            Bug ID: 98905
           Summary: XFX Radeon RX 480 XXX OC GPU hangs in games with
                    "auto" power_dpm_force_performance_level
           Product: DRI
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: DRM/AMDgpu
          Assignee: dri-devel at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: haagch at frickel.club

I've had this across several applications and several kernel/mesa/llvm versions
and I'm not sure I get everything here right, but here it goes.

Most easily I can reproduce the GPU hang on SOMA when starting a new game - it
will hang while the intro video plays or shortly after, in the game - other and
very demanding games work without hangs.

It would hang like this:

[Di Nov 29 19:46:21 2016] [drm:amdgpu_job_timedout [amdgpu]] *ERROR* ring gfx
timeout, last signaled seq=3374996, last emitted seq=3374998
[Di Nov 29 19:46:21 2016] [drm] IP block:5 is hang!

Just now is the first time it actually recovered, usually I need to hard reset
the PC.

Now this GPU is factory overclocked a little bit:
/sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_dpm_sclk
0: 300Mhz
1: 608Mhz
2: 910Mhz
3: 1077Mhz
4: 1145Mhz
5: 1191Mhz
6: 1236Mhz
7: 1288Mhz *

I am reasonably confident that when I set a power level with this command:

echo manual > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level
echo 7 > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_dpm_sclk

the GPU will not hang while the power level is fixed.
Therefore I think that the GPU hang is related to switching between power
levels.
It's possible that this problem is specific to this factory overclocked model.
