1. Did you take a look at logging information here: 
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/VBoxLogging (see Ring-0 logging)?

2. From a quick glance, the guest additions part of the code is specific 
to Windows, on the host side it is platform agnostic (not enabled for 
64-bit darwin hosts though). The guest addition side has some 
compile-time defines that only register the service hooks for Windows 
(VBoxService.cpp).

Ram.
