in previous comments and check if it fixes the issue for you. If the latest firmware and a recent kernel is not enough for you, well, perhaps we will have to mainline this kernel change if AMD is not able to provide a fix.
This patch targets the 4.12 kernel tree but is so simple it must work on some other versions too.
A review by someone at AMD like Marek Olšák, Alex Deucher or John Bridgman who had participated in that thread would be very appreciated.

Jon Doane, to alleviate your pains, set radeon.dpm=0 as a boot option.
Crippling GPU performance is not a solution and doesn't alleviate pains because it basically forces me to not do anything 3d-related. I would rather boot with X disabled so I can force the perf level to high. This is what I used to do and it's not an acceptable solution.
(In reply to Thomas DEBESSE from comment #164)
This sounds a lot like what I've been doing manually which sounds nice. Thanks for the input. I honestly would like a solution that doesn't cause my machine to draw an additional 90 watts at idle though. As I said, I've been doing this for well over a year now and I'd prefer a solution, not a hack, considering how old this issue is.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #171 from Thomas DEBESSE dev@illwieckz.net ---
Unlike the kernel patch above, that systemd service is setting the GPU to "low battery" by default, which is the most energy saving profile. The provided `dpm query` tool allows you to change that at any time. That's what I'm doing: at init, my GPU is set to "low battery" profile, and when I need to do some heavy time, I do that:
dpm-query set all high performance
And then once the heavy task is done, I do that to save energy again:
dpm-query set all low battery
With the default config for the service, you just have to add your own user to the "video" group to have the right to change the profile as user.
So, even if the patch above get merged one day, this service and tool is still useful, it's an easy way to change the default profile, whatever the default is.
Notice that the kernel patch above only set the level to "high", but keep the state to "balanced", so it's still adaptative. What "high balanced" does is setting the shader and memory frequencies to the max, which is drawing more power than default, but you will notice the fan are still idling and stopped if you do nothing because it's still saving a lot of energy. If you set "high performance" the fan will almost instantaneously start because there is no saving anymore. So "high balanced" is less energy saving that "auto balanced", but is still saving a lot of energy because it does not have to cold the chip while doing nothing (meaning the chip does nothing strong enough to get hot).

Unless something has changed with how the dpm state is handled, I don't expect that to make the system completely stable. They're more stable than balanced but, it's not stable enough to prevent a crash. I tried by starting off with: echo low > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level
The only method that I've had luck with while retaining clock scaling is this: echo 234567 > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_dpm_sclk
This disables the 300Mhz clock step which seems to work however, I've observed that doing this also forced memory clocks to full tilt instead of idle so, I'm uncertain if the memory clock or core clock is responsible.
Something I've observed is that if my machine crashes and I use the reset button to restart it, that when X loads and if I don't force clocks up, it always crashes and that part of the old image that was on the screen when it initially crashed gets displayed, albeit rather garbled but, enough to identify it which makes me think that it's related to the memory clock or how GPU memory is managed.
One way or another, I have ways around the problem but, these are hacks that would be considered intolerable solutions by a regular user.

Hmm, until now the discussion only talked about level (low, auto, high) and not state (battery, balanced, performance), it was suspected "auto" level being faulty, but no one yet suspected "balanced" state being faulty. It's currently assumed any state is working but one level is not (auto). Perhaps that's a wrong assumption by the way. Have you specifically experienced an issue due to the "balanced" state and not due to the "auto" level that is commonly used with it?
Oh yes I forgot this trick because on my end using "low" or "high" level is enough so I never had to mess with that. By the way when I'm on "low" level I'm running at 300MHz and it runs nicely for weeks (i.e. until I reboot for something unrelated like a kernel upgrade).
One way or another, I have ways around the problem but, these are hacks that would be considered intolerable solutions by a regular user.
Sure, but if no one is going to fix that, it would be better to have these hacks applied by default and not expecting the user to do them by hand. Since more than two years now, running a LiveCD to install Linux on a system having an R9 390X leads to a crash while installing… A by-default hack would be better than nothing if no one is going to fix it.
I still don't understand why it's so hard for AMD employees to get their hand on AMD hardware to work on a fix, and we know the faulty models (0x67B0, 0x67B1) and many commercial names were listed.
Their AMDGPU-PRO driver looks to not be affected by the bug, so they have a fix somewhere. Why this fix can't make it's way to the open driver?

Yes I know, so what?
Is this a packaging issue like the firmware delivered not being the good one or things like that?

