Arch Linux

If you blacklist the amdgpu module can you reproduce the issue?

I used the linux-lts (Linux arch 5.4.46-1-lts) for some time and it doesn't freeze.

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1137 contains a similar backtrace.

I've been having the same issue.
5.7.2-arch1-1
xf86-video-amdgpu-19.1.0-2

I'm having an issue that looks similar or the same as this one. In my case I'm not using amdgpu. Also going back to lts make things work. I've downgraded to 5.6.15. As noted above the issue seems to be that the video is not able to initialize properly. Looking at the logs I see the following ...

also freezes on Intel J4105 without external graphics or monitor attached. Do not think amdgpu is to blame here.

Same issue here even without display connected on a Ryzen 3200G (with Vega chipset embedded)
Had this log before a crash happened

Same issue here. Getting a kernel fault randomly, sometimes after minutes, other times after hours. Soft locks the system and requires a hard shutdown to do anything. Attached is the kernel fault I'm getting.

Kernel: 5.7.2-arch1-1
Driver: xf86-video-amdgpu 19.1.0-2

I'd be happy to provide more information if that would be helpful.

If you want to deposit your testimony on kernel's bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208205

This seems to be the same: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207383

I compiled yesterday Linux 5.8-rc1 and the issue seems to be solved.
If some of you can test and confirm.

Nevermind, still hanging.

I seem to be affected by this as well, things were running fine for days but suddenly got a general protection fault while watching youtube. I'm technically running linux-zen but I doubt it's worth opening a separate issue.

After reading a bit here, my issue seems to be different, opened a new one here https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/67068

I have exactly the same problem, i can only use LTS and 5.6.x branches, the current 5.7 is hanging randomly :(

I think I have the same problem with the kernel 5.7.6-arch1-1, and xf86-video-amdgpu 19.1.0-2 (RX 480). It freezes randomly and the only way to get out of it is by rebooting, I can't open a new TTY or do anything at all, only listen to the system sounds. It has happened to me twice in the last two days, while an X server was running. I'm attaching my log in case it helps, too.

This on top 5.7.7 seems to help here.

@PhantomX that has been applied to linux 5.7.7.arch1-1 and linux-lts 5.4.50-1 as the fix for  FS#67131 

Got hit by this today again, very irregular to say the least (hadn't happened since my last comment)
5.7.8-zen2-1-zen / Vega 56

Seems like the folks over here have found the culprit, can you guys try reverting 3202fa62f, cbfc35a48 and 89b83f282?
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207383#c72

i hope it can be fixed, being tied to 5.4 whereas 5.8 LTS will pop and should have the same problem is a very big issue

We should have a 5.7.9 build reverting these 3 commits: 3202fa62f, cbfc35a48 and 89b83f28 until a fixed kernel is released.

With my switch from nVidia to AMD Navi 10 5600XT I noticed severe stability issues. With Windows 10 experiencing bsods and freezes with Linux.
I first thought of driver issues as the cause, but in fact the problem was caused by a BIOS setting.
I use a multiboot rEFInd configuration with Windows 10, Xubuntu and Arch with currently 5.7.9-arch1-1.
Since all the 3 boot options had the same instability issues I had to look for another reason than the assumed driver issue.
After changing the PCIe Speed from [Auto] to [Gen3] I have no problems anymore.(---> Advanced\PCH Configuration\PCI Express).
Maybe somehow this auto-switching is not working properly for gen4 (PCI Express 4.0) devices on older motherboards?

I was running the latest kernel until last week and I had this problem too, then I moved to LTS, now at version "Linux archlinux 5.4.53-1-lts" and it works well, for the last week.

My graphics card is a "ATI Baffin [Radeon RX 460/560D / Pro 450/455/460/555/555X/560/560X]" with a dual-monitor setup.

Not everytime, but I would say 3 out of 5 times I was gaming with CS:GO, it was freezing, with a complete stall. Had to press the reset button to start again.

I will wait for the 5.8 to try again with the latest kernel.

After apply https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/7/27/64 - this patch problem solved. Testing few hours - this patch working. Performance seems not be affected. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=290591.

Please apply this fix for new linux package

This patch has been applied to the git tree. I think it's going to be included in 5.8-rc8 onwards.

The patch has been included in 5.7.12.arch1-1 [1] currently in testing. Can you confirm this resolves the issue?

[1] https://git.archlinux.org/linux.git/commit/?h=v5.7.12-arch1&id=38116337d16e34b0282c047b3fb644adbb908bca

5.7.11.arch1 also has it.

It looks fixed to me, I don't get the bug anymore.
