Hi keir, As you mention before, we may call hypercall straightly from user space rather than bouncing through guest kernel. I'm planning to do this. I want to modifty three hypercalls first.( I think they are frequently used). 1. send_event_pending, 2. hvm_set_isa_irq_level, 3. hvm_set_pci_intx_level. In the first hypercall, it sends port through pointer rather than value. Thus it's difficult to call send_event_pending from user space due to there is no similar mechanism as xencomm in user space. Is it possible we pass port through value in send_event_pending hypercall? If you agree. I would like to do this. --Anthony _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
