Brief summary of the problem:
When trying to play some games, or even randomly sometimes in xorg, I'll suffer a ring gfx timeout. This was avoidable by adding the kernel peram amdgpu.dpm=0.
However, on kernels after 5.10.76 I stopped being able to boot with this option, or even modprobe it after booting. Trying either of these leads to a freeze.
Recently: I attempted to take my old 5.10.76 config and used make olddefconfig to get a new config that's as close to the working version as possible.
That still didn't work.
I have many logs from many boot configurations, and the kernel configs I'm using.

How to reproduce the issue:
Add amdgpu.dpm=0 to the launch options. amdgpu.dc=0 does the same thing as well.
If booting works, it fixes the gfx timeout bug not occur, which is a nice plus.

The modprobe one is special because I mashed Ctrl-C while booting which allowed me to attpempt to manually load the drivers.
I have a log of a working 5.10 boot, three broken 5.15 boot, a working 5.15 boot.

Activity
This issue hasn't had any activity since 2022-01-26. The AMD driver stack changes rapidly and contains lots of shared code across products so it's possible that it has already been fixed. Please upgrade to a current stable kernel and userspace stack and try again. If you still experience this issue with the latest driver stack, please capture relevant logging and open a new issue referring back to this one.
