Sorry for not noticing earlier. I'm sorry, but I don't agree with that. First of all the FCP has no issue with >4GB memory as it doesn't perform DMA itself. Then, while the IPMMU is required to operate the VSP with >4GB memory, enabling the VSP instances won't break anything as unlike the DU the VSPs won't be used by standard kernel or userspace components. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
