I have Ingo's network PV hypercalls to commit in my piplien.
Till then we can just add the test hypercall:
case __NR_hypercall_test:
printk(KERN_DEBUG "%s __NR_hypercall_test\n",
__FUNCTION__);
ret = 0x5a5a;
break;
default:
BUG();

Is it a good idea to call BUG() on an undefined hypercall? I assume its
better to inform the guest that is has issued an illegal call...


The code returns -KVM_EINVAL if the hypercall is not handled (and BUG() on the host as a response to something controlled by a guest is not a good idea).
