+Acquire resource reference
+==========================
+
+Acquire resource allows you to share a resource between Xen and dom0.

That doesn't sound right. The resources 'belong' to Xen, and are specific to a particular domain (A). Another domain (B) with enough privilege over domain A can then map and hence access those resources.
