But there's nothing wrong with the existing tests per-se? You just want to add a new one that explicitly tests rc6 save/restore, and in doing so just need to limit the forcewake. For that you just want to limit intel_register_access to the critical sections. (You don't need to find the pci_dev afresh everytime.) On some platforms (BXT) it does not restore L3CC registers. So that on these platforms the direct read will fail unless you hold forcewake for the whole test. It also implies that the registers are valid for the whole power lifecycle, so if you are using the tests as API documentation then it implies that the registers are always valid. This is not always true on all platforms. So the direct memory reads are removed to give the correct API usage for the MOCS. That is that the l3CC registers are only valid while in the RCS context. > +static unsigned int readit(const char *path) { > + unsigned int ret = 0; > + int scanned = 0; > + FILE *file; > + > + file = fopen(path, "r"); > + igt_assert(file); > + scanned = fscanf(file, "%u", &ret); > + igt_assert_eq(scanned, 1); > + > + fclose(file); > + > + return ret; > +} > + > +static int read_rc6_residency(void) > +{ > + unsigned int residency; > + const int device = drm_get_card(); > + static const char path_format[] = > + "/sys/class/drm/card%d/power/rc6_residency_ms"; > + char path[sizeof(path_format)]; > + int ret; > + > + ret = snprintf(path, sizeof(path)-1, path_format, device); > + > + igt_assert_neq(ret, -1); > + residency = readit(path); This should be using a sysfs helper. igt_sysfs.c should already be sufficient, or if not, please improve.

Decided against that as 3 seconds (I know magic value) should have been enough. I can change to do the spin with a timeout. and importantly: igt_require(read_rc6_residency() != initial_res); Don't assert for what may be a user configuration. Ok, that makes a lot of sense. Will check that RC6 is on in kernel and BIOS settings.
