Update: I can now confirm, at least in my case, that the freezes DO occur using the parameters above, and also with all of them (shown below), while doing another test round on Pillars of Eternity. amdgpu.dc=1 amdgpu.vm_update_mode=0 amdgpu.dpm=-1 amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff amdgpu.vm_fault_stop=2 amdgpu.vm_debug=1 amdgpu.gpu_recovery=0 I was continuously writing dmesg to a file but yet again I didn't get any messages/warnings/errors.
