+:Architecture: x86
+:Status: active
+:Purpose: To enable communication between a guest agent and a VMI application
+
+Usage:
+
+An event will be sent to the VMI application (see kvmi.rst) if the following
+registers, which differ between 32bit and 64bit, have the following values:
+
+       ========    =====     =====
+       32bit       64bit     value
+       ========    =====     =====
+       ebx (a0)    rdi       KVM_HC_XEN_HVM_OP_GUEST_REQUEST_VM_EVENT
+       ecx (a1)    rsi       0
+       ========    =====     =====
+
+This specification copies Xen's { __HYPERVISOR_hvm_op,
+HVMOP_guest_request_vm_event } hypercall and can originate from kernel or
+userspace.
+
+It returns 0 if successful, or a negative POSIX.1 error code if it fails. The
+absence of an active VMI application is not signaled in any way.
+
+The following registers are clobbered:
+
+  * 32bit: edx, esi, edi, ebp
+  * 64bit: rdx, r10, r8, r9
+
+In particular, for KVM_HC_XEN_HVM_OP_GUEST_REQUEST_VM_EVENT, the last two
+registers can be poisoned deliberately and cannot be used for passing
+information.

+This event is sent on a specific user hypercall when the introspection has
+been enabled for this event (see *KVMI_VCPU_CONTROL_EVENTS*).
+
+The hypercall number must be ``KVM_HC_XEN_HVM_OP`` with the
+``KVM_HC_XEN_HVM_OP_GUEST_REQUEST_VM_EVENT`` sub-function
+(see hypercalls.rst).
+
+It is used by the code residing inside the introspected guest to call the
+introspection tool and to report certain details about its operation. For
+example, a classic antimalware remediation tool can report what it has
+found during a scan.
+
+The most useful registers describing the vCPU state can be read from
+``kvmi_vcpu_event.arch.regs``.
