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
