Bug ID: 196189 Summary: [BISECTED][REGRESSION] Nouveau on NVA8 renders the system unusable Product: Drivers Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: > 4.11 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: high Priority: P1 Component: Video(DRI - non Intel) Assignee: drivers_video-dri@kernel-bugs.osdl.org Reporter: daniel.otero@outlook.com Regression: No
Happens every single boot. The system becomes unresponsive seconds after boot and the fan go to full speed until I force the system to shutdown.
Sometimes the screen stays completely black, other times it shows the console login prompt (no X involved), but the system it's barely usable.
Bisected the offending commit, and resulted this one:
No unusual kernel message until I enable "drm.debug=14" (find that out in ArchLinux wiki, because I have no idea how to enable nouveau debug messages) that this 4 error messages appear:
System details:
Thank you for your time.

--- Comment #1 from Ilia Mirkin (imirkin@alum.mit.edu) --- The case of the OOB messages should already be fixed in mainline, and I suspect they are unrelated to your issue. (I assume you see them on the commit prior to the one you bisected to as well?)
To get more nouveau debugging messages, you can do nouveau.debug=debug or nouveau.debug=trace.
Thank you for doing the bisect - that is very useful. Most graphics-related bugs are actually not hosted on the kernel bugzilla. I wish there were some way to indicate this. See
https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Bugs/
for the proper procedure to file nouveau bugs (although I believe this holds for all graphics drivers).

--- Comment #2 from Daniel Otero (daniel.otero@outlook.com) --- Sorry about that.
I already open a bug in the freedesktop bugzilla (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101587) so I will close this one.
And, you're right, the OOB messages seems unrelated as it also appear in the previous working commit.
Thanks!
