The monitor / event code looks fine, but I'm not sure about
hvm_event_type / hvm_monitor_event(). Presumably even a CR3 write event
coming from a HVM guest is an event, and HVM-related, hence a hvm_event
- i.e. the generic nature of the name is a bit confusing to me. Maybe
not so to other reviewers?


Thanks,
