Sorry, didn't see this part of your message before.

To see the actual state of the DIQ in the hardware, you should look at
the HQD. You can find the matching HQD by looking at the queue base
address (cp_hqd_pq_base) which is at offset 0x220 in the MQD and offset
0xc934 in the register space (HQD).

I've debugged some obscure CP hangs involving the DIQ and wave control
commands before, that required help from the firmware team. The fix was
to remove synchronization with release_mem packets that could hang in
combination with wave control. It turned out the synchronization wasn't
really needed anyway. But it had some implications for how memory was
managed. I had to add code to allocate the IB on the queue (using a NOP
command), so I wouldn't have to free it explicitly (which would require
synchronization). I think that code is still not 100% correct. When the
queue is nearly full, an IB may get overwritten. I'd have to restructure
the code to allocate the IB after the commands that submit the IB, so
that the IB can't get overwritten until after the IB execution is finished.
