Hi, folks. I'm puzzled when the event handler is called in xen. I've only found a pending check and an upcall at the end of each hypercall. And an event delivery will cause a schedule, but no calling to the handler. So it seems when a domain sends a event to the other, the handler of that domain won't be called until it makes a hypercall or check it itself. That sounds not so reasonable. Could anyone tell me the truth? Thanks!

Cheers,

Wu Shu
