Yes, so Tegra194 has three different instances of the SMMU. Two of them are programmed in an interleaved mode to basically double the bandwidth available. A third instance is specifically reserved for isochronous memory clients and is used by the display controller to avoid potential pressure on the dual-SMMU from interfering with display functionality. I'm not sure if we've ever measured the impact of map/unmap operations under heavy load. Krishna, do you know if this might be helpful for some of the use-cases we have on Tegra? Or if it might negatively impact performance under pressure? Thierry
