Yep.

circular dependency.

The engine name and reason code are lost from the error capture? I guess we
still get it in the drm_err above, though. So probably not an issue. We
shouldn't be getting these from end users and any internal CI run is only
likely to give us the dmesg, not the error capture anyway! However, still
That was my reasoning on the msg too.

seems like it is work saving engine->mask in the submission_state structure
(ORing in, in case there are multiple resets). Clearing it should be safe
because once a GT reset has happened, we aren't getting any more G2Hs. And
we can't have multiple message handlers running concurrently, right? So no
need to protect the OR either.

I could do that but the engine->mask is really only used for the error
capture with GuC submission as any i915 based reset with GuC submission
is a GT reset. Going from engine->mask to ALL_ENGINES will just capture
all engine state before doing a GT reset which probably isn't a bad
thing, right?

I can update the commit message explaining this if that helps.
Except that a failure to reset is notionally a hardware bug. As recently demonstrated, it could be a software bug due to timeouts being broken. But officially, it is something that should never happen. So in the rare case where one does show up, we would want to know as much as possible about the issue. Most especially - which engine it was that failed. And if all we get is a customer bug report with an error capture but no dmesg then we will have no idea which. It just seems wrong to be throwing away potentially important information for no real reason.
