Wayland lag/stuttering since kernel 6.11.2

I believe this may be related to https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3796. You could try reverting the bisected commit there or changing the kernel command line.

Holy moly, this made a night and day difference on my system, thanks so much for the tip!

My AMD Framework 13 (Fedora 41 w/ Sway Spin, 6.12.x) is now usable again :sunglasses:

On Fedora 41 Plasma spin the issue goes away if I boot into kernel 6.11.4. Mouse is buttery smooth.

If I use newer kernels I get issues. Latest available is 6.12.6, but I don’t know how far back the issue goes.

I’m on AMD using Wayland. My symptoms are that on my external monitor, mouse movement is super janky. I suspect keyboard input is janky on both the external and built-in display, but it’s harder to confirm.

If I play a video, the mouse moves properly.

Seems possibly related to running Chromium applications — I didn’t test rigorously, but it seemed like symptoms reduced when I didn’t have any Chromium apps running.

Still all recent versions of 6.11.11, 6.12.4 and 6.13rc2 exhibit this issue for me. Disabling adaptive sync in the settings didn’t help in 6.11 and 6.12, but it does seem to be working in 6.13rc2, so I don’t get any stutter now.

Having this issue with 6.11/6.12. The amd driver team needs to get their shit together, I’ve been having constant graphical issues more or less since I first got a fw16.

Hi guys! Been following this thread for a couple of days now. I have the same problem.

Here are my specs :

  • Framework 13 AMD
  • Fedora 41
  • On Wayland
  • Last working kernel is 6.11.4

Notice the problem since 6.12.8. Tried 6.12.9 today with much hope, does not fix it for me. Should we address this to AMD directly?

I’m also following this as I’ve been experiencing this problem for a few weeks now.

Seems like it’s already reported upstream though: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3647

Workaround right now is to add the following kernel parameter: amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x10
