Radeontop hangs the entire system, requires hard reset

Opened this issue · 1 comments

OS: Kubuntu 20.04.1 LTS, kernel 5.4.0-58-generic
Hardware: Ryzen 7 3700U, Vega 10 integrated graphics; default driver

Installed radeontop via apt

Radeontop starts as root and shows the values, but

  1. the values for load seem to be inverted (it reports 99% GPU usage when idle, but when you're trying to move around windows, it reports "dropping" values); the values for memory consumption seem OK
  2. more critically, within 10-15 seconds, the system just hangs and becomes completely unresponsive until you press reset button

See #87. Kernel bug, an app like radeontop can't hang the system like that.
