Hello Marek, I applied your patches 0001 to 0005 (taken from [1] commit 471ee25) to 6.12.90 (BTW I never used the nouveau.config=NvMSI=0 kernel parameter).
System boots well and Xorg is running fine until now (I don't use wayland). There are still some graphic glitches when closing/opening windows (on KDE6, compositor enabled), but system seems stable (more than without your patches). I tried to make it crash like in [3] but couldn't reproduce it yet. With mesa 25.0.7, I don't have any nouveau error outputted by dmesg. With mesa 26.0.8 however I have multiple errors (see attachments). Would it be possible to add the tag that would permit your patches to enter also the previous stable (longterm) versions of the kernel? IIRC it's by adding something like "Cc: All applicable <[email protected]>" to the commit description. [2] states: If you are fixing a bug, think about whether the fix should go into the next stable update. If so, [email protected] should get a copy of the patch. Also add a “Cc: [email protected]” to the tags within the patch itself; that will cause the stable team to get a notification when your fix goes into the mainline. Thanks for your work !! Hopefully I can use the iMac9,1 without fearing a kernel crash because of the graphic driver. BTW, it seems your Macmini3,1 is a "early 2009" device as written here [4], and note "late 2009".
