If I understand, we have a fix, so lets move with that. We can always improve mir to be more robust, but the heart of this problem was that mir/unity-mir was not given the guarantee that it needs (the system on enough to start operations). -- You received this bug notification because you are a

From mir's perspective, i see start, stop, start, stop, ..., start, start being called on the compositor. The double start, start causes an error in the compositor. (specifically, an egl context is current in two threads, causing an error BAD_ACCESS in the second thread). powerd-cli listen just

I also did a mir-only test to make sure mir can perform a display on/off in quick succession in a loop (which it can), as well as on/display some frames/off in a loop (which it also can). So it doesn't look like the drivers are breaking on us, just something between mir/unity- mir/unity8/powerd is

mir needs to be robustified against the double on and double off calls. Even when I account for this though, the system will still run into problems. I still have reason to suspect that when the dbus message to unity mir to turn the display on is received, the system is still in the suspend

regardless of whether we throw or not on unblank, the problem at the root of this bug is that mir and powerd are not synced up about the power state of the system (clocks, suspend, fb available, etc). This problem sometimes manifests in failure in the blank/unblank request, sometimes a hang

this problem would only affect devices that use 'earlysuspend'. Other devices do not have a second thread messing with the display state tracking, only earlysuspend devices would spawn the thread that was causing problems. ** Changed in: mir Milestone: 0.1.3 = None -- You received this bug
