I found a bug in the nouveau kernel module. It looks like a cut and paste error on the definitions of some module parameters in nouveau_drv.c. The bug exhibits when displaying module parameter information with the modinfo utility. Here's a patch: diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_drv.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_drv.c index da3b93b..874adf5 100644 ---

It can help to remove any ambiguity about which options were passed to Nouveau, especially in case the user had some options set in /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf that he forgot about, as they won't appear in a dmesg.

For the purposes of the module parameters, specifies the permissions of the corresponding files in sysfs in predefined S_I* form rather than in octal notation. Withal it makes the source code more consistent. Moreover, because all parameters are readable to everyone, it is more user-friendly. $ grep S_IRUGO include/linux/stat.h #define S_IRUGO (S_IRUSR|S_IRGRP|S_IROTH) $ grep

Currently, we take down the sgdma engine without evicting all buffers from VRAM. The TTM device release will try to evict anything in VRAM to GART memory, but this will fail since sgdma has already been taken down. This causes an infinite loop in kernel mode on module unload. It usually doesn't happen because there aren't any buffer on close. However, if the GPU is locked up, this

This makes nouveau recognise and report more kinds of PGRAPH errors, as well as prevent GPU lockups resulting from some of them. Lots of guesswork was involved and some part of this is probably incorrect. Some potential-lockuop situations are handled by just resetting a whole PGRAPH subunit, which doesn't sound like a "proper" solution, but seems to work just fine... for now.

I find that the developers often just specified the numeric value when calling a macro which is defined with a parameter for access permission. As we know, these numeric value for access permission have had the corresponding macro, and that using macro can improve the robustness and readability of the code, thus, I suggest replacing the numeric parameter with the macro.

Several nvidia-based systems don't support backlight control via the standard ACPI control mechanisms. Instead, it's necessary for the driver to modify the backlight control registers directly. This patch adds support for determining whether the registers appear to be in use, and if so registers a kernel backlight device to control them. The backlight can then be controlled via

This adds basic support for driving sensor chips off the nvidia i2c buses, along with basic support for reading the internal GPU sensor on supported chipsets. It's heavily cribbed off nvclock. Having scanned a large number of bioses, I'm pretty convinced that the appropriate i2c bus is always number 2 in the list on <g80 - I'm not sure about later cards yet. There's still a lot

The nva3 copy engine exhibits random memory corruption in at least one case, the GeForce 320M (nv50, 0xaf) in the MacBookAir3,1.

Hi Ben, Dave, Since 3.5-rc0, I have been experiencing occasional screen corruption on my MacBookAir3,1, using a GeForce 320M (nv50, 0xaf). The X driver version is xf86-video-nouvea-1.0.1-1 (arch). I do not know what the root problem is, but I have been able to isolate the symptoms to the usage of nva3_copy.c. The patch below is the least intrusive way I could find which kills the symptoms.
