[Nouveau] Optimus switch corrupts memory on Lenovo T440p
Hello, On new Lenovo T440p laptops with new BIOSes (1.16 and further) there is a memory corruption when trying to disable, and then re-enable, nvidia GPU. There is a bugreport for bbswitch ( https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/bbswitch/issues/78), but this problem shows even when doing disable and re-enable with acpi_call, and nouveau has dynamic power management support too. I have been trying to investigate into this problem for some time, and have really no idea what can I try next. On Windows, this of course works, and I have setted up remote kernel/ACPI debugging on it, which showed that there is practically no difference in ACPI calls in Windows from nvidia driver. I've also discovered correlation of this bug with reserved high memory, which looks very strange by itself. You can read the whole bug history in this bug report. I'm posting this to this mailing list to have some help/ideas regarding this. Nikolay Amiantov. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
