Subject: DomU-Dom0 communication question
Date: Wed, 02 May 2007 10:26:31 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4591123.662921178115991050.JavaMail.servlet@perfora> (raw)

Hi all,

I need to create a custom communication channel between DomU and Dom0 in order to send arbitrary messages/buffers between applications in Dom0 and DomU. 

Basically, I am thinking about making a char control driver on both sides that would transport those messages to subscribers on either end using defined IOCL calls.

I am looking at backend/frontend drivers and I don't think it would work for what I want to do as fron/back ends don't have any devices associated with it. 

Would it be better to utilize event channel directly or write frontend/backend drivers and control drivers on both ends? Or maybe there is another mechanism that already exists in xen environment and I am just trying to do things the hard way? Any advise is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Max
