Hi,
 
I was running xenoprof on xen-3.0.4 and see "hypercall" and "hypercall_page" as one of the primary overhead for a benchmark. I am confused about both?  Are they functions ? Does "hypercall" represents all the hypercall or its a function pointer. I am novice to xen. A little explanation will help my understanding.
 
-John
