The system now freezes and crashes on a hourly basis. It's likely something triggering a GPU crash, as it only seems to happen the moment certain desktop effects occur or given panels pop up; Even bringing up the taskbar (from auto-hide) or clicking the arrow which expands the system tray can cause it. The only way to recover the system without restarting is to immediately hit "control + alt + backspace" to kill x11 once noticing the freeze, before it has time to become permanent or the glitches I mentioned take place. Can anyone else confirm this please, and let us know whether a solution is being worked on? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I've had compositing disabled for several hours (alt + shift + F12) yet the exact same crash occurred just now: All windows and buttons froze in place while only the mouse cursor could be moved, the monitor then turned itself on and off a few times, and I found myself back to the login manager. Upon killing X11 and logging back in, I was presented with a window asking to check my compositor settings... indicating that KDE might have detected compositing as a source, although it's been entirely turned off so that couldn't be true. Could a maintainer or developer familiar with this part of the system please be dispatched to the issue? I have reported it two weeks ago, and so far there has been no official response here. While I understand the developers are busy with other concerns, this is a major problem due to which I can't keep my system from being shot down at random daily intervals. Considering that such a crash may occur anytime, including during a package update or while other processes are handling data, it leaves my system at risk of data corruption! Additionally, could I please request that updates for x11 and the AMD video driver are prioritized? http://tumbleweed.boombatower.com indicates that Devel has the following versions pending: xorg-x11-server 1.19.3 (currently 1.19.2), xf86-video-ati 7.9.0 (currently 7.8.0), Mesa 17.0.2 (currently 17.0.1). Yesterday's Factory snapshot appears to have ignored these packages. As Kernel updates don't seem to affect the issue, I'm hoping a new version of one of these components might include a solution.

I feel that at this point, I should express my disappointment regarding the lack of attention this report has received over the course of a month. I marked it as high priority (which I believe it is), posted about this on the forum, and wrote about it to the Factory mailing list (where it was completely ignored).

Sorry for my silence but I am already working on upgrading llvm to 4.0 which I hope will fix this issue, if not then we can ask for a revert on the llvm mailing list for the problematic commit. Randomly reverting commits on llvm can have bad consequences. Sadly the Open Build Service seems to be slow these days and it takes a lot of back and forth to see if my commits work or not.

I believe glx is the old render architecture, whereas egl is the new renderer which uses OpenGL and is visibly a lot faster. Considering that desktop activity was always the cause of the freezes in some form, I have a strong suspicion that this might have something to do with the GPU freezes as well! It's a very likely candidate because egl involves experimental OpenGL rendering, and since it's not enabled by default that would also explain why few other people are able to reproduce the GPU lockups. I have just now switched back to glx and therefore haven't had the time to confirm this, but I'm willing to bet it just might make the problem go away... I will immediately post an update if and when I'm proven wrong obviously. If anyone else wants to test this theory and help in reproducing the system freeze, consider switching to egl rendering. Obviously this means your machine might start freezing as well, so only do this if there's no risk of data loss or major annoyance. The switch is done by opening ~/.config/kwinrc in a text editor and changing: GLPlatformInterface=egl to GLPlatformInterface=glx Note that if you're using an Aurorae theme, you might experience the bug I mentioned above, which involves KWin no longer rendering window decorations.

Thanks Ismail. As an enthusiastic non-developer Linux user, I wonder whether there is any way to apply the patch myself without waiting for a build? Is there any guide, or just roughly the direction, that you may kindly show me? :)

A 'zypper dup' earlier today upgraded my machine to Kernel 4.10.10 and reinstalled Mesa 17.0.3. I understand this means that llvm 4.0.0 should be in effect on both of these components, and if llvm was at fault the issue should now disappear. I've had more freezes during the last few days, and if somehow they continue even after this we'll seriously need to dig further.

The latest one happens even after upgrading to the 4.11.0 Kernel, meaning the error was ported to it as well. Why are the developers so incapable this time? This has been happening for nearly 3 darn months! The problem has been fixed twice, and each time it's returned after over 2 weeks. Can someone please explain what the heck is going on here?

I don't even see how it could survive through this many package updates by chance alone, it is ridiculous.

To literally be unable to keep a system running without the image suddenly freezing and the monitor shutting down every single day, for over a quarter of an year... that goes far beyond that limit. I'm sorry for the outburst, but at this stage I think something needed to be said. I did not expect something like this to get dragged so far, and that I'd be unable to keep my system running for months.

I understand your frustration but basically logs show that you are getting random GPU lockups, searching Google for "radeon r7 370 lockup" shows a lot of results even from Windows. So at this point I believe this might be a hardware problem.

I considered a hardware problem, but that seems unlikely for many reasons: The video card is still very new (about an year now) and a solid Gigabyte model... I've had another Radeon / Gigabyte card before it, which lasted me for nearly a decade. This issue is also triggered only by the KDE desktop, when certain desktop effects play or I select some windows (even with effects turned off)... I play high-end games on my machine, yet even they don't trigger this exact crash! The behavior of the crash also closely indicates a software problem... hardware issues usually cause a total freeze (Kernel panic), whereas this only freezes the desktop (without mouse pointer) then causes the monitor to shut down.

