Description Niklas 2015-09-18 11:49:14 UTC
Created attachment 1074806 [details]
strace glxgears run over ssh with X forwarding

Description of problem:
Since upgrade to f22, openGL-applications cannot run from a remote host, at least IF the remote host is equipped with NVIDIA graphics and native drivers.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora 22:
kernel 4.1.6-201.fc22.x86_64
Tested with clients:
-- workstation with nvidia drivers
-- laptop with intel drivers
-- Gnome on Xorg or Wayland
-- Also tested with plain OpenBOX

How reproducible:

Allways, when remote host has NVIDIA drivers. Tested on several machines.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.

ssh -X server-with-nvidia
glxgears
#X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for #operation)
#  Major opcode of failed request:  153 (GLX)
#  Minor opcode of failed request:  3 (X_GLXCreateContext)
#  Value in failed request:  0x0
#  Serial number of failed request:  24
#  Current serial number in output stream:  25

2.

ssh -X server-with-intel
glxgears
# WORKS FINE

3.

Actual results:


Expected results:

glxgears to run fine over ssh connection.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle.
Changing version to '24'.

Comment 3 James Hartsock 2016-06-28 01:23:38 UTC
So on Fedora the issue here was that nvidia is modifying the OS provided libGL librarries, and sure something similar on Fedora

# sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-361.42.run -a --no-nvidia-modprobe --no-kernel-module --keep

# rpm -V xorg-x11-xauth glx-utils mesa-dri-drivers libICE libSM libXmu libXt libX11 libX11-common libXau libXdamage libXext libXfixes libXxf86vm libxcb libxshmfence mesa-libGL mesa-libglapi mesa-filesystem mesa-private-llvm
....L....    /usr/lib64/libGL.so.1
missing     /usr/lib64/libGL.so.1.2.0





So to work-around issue

1) Use '--no-opengl-files' on nvidia's driver install
# sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-361.42.run -a --no-nvidia-modprobe --no-kernel-module --keep --no-opengl-files
# rpm -V mesa-libGL ; echo $?
0


2) Make a copy of the stock OS libGL and use LD_PRELOAD
$ scp /usr/lib64/libGL.so.1 root@test:.
$ ssh -X -l root test 'LD_PRELOAD="/root/libGL.so.1" glxgears'
1007 frames in 5.0 seconds = 201.376 FPS
1056 frames in 5.0 seconds = 211.102 FPS
1078 frames in 5.0 seconds = 215.527 FPS
1050 frames in 5.0 seconds = 209.910 FPS
1045 frames in 5.0 seconds = 208.898 FPS <---- working

Comment 4 Hans de Goede 2017-03-20 15:05:34 UTC
The nvidia drivers use glvnd, so this is likely due to a missing libGLX_indirect.so.0 symlink in your nvidia packages, note recent rpmfusion pkgs have this, is this still happening ?

For indirect rendering it does not matter which libGL you are using, so you can simply do (on the machine where you are ssh-ing to):

sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/libGLX_mesa.so.0 /usr/lib64/libGLX_indirect.so.0 

And that should fix this.

Anyways this is a bug with the nvidia driver packaging (if not fixed already), on F24 mesa does not use glvnd, closing.
