2.6.35-rc6+: i915: Bisected regression

drm/i915: implement BSD ring buffer V2
The BSD (bit stream decoder) ring is used for accessing the BSD engine
which decodes video bitstream for H.264 and VC1 on G45+. It is
asynchronous with the render ring and has access to separate parts of
the GPU from it, though the render cache is coherent between the two.

git revert didn't work on 2.6.35-rc6 so I just changed the HAS_BSD thing to:
#define HAS_BSD(dev) (0)
with this change applied suspend to ram is back to the reliability of 2.6.34.y
with kind regards

Added CCs.
Thomas, on what hardware did you observe the regression? Is it suspend
or resume that is unreliable? What are the particular symptoms --- does
not suspend, crashes during suspend, crashes during resume...?

suspend never finishes/hangs.

Does not suspend, backlight is on.

and is randomly suffering from exactly the same problems...
So, I've applied your hint (in i915_drv.h), rebuilt a kernel, booted, and
I've now successfully managed to go thru several suspend/resume cycles
without having the machine hanging while suspend !
Will check in the long term, but so far, it's a win !
Thx,
Paul

I was suffering from the same problem which seem completely gone with
the suggested hint.

I have the same issue on a GM45 and Thomas's hack works in fixing it. It
is still present in 2.6.35.

David.

Seems to be fixed in 2.6.36-rc2. Probably by merge commit
4238a417a91643e1162a98770288f630e37f0484.
Paul, Roberto: Could you please confirm this on your hardware?
kind regards

I've just installed 2.6.36-rc2 on my machine, and I've tested a few
"Sleep", and so far, no problem any more...
So, I can't help you on the "is this the exact commit ?", but it is fixed
(or at least it looks as if ;)

Paul
