linux-6.12.1.arch1-1 introduces graphics artifacts

petauristini · 2024-11-25 13:48:13

After upgrading to linux-6.12.1.arch1-1 I started getting weird artifacts (sets of pixels flashing weird colors). It's especially noticeable when scrolling or changing desktops, but it also occurs randomly. Downgrading to linux-6.11.9-arch1-1 fixes the issue.

This isn't helpful, at least tell us what graphics card you have

apx · 2024-11-25 15:05:38

same here. fine on 6.11.9

Have you found any similar reports on https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues? Have you compared the dmesg output between the two kernels? Are you bisecting the issue?

Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.8.0
Qt Version: 6.8.0
Kernel Version: 6.12.1-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland

Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon Graphics

(AMD ATI Radeon 680M)

I have not found anything similar on https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues.
I'm not really sure what I to look for in the dmesg output.
I'm also not really sure on how to bisect.

apx · 2024-11-25 17:42:07

seems similar enough to confirm something is fkt up a bit on 6.12 with amd and mesa https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3787

Would you be willing to test prebuilt kernel images (these are signed with my packager key)? First thing to test would be the following:

sudo pacman -U https://pkgbuild.com/\~gromit/linux-bisection-kernels/linux-mainline-v6.11.r7272.g509d2cd-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

running it right now. no artifacts nor glitches so far.

gromit · 2024-11-25 18:57:03

Do you have a clear reproducer? Otherwise please just run it for a while and report back whether the bug is present or not

No artifacts for me either with this one

apx · 2024-11-25 19:36:44

yes, just had to tap the 3-finger-up gesture a few times to relatively reliable reproduce the glitches. also sometimes while scrolling in browser. basically when the screen has to change.

artifacts are gone and not reproducable anymore under < 6.12

Please try the following:

sudo pacman -U https://pkgbuild.com/\~gromit/linux-bisection-kernels/linux-mainline-v6.11.r10950.g356a031-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

No artifacts for me, I would also be able to reproduce it quite reliably by changing desktops etc.

same

Please try the following:

sudo pacman -U https://pkgbuild.com/\~gromit/linux-bisection-kernels/linux-mainline-v6.12.rc2.r284.g974099e-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

(just for perspective, we have around 12 steps left)

No worries. This one has no artifacts either.

artifacts are back

gromit · 2024-11-25 21:42:43

Could you both please retest so we (maybe) get a consensus if the commit is good or bad?

its consistently glitchy like Linux-6.12.1.arch1-1 for me. Tested half a hour for now and always got the same result.

I noticed I always booted into the wrong kernel, so I tried all of them again. Now I already get the artifacts with the first one

TheKnightsky · 2024-11-26 08:46:45

Just here to say that this issue is not specific to GNOME, I have the same issue on Wayland KDE. I am new to linux in general and I don't know how to help either.

Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.8.0
Qt Version: 6.8.0
Kernel Version: 6.12.1-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 24 × AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX with Radeon Graphics
Memory: 14.8 GB of RAM
Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon 610M
System Version: 1.0

I forgot to mention about the dedicated graphics card: Nvidia RTX 4050 mobile.
And this issue is not replicated during fullscreen video playback (eg Youtube on Firefox or VLC) or during boot, otherwise this issue persists everywhere in the OS.

V1del · 2024-11-26 09:10:10

I'd say it's safe to say the dedicated card has no play here... symptom wise it sounds like a resurface of the PSR issues, in which case booting with the "amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x10" might help as well. But since gromit is in the middle of a bisect anyone affected should definitely test and follow along that path.

FWIW no issues on a desktop with a dedicated 6900XT
