Currently, the structure vcpu_guest_core_regs is part of the public API.
This implies that any change in the structure should be backward
compatible.
However, the structure is only needed by the tools and Xen. It is also
not expected to be ever used outside of that context. So we could save us
some headache by only declaring the structure for Xen and tools.

This is a follow-up of the discussion [1].
As this is now Xen and tools only, I am wondering whether the check on
GNU_C is still necessary. I am happy to send a follow-up patch (or fold
in this one) if it can be removed.

I think this should be dropped if it can be without breaking any
part of the build.

If I was the maintainer of this code, I'd ask for the struct declaration
to be moved (into the existing #if) rather than adding a 2nd #if.

This is because all the tools are part of xen.git, right?

s/2nd/3rd/ ;)
The reason I haven't done that is git will generate a completely
unrelated diff. So it makes quite difficult to understand the purpose of
the patch.

Right - no-one else is supposed to define __XEN_TOOLS__, or
if anyone does, they're on their own.

Well, as said - you're the maintainer. I wouldn't be bothered overly
much by a strange diff that might result.

Thanks for the information. I will do a full build check.

I will wait on Stefano's input.

Yes, please follow Jan's advice, thanks.

I will do a full build check. I thought about this again, long term there are an attempt to build xen with other compiler not necessarily supporting GNU C extension. While this would probably not be the only place that need to be reworked, we would have to revert part of this change. So I will not drop the #ifdef here. I will resend the patch next week to give some time for more feedback.

So I will not drop the #ifdef here. Well, I don't know how it is for Arm, but on x86 we actually use the "extended" naming quite extensively, so building with a compiler that doesn't support this extension is not really an option there.

For the Arm, I think only cpu_user_regs is using "extended" naming. It should be possible to remove it without too much trouble here. @Artem, is there any restriction to use anonymous union in functional safety?
