Fix Blender error amdgpu_query_info failed (-9)
Since I switched to Arch Linux with the xf86-video-amdgpu
graphics driver for my AMD RX 570
, blender crashes immediately after start. Also running as root or reinstalling the drivers didn’t help.
This error message occurs:
~ $ blender
amdgpu_device_initialize: amdgpu_query_info(ACCEL_WORKING) failed (-9)
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
If we look at the dump (either in /tmp/bmw27_gpu.crash.txt
or /tmp/blender.crash.txt
), it looks something like this:

The solution
The solution comes from a StackExchange user, who suggests a downgrade on the libdrm
to version 2.4.93-1
.
In Arch I just used the tool downgrade
to do so:
- Install from the
AUR
with e.g.yay -S downgrade
- Find available versions:
downgrade libdrm
- Pick a version and downgrade to it (for me
2.4.93-1
worked)
After that, everything worked like a charm.
