Hey Andrzej,

On a second thought, what do you think about something like

+               gen8_pte_t __iomem *gte = to_gt(i915)->ggtt->gsm;
+               gen8_pte_t pte;
+               gte += base / I915_GTT_PAGE_SIZE;
+               pte = ioread64(gte);
+               pte = pte & I915_GTT_PAGE_MASK;
+               phys_base = pte - i915->mm.stolen_region->region.start;

The only difference is the last line.

Based on what I wrote before, I think `phys_base` is named incorrectly and
that it does not reflect the physical address, but the start offset of
i915->mm.stolen_region. So if we offset the start value of the stolen
region, this code looks correct to me (and it also works on my
MeteorLake device).

What do you think?


Many thanks,
Paz
