5 * 1) Real hardware interrupts which occur while we're running the Guest,
6 * 2) Interrupts for virtual devices attached to the Guest, and
7 * 3) Traps and faults from the Guest.
9 * Real hardware interrupts must be delivered to the Host, not the Guest.
10 * Virtual interrupts must be delivered to the Guest, but we make them look
11 * just like real hardware would deliver them. Traps from the Guest can be set
12 * up to go directly back into the Guest, but sometimes the Host wants to see
13 * them first, so we also have a way of "reflecting" them into the Guest as if
14 * they had been delivered to it directly.
