Strange hang HPET in current
In my box (amd64, current 20.oct.10 ) some time hang by 5-10 minutes with random subsystem, may hang disk access,network,very often tty. In most no output in log, sometimes with messages calcru: ..

[patch] via_dma.c
Hi While trying to make googleearth work on a Via Epia LN board with openchrome and GL we noticed that the X server crashed after about 30 seconds of use. I got a flood of the following messages. Oct 26 12:13:24 test kernel: error: [drm:pid97391:via_hook_segment] *ERROR* Paused at incorrect address. 0xe1fcf300, 0xe1fc4900 0x Oct 26 12:13:24 test kernel: error: [drm:pid97391:via_hook_segment] *ERROR* Paused at incorrect address. 0xe1fd0300, 0xe1fc4900 0x Oct 26 12:13:24 test kernel: error: [drm:pid97391:via_cmdbuf_size] *ERROR* VIA_CMDBUF_LAG timed out. Some research showed that occasionally the GPU pauses and when the pipe is restarted, commands are reordered and the next command after the paused command is dropped. I located a patch which I hand applied because every chunk failed. It has fixed the stability issue and gpu pipe restarting issue. I still have a problem with googleearth only displaying its image in part of the window. It looks like the plane size is correct but it gets the offset wrong so there is a blank on the right side the size of the left menu pane and a blank at the bottom the size of the window bar and menu bar at the top of the window. Do you have any ideas how to fix this?

Ah, so mav@ implemented a tickless-scheduler? That is nice. Not exactly. I've only made system to delay empty ticks when idle and execute them later on wakeup in a batch. Scheduler work is still wanted. But when USB driver is enabled, the load average is considerablly high (0.6 to 1.0) if sysctl oid kern.eventtimer.periodic is set to 0. Then kern.eventtimer.periodic is set to 1, the load average goes to 0 quickly as before, but almost never transit to C3. Is this behavior expected, or something wrong? The USB controller often keeps the bus mastering bit set. This keeps the system out of C3. The way to fix this is to implement global suspend. Put a device in suspend mode and then turn off power to the USB port it is on. Then the USB controller will stop polling the bus. As I understand, if respective USB port is not used, USB stack should put it into power_save mode not poll so often to deny entering C3 state. I noticed one of usb host controller device shares HPET irq. When I implement interrupt filter in uhci driver, the load average goes to 0 as before. % vmstat -i interrupt total rate irq1: atkbd0 398 2 irq9: acpi0 408 2 irq12: psm03 0 irq19: ehci1 37 0 irq20: hpet0 uhci0 35970230 irq22: ehci0 2 0 irq256: em04 0 irq257: ahci0 1692 10 Total 38514246 === I haven't noticed that issue and it is surely not expected for me. I will try to reproduce it. Most likely you should be able to avoid interrupt sharing using some additional HPET options, described at hpet(4). This seems silly. The whole point of APIC is to avoid clustering on a single interrupt but the BIOS put the timer on the USB controller irq? HPET timer is not a regular ISA or PCI device. It allows several different interrupt configurations. In most cases I remember, BIOS setups interrupts 0 and 8, like for legacy_route mode. But this mode is not really suitable as default in our case ATM due to conflict with atrtc and attimer drivers. -- Alexander Motin ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
