I just had a brainwave: rather than making these complicated structure variants, why not just do this (just thrown together, I didn't look at alignment etc.): struct imr_map_desc { /* bitmask of the mapping type (see below) */ __u32 type; /* total data size */ __u32 size; /* number of vertices */ __u32 vertices; /* rectangular mesh size (ignored for triangles) */ __u16 rows, columns; /* auto-generated mesh parameters (ignored if not auto-generated) */ __u16 x0, y0, dx, dy; /* data user-pointer */ __u64 src_coords; __u64 dst_coords; __u64 luma_corr; __u64 chroma_corr; } __attribute__((packed)); Just leave the corresponding data pointer 0 when not needed, and otherwise these data pointers point to a struct imr_coord, imr_luma_corr or imr_chroma_corr arrays. Much simpler and still memory efficient. BTW, I prefer either _corr or _correction over _correct. 'correct' is confusing since it is also a normal english word and it is not obvious that it is an abbreviation for 'correction'.