I've experienced this issue with both AMDGPU-Pro and AMDGPU with the same visual artifacts out of the box. The radeon driver seems to not have the same kind of visual artifacts that AMDGPU(-Pro) has but, it's just as unstable without intervention, at least for me. Changing the firmware didn't make enough of an impact to make my machine even close to stable by itself.

--- Comment #178 from Andrea Zanoni petercottero@gmail.com --- I have the same issues with an MSI R9 390 running on a MSI Z170A GAMING M5 motherboard.
The only way I can even use the card, avoiding constant black screens and os lockup, is to use the DPM Query service (https://github.com/illwieckz/dpm-query/) and force the dpm level on "high" and the state profile on "performance".
If I try to revert to the "low" level, I get this:
ERROR: card0/power_dpm_force_performance_level does not accept "low"

--- Comment #180 from xuka@amail.club ---
From watching this bug progress over the last two years and not really
improving, I guess this problem is never going to get fixed, at least not too soon.
From my testing last year, it would seem that the majority who have this
problem own the MSI brand one, both 390 an 390x have the problem, and there isn't a proper workaround for it besides forcing the memory(maybe core) clock high, so it would seem that the clock is not being set correctly, or the "sensor" isn't realizing that clock should be increased.
I have tried every kernel from the past year in hopes that this problem would be solved, with no successful test, I have tried using both AMDGPU and radeon modules, while blacklisting the other to make sure that there was not a problem with one, and still no success.
On Windows 10, there is never an issue with artifacts, or crashes.
If there is anyway to get this on a fast track to being fixed, please let everyone know, so that we can help, that is what community is for...I think.

--- Comment #182 from Chris Heald cheald@gmail.com --- Just adding a data point here, I've got an MSI R9 390 running on Ubuntu 18.04 on 4.15.0-10-generic - I haven't had any stability issues, but I have had maddening screen flickering/corruption.
I'm running dual 2560x1440 monitors off the card, which forces the memory clock to 1500MHz. However, when the GPU clock is at the 300MHz level, I get horrendous artifacting any time an accelerated portion of the screen is drawn. I can easily reproduce the issue by mousing over certain KDE widgets which are acclerated. Interestingly, running glxgears doesn't cause the issue.
* Setting power_dpm_force_performance_level -> high fixes it (but runs the clock up to its max, obviously) * Setting power_dpm_force_performance_level -> manual and then `echo 1234567 > pp_dpm_sclk` fixes it, with the GPU clock fixed to 500MHz.
I've been up and down this issue with both radeon and amdgpu drivers; neither seems to make a difference.

--- Comment #186 from Chris Heald cheald@gmail.com --- I've been doing a lot of experimentation, and I've found a few more things that I feel are probably related:
* I can force a system hard-lock by doing anything which disables a monitor. Notably, going full-screen under KDE/Xorg does this, but I can trigger it just as easily by disabling a monitor with xrandr. Fullscreen under gnome doesn't seem to trigger the issue, which I suspect is due to gnome's using mutter for screen management.
* Occassioanlly, the system boots up and gets stuck with a 150MHz memory clock, rather than clocking up to the 1500MHz state. This causes the display corruption even if the sclk is set to 500MHz+. Setting the mclk mask manually fixes display corruption.
* I've been experimenting with different kernels ranging from 4.4 to 4.16rc5. Earlier kernels feel more susceptible to hard-locking, though the later kernels aren't immune to it.
* I tried a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 LTS install, and while it did NOT exhibit the artifacting behavior, the system hard-locked within a few minutes of light desktop usage.
I've had a few classes of exceptions show up in kern.log:

--- Comment #187 from Lauri Gustafsson luutifa@gmail.com --- About "I can force a system hard-lock by doing anything which disables a monitor", on my system it used to crash more frequently the less desktop area I had. Small resolution monitor crashes often, multi monitor setup less often. But I don't have the hardware any more so I can't test if it still works that way.

--- Comment #188 from chrisg_123@hotmail.com --- I suffered pretty much all of the issue listed in this thread for many weeks since upgrading to 3 1440p monitors.
I have an Club 3D R9 390 Royal Queen.
Comment #182 best describes the problem I faced and what I had to do to work around it.
I am happy to announce that kernel 4.16.7 has solved this issue for me.
My system has no more issues booting. KDE is stable. No flickering at all. Even when forcing power_dpm_force_performance_level to 'low'.
I'm running Gentoo with: mesa-18.1.0 libdrm-2.4.91 xf86-video-amdgpu-18.0.1 xorg-drivers-1.19
kernel params include: radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1 amdgpu.modeset=1 amdgpu.dc=1 amdgpu.dpm=1
If anyone needs more info please ask.

