https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58556 --- Comment #26 from Pierre Moreau pierre.mor...@free.fr --- Hi Joanand, Shouldn't the patch for driver/gpu/drm/nouveau/core/subdev/bar/nv50.c rather be + line 233: int ret, i; + line 351: for(i = 0; i 8; i++) + line 352: nv_wr32(priv, 0x001900 + (i * 4), 0x); By the way, on top of which commit/kernel are you applying the patch? Yeah, if you try with acceleration you end up with bug 27501 (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27501). EFIFB should not be the problem: it is removed by nouveau at some point, to be replaced by nouveaufb, which seems to be not rightly configured (or the accesses to it), bringing screen corruption. I have a 5,3 (iirc) MacBook Pro (mid 2009) 15.6, with the same graphic cards, resolution is also 1440x900.

Hi Pierre, I have tried the diff patch (3 changed lines) on Kernel 3.13.5-gentoo, and did a quick test on nVidia 9600m GT: The screen gets scrambled as soon as nouveau is loaded. At the startup, EFIFB is used and works with full screen resolution, but the colors are incorrect. EFI is setup to use 9600m as default. I am still using nouveau without acceleration. I will be testing the patched Kernel on nVidia 9400m, by modifying EFI to use 9400m as default. Could you do a diff on your patched kernel and unpatched, so that we could find other differences?

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58556 --- Comment #24 from Pierre Moreau pierre.mor...@free.fr --- Hi Joanand, My HEAD before applying the patch was commit 34d5950 (http://cgit.freedesktop.org/nouveau/linux-2.6/commit/?h=drm-nouveau-nextid=34d595081812da62b5357579267c4ab5eae64ac1). The HEAD after the patch is just: 34d5950 + e18833a, nothing more. So I'm running with both cards enabled. I tried Ilias' patch (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27501#c27) to test each card alone, and I got: * NVAC only: corrupted screen (without e18833a) + acceleration not working; * NV96 only: no corrupted screen (even without e18833a) + acceleration working.

I found out that nouveau_abi16_ioctl_channel_alloc was also calling nouveau_channel_new, but with other arguments for vram and gart, and it is called whether or not acceleration is enabled.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58556 --- Comment #20 from Pierre Moreau pierre.mor...@free.fr --- Here are some news about my small progresses. I found out why commit 20abd1634a6e2eedb84ca977adea56b8aa06cc3e introduced a bug: it would init the psw-vblank field only if acceleration is enabled even if it is used in both cases; calling nv50_software_create even with acceleration solves the problem. I reverted a few more commits, however I'm stuck on commit ebb945a94bba2ce8dff7b0942ff2b3f2a52a0a69 Author: Ben Skeggs bske...@redhat.com Date: Thu, 19 Jul 2012 22:17:34 + It seems like the init issue was fixed, but the screen stays scrambled. After some testing, it seems some of the work done by nouveau_channel_new (which is only called when acceleration is enabled) is needed, and therefore also n84_fence_create, but I couldn't find which parts. When enabling nv84_fence_create and nouveau_channel_new for the NVAC card (boot hangs if enabling it for the NV96 card), nv50_disp_intr spams lots of nouveau E[PFB][:03:00:0] trapped write at 0x546000 on channel 0xfee0 [unknown] BAR/PFIFO_WRITE/FB reason: PAGE_NOT_PRESENT but it seems harmless, apart from getting a really big dmesg and, some times, hanging on boot. Booting with 'nouveau.accel=0 nouveau.modeset=0 3' results in a clean console mode, and running startx manually after boot will also give a clean GUI. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Nouveau mailing list Nouveau@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau

Hi Joanand
(In reply to comment #0)
Resolution for kernels 3.4.9: I made use of gpupwr to disable the discrete
adapter and then loaded nouveau (without any parameters). The system was
programmed to use 9400m as it starts. This worked quite fine over long
time.
Worked with our without acceleration ?
Temporary resolution for 3.7.1: Use MacOSX to change the default adapter to
the one which is not desired. Reboot, load nouveau with noaccel=1 (now
screen gets scrambled), switch to the other device (in my case echo DIGD
/sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch). Voila you have a readable screen.
Did you had the chance to narrow down what caused the change (3.4.9 vs 3.7.1)
? It may be due to nouveau, vgaswitcheroo and/or other kernel driver
(In reply to comment #6)
(In reply to comment #5)
Great find Matyas
If you're interested in cutting short the sequence you can forcepost the
card, thus it should have you the suspend/resume trick. Use
nouveau.config=NvForcePost=1
Curious if the above will give you acceleration or only a working
output/monitor
(ie. try it with and without noaccel=1)

Hi,
On my MBP, if I do not use noaccel=1, then the whole system crashes.
I have tried NvForcePost=1 with noaccel, the result was a switched off
screen, but system seems to boot.
With accel, screen switches off and crashes.
Is there any config which would activate accel for 9400 but no accel for
9600? This would be very helpful for me.
Thanks.
There has been a brief discussion what is the best way to handle this (passing
nouveau params to specific card, disabling certain card etc.) although
implementation may be far off ;(
Meanwhile add a hack for your card by checking the PCI and returning early
rather than initialising the card - not sure which location is better
nouveau_drm_probe or nouveau_drm_load. Keep in mind to keep is symmetric (ie.
handle the case in nouveau_drm_remove/nouveau_drm_unload)
Your code will look something similar to
if ((pdev-bus == xx)
(pdev-dev == xx)
(pdev-func == xx)) {
return 0; // you can also try return -E*
}
Cheers

It's never worked with this system (9600M GT/9400M), whether in-tree or out. My setup is slightly different, as I'm booting with grub2, not the EFI stub, but the behavior is exactly the same: a scrambled, non-updating screen after the handover from efifb. I've never tried using vgaswitcheroo by typing blindly, though. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Nouveau mailing list Nouveau@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
