Linux Receiving Fix For AMD Radeon Polaris GPUs Producing Lots Of Log Spam


For those using an AMD Radeon RX 500 'Polaris' graphics card on Linux and routinely suspend/resume your system, going into the Linux 6.16 kernel and then to be back-ported to the stable series is a fix where the AMDGPU driver could end up producing a lot of spam in the kernel log.

Thie fix is for this 5 month old bug report over a lot of "log spam" after the system wakes from sleep. Other AMD Radeon RX 500 "Polaris" graphics card owners on Linux also reported similar problems too after waking/resuming the system that their kernel log would be flooded with countless messages about " scheduler comp_1.0.X is not ready, skipping." There is one line of code needed to reset the compute ring wptr on the GPU on resume to avoid a disconnect between the driver and firmware pointer.
