=============================
The Jailhouse hypervisor provides two kinds of interfaces to interact with its
-cells during runtime. One is a set of hypercalls cells can synchronously invoke
-by executing architecture specific instructions that switch to hypervisor mode.
-The other interface consists of variables located in a per-cell memory region
-that is shared between hypervisor and that particular cell.

Hypercalls
Note: The hypervisor does not request shutdown permission from a cell if that
cell has the "Unmanaged Exit" flag set in its configuration (see also
- configuration-format.txt) or if the cell status is set to "Shut Down" or
+ configuration-format.txt) or if the cell state is set to "Shut Down" or
"Failed" (see below).
