Currently intel_gt_reset() happens as follows:

reset_prepare() ---> Sends GDRST to GuC, GuC is in GS_MIA_IN_RESET
do_reset()
    __intel_gt_reset()

        GuC
        *_reset_engines()
intel_gt_init_hw() --> GuC FW loading happens, GuC comes out of
GS_MIA_IN_RESET.

Fix the above flow so that GuC reset happens after all the
engines reset is done.

This seems like an extremely bad idea. You are wiping out all the GuC communication structures on the host side while the GuC itself is still executing and using those same structures.

Is the failure when doing individual engine resets or when doing a full GT reset?

The failed test is doing "intel_gt_reset(gt, ALL_ENGINES, NULL)" so a full GT reset.



If the former, I think a better approach would be to just not reset GuC at all (or indeed any UC) if not using GuC submission. Although, looking at the code, I'm not seeing an engine only reset path that does nuke the UC layers?


Yes, intel_engine_reset() doesn't touch UC layer.


If it is the latter,

This is the case here.


then how/why are individual engine resets happening in the middle of a full GT reset? Don't we just splat everything all at once?

It seems we use __intel_gt_reset(engine->gt, engine_mask) to reset all or some engines.

Either way, it would be safer to split at the GT reset code layer rather than inside the UC layer. That is, when not using GuC submission, do the entire prepare/reset/init sequence of the UC layers as one 'atomic' operation either before the GT/engine reset or after it (or potentially both before and after?).

I think this should work. Let me try it out


Thanks,

Nirmoy



John.
