Re: Discussion: the ati/radeon open source drivers & radeon repository

Re: Discussion: the ati/radeon open source drivers & radeon repository

I'm sorry for bumping again, I realised that I didn't had installed OpenCl package for Ati Card since it was in conflict with pxp package. Now I wonder, if OpenCL is not supported at all with pxp installation, or does it just seems like that since Discrete Gpu leaves the output to Integrated Gpu?
I tried to differentiate the output while either Dis Gpu was on or not and couldn't get a conclusion, actually it was better performing when Ati was off. So my former guess seemed unlikely. Anyone with a knowledge and eager to shed some light?

Edit: Fixing the poor grammar.

I mean you should try with oss drivers (through mesa 10.2 and llvm-3.5svn - mesa-git repo can help you)

I don't have such configuration (hybrid graphic), found this topic that could help you with: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=139413

I've asked on IRC radeon channel:

<lordheavy_> Does opencl works with hybrid systems (turks chipset) ?
<tstellar> lordheavy: Yes, but you need to enable rendernodes.

So you need also to add drm.rnodes=1 in your kernel's command line.

You are probably experencing this bug. On my system (RV620) kernel 3.14 fixed almost every issue with DPM, although reports from other people are mixed.

i have

    Mesa drivers for AMD/ATI Radeon

core/linux 3.14.2-1 (base) [kurulu]
    The Linux kernel and modules

thanx for quick answer
Is there a solution to this or the updates will solve this problem?
I want to use DPM
because perfected  performance
hopefully resolve

Sadly, it seems that no resolutive fix has still been written. As I said, the big DPM rewrite done in kernel 3.14 helped some lucky individuals like me but did not solve the issue in all its aspects. I used catalyst legacy from Vi0l0's repository and tried DPM at each new kernel release until I hit a working one. IMHO if you need powersave then using Catalyst and giving a shot to DPM from time to time is the only thing to do, being aware that there's no estimate about when this bug will be fixed (nor if it will ever be fixed at all...)

Re: Discussion: the ati/radeon open source drivers & radeon repository

Lordheavy,

latest lib32-llvm-libs-svn & llvm-libs-svn have a wrong symlink.

lib32-llvm-libs-svn 208793
/usr/lib32/libLLVM-3.5.0svn.so points to /build/lib32-llvm-svn/pkg/lib32-llvm-svn/usr/lib32/libLLVM-3.5svn.so

llvm-libs-svn 208789
/usr/lib/libLLVM-3.5.0svn.so points to /build/llvm-svn/pkg/llvm-svn/usr/lib/libLLVM-3.5svn.so

This results in a failure for mesa configure statement to find the shared libraries for llvm.

Thanks, would you mind sharing how you you solved it ?
(the mesa-git/sources/llvm-svn and lib32-llvm-svn folder still have the older version)

Krejzi solved it like this in his aur llvm-svn package, package_llvm-libs-svn function  :

    mv "${srcdir}"/libLLVM-*.so "${pkgdir}/usr/lib/"

    for _shlib in "${pkgdir}"/usr/lib/*.so
    do
      test -L "${_shlib}" && ln -sf $(basename $(readlink ${_shlib})) ${_shlib}
    done

It does work that way, but it looks like a tricky workaround to solve an upstream problem.
(this issue looks to me like it's a bug in llvm configure/make , or if it's not  a bug it should be controllable by a configure flag).

With drivers from testing or mesa-git repo ? You should probably test mesa-git drivers with are relying on llvm-3.5svn which could give better performances.
