[Linux-wayland] random freezes #15268

Open jmfergeau opened 1 year ago

jmfergeau commented 1 year ago

Description

Retroarch tends to randomly freeze the game completely, simply during gameplay.

Expected behavior

The game should never freeze.

Actual behavior

Retroarch freeze the game completely at random intervals. It unfreezes after a while or sometimes when losing and getting back focus. Nothing related left in the logs.

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Start Retroarch on Wayland environment
  2. Launch a game
  3. Play and wait for it to freeze
  4. Wait for it to unfreeze or possibly try to change program focus to unfreeze it

Bisect Results

Happens only on Wayland. On X11, the freezes never happen.

Noticed on the cores mesen and pcsx2. I don't know yet if it happens on other cores.

Version/Commit

Environment information

i30817 commented 1 year ago

I'm not a dev, but first thing to check is if you're using a built that is really using wayland, or one that is for x11 and using xwayland.

In the wayland desktop, open retroarch and put it in windowed mode, and run the program 'xeyes' (install it if you need to). If the eyes move when you hover the mouse cursor over a window (for instance, the xeyes window itself) the program is using xwayland (in a wayland desktop). So move the cursor over the retroarch window and see if the eyes move.

jmfergeau commented 1 year ago

All I know is that Retroarch behaves differently on wayland. When it loads itself or loads a game, the window displays retroarch icon for a second before it displays the game or the menu, moving the window's corner awkwardly to the center of the screen. This never happens on X11. Also, in the system info, the line about wayland support is on "yes". I'm on Arch and retroarch is installed using the main package repos.

@jmfergeau Will it possible to provide some log ?

Also can you try to make some test with latest commit ? It may or may not fix your issue but there are two commits since version 1.15.0 about Wayland.

git clone https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch.git
cd RetroArch
./configure --enable-wayland 
make -j$(nproc)

Thank you.

jmfergeau commented 1 year ago

I would gladly give logs if it was bringing any relevant logs because, as i said in the first post, "Nothing related left in the logs." I noticed retroarch can spit big loads of logs for anything but it's rare it says anything about errors.

I just tried with the latest commit as you suggested but the problem still occurs. And still no error repported ever. :/

gouchi commented 1 year ago

Thank you for the test.

At least if we have the log, we will have some information (resolution, gpu ...) and we can compare if somebody else makes some test also on Wayland.

april83c commented 1 year ago

same issue here with the flatpak (don't know where to find logs, ~/.var/app/org.libretro.RetroArch/config/retroarch/logs is empty)

gouchi commented 1 year ago

@april83c Please check the documentation about generating logs.

Thank you.

theguy159 commented 1 year ago

I think I'm experiencing the same issue.

When I disabled the "Pause Content When Not Active" option in the User Interface settings it seems to take longer for it to freeze but it still does. It unfreezes as soon as I move the mouse a bit.

xeyes does not move when I move the mouse over the RetroArch window.

muffinjets commented 9 months ago

I can corroborate this issue, mouse activity over the window will unfreeze, happens on every core I use, GBC-Gambette, bsnes-hd, Dolphin, Duckstation, and mupen. I can also confirm using xeyes that my install isn't using XWayland and this behavior never happens when using an X11 session.

FAYZER77 commented 8 months ago

I'm also experiencing this on a fresh build from git source. The difference for me is I can't get it to unfreeze once it happens. Got into the second loop of the attract mode of Super Mario RPG in BSNES Mercury for the lockup to happen on the last run I did.

Having a similar issue, though just getting in-game is difficult. Log in dropdown.

I made a test on Fedora 40 on Wayland using Gnome 46 on Mesa (Intel HD 4000) with Vulkan driver and I could not reproduce this issue.

I was having this issue on Wayland. If you installed RetroArch on Flatpak, use Flatseal and disable 'Wayland windowing system'. That seems to have fixed it for me.

Grief commented 1 month ago

I have the same issue. For me, moving mouse helps immediately, but it's very annoything. Any workaround?
