[Bug 550850] Re: compiz exits with radeon error

[Martin Garton]

I decided to run strace on compiz, and perhaps this is a clue.  Here is
an excerpt from the strace output just before the error:

8346  ioctl(5, 0xc010640b, 0xbfe94660)  = 0
8346  ioctl(5, 0xc00c6469, 0xbfe94684)  = 0
8346  ioctl(5, 0xc010640b, 0xbfe94660)  = 0
8346  ioctl(5, 0xc00c6469, 0xbfe94684)  = 0
8346  ioctl(5, 0xc010640b, 0xbfe94660)  = 0
8346  ioctl(5, 0xc00c6469, 0xbfe94684)  = 0
8346  ioctl(5, 0x40086409, 0xbfe94728)  = 0
8346  ioctl(5, 0x40086409, 0xbfe94728)  = 0
8346  ioctl(5, 0xc0206466, 0xa1d4174)   = -1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory)
8346  write(2, "drmRadeonCmdBuffer: -12. Kernel "..., 101) = 101

So immediately before the error I am getting ENOMEM returned.  FYI, fd 5
is /dev/dri/card0
