Hello,

I am investigating how to establish two-way communication between
domains using shared memory and interdomain IPC. It would be very
helpful, if someone could answer some questions:

1. In xenctrl.h the description of xc_map_foreign_range refers to a
structure named "control_if_t". This name seems to be bogus, since no
such structure exists. What structure is meant in this comment?

2. libxenctrl seems to miss functionality to access the bind_interdomain
hypercall. Is there any other way to do that? And how would a Linux
process wait for a notification on a port?

Regards,
Julian
