  This possible root-cause doesn't seem plausible to me, because a gt
  wakeref would cause an unpark, so taking it within the park would probably
  cause a deadlock. Is it not more likely that the worker re-queued itself?

Will drop the likely part. The worker running during suspend is the issue, so keeping that part.


Only update stats if gt is awake. If not, intel_guc_busyness_park would
have already updated the stats. Note that we do not requeue the worker
if gt is not awake since intel_guc_busyness_unpark would do that at some
point.

If the gt was parked longer than time taken for GT timestamp to roll
over, we ignore those rollovers since we don't care about tracking the
exact GT time. We only care about roll overs when the gt is active and
running workloads.

Closes: [1]https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/7077

  This needs a fixes tag. Also, I'm not 100% sure but I believe we prefer
  "Link" to "Closes".

I thought Link was mostly for the patchworks link. I can change this to Link.

Any idea if there is a document/link that explains which tag to use for what? I have been confused by this before.

  Same comment from before about this explanation. I would just remove this

  Do we need to drop the _sync from the busyness stats worker parking if we
  take the gt_pm wakeref in here, instead of an rpm one? because if the
  gt_pm_put below causes a park and the park waits on this worker to
  complete then we'll deadlock.

Hmm, My bad, That's not what I intended. It should be intel_runtime_pm_get_if_active(). I will change that

        intel_gt_reset_unlock(gt, srcu);
+       intel_gt_pm_put(gt);

  I think this needs to go after the queuing, because it could cause a park
  and if it does we don't want to re-queue the worker immediately after,
  while if we queue it before then the park will cancel it.
  Non-blocking style comment: with gt_pm_put the last thing in function, you
  can also transform that early return in a "goto put;" and have a single
  place for the gt_put.

Will change, although I am not sure if the runtime pm put may also cause a gt park. Assuming it can, I will make these changes.

Thanks
