30 /*G:031 First, how does our Guest contact the Host to ask for privileged
31 * operations? There are two ways: the direct way is to make a "hypercall",
32 * to make requests of the Host Itself.
33 *
34 * Our hypercall mechanism uses the highest unused trap code (traps 32 and
35 * above are used by real hardware interrupts). Seventeen hypercalls are
36 * available: the hypercall number is put in the %eax register, and the
37 * arguments (when required) are placed in %edx, %ebx and %ecx. If a return
38 * value makes sense, it's returned in %eax.
39 *
40 * Grossly invalid calls result in Sudden Death at the hands of the vengeful
41 * Host, rather than returning failure. This reflects Winston Churchill's
42 * definition of a gentleman: "someone who is only rude intentionally". */
