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.
