[PATCH] tests/intel/xe_configfs: Use available engine for ctx-restore subtests

Nitin Gote
2026-04-29T05:41:01Z

The ctx-restore-post-bb and ctx-restore-mid-bb subtests were hardcoded
to use the "rcs" engine class. Platforms without a render engine (e.g.
PVC, CRI) fail because the batch buffer is never injected into any
engine's LRC, causing register readback to fail.

Fix by dynamically detecting an available engine in the fixture using
xe_for_each_engine(). Prefer render ("rcs") when available, otherwise
fall back to compute ("ccs"). Every xe platform has at least one of
these engine classes. Remove the hardcoded "rcs" from test data and
add the detected engine name at runtime.

v2: Add igt_require_f(engine, "explanation\n") (Kamil)
