Hi Damentz,
on a Debian 12 sid + kde/wayland installation (Dell T1600), after updating the kernel from version 6.6.13 to version 6.7.1, I notice periodic freezes of the graphical environment lasting 30-60 seconds, approximately every 10 seconds, in which the mouse and keyboard freeze.

However, it is possible to access via ssh, but I don't see any errors or warnings in journal and dmesg.

So I had to reinstall the previous version 6.6.13 which works correctly, without problems.

At the moment, in the absence of errors or other reports I cannot be more specific, but something must have happened during the version changeover.

Note that the problem occurs only when using wayland, while if I use X11 it works fine.

If you can verify.

Thanks,
Antonio

I did some tests, trying to recompile the 6.7.1 kernel from "kernel.org" and I got the following results:

- Kernel.org: keyboard OK; mouse freezes for 1-2 seconds (approximately every 5 seconds)

- Liquorix: keyboard and mouse blocked (for several seconds), they resume a few seconds then freeze again


Keyboard/mouse are with USB cable. Same problem with wireless keyboard/mouse with USB receiver.

I opened a terminal to examine the processes with top:

- during periods of blocking, I see the display freeze

- however the system reacts normally if I access via ssh


System information:
Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux

Please provide proper inxi output as per README: techpatterns.com/forums/about3030.html

Also, if NVD9 refers to the GPU below, you should be using Xorg: www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/nvidia-gf119s.g93. Only nvidia gpus that support the absolute latest drivers will work at all with Wayland.

I did the following tests, recompiling the indicated kernels:

- 6.7.0-rc4 ok
- 6.7.0-rc5 ok
- 6.7.0-rc6 ok
- 6.7.0-rc7 ok
- 6.7.0-rc8 ok
- 6.7.0 bug

so the problem lies in the transition from the rc8 version to the final version 6.7.0.

--

I have currently verified that by restoring the following files from the rc8 version:

- drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/include/nvkm/subdev/gsp.h
- drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_fence.c
- drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_fence.h
- drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/engine/disp/base.c
- drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/engine/disp/r535.c
- drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/engine/fifo/r535.c
- drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/gsp/r535.c

I get a working 6.7.1 kernel.

now it's about finding the right one, but it will take some time.

Wow, thanks for the quick work bisecting and discovering the commit. I'll get this revert into upstream Zen Kernel, next release of Liquorix should have it.

Looks like Dave Airlie already has a fix for this issue: lore.kernel.org/all/20240123072538.1290035-1-airlied@gmail.com/

I reapplied the reverted commit and added Dave's change on top. Will be in next Liquorix release.
