Description of the problem:
With the soon to be released distros graphical corruption occasionally appears 
on font characters - everywhere a corrupted character of that size is it will 
be corrupted the same way.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start computer.
2. Start a gnome-terminal .
3. Type
echo "import string; print string.printable" | python
4. Press Ctrl-"+" several times.
5. Press Ctrl-"-" several times.
6. Go to step 4.

Expected results:
Text to look normal as it is resized.

Actual results:
Sometimes characters will appear to have a line through them.

How reproducible is the problem?
Somewhat reproducible but only on an EeePC 900.

As I'm only seeing this issue on LiveCDs (my Ubuntu 10.04 setup with an
old xorg but a 2.6.38 kernel seems fine) testing fixes could be tricky
for the foreseeable future...

xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.12.0-1ubuntu5

Another data point - the problem doesn't seem to occur with Fedora 13:

xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.11.0-4.fc13.i686
kernel-2.6.33.3-85.fc13.i686

So it appears that the problem was inserted in the 2.12 release of the
Intel DRM module / 2.6.34-2.6.35 release of the kernel.

The problem appears to have been introduced in the following commit:

commit f05dd2f09cac422c423dae8f9b8e2be13df05a8f

    drm/i915: Don't bother with the BKL for GEM ioctls.
    
    We probably don't need it for most of the other driver ioctls as well,
    but we explicitly did locking when doing the GEM pieces.  On CPU-bound
    graphics tasks, the BKL was showing up as 1-2% of CPU time.
    
    Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <e...@anholt.net>

I've narrowed it down to two lines in drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_dma.c:

       DRM_IOCTL_DEF(DRM_I915_GEM_SET_TILING, i915_gem_set_tiling, 
DRM_UNLOCKED),
       DRM_IOCTL_DEF(DRM_I915_GEM_GET_TILING, i915_gem_get_tiling, 
DRM_UNLOCKED),

If the last parameter is 0 instead of DRM_UNLOCKED the problem goes away
even on the latest drm-intel-fixes branch.

seems that the 915GM only exhibits horizontal corruption (which by

Bug #35995 sounds pretty much identical this bug (horizontal lines, 915GM, 
driver is 2.14+) and has been marked a duplicate of bug #35557 .

If someone who sees the problem can find a way of bisecting the intel
driver versions between 2.11 and 2.12 we might at least be able to find
out exactly which change introduced the problem. Once it has been
narrowed down by a tester, the hope is that an expert can justify
looking at the problem because finding a solution will hopefully take
them less time than it would have done before...

Setting

Setting Tiling to false in xorg.conf does not resolve the problem.

OK I finally had time to test the SNA branch up at
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~ickle/xf86-video-intel/ . The only thing
changed from a Fedora 15 live CD was the intel_drv.so .

The good news
This didn't show the corruption on font resizing at the terminal.

The bad news
While just typing at the terminal the entire prompt would sometimes disappear. 
Sometimes only one pixel of row of letters could be seen. When doing 
printscreen to try and capture a screenshot everything would fix itself just 
before the screenshot was taken. After a bit the entire system would lock up 
and the hangcheck timer would elapse. VTs and plymouth continued to work 
though. All this behaviour happens fairly quick - within 5 minutes of starting 
X.

However copying the binary DDX compiled for Fedora 15 to an Ubuntu 11.04

happening when show all desktops (windows-s) was used (probably
unrelated to this bug though).

Note: the kernel patch alone is not enough to stop font corruption.

SNA rewrite has brought new issues (which should be in separate bug

unpleasant experience at present.

Before this bug is closed I guess it is worth checking: is it possible
for a patch to be generated for pre SNA xorg drivers/older kernels (as
found in Ubuntu 11.04/Fedora 15)? If not, users seeing the font problem
on said distros will have to use the DebugWait workaround until newer
distros (11.08/16) land...

Just to be thorough, I'll report that updating to server version
10.1.99.1 and Intel driver version 2.15.901 does not appear have any
effect at all on the problem.

However, according to other information on this ticket I'd expect to see
this problem on Fedora 14 (with xorg-x11-drv-
intel-2.12.0-6.fc14.1.x86_64 and kernel-2.6.35.13-92.fc14.x86_64) but
everything is completely fine there.  That F14 kernel does, however,
carry a few i915-related patches; I'm not able to tell if they have any
bearing on the issue.

Regardless, this looks like an annoyingly complex issue.

Jason:

The kernel patch alone does not fix the problem (see comment #31). I
needed an intel driver that was using the "new" SNA paths in addition to
the kernel patch for the problem to be solved. This is consistent with
what you are reporting because Fedora 15's intel driver is not using the
SNA path (the SNA path isn't on by default in the intel drivers). If you
can get hold of SNA enabled drivers for Fedora 15 let me know as I'd
like to test them too (at the moment I have to hand compile has issues
with older xorgs)...

I admit I am baffled by the fact that you do not see the problem on
Fedora 14 though. Perhaps you are using a different desktop in Fedora 15
to what you were using in 14?

Oh and does the workaround described in comment #19 make any difference
to your problem?

Unfortunately I am not entirely sure how to get an SNA-based DDX; I
assumed that the 2.15.901 driver would be such, but perhaps that needs
to be enabled at build time.

I can state that if this problem is present on F14, I haven't seen it
and no user has reported it.  I have 30+ identical desktops with this
hardware configuration.  It is certainly possible that some other
difference masks the problem in F14; there is plenty of updated software
and unfortunately you can't just go back to the old kernel and X on an
F15 machine to check.  Both logins are with the same account to a
generic KDE desktop and it's pretty trivial to make it happen on the F15
machine; many times it's even visible on the login screen.

I might be able to take an F14 machine and go forward with X and the
kernel to see if one breaks; I can try to allocate some time to try that
out next week.

As for the debugwait trick, I'll try that out today if I can find some
time.

OK, in my testing the DebugWait trick appears to work fine (with the
3.0.1 kernel and the 2.15.901 non-SNA driver, at least; I haven't time
to drop back to the stock F15 packages today).  I guess it's slower but
I don't really notice much difference.

I can try a SNA build next week; I expect that it will solve the
problems but I'm not sure if it's supposed to be ready for deployment
yet.
