I'm not all together sure how this (the Google SoC project) differs from the dspgateway, except perhaps for the choice of DSP. Why have yet another way of bridging between ARM and DSP? >> Could someone (with more technical expertise then me) comment on this? >> > > Please refer my post at linux-omap mailing list. > > http://linux.omap.com/pipermail/linux-omap-open-source/2007-November/012049.html This is interesting, mainly for the dspfs and the request for more access to the IVA.

I had a look at the DaVinci processor information available from Ti and it seems they don't really want to give much away (probably because this is their current main model line or something like that). We do already have a Linux Ti toolchain ( https://www-a.ti.com/downloads/sds_support/targetcontent/LinuxDspTools/index.html) which is for the C55x only (i.e. is useful to us). I'm not sure the release of another (similar afaict) toolchain for the C54x will make any odds to us (except perhaps that Ti are embracing open source developers :).
