Since we track the idle_pulse for flushing the barriers and avoid re-emitting the pulse upon idling if no futher action is required, this also impacts the heartbeat. Before emitting a fresh heartbeat, we look at the engine idle status and assume that if the pulse was the last request emitted along the heartbeat, the engine is idling and a heartbeat pulse not required. This assumption fails, but we can reuse the idle pulse as the heartbeat if we are yet to emit one, and so track the status of that pulse for our engine health check. This impacts tgl/rcs0 as we rely on the heartbeat for our healthcheck for the normal preemption detection mechanism is disabled by default.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
