[DragonFlyBSD - Bug #3198] (Resolved) OpenGL app crash with Radeon driver

[bugtracker-admin at leaf.dragonflybsd.org]

Issue #3198 has been updated by ftigeot.

Status changed from In Progress to Resolved

I sadly wasn't able to find the source of the crash among the differences we still have with Linux in the drm code.

It could well be an existing bug in the drm/ttm code of the Linux version we are using right now -- 4.7.10 .
There is at least one Redhat bug report which corroborates this theory: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1027831

I have disabled 3D acceleration on Evergreen-class hardware for now in order to avoid these crashes (commit e4f26d7e5d0bf5eb2283f3953aa996332f16226b ).
Regular Xorg 2D and video usage is still fast, much faster than with a dumb framebuffer driver.

Bug #3198: OpenGL app crash with Radeon driver
http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/3198#change-13789

* Author: yellowrabbit2010
* Status: Resolved
* Priority: High
* Assignee: 
* Category: Driver
* Target version: 
----------------------------------------
The programs I work with, namely, FreeCAD, Kicad, MPV, Chromium crash with ``vm_fault: pager read error'' at different times, sometimes immediately after starting, sometimes after some manipulations.
I managed to repeat the situation on the configuration with minimal changes:
- I downloaded DragonFly-X86_64-LATEST.img.bz2 2019-07-16 03:56 285M
- installed it on 8G usb flash drive
- modify rc.conf and wpa_supplicant.conf in order to connect to WiFi
- pkg install Xorg mesa-demos
- added user rabbit
- startx 
- glxgears

Glxgears crushed immediately after start. Unfortunately, the test installation does not contain packages with debug information, so its core file is not very informative. But since the situation is always repeated, I built packages with debug information and made a screenshot of the gdb file with the downloaded core on the working machine (KERNCONF=X86_64_GENERIC).
I have to note that I use the core of the March version and it has no problems with graphics at all: there have been no failures for a long time with all the programs listed above. That is, it is unlikely that this is a video memory or swap file problem and so on.
= 5.5-DEVELOPMENT DragonFly v5.5.0.325.gf6792-DEVELOPMENT #25: Sun Mar 24 09:54:07 VLAT 2019 =

I made an image of the flash drive immediately after the failure, you can download it from here https://yellowrabbit.gitlab.io/pub/bugs/dfly-glxgears.img.xz . There are no passwords neither for the rabbit user nor for root.
