igt_assert_eq(item.length, -err);

s/err/expect/

I was looking for how err was being returned from i915_query_items....

And might as well pass in -EINVAL.

Let's refactor the duplicated code

static void __query_cs_cycles(int i915, void *data)
{
       struct drm_i915_query_item item = {
               .query_id = DRM_I915_QUERY_CS_CYCLES,

               .length = sizeof(struct drm_i915_query_cs_cycles),
       };

       i915_query_items(i915, &item, 1);
       return item.length;
}

static bool query_cs_cycles_supported(int fd)
{
	return __query_cs_cycles(fd, NULL) > 0;
}

static bool engine_has_cs_cycles(int i915, uint16_t class, uint16_t instance)
{
       struct drm_i915_query_cs_cycles ts = {
	       .engine = { class, instance }
       };

       return __query_cs_cycles(i915, &ts) != -ENODEV;
}

Nothing is keeping the CS awake, its counter is allowed to switch off
between reads.

I would run this test with a spinner in the background

uint32_t ctx = gem_context_create_for_engine(i915, engine.class, engine.instance);
igt_spin_t *spin = igt_spin_new(i915, ctx);
gem_context_destroy(i915, ctx);

...

igt_spin_free(i915, spin);

And even repeat the test to see if the counter does switch off. Although
we can hypothesis that one day it may be replaced by an always running
counter.

Otherwise you won't know that the EINVALs are because it didn't like the
flags or class or instance in a moment.

query_cs_cycles_supported() should cover gen >= 6, and the test itself
is not gen specific (i.e no instructions that require a later gen).

Do the invalid check first, it's just neater flow when using --run cs-cycles*
