Within the kernel right (VMCALL is only usable in ring 1).

Yup.

Is it terribly important to be able to pass through the syscall arguments in registers verses packing them in a data structure and passing a pointer to that structure?

An arg block would be fine, too.

Okay, then you should be pretty well insulated against the changing hypercall stuff since you only need one hypercall NR and can use a one argument hypercall.
