Description
Status update at the bottom: have not faced this in a long time now.
NVIDIA Open GPU Kernel Modules Version
580.105.08
Please confirm this issue does not happen with the proprietary driver (of the same version). This issue tracker is only for bugs specific to the open kernel driver.
- I confirm that this does not happen with the proprietary driver package.
Operating System and Version
NixOS unstable (25.11.20251121)
Kernel Release
6.12.57
Please confirm you are running a stable release kernel (e.g. not a -rc). We do not accept bug reports for unreleased kernels.
- I am running on a stable kernel release.
Hardware: GPU
GPU 0: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU (UUID: GPU-f84659ba-ebcd-431c-d2a3-5dd1d5c39cc2)
Describe the bug
The nvidia kernel module produces a kernel panic on shutdown after being updated 580.95.05 -> 580.105.08. See the linked forum post for the logs.
To Reproduce
Turn off the laptop normally, no special requirements.
Bug Incidence
Always

More Info
This issue DOES appear in the closed source version of the driver without the kernel modules, see reported in the forum, though with significantly distinct logs. For that reason I decided to report here as well, as it is explicitly a failing assert in the open kernel modules. If not appropriate, just close this.
UPDATE
2025-03-12: this issue persists in 580.126.18. It is however NOT present in 590.48.01 nor 595.45.04 anymore (in all cases, now within kernel 6.12.76)

Research direction
Start with nvidia-bug-report.log.gz and the linked forum report, comparing the shutdown panic across driver versions 580.105.08, 580.126.18, 590.48.01, and 595.45.04. Confirm whether the failure is still reproducible on the stated kernel and determine whether an actionable regression remains; the issue is no longer observed in the later versions mentioned.
