There are 2 eventfds for one virtqueue, one is for kick and the other is for notify. eventfd used for kick is associated with a PIO/MMIO region. eventfd used for notify is associated with a MSIx/INTx. The eventfd pair is registered to VHM thru VHM char dev. VHM irqfd currently only support MSIx. If INTx is used, vhost proxy uses mevent to poll the call fd from vhost then inject interrupt to guest.
