26  * @section DESCRIPTION
27  *
28  *  Originally borrowed from the Qubes OS Project, http://www.qubes-os.org,
29  *  this code has been substantially rewritten to use the gntdev and gntalloc
30  *  devices instead of raw MFNs and map_foreign_range.
31  *
32  *  This is a library for inter-domain communication.  A standard Xen ring
33  *  buffer is used, with a datagram-based interface built on top.  The grant
34  *  reference and event channels are shared in XenStore under a user-specified
35  *  path.
36  *
37  *  The ring.h macros define an asymmetric interface to a shared data structure
38  *  that assumes all rings reside in a single contiguous memory space. This is
39  *  not suitable for vchan because the interface to the ring is symmetric except
40  *  for the setup. Unlike the producer-consumer rings defined in ring.h, the
41  *  size of the rings used in vchan are determined at execution time instead of
42  *  compile time, so the macros in ring.h cannot be used to access the rings.
