Hi Chris:
Thanks for the reply! I just dig the code. It looks there is no special code path for execlist shutdown. It has init_rings(), but doesn't have cleanup_rings(), only clean_ring(), which are called for each ring one by one when i915_gem_cleanup_ringbuffer() gets called.

Do you have any advice? :)

Thanks,
Zhi.

Hi Chris:
     Thanks for the comments that extends our knowledge about this 
modification. Really appreciate the help. But is it possible that we still need 
an ordinary gpu reset here? Consider that we may modprobe i915 with 
i915.enable_execlists=1 then unload it, then modprobe i915.enable_execlists=0, 
according to bspec, changing execlist mode to ringbuffer mode, a hardware reset 
is needed?

Sounds credible that execlist -> execbuffer requires a reset. That reset
should be called in execlist shutdown and documented appropriately.
