   @datenwolf @mia @navi @neal @miah Seems like it should be more like 10ms or less (scheduling timeslice) and the interruption should be as non-destructive as possible (just like on the cpu).

     So can anything that can talk to a GPU driver.

     This is not an X.org issue. GPU clients locking up the GPU have been known for a long time and on every platform that have APIs that grant a direct channel to the GPU.

     Windows has a watchdog timer, reseting the GPU if it gets stalled by more than 250ms. macOS as a watchdog timer doing the same thing.
