Can we enlarge GLOBAL_MEM_SIZE for G6200 ?

#1

From the G6200 (MTK 6595) device information:
MAX_MEM_ALLOC_SIZE : 67108864
GLOBAL_MEM_SIZE : 268435456

From the Adreno 330 device information:
MAX_MEM_ALLOC_SIZE : 960544768
GLOBAL_MEM_SIZE : 960544768

Can we enlarge above parameter ?
If above parameters are not limited by hardware, which level setting need to be modified? Driver level or Android property level？

#2

Is there a specific use case where you would need more than the max alloc size? The value is set at the driver level, usually at a commonly useful value.

We use it on machine vision recognition.
Any property setting to let the driver to amend it ? Or it is hardcode setting ?

#4

If you wish to modify the setting you will have to get in touch with the chip vendor.
