Hi Christian,
Thank you for your answers.
You are right, you define my application scenario correctly.
Now i am trying implement the solution you have suggested me, but I have an error. I place a file in a ram_fs file system and permit access to the file system to a Noux process. I got the following log messages when I tried to access the file from the Noux process. The name of the Noux process is test. Appreciate if someone can help.
no RM attachment (READ pf_addr=0 pf_ip=84ad from b2cfd156 test) void Genode::Signal_transmitter::submit(unsigned int): failed - error 4 static void Genode::Pager_object::_page_fault_handler(Genode::addr_t): page fault, thread 'test', cpu 0, ip=84ad, fault address=0x0
Thanks,

What you're trying to achieve is to run two components (tz_vmm and a Noux process) and trigger the execution of a function in the Noux process by the tz_vmm component, right? I fear that my rephrasing does not make anything more clear in your application scenario but I will nevertheless try to propose a direction to follow.
The Noux environment provides a POSIX runtime and POSIX (pthreads etc. aside) is all about files when it comes to data exchange. So, you may monitor a file (e.g., via select()) in the program. If you place the file in a ram_fs and permit access to the file system to both, the Noux process and tz_vmm, tz_vmm could trigger code execution in the Noux process by writing into the file that is monitored. This scenario should also work on any POSIX system where you may implement a prototype.
In case I got you wrong, please try to elaborate more on your goals or give more details about your scenario.
