+/*
+ * Compatibility interface for userspace libc header coordination:
+ *
+ * Define compatibility macros that are used to control the inclusion or
+ * exclusion of UAPI structures and definitions in coordination with another
+ * userspace C library.
+ *
+ * This header is intended to solve the problem of UAPI definitions that
+ * conflict with userspace definitions. If a UAPI header has such conflicting
+ * definitions then the solution is as follows:
+ *
+ * * Synchronize the UAPI header and the libc headers so either one can be
+ * used and such that the ABI is preserved. If this is not possible then
+ * no simple compatibility interface exists (you need to write translating
+ * wrappers and rename things) and you can't use this interface.
+ *
+ * Then follow this process:
+ *
+ * (a) Include libc-compat.h in the UAPI header.
+ * e.g. #include <linux/libc-compat.h>
+ * This include must be as early as possible.
+ *
+ * (b) In libc-compat.h add enough code to detect that the comflicting
+ * userspace libc header has been included first.
+ *
+ * (c) If the userspace libc header has been included first define a set of
+ * guard macros of the form __UAPI_DEF_FOO and set their values to 1, else
+ * set their values to 0.
+ *
+ * (d) Back in the UAPI header with the conflicting definitions, guard the
+ * definitions with:
+ * #if __UAPI_DEF_FOO
+ * ...
+ * #endif
+ *
+ * This fixes the situation where the linux headers are included *after* the
+ * libc headers. To fix the problem with the inclusion in the other order the
+ * userspace libc headers must be fixed like this:
+ *
+ * * For all definitions that conflict with kernel definitions wrap those
+ * defines in the following:
+ * #if !__UAPI_DEF_FOO
+ * ...
+ * #endif
+ *
+ * This prevents the redefinition of a construct already defined by the kernel.