--- Comment #189 from tkdestroyer2+bugs-freedesktop@gmail.com --- I tried what chris suggested, and it worked up until the point at which some X session closes (right after login or after exiting basic xterm test session), where the system locks up. They seem to have patched 4.16.*, which was totally broken before for me on 4.16.2. I guess I'll keep doing my dpm=0 thing for now.

--- Comment #190 from notog@amail.club --- With 4.16.6, it seems to be fixed! With a fresh installation of Antergos 18.4, tested with different kernel arguments, `radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1 amdgpu.dpm=1` is all that's needed to work fine. amdgpu.modeset=1 does not actually do anything according to logs. I ran different tests from glxgears to unigine valley and heaven, they seemed to work fine without any issues.

--- Comment #191 from notog@amail.club --- I did some more testing this time with Arch Linux, I started with kernel 4.16.6-1, and went back two months, one month at a time using the Arch Linux Archive. I never ran into an issue. It would seem that this issue might have been fixed a few months ago.
The solution is to switch from Radeon, to AMDGPU. It seems that AMDGPU DPM is needed to fix the issue entirely, at least in my case.
device: MSI R9 390 Gaming 8G distro: Arch Linux kernel: 4.16.6-1, 4.15.13-1 and 4.15.5-1 mesa: 18.0.2-1, 17.3.7-1 and 17.3.5-1 xorg-server: 1.19.6+13+gd0d1a694f-1 xf86-video-amdgpu: 18.0.1-1 and 1.4.0-1
In all cases I appended the following kernel arguments: radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1 amdgpu.dpm=1 amdgpu.dc=1
radeon.cik_support=0 Disables Radeon CIK(Sea Island) Support amdgpu.cik_support=1 Enables AMDGPU CIK(Sea Island) Support amdgpu.dpm=1 Enables DPM support amdgpu.dc=1 Enables Display Core driver

I tested with the APItrace file that I uploaded, still broken on 4.16.7 .
I updated to 4.16.7 and replayed the APItrace file uploaded in comment #181 I also tried setting the env variable vblank_mode=0, so there was no vsync/fps cap. I then tried suspending and resuming, and rerunning the APItrace, and it was fine. I did not experience any artifacting or corruptions in either test.
So there are still issues with the XFX branded R9 390. :(

--- Comment #194 from Sandeep sandy.8925@gmail.com --- So, I had never used amdgpu.dc=1 and amdgpu.dpm=1 kernel parameters when testing earlier.
I tried using them now, with the 4.16.7 kernel, and replayed the APItrace file. No crashes! Finally.
Well, this is still a workaround, but atleast it works. I doubt it has anything to do with DC, although it's possible......

setting dpm=1 uses the new powerplay code rather than the old dpm code for power management on CI parts.

It would be great if it worked out of the box though, without having to add kernel parameters.....

Clock scaling appears to be working as expected and I haven't had any visual artifacts or crashes to speak of yet. Using "amdgpu.dc=1" alone didn't make a difference but, "amdgpu.dpm=1" made all the difference.
Good work to everyone involved!

what parts of the grub-line do i need to add or delete to get things working, fixed as suggested in this thread? do i still have the wrong kernel?

Thanks for the reply. In the problem reporting app it is written as "Unexpeted System Error" The system has encountered a problem and recovered.
The reason is as i wrote: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 369 at drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dm_services.h:132 generic_reg_update_ex+0x12c/0x160 [amdgpu]
so the system errors can occur as warnings? then i can live with it but i wasn't sure because it was labeled as system error...
thanks again. i will go on with that and hope no freezes appear.

--- Comment #202 from Ioannis Panagiotopoulos yiannispana@hotmail.com --- Can confirm that worked with kernel 4.16.7-300 on Fedora 28 Gnome with wayland and the right boot arguments. However this worked when I had the R9 390 installed alone. When I used both the R9 390 and Rx 550 on the same system, the display plugged on the R9 390 did not work correctly and produced broken UI elements from time to time. Furthermore UI was very slow on response. When tried Fedora 28 KDE, SDDM was constantly crashing when it tried to start and stuck on a loop try-to-start->crash->try-to-start. Kubuntu 18.04 KDE worked, but had the same issues as Fedora 28 Gnome. So it seems the dpm bug is at last solved despite the other problems that might be unrelated to dpm.
(In reply to heavyjoe from comment #201)
if you installed the kernel manually, then try to install the kernel-modules-extra package of this kernel version as well.

