What kernel version are you using?
If you make sure CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM is enabled in your kernel config, you
should have all the mechanisms in place in the kernel to issue
hypercalls.
At that point if you also make sure CONFIG_XENFS is enabled, you should
also be able to issue hypercalls from userland.
