When you create bugs against amdgpu driver, use the latest kernel and mesa code: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux/?h=drm-next-4.11-wip https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers Problems might be fixed in the latest code. Yaketty version of Oipaf ppa works with Debian testing Xfce that is the best distribution. Manjaro is much more difficult to use. Are you sure it is the gpu fan? Disable cpufreq, cpu temp and fan handling the kernel config and use the Bios to control these. My computer with X4 845 and Gigabyte RX460 2GB with 2 fans is quiet. Is there some kind of live-image? I just can not switch to another distro, since I need to work with this computer.
> Are you sure it is the gpu fan?
Yep. I can just write "0" to /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/pwm1 and its quiet.
This btw wasnt the case since the beginning.There was a Kernel and/or linux-firmware release that brought this bug in. I just cant figure out wich Version it was.
Linux 4.4.47 is quiet. So it has to be somewhere in between 4.5 - 4.8. Wasnt there a fan/hwmon related work in 4.6? or .7? 4.10RC7 has no fix for this. Mesa/Xorg seems also not related here. Also maybe not related, but according to sapphire, on OS start, the fan will rotate for a short time (short like 0.5s) at a higher speed, to remove some dust. Maybe the linux-hwmon taked this dust-removal speed as default value and keeps it for the whole runtime? In Windows it's that way: a short high rotation speed and then slow down to almost?) 0.

No live images and for example today adg5f 4.11-wip kernel received 20 or so patches. To test with Debian testing Xfce create a 15GB test partition with the Gparted livecd. Burn Debian netinstaller to a cdrw or usb memory: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/stretch_di_alpha7/amd64/iso-cd/ Choose Debian Desktop and Xfce in the installer. Use the Whisker menu plugin along with the Weather plugin and remove the original applications menu. You can configure Xfce freely, so make it suitable for your liking. Install Amd firmware: https://packages.debian.org/stretch/firmware-amd-graphics With Synaptic install Gdebi. With Gdebi you can install downloaded .deb packages easily. Give the root password when asked.

Copy the .config file to the linux directory. Connect all your devices and run the command: make localmodconfig. You can use the command make defconfig too for creating initial .config file. Use the command: make xconfig and check that you have enabled: Reroute Broken IRQ, Virtualization KVM and 300Hz CPU timer, I also disabled Swap, Kernel Debug, CPU Freq scaling , Cpu handling in Acpi, Used Bios to control CPU and devices. In the drivers->graphics->amdgpu enable cik support for a gcn 1.1 gpu and si support for a gcn 1.0 gpu. With Synaptic, install kernel-package and fakeroot packages. Create debian kernel package: export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4 fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image Install the kernel package with Gdebi. To make a custom kernel to boot, add a line to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules: unix And run: sudo update-initramfs Reboot. (In reply to Fabian from comment #3) > Linux 4.4.47 is quiet.

Wasnt > there a fan/hwmon related work in 4.6? or .7? kernel 4.4 did not have power management support enabled for your card so the clocks and voltages were always left at the lowest levels.

Please stop, thanks. hello, i have the same bug. On my sapphire r9 380 itx, the fan seem to work at 100% from the loading of the kernel (no problem in bios and in grub stage). T he bug seem to occur since the 4.9 series. T he archlinux usb key i use to downgrade my kernel have a 4.9.11 and i have to remove my r9 380 in order to boot or my system hang. The bug occur in the last kernel from the archlinux (4.10.4) too. Maybe it's specific to this model. I have a sapphire r7 370 in this computer with no fan problem and last week a sapphire 7870 ghz edition with no problem. (In reply to winches from comment #9) > hello, i have the same bug.

I can try. I've seen how to do on the wiki. I will test the kernel 4.9.1 and the 4.11rc1 tomorrow. It may be longto do all the bisect, it took nearly 40-50 min to compile. I start to bisect. My problem is, between the linux-git-4.8.r15051.g133d970e0dad and the linux-git-4.9rc5.r369.g697ed8d03909 my system doesn't found my harddrive with his UUID and refuse to boot. It's a bug found in the RC release. Since the fan bug occur after the loading of the drive, i don't know if the fan bug is present or not... I continue to bisect but do you know to pass the UUID not found. Something to do in the compile config maybe. > I continue to bisect but do you know to pass the UUID not found.
You could try to find the exact commit which fixed the harddrive detection (at worst by bisecting it). If the fix is sufficiently simple you can apply at for every bisection step. This makes bisection a bit harder but if the fix is easy this should be doable even for non-developers.
First of all, you can just run "git bisect skip" for any commits where you can't test for the problem you're bisecting, for any reason. With luck, this will allow git bisect to identify the regressing commit anyway. Even if not, it'll provide a range of candidate commits, which can be further narrowed down using Felix's technique. Thank you. "git bisect skip" could be useful next time. To avoid the problem i use "git bisect log" to-a-file and "git bisect replay" from-a-file. So the result : 646cccb55b26b95b981ea9a63512260d0c21cac3 is the first bad commit commit 646cccb55b26b95b981ea9a63512260d0c21cac3 Author: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com> Date: Wed Oct 26 16:41:39 2016 -0400 drm/amdgpu: add support for new smc firmware on tonga Newer tonga parts require new smc firmware.

The sapphire r9 380 itx has only one fan and is shorter than any other r9 380. So their bios/firmware may be specific... I've check the code, so if i understand; to solve the problem on my computer i have to rename tonga_smc.bin to tonga_k_smc.bin If it works, it's a firmware problem. |
Created attachment 254121 [details] dmesg output The fan of my "Sapphire R9 380 ITX" is really loud on Linux. cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/pwm1 reports that it runs all the time on "94" while sensors | grep amdgpu -A 3 tells me that its at amdgpu-pci-0100 Adapter: PCI adapter temp1: +31.0°C (crit = +0.0°C, hyst = +0.0°C) When I now set /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/pwm1 to 0, the tmp still stays at 31-34°C while "idle". So thats not a thing. Before linux loads (UEFI-routines, grub) and on Windows the fan stays offline unless there is enough load that it is needed. On linux the fan starts to rotate on boot and keeps rotating all the time (on load it rotates faster). at 41°C pwm1 goes up to 104 find /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/ -maxdepth 1 -type f -print -execdir cat '{}' \; -exec echo \; /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/pwm1_min 0 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/pwm1_max 255 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/pwm1 94 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/pwm1_enable 1 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/temp1_crit 0 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/uevent /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/temp1_crit_hyst 0 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/temp1_input 32000 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/name amdgpu
