+If the KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_INTERCEPT_HCALL flag is returned from the
+KVM_CAP_XEN_HVM check, it may be set in the flags field of this ioctl.
+This requests KVM to generate the contents of the hypercall page
+automatically; hypercalls will be intercepted and passed to userspace
+through KVM_EXIT_XEN.  In this case, all of the blob size and address
+fields must be zero.
+
+No other flags are currently valid in the struct kvm_xen_hvm_config.

+KVM_XEN_ATTR_TYPE_SHARED_INFO
+  Sets the guest physical frame number at which the Xen "shared info"
+  page resides. Note that although Xen places vcpu_info for the first
+  32 vCPUs in the shared_info page, KVM does not automatically do so
+  and instead requires that KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_VCPU_INFO be used
+  explicitly even when the vcpu_info for a given vCPU resides at the
+  "default" location in the shared_info page. This is because KVM is
+  not aware of the Xen CPU id which is used as the index into the
+  vcpu_info[] array, so cannot know the correct default location.

+KVM_XEN_ATTR_TYPE_UPCALL_VECTOR
+  Sets the exception vector used to deliver Xen event channel upcalls.
