+/*G:031 But first, how does our Guest contact the Host to ask for privileged

+ * to make requests of the Host Itself.
+ *
+ * Our hypercall mechanism uses the highest unused trap code (traps 32 and
+ * above are used by real hardware interrupts). Fifteen hypercalls are
+ * available: the hypercall number is put in the %eax register, and the
+ * arguments (when required) are placed in %edx, %ebx and %ecx. If a return
+ * value makes sense, it's returned in %eax.
+ *
+ * Grossly invalid calls result in Sudden Death at the hands of the vengeful
+ * Host, rather than returning failure. This reflects Winston Churchill's
+ * definition of a gentleman: "someone who is only rude intentionally". */
