/*G:031 But first, how does our Guest contact the Host to ask for privileged
* operations? There are two ways: the direct way is to make a "hypercall",
* 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
+ * We use the KVM hypercall mechanism. Eighteen 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
+ * arguments (when required) are placed in %ebx, %ecx and %edx. 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". */
