Re: [Xen-devel] errors building - redefinitions in pci.h

[Derek Riley <derek.riley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello-
I am working on a project to modify Xen to precisely control the
execution times of the individual guest domains, and I need some help. 
I considered modifying the XM python program, but it is not precise or
fast enough for my application.  

I want to be able to pass short, simple message quickly between an
application-level process and the Xen kernel asynchonously.  I found an
IPC mechanism designed for the method called netlink
(http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7356), but I am not sure how to
incorporate it into the Xen kernel.  When I attempt to recompile the
kernel with netlink, I get errors that seem to stem from type issues I
am not familiar with.  

2 questions:
Is it possible to use a mechanism such as netlink with Xen?  If so, how?
Is there other functionality within Xen that could be used with minimal modification to do IPC within domain0?  

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
--Derek
