            Bug ID: 105425
           Summary: 3D & games produce periodic GPU crashes (Radeon R7
                    370)
           Product: Mesa
           Version: git
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: medium
         Component: Mesa core
          Assignee: mesa-dev at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: sonichedgehog_hyperblast00 at yahoo.com

I am experiencing periodical system freezes which to my knowledge are caused by
a GPU lockup. Those freezes are always triggered by 3D rendering, and are
seemingly produced by a multitude of game engines. The crash is highly
probabilistic, with various programs having a chance of triggering it anywhere
between one minute and one hour. The image instantly freezes in place while
audio stops working and every form of input dies (including the NumLock /
CapsLock keyboard leds), the machine is entirely bricked until powered off and
back on.

The problem is oddly similar to an issue I experienced an year ago, which had
the exact same behavior and was also caused by 3D. That issue was fixed as
every system component has received major updates since, however it seems to
have come back sometime during the last few months. I will link its report here
as it may still contain useful information:
