Suggest a more descriptive name, or, if you can't think of any, a
descriptive comment.
Oh, see comments on fbif.h below.

Tab, please, if it's not too much trouble. Mixing tabs and spaces for

Ditto.

Please memset(&event, 0, sizeof(event))
Makes backward-compatible evolution of the protocol so much easier,
and removes all doubts about leaking potentially sensitive bits.

This breaks if we ever support frontends without feature-update.
Worth a comment.

I'm not entirely happy with the protocol defined here.
1. Encoding of idleness
If idleness is and will remain boolean, I'd rather encode it the
old-fashioned C way as zero / non-zero, because that removes all
doubt on how to interpret funny status values.
If you want to reserve funny status values for future extensions of
the notion "idleness", then you need to document that here, along
with what frontends should do for values they don't know.
2. Names
If the message is intended just for reporting idleness, it should
be called something like BACKEND_IDLE instead of STATUS.
If it is meant to be extensible for reporting status other than
idleness, the member status isn't named properly. If the member
holds just idleness, it should be named is_idle (if yes/no),
idleness (if more than two values), or something like that. If
idleness is yes/no, you could also encode it as a bit in a status
word instead.
Aside: going through the ring requires us to write down the protocol
here. You didn't (have to) do that when you went through xenstore.
Guess what I like better :)
