[SOLVED] War Thunder crashing when opening game, shows Vulkan error

A few seconds after the game opens and begins loading assets I get this error with some references from a call stack, which seems mostly useless other than providing that it's some issue it's having with Vulkan. I haven't seen any other references to this problem, past or present. Not entirely sure where to go from here, other than looking through journalctl, so if requested I will provide that.

Re: [SOLVED] War Thunder crashing when opening game, shows Vulkan error

I think this right here is cause for concern, as it was in the middle of the journalctl output where the game crashed. Looks like a pointer trying to grab protected memory.

My best guess would be either something weird with a Mesa package, or something in the game itself. There haven't been any reports on the War Thunder Reddit yet from what I've seen, so I would assume that it's an issue with my own configuration rather than with the game.

Update: There is one other reported case on the War Thunder forums.

GCVM_L2_PROTECTION

Not War Thunder specific, see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=284076 .

It appears to be a low level driver issue with some amdgpu cards. sofar all reports were about cards from the rx 6000 series.
What card do you have ?

I've got a 6600XT, so that would make sense

I'm gonna reboot with the mentioned kernel params in grub, I'll update following the test.

Re: [SOLVED] War Thunder crashing when opening game, shows Vulkan error

Now it crashes my entire X11 session when I attempt to open the game. Some added context is that it was already causing problems by freezing plasmashell most of the time, but this was an easily remedied problem so I ignored it. I believe this is the important part of the journalctl:

I'm removing the retry and recovery related lines from the kernel params, and I'll try just using the featuremask.

Re: [SOLVED] War Thunder crashing when opening game, shows Vulkan error

This is the journalctl logs from a crash where the game crashed all of my graphics processes, and I'm pretty sure OS as well.
Not entirely where to go from here. This has happened multiple times, with about a 50/50 chance of it just crashing/freezing KDE, or crashing/freezing my entire computer.

After using the command vulkaninfo I got this output

ERROR: [Loader Message] Code 0 : loader_scanned_icd_add: Could not get 'vkCreateInstance' via 'vk_icdGetInstanceProcAddr' for ICD libGLX_nvidia.so.0

Running theory now is that it's attempting to call an nvidia driver, which should not happen as I'm on a full AMD system. I think I have some nvidia stuff installed for build tools, but I will see if uninstalling them fixes this issue.

Re: [SOLVED] War Thunder crashing when opening game, shows Vulkan error

Please use [code][/code] tags, not "quote" tags. Edit your posts in this regard.
Also don't bump. Edit your previous post to add information if nobody has replied yet.

Do you currently apply amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffff7fff ("systool -vm amdgpu")?

Re: [SOLVED] War Thunder crashing when opening game, shows Vulkan error

Fixed the styling errors, will keep that in mind in the future.

This isn't super important, but note that I switched it back to a featuremask of 0xffffffff

Also, I did some more testing and found that the error does not occur when using the RadV vulkan driver over the Pro and AMDVLK drivers. More info here if anyone else shares the same, or a similar issue in the future.

Marking as solved for now, but if some driver devs or something want more info, I can update with some more info later.
