Shahaf, will you submit a v2 with this, or should i do it? I think it should be just a matter of #ifndef VFIO_PRESENT //define vfio_device_info struct #endif - this should take care of the problem of hiding the function definitions. FreeBSD will also need to be adjusted to remove dummy prototypes. -- Thanks, Anatoly
