Just an update to my previous post Can we have access to these api's at kernel level ?? I require CGGetActiveDisplayList and CGDisplayBaseAddress in specific.

Actually i am accessing accessing frambuffer from my user application. Now i need to do the same from my kernel extension. I think you are making a number of flawed architectural assumptions here, but at this point you have very clearly passed beyond the level of help you can expect from this list. You should take this matter up with DTS directly. I would encourage you to follow their advice.

The longer answer you will get is "whatever you are trying to do should be done in user space; you are trying to do something in the kernel that does not belong in the kernel". This will likely involve one of several kernel/user IPC mechanisms, all of which are documented with sample code at <http://developer.apple.com/>. The people on this list capable of discussing them will likely only be willing to discuss them if you have read the documentation already, and need clarification on minor issues, after having written your code.
