waiting for RPC method to be called

[Emery Hemingway]

Hi Ben,

The 'Genode' way would be not to block for RPC, but to only run the
component during RPC or signal handling. If you need a component to
execute between RPC calls then signal handlers would be the way to go.
A private signal handler can perform the operations you need and block
for RPC by returning from the signal handling function. If the
execution should resume after RPC, send a signal to the local signal
handler before finishing the RPC method.

Cheers,
Emery
