I think there are two issues:
1) VIRQ vs some other sort of event channel
For PV guests we originally chose a VIRQ in order to have a well known
number against which the kernel driver could bind, so that it wasn't
dependent on any of the other interdomain communication systems (such

PV guests are known to have the event channel software present in the guest
kernel, so it is fine to depend on and use it.
* x86 HVM domains and all ARM domains are notified via VIRQ.
The intent is to remove the requirement for event channel softw
