Is this acceptable? How hard would it be to also support the old interface for the benefit of old kernels and userspaces (e.g. existing distros)? Rather than a _v2 suffix we have in the past renamed the old ones _compat and introduced the new ones, with appropriate use of __XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION__ to paper over things for old users. See __HYPERVISOR_sched_op for example. Ian.
