[Grouping] mesa-git issues reporting about nyx HOT 28 OPEN

Steam doesn't work with the default mesa-git.method.
The app launches, I can see the gamepad reacting to Steam, but the UI simply doesn't appear at all (the only exception is the "Updating/Extracting" window at the beginning). The tray bar is visible, and the menu shows the options it should, but clicking on any of them does nothing. In other words, Steam is unusable.

Steam's logs say nothing useful, but journalctl does:

kernel: traps: steamwebhelper[68634] general protection fault ip:7f1ffdd06582 sp:7ffd38f56e50 error:0 in libglapi.so.0.0.0[7f1ffdcf9000+e000]

plus a coredump.
This is printed many times while Steam is open.

Tested on Plasma, both X11 and Wayland.

Resetting Steam doesn't fix the issue.

None of this happens with chaotic.mesa-git.method = "replaceRuntimeDependencies";.

@rkunsc

For me everything works fine now.
Thank you :)

from nyx.

okie then, I'll handle this after work today

from nyx.

@rkunschke and @SuperSamus, please let me know if the latest deploy fixes it for you.

from nyx.

Since I don't use any DM it would need some time removing my autologin hacks to test it with a real working GDM. So instead I checked the GDM source, and it doesn't seem to test for GLES or use libglapi directly. Nixpkgs doesn't seem to mess with the two envvars we require.

😅 yeah, logs in this case would be great. I think for gdm you can get them through journalctl.

from nyx.

I've updated the original post with logs. I hope the form is okay.
My PC with a AMDGPU is behaving the same.

from nyx.

gnome-session-c: gnome-session-check-accelerated: GLES Helper exited with code 512

This executable runs fine for me in my user session. I imagine gbm/systemd is cleaning our envvars before starting this executable.

Just for testing once, can you build with { chaotic.mesa-git.method = "replaceRuntimeDependencies"; } added to your configuration? (you will need to add --impure to nixos-rebuild command)

This worked. Gdm found both session and hardware accelleration is working.

Ok, now remove that one, and instead try this one:

{ systemd.services.display-manager.serviceConfig.PassEnvironment = "GBM_BACKENDS_PATH GBM_BACKEND LD_PRELOAD"; }

from nyx.

Ok, now remove that one, and instead try this one:

{ systemd.services.display-manager.serviceConfig.PassEnvironment = "GBM_BACKENDS_PATH GBM_BACKEND LD_PRELOAD"; }

that resulted in the same issue than before. I get only software rendering in a x11 session.

I pushed the branch https://github.com/chaotic-cx/nyx/tree/mesa-git-gdm-env

In my test I see that it adds what I need:

$ nix repl

nix-repl> lib = inputs.nixpkgs.lib
nix-repl> sys = lib.nixosSystem { modules = [ nixosModules.default { chaotic.mesa-git.enable = true; services.xserver.displayManager.gdm.enable = true; } ]; system = "x86_64-linux"; }

Can you test it?

Bump @rkunschke

from nyx.

Sorry for replying that late. Just to get that right: I changed the input in my flake.nix to that branch and just enabled mesa-git.enable; gdm.enable; and gnome.enable
was that what I am supposed to do?

I have the same problem as before with that. Gnome only in X11 with software rendering.

from nyx.

was that what I am supposed to do?

Exactly.

I have the same problem as before with that.

Ok, I'll think of another solution...

from nyx.

I get software rendering (or crashes) with anything OpenGL that uses either X11 or XWayland.
No issues if the software uses either Vulkan (including Zink) or Wayland.

This is by launching Plasma Wayland from SDDM. (Plasma X11 works with software rendering.)

1. Do these crashes stop when following the instructions from this comment?: #260 (comment)
2. Without the changes from (1), in a terminal within your graphical session, do you see our envvars set? (GBM_BACKENDS_PATH, GBM_BACKEND and libglapi in LD_PRELOAD)
3. Do those said apps have wrappers that could be messing with any of the envvars from (2)?

PS: If possible, please add some logs.

from nyx.

I've put a page in the Wiki for tracking compatibility: https://github.com/chaotic-cx/nyx/wiki/Mesa%E2%80%90Git-Compatibiltiy-Tracking (anyone should be able to edit it)

from nyx.

Do these crashes stop when following the instructions from this comment?

When doing this, it's... weird?
Like, Plasma X11 now uses hardware rendering. Many OpenGL applications that weren't working before, now work (e.g. osu! doesn't crash, glxinfo doesn't say llvmpipe). But some of them still don't (e.g. Wine without DXVK, but only in some games). And with Dolphin Emulator, firstly it didn't work (it freezes shortly after launching a game), then without me changing anything, it magically worked. So... is that expected?

Without the changes from (1), in a terminal within your graphical session, do you see our envvars set? (GBM_BACKENDS_PATH, GBM_BACKEND and libglapi in LD_PRELOAD)

Yes, except in Plasma Wayland, where LD_PRELOAD isn't set.
If I export LD_PRELOAD manually before launching an application, nothing changes (app is still extra slow or crashes, due to using llvmpipe).

Do those said apps have wrappers that could be messing with any of the envvars from (2)?

No wrapping done, I checked manually with cat /proc/pid/environ.

Logs after launching Plasma X11, with journalctl --this-boot: logs.txt

from nyx.

So... is that expected?

Actually, no. This method is supposed to work 100% even in edge-cases, since it replaces all mesa files impurely.

Hummm, just to be certain, what GPU do you have there?

from nyx.

The Wine one was a false positive, sorry.
Anyway, RX 6700 XT.

Tomorrow I'll work on workarounds for both GDM and Plasma. Thanks for the reports and logs.

EDIT: Monday, today was rushed!

But also note that { mesa-git + Wayland + Vulkan } is broken for everybody:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/9692

Monday EDIT1: I can reproduce Plasma X11 with a virgl-powered VM:

Mesa Stable:

Mesa Git:

from nyx.

With #292 I can no longer reproduce problems (llvmpipe instead of hw-driver) with neither GDM nor SDDM:

EDIT: This solution will only be deployed after #293 merges.

from nyx.

Plasma X11 is now completely fixed.
However, Plasma Wayland has the same problems. I noticed that LD_PRELOAD is still not set, but this time, if export it manually, then XWayland∧OpenGL applications will work as they should.
So... why is Plasma Wayland unsetting LD_PRELOAD?

EDIT: LD_PRELOAD is now set.

from nyx.

So... why is Plasma Wayland unsetting LD_PRELOAD?

My bad, I pushed the fix, and tested the 4 possibilities now: SDDM + Plasma { X11, Wayland } and GDM + Gnome { X11, Wayland }.

from nyx.

UPDATE: Current stuck due to: #403 (PRs are welcome)

EDIT: But still updating almost daily.

from nyx.

It seems to be extra broken for me now, both methods are not working.

EDIT2: Ok, the problem this time was sway_git, and not mesa_git.

from nyx.

@PedroHLC could you please include this PR as a patch? https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/26165

It's required for VAAPI in Chromium

from nyx.

could you please include this PR as a patch?

Sure, just push a PR adding two final.fetchpatch2 to this list:

It's better to have two of them pointing to the commit's diff URL (like url = "https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/commit/eff9f33d49db7e7562ed5b93551dcf21b78b916a.patch") than one pointing to the MR's diff because this last one might change when new commits are added.
