On my Dell Laptop ,after upgrading to 5.6.4 kernel, discrete card is running all the time, with Radeon drivers it's ok, it happens only with AMDGPU.
this are making laptop working more hot than normal.. usually i use PRIME for activate the discrete card for some applications... but now.. it's on all the time.
this is a bug in the kernel with AMDGPU driver or something? anyone are experiencing this?

Your card appears to be GCN 1 and may very well be a special design for dell.
Try linux-lts kernel or an older 5.6.x kernel to see if changes in amdgpu kernel driver caused this.
Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

Hi, running LTS 5.4.32-1 it seems normal as it should, current kernel really broke AMDGPU driver on my dell..

Then I suggest you keep both linux and linux-lts installed and setup your bootloader to be able to switch between them.

AMDGPU was doing very well here, until it gets fixed, I think I'll stay with Radeon., These are stable too btw
thanks man.

I can confirm with the same issue. I'm currently using a 5.6.3 kernel.

Is the issue present under 5.7-rc7? Is there an upstream bug report?
Edit:
If the issue was introduced between 5.6.3 and 5.6.4 has a bisection to locate the cause been attempted?
https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel … eLog-5.6.4 not seeing any amdgpu changes from 5.6.3

Well, since then I am now running the stable 5.6.15 .. the problem with AMDGPU drivers still persists as I reported before.
I have not tested with mainline... only with stable and LTS .. and as I said earlier, LTS is working fine with AMDGPU.

You can report your issue to upstream using https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues see also https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ … -bugs.html

thanks... i reported.

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1157 if this is your report the issue was introduced between 5.4 and 5.6 not between 5.6.3 and 5.6.4?

I noticed this happening in 5.6.4. but not immediately after the update, I really don't know when EXACTLY amdgpu started to behave like that, because I hadn't noticed it before.
then I ran LTS and it was ok .. so I assume it is between 5.4 and 5.6 ..
