# RADV & RadeonSI Drivers See New Fixes For AMD GCN 1.0/1.1 GPUs

**[Phoronix](https://daily.dev/sources/phoronix)** · 2 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Valve's Linux graphics driver engineer Timur Kristóf has landed fixes in Mesa for AMD GCN 1.0 (GFX6) and GCN 1.1 (GFX7) GPUs, addressing hardware and firmware bugs in both the RADV Vulkan driver and RadeonSI Gallium3D OpenGL driver. The fix adds waiting for shaders and flushing the L2 cache after every submission on these older GPUs to prevent VM faults and GPU hangs caused by EVENT_WRITE_EOP signaling fences while L2 is still dirty. Additionally, a prior RADV workaround for Hawaii GPUs has been reverted since an equivalent fix was upstreamed to the AMDGPU kernel driver, which had been causing performance regressions on Hawaii hardware.
