I'm actually happy I've asked this question, wasn't silly after all. I think the
problem here is a naming issue. What you really are monitor is "video memory",
which consist of a memory segment allocated to store data used to render images
(its not always images of course, GPU an VPU have specialized buffers for their
purpose).
Whether this should be split between what is used specifically by the GPU
drivers, the display drivers, the VPU (CODEC and pre/post-processor) or camera
drivers is something that should be discussed. But in the current approach, you
really meant Video memory as a superset of the above. Personally, I think
generically (to de-Andronized your work), en-globing all video memory is
sufficient. What I fail to understand is how you will manage to distinguished
DMABuf Heap allocation (which are used outside of Android btw), from Video
allocation or other type of usage. I'm sure non-video usage will exist in the
future (think of machine learning, compute, other high bandwidth streaming
thingy ...)
