At some point during pKVM development, we used that to notify the VMM about memory being shared back from the guest but we eventually dropped it as the notification to userspace ended up not being needed: https://android-kvm.googlesource.com/linux/+/dbd2861832dfc4c8a3103214b3c212ee7ace1c44%5E%21/ https://android-kvm.googlesource.com/linux/+/2a3afc6da99c0e0cb62be1687153ee572903aa80%5E%21/ I'm not saying that what we did was necessarily better, but it seems a bit simpler and I figured it might be useful to point you to it.
