several of tsys' kernel patches have yet to make it upstream. you can see all of them in his repo:
https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/linux-pi...mits/v5.7/

I'm very happy that it's working fine for you, without any sarcasm. But unless I have LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE defined in /etc/environment I get randomly first everything freezing and then caps lock indicator flashing red soon afterwards. Or at least I assume that flashing red indicator is to show kernel panic. And sometimes it'll work only few seconds after logging in, sometimes it'll work for most of the day, but usually unless I render everything strictly in software I will have to reboot at least once in a day, whereas with LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE I can go on for the whole week without any reboots. My setup - Debian Sid, kernel I tried building last time was from https://gitlab.manjaro.org/tsys/linux-pi...e/v5.7-rc7, mesa-git from whatever was last commit at the time, I don't remember. I don't use Sway or Wayland, I use KDE Plasma on good'ol X11 - some apps I use don't play nice with Wayland yet. In /var/log/messages I can see only some traces around VM_BUG_ON_PAGE and Panfrost, perhaps some conflict between the video driver and zram?

i occasionally use x11 in testing, but don't have gnome or kde installed (i use i3 for that...). could very well be a mesa problem. yes the red flashing caps lock is kernel panic. i know the manjaro folks are tracking what kde apps don't work in wayland - could seek out that thread for more info.

i also don't use zram, but zswap and build into the kernel.

curious to know what you are doing when you get the kernel panic.
