How dom0 send notifications to domu with best performance

Hi,
How can dom0 send notifications to domu as some events happens(events are
not hardware related). I know it can be done using event channel or through
networking. Is there any other way? and which has the best
performance?Performance really matters for my purpose.

Thanks

Mina,

Recommended checking out libvchan. Example code is not in tools/libvchan --
see also qubes os.

.. which you can use to create a memory region that is seen by both guests
and you can create a semaphore on it. It even has the tools to advertise
that one of the bytes will cause an event - so if one of the guests
writes to it - the other end is instantly notified.
