 /*G:030
  * But first, how does our Guest contact the Host to ask for privileged
  * operations?  There are two ways: the direct way is to make a "hypercall",
  * to make requests of the Host Itself.
  *
- * We use the KVM hypercall mechanism, though completely different hypercall
- * numbers. Seventeen hypercalls are available: the hypercall number is put in
- * the %eax register, and the arguments (when required) are placed in %ebx,
- * %ecx, %edx and %esi.  If a return value makes sense, it's returned in %eax.
+ * Our hypercall mechanism uses the highest unused trap code (traps 32 and
+ * above are used by real hardware interrupts).  Seventeen hypercalls are
+ * available: the hypercall number is put in the %eax register, and the
+ * arguments (when required) are placed in %ebx, %ecx, %edx and %esi.
+ * If a return value makes sense, it's returned in %eax.
  *
  * Grossly invalid calls result in Sudden Death at the hands of the vengeful
  * Host, rather than returning failure.  This reflects Winston Churchill's
  * definition of a gentleman: "someone who is only rude intentionally".
