It wasn't as much as that, I was trying to keep runtime suspend simple.
In that the GT takes the wakelock to prevent suspend as required and
not have the knowledge about all the users of the device inside runtime
management callbacks. (It means the users then have to be concious that
if they don't hold an explicit wakelock, they should check rpm first.)

It reports if it wakes up a waiter on any engine. If the bh is already
running, we cannot know if it has missed the seqno update. If it isn't
running yet, we cannot know if it is about to be run.


Oh I read the logic as completely opposite than what it is.

Since the idle worker runs 100ms after last retirement, that would
mean a really slow waiter or what?


It is dubious. But the idle worker runs 100ms after the first time we
detect all engines are idle and may be running as we detect all engines
are idle again. The only thing for sure is that in some cases that bdw-u
is reaching the idle-worker with an unwoken engine (and that there is
a race here in declaring it as a missed interrupt). I wasn't that
concerned about the race because of that 100ms delay where eveything
should have been idle, but on reflection that 100ms is not guarranteed.


Would canceling the idle worker be to expensive?

Either way, looks OK to me.

It is dubious. But the idle worker runs 100ms after the first time we
detect all engines are idle and may be running as we detect all engines
are idle again. The only thing for sure is that in some cases that bdw-u
is reaching the idle-worker with an unwoken engine (and that there is
