Kernel panic when running GPU SDK examples using L3.0.35_4.1.0 on i.MX6Q

mcyeung — Wed, 18 Sep 2013 08:57:02 GMT

When running GPU SDK examples (i.e. IMX6_GPU_SDK) using L3.0.35_4.1.0 on i.MX6Q, it often gives kernel panic. Here are some facts and observations:

The i.MX6 board is based on the SabreSD board with some modifications, and is connecting with a LCD panel (i.e. video=mxcfb0:dev=lcd,CLAA-WVGA,if=RGB24 in u-boot environment).
The GPU libraries libGAL*, libEGL* and libVIVNATE* being used are that from the ltib output in the same BSP release on Ubuntu rootfs. Similar results for X11 and fbdev versions.
GPU libraries from L3.0.35_4.1.0_DEMO_IMAGE_BSP as well as from L3.0.35_4.1.0_MM_CODECS (Ubuntu binary or compiled versions from source) have also been tried, but kernel panic still exists.
Lowering the maximum CPU frequencies or reducing the number of running CPU cores (e.g. set maxcpus=1) improves the situation to certain extent, but it still gives kernel panic eventually when some demanding GPU SDK examples are executed.
When the same set of GPU SDK examples are executed on SabreLite board using HDMI as video output, they work properly.

Here are the typical debug outputs for the kernel panic:

Hi Tony,

Did yo get the GPU libraries you used on ubuntu from Ltib package ?

Best Regards

Dan

GPU libraries from LTIB, L3.0.35_4.1.0_DEMO_IMAGE_BSP as well as from L3.0.35_4.1.0_MM_CODECS (Ubuntu binary or compiled versions from source) have also been tried, but kernel panic still exists.

I just got the GPU SDK package from FSL website and tested on the latest BSP release, also got from the FSL website, everything worked fine with no issues nor crashes.
