Public bug reported:
After upgrading linux-firmware from 1.190.5 to 1.197 (as part of the
upgrade from Ubuntu 20.10 to 21.04), I started experiencing frequent and
severe GPU instability. When this happens, I see this error in dmesg:
[20061.061069] amdgpu 0000:03:00.0: amdgpu: [gfxhub0] retry page fault
(src_id:0 ring:0 vmid:1 pasid:32769, for process Xorg pid 1141 thread Xorg:cs0
pid 1236)

[20061.061189] amdgpu 0000:03:00.0: amdgpu: RW: 0x0
I'll attach a couple of full dmesgs that I collected.
Many of the times when this happens, the screen and keyboard freeze
irreversibly (I tried waiting for more than 30 minutes, but it doesn't
help). I can still log in via ssh though. When there's no freeze, I can
continue using the computer normally, but the laptop fans keep running
are always running and the battery depletes fast. There's probably
something on a permanent loop either in the kernel or in the GPU.
This bug happens several times a day, rendering the machine so unstable
as to be almost unusable. It is a severe regression and I'm aghast that
it passed AMD's Quality Assurance.
After downgrading back to linux-firmware 1.190.5, the machine is back to
the previous, mostly-reliable state. Which is to say, this bug is gone,
I'm just left with the other amdgpu suspend bug I've learned to live
with since I bought this computer.
Please revert the amdgpu firmware in this package as soon as possible.
This is unbearable.
