Thread-topic: Grant Table Hyper Calls For Sharing Memory

I was following an email chain in the xen mailing list on HVM hypercalls on grant tables and the email chain link is below

http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2007-03/msg00688.html

 

This link says that we need not required hypercalls to share memory b/w HVM’s.

 

But as far as my understanding of sharing memory is concerned, I think the memory is shared using grant table mechanism and we would need Hypercall support related to grant tables to make this possible.

 

Correct me if I am wrong.

 

Or is there any other way of sharing memory or Inter domain communication?

 

Thx,

Venkat
