[RESPONDED] Blocky artifacts on AMD Framework laptop 13

Steven_Scheepers · January 28, 2024, 7:16pm

Hey, I’ve got the exact same issue. Framework 13 AMD, 64gb with arch and i3.

How would I downgrade the driver? Is it just a case of replacing that file with an older version then rebooting?

Mario_Limonciello · January 28, 2024, 7:38pm

Download this version

And replace it in your filesystem and rebuild the initrd and reboot.

bullza · January 28, 2024, 11:16pm

I faced this on 6.7.0 when I got my laptop last week but haven’t faced this after downgrading to linux-lts which is 6.6.x.

I also use GNOME on Wayland + Arch.

Mario_Limonciello · January 29, 2024, 12:08am

Would you mind bisecting it?

bullza · January 29, 2024, 12:25am

Sure, I will spend some time tomorrow on this and get back.

Screen corruption similar to the OP on kernel 6.7.0 (linux-6.7.arch3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst) : https://i.imgur.com/6nBuB0L.jpg

Firmware package: linux-firmware-20240115.9b6d0b08-1-any.pkg.tar.zst
DE: GNOME on Wayland
Distro: Arch

Now I have downgraded to linux-lts which is 6.6.13. Here I expect to experience white screen issues randomly throughout the day.

I will share a picture when I do. I was able to solve the white screen problem by using amdgpu.sg_display=0. I posted my experience here a week ago: [RESPONDED] FW13 AMD 7840U Arch Graphics Output Corruption - #2 by bullza

Hussain_Arif · January 29, 2024, 2:12pm

Is there any way we can fix this issue without disabling scatter/gather?

Mario_Limonciello · January 29, 2024, 2:44pm

There are two issues here - the blocky corruption and the white screen.

The blocky corruption seems to be either a Linux firmware regression or 6.7 regression (unclear which right now).

The white screen issue with scatter gather doesn’t have a root cause.

I can’t reproduce either of these myself.

bullza · January 29, 2024, 4:28pm

After ~3 hours of use, I now faced the white screen problem on linux-lts v6.6.13 : https://i.imgur.com/bFNGhoc.jpg

I have now added amdgpu.sg_display=0 back again and I expect things to be stable.

You might want to use an external monitor (via USB-C). I forgot to mention that I use an external monitor as well. Using a web browser + maximized window speeds up occurrence of the white screen problem. I have tried both Firefox (manually enabled VA-API in about:config) and Vivaldi (Chromium-based, default settings).

Mario_Limonciello · January 29, 2024, 4:39pm

Yeah I’ve tried multiple external monitors connected to a dock as well as VRAM stress workloads running on the system. I can’t reproduce it.

bullza · January 29, 2024, 4:43pm

Please let me know if there is something else I can do to help you.

I also read somewhere that using UMA_Game_Optimized in UEFI reduces the probability of this occurring. I have it disabled (i.e., I am using the default setting).

Mario_Limonciello · January 29, 2024, 5:04pm

For first issue (blocky artifacts) If you can please bisect the issue with the blocky artifacts down to a kernel commit that would be really helpful.
For second issue (white screen) I guess pay attention to specific sequence of events that causes it. When it happens, can you try to capture as much stateful information as you can over SSH from another machine? /sys/bus/pci/drivers/amdgpu/*/mem_info*, a scan from GC, and SDMA registers using UMR, and a kernel log? You can put these on a bug report on AMD’s Gitlab please. Right now I don’t know if it’s a mesa bug, a platform firmware bug, or a graphics bug. Until AMD can reproduce it it’s just guesses.

bullza · January 29, 2024, 5:33pm

I will start with 2 as it won’t interfere much with my work hours.

A bit off-topic, I only get the following message when I run: umr --logscan -O bits,follow,empty_log

Cannot open DRI name under debugfs: No such file or directory
ERROR: amdgpu.ko is loaded but /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/name is not found
[WARNING]: Unknown ASIC [amd15bf] should be added to pci.did to get proper name
sh: line 1: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/amdgpu/amdgpu_mm_wreg/enable: No such file or directory
sh: line 1: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/amdgpu/amdgpu_mm_rreg/enable: No such file or directory
[ERROR]: Could not enable mm tracers

I think I need to enable some debug flags or something.

Mario_Limonciello · January 29, 2024, 6:09pm

Sounds like debugfs isn’t enabled in your kernel.

Matt_Hartley · January 29, 2024, 7:41pm

Nothing to add here except to point out everything Mario indicated and requested would be helpful for troubleshooting.

Hussain_Arif · January 29, 2024, 9:18pm

This issue happens to me using an HDMI monitor as well

Hussain_Arif · January 29, 2024, 9:19pm

Running the UMR command above gives me the same output as @bullza …

bullza · January 29, 2024, 10:58pm

Here are fixes you can try:

umr -i 1 --logscan -O bits,follow,empty_log as the device is exposed as 1 under dri folder
amdgpu_mm_wreg and amgpu_mm_rreg are exposed as amdgpu_device_wreg and amdgpu_device_rreg. Need to fix paths within umr’s code and re-compile.

I haven’t tried these yet, but I will.

Hussain_Arif · January 29, 2024, 11:00pm

Thanks! I’ll run it tomorrow. I hope this gets fixed soon because it’s hindering my productivity

bullza · February 1, 2024, 10:24pm

@Mario_Limonciello

Please let me know if this is enough information. If it is, I will create a bug report on AMD’s Gitlab. I am on kernel 6.6.14 now and I had to wait the entire day to reproduce the white screen error under latest GNOME.

Output of ./umr -i 1 --print-sdma

SDMA 0  RLC 0
  RB BASE 0x45f000  RPTR 0xa9a5c0  WPTR 0xa9a5c0  RPTR_ADDR 0x4015e0  CNTL 0x841817

umr -i 1 --logscan -O bits,follow,empty_log does not print anything.
