Hi Konrad,

I'm not sure to understand what you are asking.

Xen takes advantage of the virtual interrupt controller to notify the 
guest of new pending event channels.

The life cycle (mask/eoi) of the interrupt associated to the 
notification is handled by the interrupt controller. The interrupt can't 
be re-entrant but we may receive spurious notification.

AFAIK, there is no specific semantics. Stefano, can you confirm it?

Regards,
