But, It is at the expense of throwing away valid tlb entries. Quantifying the impact of arbitrary invalidation of valid tlb entries at context level is not straight forward and use case dependent. The side-effects might be rare or won't be known until they are noticed. Can you provide more details on How the unmap latency is causing camera to drop frames? Is unmap performed in the perf path? If unmap is queued and performed on a back ground thread, would it resolve the frame drops? -KR
