radeon 5870m support #25

Closed adrenochrome25 closed 8 years ago

adrenochrome25 commented 8 years ago

Hello,

I use a radeon 5870m with catalyst 15.201 on Ubuntu 12.04LTS(3.13.0-67-generic), but radeontop report only "0.00%" values for each entry. i noticed several things :

any advice on what's going wrong or how to debug ?

thanks in advance, regards,

Oh, regarding the name, Juniper seems correct: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_AMD_graphics_processing_units

Mobility 5870 is a Juniper, desktop 5870 is Cypress.

Did Github just delete my older comment? Anyway, here it is.

The kernel warning will only affect the VRAM line, not the other ones. Likewise, the device name doesn't really matter, it is cosmetic.

Is this a laptop with only one GPU, or several?

When using the proprietary driver, radeontop must use the /dev/mem codepath. At the end of init_pci(), before the return, add printf("use ioctl %u\n", use_ioctl);

and let me know the result. The /dev/mem option was disabled in more recent Ubuntu kernels, but since you're running older Ubuntu, it should still work.

it's a MSI GX740, it's the only/main GPU

printf("use ioctl %u\n", use_ioctl); use ioctl 1

> ls -l /dev/mem

OK, it's trying to use the open-drivers-in-recent-kernels path for some reason. Please try current master, I added an override option (sudo radeontop -m).

The proprietary driver is fairly low priority, so automatically detecting it won't be done by me, I couldn't even test it.

working perfectly with the '-m' switch, thanks :)
