Bug Description
== SRU Justification ==
The bug reporter states that after update to Kernel 4.13-43 the intel
graphics seem to really lag - especially noticeable in apps which are
using vsync, which, at least on his system, locks to 40fps unlike the
previous kernel.
See https:/
This regression was introduced by upstream commit dc911f5bd8aa. A
revert of this commit fixes this bug. Upstream has already reverted
this commit in drm-tip tree and cc'd it to upstream stable. However,
the revert has not landed in mainline or stable yet, so it is being sent
as a SAUCE patch.
The revert is also needed in Bionic. However, the Bionic revert is
slightly differant, so it will be SRU'd separately.
== Fix ==
UBUNTU: SAUCE: Revert "drm/i915/edp: Allow alternate fixed mode for eDP if available."
== Regression Potential ==
Low. This revert is to fix a current regression.
== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug reporter.
The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
After update to Kernel 4.13-43 the intel graphics seem to really lag - especially noticeable in apps which are using vsync, which, at least on my system, locks to 40fps unlike the previous kernel I have installed (4.13-41) which locks at a steady 60fps.
See https:/
In short
4.13-41 doesn't have the problem
4.13-43 has the laggy problem
