Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

Do you now get a more usable journal when rebooting w/ sysrq+REISUB or have the nvme errors returned?

Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

Sorry, I got sick.

As for current status, I got reminded of why I had pci=nomsi as a kernel parameter, and it was because the journal would be constantly filled with

[   49.788566] pcieport 0000:00:1c.7: AER: Correctable error message received from 0000:00:1c.7
[   49.788571] pcieport 0000:00:1c.7: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Correctable, type=Physical Layer, (Receiver ID)
[   49.788572] pcieport 0000:00:1c.7:   device [8086:a33f] error status/mask=00000001/00002000
[   49.788574] pcieport 0000:00:1c.7:    [ 0] RxErr                  (First)

As for SysRq+REISUB, here's the latest log output:

Possibly of note, the terminal I had for dmesg output also closed, and no messages were entered before it did

Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

Journal says "pci=nommconf" not "pci=nomsi" but otherwise no data is preserved at the tail - but the kernel parameters don't suggest you're disabling APST either
Throw "nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0 pcie_port_pm=off iommu=soft" at it and see whether you can still reproduce the crash, but I almost suspect the nvme gets starved by the overall power demand of the game?

Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

"pci=nomsi" is what I had before. I removed it after it was pointed out and I couldn't remember why. Trying to fix the issue that arose from removing it, forum post recommended adding "pci=nommconf" instead, so I figured I'd try it.

I had APST disabled, but it didn't fix the issue, then after I reseated the SSD and it worked consistently well for a short while (which I still can't explain), I tested if it still worked with them gone, which it did, so I left them.

Re-added them, and the issue still persists.

Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

Can you move the nvme to a different PCI slot?
Forgot to attach the dedicated 6/8-pin power supply to the GPU?
Do you get the same w/ the non-open 580xx nvidia drivers?

Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

I moved the nvme to a different PCI slot after the issue recurred shortly after the first reseating.

The GPU is plugged in properly, including the 6+2 pin connector.

I installed all of the 580xx drivers. CS2 no longer launches with

[  296.640829] cs2[8323]: segfault at 2b3 ip 00007ff109450dac sp 00007fffc38681a0 error 4 in librendersystemvulkan.so[64fdac,7ff109272000+3e2000] likely on CPU 5 (core 5, socket 0)
[  296.640836] Code: ff ff eb 0d 0f b6 85 a6 f2 ff ff 88 85 a7 f2 ff ff 48 8d 3d a6 8e e1 ff 31 f6 e8 cf c3 e2 ff 84 c0 74 16 48 8b 85 90 f2 ff ff <41> f6 84 06 b3 02 00 00 20 0f 84 10 12 00 00 e8 00 c4 e2 ff be 51

and Lies of P completely fills up my system memory + swap at ~20% through the in-game shader compilation step.

Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

So it's not the nvidia installation and not vulkan, https://github.com/valvesoftware/csgo-o … ssues/4259 has a bunch of AMD GPUs…
Sure that didn't happen w/ the nvidia-open driver?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Steam/ … _emulation


Did you otherwise try the 580xx drivers and did you encounter any full system crashes (or were the CS2/Lies of P the original problem, ie the symptoms just changed)?

Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

The comment from stackallocator https://github.com/ValveSoftware/csgo-o … 3626546820 does describe most of the primary symptoms 1:1, but yeah, all AMD.
The earlier comment by Duszkek makes me think it's a different root cause causing the same type of issue, because the issue happens on both the flatpak and the regular package.

Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

Apologies, I installed the 580xx drivers (and still do), and there are still full system crashes. CS2 crashes the same as it always has, and Lies of P doesn't have the memory issue anymore. Genuinely no idea what was the issue or what fixed it in the end, but seems that was unrelated.

Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

tbc, you installed https://aur.archlinux.org/packages?O=0&K=580xx (not the 580xx nvidia-open drivers) - did you also disable the https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA … P_firmware ?

(The theory being that CPU and GPU load starves the nvme which then drops out)

Re: Somewhat Intermittent System Crashing When Running Certain Games

I did install the 580xx drivers from the AUR, not the 580xx open drivers, yes.

I had not set NVreg_EnableGpuFirmware=0 before, but have done so now, and there has been no change.

Last best idea would be to substitute the nvme for some SATA drive to see whether it's the critical bit piece of HW or whether the game (induced load) can take down a SATA drive as well hmm
