SMCs definitely yes.

Interface was designed in that way and I don't know if people are using
it or not.

Not sure if Xen is blocking SMCs. I know we have discussed it but not
sure if this is enabled by default or only for certain configurations.
Also not sure if xen contains handler for hvc.
Edgar: Do you know?

Thanks,
