They're somewhat orthogonal. The hardware (or rather firmware I guess?) now has a way to tell software that there's ECC present that would impact bandwidth, and in general that notification could be used with any kind of RAM. Some platforms will never have a situation where ECC matters to bandwidth (so this new flag will never be set), some igpu platforms will have cases where system memory ECC impacts bandwidth, and some dgpu platforms will have cases where vram ECC impacts bandwidth. We don't have any relevant rules at the moment, but real details may get added to the spec later as we get closer to supporting the specific platform(s) that these IP versions will be incorporated into. But adding the general ability to read out the new flag and have it ready for when platform-specific details start arriving in the future seems fine to me. We could add a warning print if the flag is actually getting set on some platform before we have any rules documenting what we're supposed to do about it. In general, I'm wondering if the memory bandwidth numbers are something that we should consider moving back to platform-based checks. The hardware teams tie these kinds of changes to tickets associated with specific IPs, but that's mostly just because of how the databases for hardware changes are organized these days. The reality is that the details for memory characteristics are something that's more defined by the underlying platform rather than the IP (and that's especially true for igpu platforms where where we're talking about system memory that's used by the CPU and all the other devices on the platform as well).
