Callback functions
| EVT_VMB_CHANNEL_CLOSED The EvtVmbChannelClosed callback function is invoked when the client endpoint in the guest virtual machine closes a channel by using the VmbChannelDisable function, or the opposite endpoint rescinds or closes the channel. |
| EVT_VMB_CHANNEL_OPENED The EvtVmbChannelOpened callback function is invoked when the client endpoint in the guest virtual machine opens a channel which has been offered to it. |
