Description Paul Whalen 2021-03-09 16:03:32 UTC
Description of problem:

Attempting to boot F34 Workstation on a Jetson Nano, the system boots to the F34 wallpaper briefly before displaying the "Oops" screen with initial-setup on top (BZ#1924908) but no visible pointer. Once the mouse is moved:

Mar 09 10:53:11 nano gnome-shell[1158]: Failed to post KMS update: drmModeAtomicCommit: Invalid argument

Well, if we took the crash as a blocker, it seems like logically speaking this ought to be a blocker too. Sounds like GNOME is still not at all usable on a target platform, right?

Comment 3 Jonas Ådahl 2021-03-09 17:25:44 UTC
Could you try two things:

Run with 

MUTTER_DEBUG=kms

in the environment, and attach the whole log from gnome-shell.

Then add

MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0

to the environment again, and try again.

Comment 6 Paul Whalen 2021-03-09 18:32:01 UTC
After adding MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0, the pointer is visible on screen and the system is usable.

Comment 7 Jonas Ådahl 2021-03-09 18:36:47 UTC
Does adding

DRIVER=="tegra", SUBSYSTEM=="platform", TAG+="mutter-device-requires-kms-modifiers"

to

/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/61-mutter.rules

then removing

MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0

from the env, then rebooting, help?

> After adding MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0, the pointer is visible on screen and the system is usable.

At least a work around is available at our hands then, the issue is when using atomic mode setting.

The pointer was no longer visible with those changes.

There is quite a bit of graphical flashing, but its definitely a usable workaround.

Are you saying that with MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0 there is still graphical flashing? What kind of flashing is this?

Yes, even with MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0, windows still flash semitransparent when moved or opened.

That's probably a long outstanding bug on either tegradrms or nouveaus side. I have no good idea on how to fix it. And tagr proposed a solution which changes nouveaus UAPI. Still working on it, but super sure that no solution will be ready for fedora 34.

I wonder if tearing could be fixed by this serie on tegra:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-tegra/patch/20210302124445.29444-2-digetx@gmail.com/

This relies upon interconnect changes, so that's too much to backport for 5.11 and f34 GA, but probably doable for 5.12 if the serie is good for 5.13-rc1.
Using the grate-driver kernel on jetson-tk1 (armhfp), I'm not experiencing any tearing at all (so maybe others WIP/pending patches are also needed).

Comment 13 Adam Williamson 2021-03-09 22:40:33 UTC
so can we at least come up with a udev rules equivalent of the MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0 workaround today? This is the last thing blocking a Beta compose at present.

FEDORA-2021-7ff726a721 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 34. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-7ff726a721

Comment 16 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2021-03-10 08:37:12 UTC
I confirm that the update discard the "drmModeAtomicCommit: Invalid argument" message, but it also doesn't fix any issue for me (using jetson-tk1, so different device and arch).

I've filled two separate issues, that might or might not be related:

1/ Using fedora kernel, there is a nouveau page fault on armhfp
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1937129

2/ Using a patched kernel (linux-next + WIP tegra patches from grate):
It cannot use the GPU acceleration and fall back to nouveau.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1937236

I wonder if any on theses can be reproduced on nano or other jetson aarch64 boards...

ohh, nice pointing that out. This might indeed explain why it only happens on low bandwidth boards... will try that out on my jetson nano as well. Thanks!

Comment 18 Adam Williamson 2021-03-10 17:17:26 UTC
Nicolas: the update basically does the same thing as MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0 for all systems using the "tegra" driver. The idea was to get Jetson boards to the state described by Paul when using that parameter (usable with visible cursor). If it does that and doesn't make things any *worse than they already are* on other Tegra platforms, it's doing its job.

jetson-tk1 is 32-bit, right? If so, we don't block on anything desktop-y on it for F34, AIUI.
