Upgrading libdrm-intel1 from 2.4.56 to 2.4.58 broke the ability to launch steam games on optimus system (using bumblebee and primus). Most games does not start without any error message from steam console.

This thread (https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/3506) lead me to this package. Downgrading to 2.4.56 fix the problem.

Except this, bumblebee work as expected.

I have exactly the same problem. Steam error log shows

  malloc: unknown:0: assertion botched
  free: called with unallocated block argument

for the games that do not running using "optirun steam" or editing the
launch settings for each game.

I've not tried downgrading to an older version of the libdrm intel
package however as editing the shell script for each game to run optirun
prior to the ${DEBUGGER} arg seems to also work. Not an ideal solution
but it saves downgrading a package.

I'm running Debian Jessie with a Geforce 850M and optimus using
bumblebee and either optirun or primusrun. I also have the same
libdrm-intel package version installed as the OP.

Regards,

Gary

I also experience this issue. A workaround is to downgrade libdrm-intel1
to 2.4.56-1, plus the other related dependencies: libdrm2, libdrm-dev,
libdrm-nouveau2 and libdrm-radeon1. For people with this issue, you cand
find them here:
http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20140810T163814Z/pool/main/libd/libdrm/

I think that while this isn't fixed in 2.4.58, 2.4.56 should be
installed by defaut.

Good news ! This bug has been fixed by the nvidia non-free driver update
340.65-1:
http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//non-free/n/nvidia-graphics-drivers/nvidia-graphics-drivers_340.65-2_changelog
" - Fixed a regression that caused displays to be detected incorrectly
on some notebook systems.  (Closes: #770798, #765726)"

Obviously, the latest intel driver had incompatibilities with the nvidia
driver.

This bug could be closed.

I upgraded nvidia-driver to 340.65-2 and reinstalled libdrm-intel1 2.4.58-2
and launching Steam games through optirun still doesn't work.

    intel: Add support for userptr objects

    Allow userptr objects to be created and used via libdrm_intel.

    At the moment tiling and mapping to GTT aperture is not supported
    due hardware limitations across different generations and uncertainty
    about its usefulness.

    v2: Improved error handling in feature detection per review comments.

    v3: Rebase on top of the drm_public addition, minor whitespace addition.
