No. As far as I can see, it can only be used to bind new interdomain
events, not other events.

OK, good, thanks.

This entire file (including the description) is copied directly from
Linux's include/uapi/xen/evtchn.h so the description shouldn't be
changed here anyway.

Not sure if you are targeting this at 4.9.  If you are you should have
CC'd the RM - doing that now.  From an upstream pov these changes
would make some difference to qemu depriv, improving it somewhat, and
they seem very low risk.


I wasn't targeting them at 4.10 since it bumps the version number of libxenevtchn and I thought it would be too late to submit a v1 of a patch which does that _after_ code freeze. I do agree that the change would be low risk.