I can't see if in this bug report but did you try to set kwin to use XRender instead of OpenGL? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I wonder if other such settings, such as vsync (tearing prevention) could make a difference... there are many combinations to try, and I'm not sure which also affect the system when compositing is off. When the system doesn't completely freeze, the behavior of the problem can be very strange at times; Last night after the desktop froze, I quickly hit Control + Alt + Backspace several times to kill X11... the system went into a console, which started flashing continuously together with the HDD led. I couldn't do anything on my keyboard and mouse... but once I pressed the power button it stopped and the machine shut itself down quickly and cleanly, meaning it still received the power off signal and managed to recover from that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1028575 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1028575#c42 --- Comment #42 from Mircea Kitsune <sonichedgehog_hyperblast00@yahoo.com> --- After another two weeks of absence, the issue was apparently reimplemented on top of Kernel 4.11.3 + Mesa 17.1.1 + Plasma 5.10.0, likely sometime during the last few days. The behavior is once again identical, with alt-tab switching or desktop effects causing everything but the mouse pointer to freeze then after 10 seconds the monitor shuts down. Other unrelated GPU crashes (such as those caused by some games) behave by the classic model, where the entire system simple freezes in place at once... that's a very different result from this freeze, and likely confirms this is a different type of crash. At this point I have almost no doubt this is an attack that's being deliberately programmed, and manually reimplemented on top of new drivers once it gets fixed. The cycle seems to be that a kernel or driver update resolves the issue, then the creators of the crash require about two weeks to patch it and reimplement the exact same functionality. This is the 4th time the story repeats. I tried steering away from this possibility until I was sure, as I didn't want it triggering any unnecessary arguments... if this is an attack then investigating it as such might help in finding its source more quickly. There's simply no way something this precise could happen by itself for nearly half an year, always coming back with the exact same effects after a period of absence... all despite radical changes to nearly every driver and system component, which would have no doubt altered the behavior of the initial problem in some form. Therefore I hope everyone can see why I'm now going with this theory and greatly considering the option of malicious intent. I have no idea how the virus (?) could be updated on my computer, as it's likely not through the package update system directly. However I suspect it's using a constant series of vulnerabilities in one or more system components, which should be fixed by the developers if they exist. I would appreciate any ideas on both how the malicious code might be inserted into the computer, as well as finding the vulnerability within radeon / Mesa / X11 / etc that it exploits.

Everyone following up on the report, please see this comment! Recently I realized that a useful test would be to jump into a different run level once I notice the crash, in order to see how the system behaves there. A few minutes ago another freeze took place, so I instantly hit Control + Alt + F1 to go to a console. What I noticed was pretty remarkable and sheds light on a few aspects: I could keep typing in the console for nearly 10 seconds, but after that the exact same behavior still took place (monitor turned itself on and off two times then the image froze). This time however I was able to toggle the NumLock led a minute after the crash, while also seeing the HDD led still working; That means this is not (always) a total system freeze such as a Kernel panic... instead it appears to be the image output corrupting and staying that way, freezing only specific components with it (I was still unable to issue a blind reboot command for instance). To put everything into an approximate timeline, this is what happened: 00 seconds in: The crash occurs. 02 seconds in: I notice and instantly hit Control + Alt + F1. 05 seconds in: I'm taken to a console where everything works fine: I see the blinking cursor, can write my login and password, etc. 12 seconds in: Suddenly the monitor turns off and back on several times, then the image remains frozen in place. This time however, the screen did not remain turned off or black. Instead it stayed stuck in a state showing corrupt lines and rectangles of random colors.

The previous one was incomplete as it was subject to console line limitations, cutting off the moment when the crash actually occurs. I left the command running in a different runlevel; This time the crash didn't shut down the monitor after switching to it (Control + Alt + F1) so I was able to cleanly shut down dmesg then issue a normal reboot. I waited there for about 5 minutes before doing so, to give dmesg time to record as much information as possible. The crash appears to start at the following lines: [112873.658950] radeon 0000:03:00.0: ring 4 stalled for more than 10024msec [112873.658953] radeon 0000:03:00.0: GPU lockup (current fence id 0x000000000072f6bd last fence id 0x000000000072f6c1 on ring 4) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1028575 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1028575#c59 --- Comment #59 from Mircea Kitsune <sonichedgehog_hyperblast00@yahoo.com> --- Further more, I suspect I now know what the culprit component is. It's very likely that the problem lies within Mesa itself, and was introduced in the switch between 13.0 and 17.0. This was confirmed by the bug report I linked previously, which I strongly believe is related to the issue I'm experiencing here: Another person there was able to verify that their crash happens with Mesa 17 but not 13. Looking at the dates, I realize that I started experiencing this problem precisely when openSUSE Tumbleweed upgraded from Mesa 13.0 to 17.0: Mesa 17 landed in early March 2017, it was a few days later that the issues began, which I then reported the following week (08 March 2017). See my comment in the other bug for more info on this: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101325#c22 I also seem to confirm that the issue only affects RadeonSI cards but not R600: My laptop has a Mobility Radeon HD 5470 card (R600) whereas my desktop has a Radeon R7 370 card (RadeonSI). I've been away for two weeks and have been using my laptop exclusively during this time, which has the exact same OS and configuration as my desktop. I was able to preform every task I do on my desktop from my laptop, including the triggers I described above... I have never experienced this freeze with the laptop. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
