Bspec page says "Reset: BUS", Accordingly moving w/a's:
Wa_1407352427,Wa_1406680159 to proper function icl_gt_workarounds_init()
Which will resolve guc enabling error

v2:
  - Previous patch rev2 was created by email client which caused the
    Build failure, This v2 is to resolve the previous broken series

It seems like this patch is needed to be able to load GuC in ICL:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/4067#note_1184951

And that is failing on Linus' master branch as of
2a987e65025e ("Merge tag 'perf-tools-fixes-for-v5.16-2021-12-07' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux")
and (at least) 5.15.*. Looking at the appropriate "Fixes" tag I found these commits:

   1) 1cd21a7c5679 ("drm/i915: Add Wa_1407352427:icl,ehl") - original
      commit adding the WA
   2) 3551ff928744 ("drm/i915/gen11: Moving WAs to rcs_engine_wa_init()")
      moving the WA to rcs_engine_wa_init()

However (2) is on v5.7-rc1 and (1) is on v5.6-rc1 and according to the
bug report GuC loading was working on 5.13. So I suspect the move
to GuC 62.0.0 made the checks more strict, or there is another patch
This is correct.  Having "GT workarounds" on the engine list by accident
used to be harmless (because i915 [with execlist submission] and the guc
[with guc submission]) would simply re-apply the register setting more
often than it really needed to.  However the more recent GuC versions
have become more picky about the set of registers they're willing to
Actually, I think the GuC was always picky but we haven't supported GuC submission upstream for quite some time. There was very old support (never enabled by default) in the VLV timescale. And at that time, we were not using GuC scheduling anyway, so no save/restore list. I think by ICL it had already been removed as broken. All you could do was load the GuC in order to load the HuC. It is only recently with the ADL-P/DG1 support that GuC submission has been re-implemented and the save/restore list added in.


save/restore for workarounds and will fail to load if they see a
register on the save/restore list that isn't something they think is
appropriate for an engine reset.

GuC submission isn't officially supported on ICL; you can force it via
module parameter, which taints the kernel and takes you through untested
codepaths, so you do so at your own risk.  Given that, I don't think
there's any real need to worry about getting this backported to specific
stable kernels; having the workaround in the wrong place doesn't
actually harm anything on the official and default non-GuC mode.
As above, even with GuC enabled, I still don't think it is a problem for any kernel using a GuC version earlier than 62.0.0.

Matt

that paired with that one makes load fail to load.

Anyway, it seems that commit is the one to fix and we probably need to
bring both moves to stable (5.15.y and 5.10.y ?), besides propagating
it to drm-intel-fixes so it applies to 5.16

Cc'ing some more people.