You need to:
a) Upgrade the kernel to a newer version.
b) Add boot parameters
There are guides online for these. Search for one in your distribution (e.g. Gentoo, Arch, Ubuntu).
I myself still get kernel panics on latest (4.17.12) and freezes and whatnot. Older versions with dpm=0 are my only success.

--- Comment #205 from emilio.moretti@gmail.com --- kernel >4.17 did NOT work.
It didn't hang while using the PC, but it did freeze when the power management tried to power off my both monitors. One of them was successfully powered off, while the other showed the mouse cursor in the screen.
There are no system logs, as it froze so hard that not even "REISUB" worked.
Again, this works OK using Radeon.
Details: kernel 4.18.1 Ubuntu 18.04.1 + stock Mesa (no upgrades here) Sapphire AMD GPU 390x 8GB DVI + Display port connected. The display port actually has an adapter to get VGA, and the DVI goes straight to the 1080p dell monitor. The monitor that worked OK when turned off was connected to the VGA adapter in the display port. The DVI port was the one that showed the mouse cursor.
Running on a Ryzen 1800X. The processor had his own stability problems a few months ago, but a BIOS update fixed that.
The only way to get the PC to a stable state with the amd 390x is to blacklist amdgpu, so the power management doesn't freeze the system when I leave it alone for a couple of minutes.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #206 from Sandeep sandy.8925@gmail.com --- You've got to make sure that radeon and amdgpu drivers don't clash.
Try the following kernel parameters: radeon.si_support=0 radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.si_support=1 amdgpu.cik_support=1 amdgpu.dpm=1
That's what I use and it works fine for me.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91880
--- Comment #207 from emilio.moretti@gmail.com --- (In reply to Sandeep from comment #206)
Thanks, but I did that. Here is my process:
Stable system configuration (power management doesn't crash): 1) Make sure amdgpu is blacklisted: # vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf -> add "blacklist amdgpu" at the bottom # update-initramfs -u -k all
2) Update grub parameters: # vim /etc/default/grub -> Set the correct defaults: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="radeon.cik_support=1 amdgpu.cik_support=0" # update-grub
3) reboot the system
Unstable system configuration (power management crashes the entire system when it tries to power off the monitors): 1) Make sure amdgpu can be loaded: # vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf -> add "blacklist amdgpu" at the bottom # update-initramfs -u -k all
2) Update grub parameters: # vim /etc/default/grub -> Set the correct defaults: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1 amdgpu.modeset=1 amdgpu.dc=1 amdgpu.dpm=1" # update-grub
3) reboot the system
It's a fairly easy way to test it as is freezes every time you leave the PC idle. I haven't seen it crash during my daily usage, but it does crash when the power management kicks in.

--- Comment #208 from emilio.moretti@gmail.com --- (In reply to emilio.moretti from comment #207)
oh, sorry. There is a "typo" in my previous answer. For the unstable system you need to remove amdgpu from the blacklisted modules. Let me "correct" the unstable system configuration:
1) Make sure amdgpu can be loaded: # vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf -> REMOVE "blacklist amdgpu" at the bottom # update-initramfs -u -k all
2) Update grub parameters: # vim /etc/default/grub -> Set the correct defaults: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1 amdgpu.modeset=1 amdgpu.dc=1 amdgpu.dpm=1" # update-grub

--- Comment #209 from Sandeep sandy.8925@gmail.com --- Try removing the amdgpu.dc=1 kernel parameter. Might be causing problems. If not, then it's a bug in the driver.

--- Comment #210 from emilio.moretti@gmail.com --- (In reply to Sandeep from comment #209)
THANK YOU
Now it works. Looks like the DC code was causing troubles.
This is my current configuration for grub GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1 amdgpu.modeset=1 amdgpu.dc=0 amdgpu.dpm=1" I'm on kernel 4.18.3.
I left the PC running for hours and it didn't freeze. This was simply impossible before the new changes.
I also tried reducing the monitor shutdown to 1 minute, and it worked every single time I left it idle.
I think that I can finally confirm I'm no longer able to reproduce this bug, after 2 and a half years of using this card, and trying new kernels once a month.
