Kind of, yeah, but not necessarily.

The interrupt information is passed over buffers shared between host and guest.
Now the guest may process the buffers when it receives a notification from the
host, that will be at downpath of an interrupt for virtio,mmio. Or the guest may
poll on the virtqueue and process any buffers as soon as they are made
available, no interrupts then.
