Ok, thank u.

i guess i'm lost without any TrustZone reference design...


Anyway, one last word about my Ned script, please.

Do i really have to transfer my IRQ over IPC (in no TrustZone design)?
At least in /pkg/ned/doc/tutorial.lua there is 'Irq' mentioned as a 
'useful constant'.
So i guess i can define IRQ in Lua, but i miss correct syntax.
