Bug ID: 108941 Summary: Enabling PP_OVERDRIVE_MASK with dual monitors causes artifacting Product: DRI Version: XOrg git Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) OS: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: medium Component: DRM/AMDgpu Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: boukehaarsma23@gmail.com
Steps to reproduce:
1) Have dual monitors 2) Enable PP_OVERDRIVE_MASK by flipping the appropriate bit in amdgpu.ppfeaturemask. (For my configuration I used: 0xfffd7fff) 3) See artifacting.
When using default featuremask, or when using a single monitor with the overdrive bit enabled behaves correctly. I heard multiple people who have the same issue, so it does not seem related to my setup.
Setup: RX480 Linux 4.20-rc5
If additional information is needed please let me know.

I've just recently chatted to boukehaarsma23 about it, as it also affects me.
I have uploaded a video of what this looks like which you can see here:

Interestingly the artifact lines appear to be aligned across the screens, vsync?
The main reason though I first came across this is by trying to manually downclock my GPU. With 2x 60Hz HDMI 1080p monitors attached the GPU is constantly in a higher power state (both mclkc and sclk) and wastes a considerable amount of power at idle. This is not a problem with 1 monitor attached.
Also of note is that even with 2 monitors attached this does not occur on Windows where the GPU idles at 300MCLK/300SCLK and is significantly cooler.
For comparison about power, according to my UPS my system idles at 112-128W when the GPU's are downclocking appropriately(1 monitor). This measurement matches with Windows where the GPU is downclocking to state 0 appropriately.
When it's not downclocking appropriately (2x monitors) it idles at anywhere between 160-176Watt.
Setup: 2x RX580 Gigabyte 8G (Monitors both on GPU0) Linux 4.19.4 (Arch Main) Latest stable KDE Plasma on X
