Subject: [REGRESSION] drm/vmwgfx shows green Xv instead of actual video
(bisected I think)
Hello,
I have discovered a problem in vmwgfx that caused Xv playback to break
between v6.3 and v6.4-rc1. In v6.3, inside of an Ubuntu 24.04 VMware VM
with 3D acceleration disabled, I can run the following GStreamer command
("sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-tools" if you don't already have it):
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc !
video/x-raw,format=YV12,width=640,height=480 ! xvimagesink
And it works fine, showing a test pattern.
In v6.4-rc1 and all the way up to a build I just made today of Linus's
latest master branch and also including Zack's latest patchset [1]:
Linux doug-Ubuntu-MATE-2404 6.10.0-rc7+ #55 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Jul
11 12:46:06 PDT 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
...if I run the same command, the GStreamer window shows up containing
solid green rather than the test pattern.
I believe I have bisected the problem to commit:
39985eea5a6d ("drm/vmwgfx: Abstract placement selection")
However, the bisect process was complicated because two earlier commits
temporarily broke vmwgfx so I had to undo them during bisection, which
also required some conflict resolution:
180253782038 ("drm/ttm: stop allocating dummy resources during BO
creation") and
f87c1f0b7b79 ("drm/ttm: prevent moving of pinned BOs")
Note that if you have gstreamer1.0-vaapi installed, you should
temporarily remove it first before testing because there is a separate
Xorg bug that causes Xorg to crash when you run the above command if
gstreamer1.0-vaapi is installed.
I'm happy to do any further testing as needed. I've reproduced this
problem across several different machines and distros. A fully-updated
Arch Linux is also affected.
As a side note, that same gst-launch-1.0 command is also currently
broken with 3D acceleration enabled, but that's a separate issue in mesa
that I've submitted a patch for [2].
Thanks,
Doug
