Hi,

Is it possible to acess the display controller through DSP in OMAP 3530.

I want to display an image after decoding by 64x+ using CCS.

Please let me know if this is possible with out using ARM at all.

Thanks,

Manoj

Based on the technical reference manual

I belive this should be possible.

Chapter 2 of the TRM (SPRUF98) discusses the Memory Map of the OMAP3530 device. Please reference Table 2-10 to get the IVA2.2's (DSP) view of the device memory map. The last entry in that table shows the IVA2.2 access to memory and peripherals on the device and the address range.
The DSS is in that range.

Just a comment on this, though it is physically possible to do, we do not have software support for this as mentioned in https://community.ti.com/forums/p/2470/9909.aspx#9909 therefore you would have to write your own C64x+ based display driver which is no small task even if you leveraged the existing Linux display driver source.
