Setup - I am using a custom-compiled Linux kernel 3.14.17 on Ubuntu
14.04. The kernel is patched with Xenomai using Ipipe
3.14.17-x84-4.patch. I have a Radeon HD 8570HD R7 240 graphics card in
this system.
I can confirm that the radeon driver is compiled and loaded, and by
running “sudo lshw -C Display”, I can verify that my graphics card is
using the Radeon driver.
Problem - Now, when I run the latency test in Xenomai, I obtain large
latencies - up to 40us. If I blacklist the radeon, drm, drm_kms_help,
ttm, i2c_algo_bit kernel modules, and run the latency test with gdm not
running, the latencies are under 10us.
In previous kernel versions, such as 3.8.13, I have never seen such big
differences in latency results between gdm running/not running.
Can you narrow down when the problem was introduced in the kernel,
ideally with git bisect?
Assuming DPM is enabled, have you tried disabling that with radeon.dpm=0
on the kernel command line?
Please attach the dmesg output pertaining to drm/radeon.
I'll start bisecting, but for now, the dmesg is attached. The dmesg
output is from the kernel booted with "radeon.dpm=0" and "intremap=off".
The latter command is because ipipe does not currently support interrupt
remapping.
