OK, the initial interface is without v2 suffixes. It was added in order to reminder user the interfaces are only available for grant table v2. But I am fine to remove it, and following ops fn pointers are better. > Any reason not to route these via the ops table for consistency with all > the other ops? Then your availability check becomes a test for NULL fn > pointer rather than a specific version. Ok, it is good. How about following implements? gnttab_v1_ops = { ... .access_subpage = NULL; .access_ref_subpage = NULL; .access_trans = NULL; .access_ref_trans = NULL; } gnttab_v2_ops = { ... .access_subpage = access_subpage_v2; .access_ref_subpage = access_ref_subpage_v2; .access_trans = access_trans_v2; .access_ref_trans = access_ref_trans_v2; } gnttab_request_version() { ..... if(v2) gnttab_interface = &gnttab_v2_ops; else gnttab_interface = &gnttab_v1_ops; ..... } int gnttab_grant_foreign_access_subpage() { if(gnttab_interface->access_subpage != NULL) return gnttab_interface->access_subpage; return Esomething; } Same operations for access_ref_subpage, access_trans and access_ref_trans. bool gnttab_subpage_available() { return (gnttab_interface->access_subpage != NULL); } bool gnttab_subpage_available() { return (gnttab_interface->access_trans != NULL); } Thanks Annie
