The ARM cores have MMUs between them and the SoC bus, but the VC4 VPU and its peripherals do not, leading to the need for contiguous allocations. Some VPU peripherals can only address 256MB of RAM, which further constrains allocations. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
