Write and reads following the block changed use engine specific use counters
and unless that is matched here force wake use counting goes bad. Same
force wake is attempted to be taken twice which leads to at least time outs.

Is it worth a v2 to have gen >= 9 here?

I think we should have gen >= 8 here.

Shadowed ELSP's seems not to work on gen8. And the posting read will
need fw anyways.

Assuming the shadowing works on skl and we can get rid of the posting
read, we could run this part without taking forcewake.

But that would not match against the current implementation of GEN8 vs 
CHV read/write functions.

I don't know what criteria would need to be satisfied to get rid of the 
posting read. On GEN9 only you are saying?

2nd part, how to test if shadowing works? Just remove force wakes and 
see what happens?

Thanks,

The first problem here is that we have two sets of reference counts, one
for FORCEWAKE_ALL (uncore.forcewake_count) and one for each forcewake
engine on CHV/SKL. CHV has 2 fw engines, SKL 3.

So, in that regard, maybe the fw engine abstraction needs work to unify
the reference counts.

The least intrusive change to make SKL not error out would be to have a
separate code path for gen >= 9 with the 3 engines.

The thread leading to that patch is great and already has all the right
questions. We just ignored them.

The most immediate one is, why are we waking up all the fw engines when
writing a specific ring ELSP, but the whole thread is worth reading.

And that's a separate issue, can we use the shadow register mechanism to
ensure the write lands and is that enough? Let's try to ask people
internally about that.

HTH,
