The real requirement here is that HW context image should not have been
loaded before OA is enabled on the exec queue. That is what happens today
in the ENABLED state, correct, when user space submissions start?

If operations such as doorbell are only management requests to GuC (which
don't cause HW context image to be loaded) and if we can name a new state
when the exec queue is handed off to userspace for starting submissions, we
should be able to stay with this approach.

Yeah I did think of it but didn't want to change the uapi.

Also, a different implementation is possible which avoids this resizing of
the context image altogether. It requires the kernel OA code submit its
submissions on the user exec queue (and use that exec queue's VM, currently
OA code uses a kernel exec queue). There are some reasons I don't want to
implement that just yet, but worst case, we can do that if absolutely
needed.

Thanks.
