The Witcher 2 unpredicably hangs Navi system

Hello there!

I reported this on the Mesa tracker but no progress has been done in 3 months. 

I have been using D9VK to play The Witcher 2 (also tested with Wine's and it also occurred) and I have found that once in a while my entire system freezes and hangs. I cannot enter TTY and I believe this is a gfx ring issue.

Unfortunately I cannot replicate the issue when doing an apitrace. I really did try playing with 10fps for hours and hours (longer than it normally would have taken for it to hang) but I cannot seem to get it. Instead I gathered these two files dmesg log and the RADV_TRACE_FILE log in hope it can help.

sudo journalctl -b -1 > dmesg.log

You can try changing D9VK version. Also, AMD may not offer improvements for DXVK API. You can ask this issue to AMD with that... https://www.amd.com/en/support/contact-email-form

This same issue occurs when using the OpenGL port of the game.
