Nvidia: Frequent gnome-shell filesystem operations since linux-drm-syncobj-v1
- OS: Arch Linux
- GNOME 46
- mutter from
main
(1fdae4f8) - kernel 6.8.7
- nvidia 3060 with proprietary drivers.
With the tool fatrace
I've noticed excessive FS operations on root mount point. No suspicious log entries.
For the fatrace to work against btrfs partitions I mounted root partition to an arbitrary mount point, so you see /mnt/@ in the video.
Bisected to 99209958 (cogl: Store latest GPU work completed sync fd).
Isn't reproduced on intel or nouveau with gsp on both 6.8/6.9 kernels.
