             Bug #: 43437
           Summary: [NV4B] Crash when starting loads of 3D applications
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86 (IA32)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/nouveau
        AssignedTo: nouveau at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: r.spliet at student.tudelft.nl
         QAContact: xorg-team at lists.x.org


When starting a lot of 3D application on my NV4B (Geforce 7600GS AGP), a kernel
panic occurs bringing the entire system to a halt. In my case this was
Gnome-shell with several applications open, and glxgears running 8 or 9 times
concurrently. A rather synthetic environment I must admit, but having a
null-pointer dereference may never occur and/or bring the system down. :)

Reproducible:
1. Log in to your desktop (in my case gnome shell)
2. Start GLXGears
3. Start GLXGears
4. Start GLXGears
5. Start GLXGears
6. Start GLXGears
7. Start GLXGears
8. Start GLXGears
9. Start GLXGears
10. Start GLXGears

Expected behaviour:
Loads of gears on my screen running really really slow. Or applications being
killed because the GPU cannot service them

Actual behaviour:
Kernel BUG.

Software:
Fedora 16
kernel-3.1.2-1.fc16.i686
xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-0.0.16-27.20110720gitb806e3f.fc16.i686
