    radeonfb: fix accel engine hangs · 1a71e43a

    commit 969830b2 upstream
    
    Some chips appear to have the 2D engine hang during screen redraw,
    typically in a sequence of copyarea operations. This appear to be
    solved by adding a flush of the engine destination pixel cache
    and waiting for the engine to be idle before issuing the accel
    operation. The performance impact seems to be fairly small.
    
    Here is a trace on an RV370 (PCI device ID 0x5b64), it records the
    RBBM_STATUS register, then the source x/y, destination x/y, and
    width/height used for the copy:

    radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[8002611b] src[248:80] dst[248:70] wh[68:10]
    ----------------------------------------
    
    When things are going fine the copies complete before the next ROP is
    even issued, but all of a sudden the 2D unit becomes active (bit 17 in
    RBBM_STATUS) and the FIFO retry (bit 13) and FIFO pipeline busy (bit
    14) are set as well.  The FIFO begins to backup until it becomes full.
    
    What happens next is the radeon_fifo_wait() times out, and we access
    the chip illegally leading to a bus error which usually wedges the
    box.  None of this makes it to the console screen, of course :-)
    radeon_fifo_wait() should be modified to reset the accelerator when
    this timeout happens instead of programming the chip anyways.

    Ker:xnel panic - not syncing: Irrecoverable deferred error trap.
    ----------------------------------------
    
    Another quirk is that these copyarea calls will not happen until the
    first drivers/char/vt.c:redraw_screen() occurs.  This will only happen
    if you 1) VC switch or 2) run "consolechars" or 3) unblank the screen.
    
    This seems to happen because until a redraw_screen() the screen scrolling
    method used by fbcon is not finalized yet.  I've seen this with other fb
    drivers too.
    
    So if all you do is boot straight into X you will never see this bug on
    the relevant chips.
