I am surprised that the code from this repo is working in your case as we
haven't yet upgraded (or validated) it to work with dGPUs. We are planning
to do it soon.

The image does resemble the case where the texture's underlying memory
layout is still tiled.

Hmm, that means the memory layout is actually tiled but EGL is telling you
that it is DRM_FORMAT_MOD_LINEAR. I think this was an issue with older
Mesa versions, so can you please try again with upstream master?

> crash / vaCreateSurfaces error/ image error still happens.
Based on what you described, IIUC, it looks like the msdk/va plugins are
unable to properly handle dmabufs (textures) created from vram but seem
to work OK with buffers that reside in system ram (buffers created by
virtio-gpu). 

Our Media team is working on upgrading MSDK/Va plugins to work with
OneVPL, so can you please try with upstream master versions of these plugins?
Also try with "export INTEL_MEDIA_RUNTIME=ONEVPL" in your environment
before launching Qemu to see if it helps.

Thanks,
Vivek
