I am generally following the kernel development, so I've already been through a
few 4.9-rcs and the 4.9 release by now. I am currently testing the v4.10-rcs.
None of these kernel versions have changed the "stuck on render ring" issue.
It occures with a frequency of once or twice a week, usually as a result of
resizing an X client like an xterm.
The only noticable effect of upgrading the kernel was that the driver error
handling got significantly worse with v4.9-rcX and later. It does not
successfully reset the GPU anymore. Instead it tries again and again every
20th second.

Will look into this. FYI, I am usually following Debian testing/sid wrt
userspace.

OK
<span class="quote">> Let me know if you need more information on how to do any of this.</span >
Hints are appreciated, but I guess I will figure it out by looking at how
Debian package these things.</pre>
