Hello Maxime, On NVIDIA Tegra we use interconnect framework for converting of workload-based memory bandwidth requirement to the memory clock rate [1]. All Tegra SoCs have two display controllers and other memory clients, ICC takes care of summing and updating memory bandwidth for us, which in the end results in a freq change of the shared memory controller. [1] https://git.kernel.org/linus/04d5d5df9 Not so long time ago me and Thierry Reding were looking at yours v1 and back then Thierry suggested that the same ICC approach might work for yours case. I'm now looking at the v2 and yours discussion with Stephen Boyd, and it appears that ICC is indeed what you really need. Have you considered to use ICC?
