/*P:500
 * Just as userspace programs request kernel operations through a system
 * call, the Guest requests Host operations through a "hypercall".  You might
 * notice this nomenclature doesn't really follow any logic, but the name has
 * been around for long enough that we're stuck with it.  As you'd expect, this
 * code is basically a one big switch statement.
