Re: [Xen-devel] Re: [PATCH] Fix __XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION__ old config bre

I'm afraid that I know too little about xen to say something about how
multiple interface versions are supposed to work, but I think your

good.

My main concern was that the code didn't build with my old config
file, and the error message produced by the c-compiler was far from
user friendly. If the kernel build should fail then I would prefer
some see some kind of #error message.

Thanks!

Yes, that would be nice and preferably generated from within xen-compat.h so the check is not specific to Linux. But I'm not sure whether it's possible to detect an empty macro definition from CPP?
