The pseudo code is like this:
At the Dom0 side:
1. xu_port_new(domid,0,0) // create a new port and connect dom0 and
domU(domid)
2. create a new message
ctrl_msg_t cmsg;
cmsg.type = CMSG_SVDIF_FE;
cmsg.id = 1;
cmsg.subtype = 1;
channel_msg.local = scp->local_port;
channel_msg.remote = scp->remote_port;
memcpy(cmsg.msg,&channel_msg,sizeof(channel_msg));
cmsg.length = sizeof(channel_msg);
3. xu_port_write_request() send out the new msg
4. xu_port_notify() send out notification to the DomU, the local port is
retrieved with the following codes:
local_port = 0;
remote_port = 1;
xc_evtchn_bind_interdomain(self->xc_handle,DOMID_SELF,domid,&local_port,
&remote_port);
5. quit.
At the DomU side, we use a simple kernel module, it first register a
receiver with ctrl_if_register_receiver(CMSG_SVDIF_FE, ctrl_if_rx);
In ctrl_if_rx, we just print out the received msg.
That's it. If the Dom0 app runs in a slow manner, everything seems to be
fine. But if the Dom0 app runs very fast, after 2 or 3 rounds, DomU will
suspend.
Can someone help me out? I was stuck for quite long time. :( Thanks in
advance.
