AMDGPU RAS REBOOT BEHAVIOR FOR UNRECOVERABLE ERRORS(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– AMDGPU RAS Reboot Behavior for Unrecoverable Errors(9) πŸ’–

okay bestie, this one's straight from the Kernel API Manual and it's giving "GPU error endgame" energy 😭✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Normally, when there's an uncorrectable error, the driver will reset the GPU to recover β€” that's the usual recovery slay πŸ’….

But in the event of a unrecoverable error, the driver provides an interface to reboot the system automatically in that event. Yep, it just reboots. No cap 🫢.

The following file in debugfs provides that interface:

/sys/kernel/debug/dri/[0/1/2...]/ras/auto_reboot

Usage:

echo true > .../ras/auto_reboot
