I understand my confusion better. 

cli on linux on xen is this:
HYPERVISOR_shared_info->vcpu_data[0].evtchn_upcall_mask = 1;

That disables all interrupts? I'm confused on that, how does this relate 
to the evtchn_mask? 

For cpu 0 do I need to clear BOTH of these for interrupts to happen, and 
then in the domain itself only mess with the one for vcpu 0? I'm looking 
at linux U kernel code but want to make sure I get this right. Is this 
stuff really firmly tested and laid out or still somewhat tentative due to 
the fact that it's not really tested with vcpu > 0?

thanks

ron
