+/**
+ * Current version of the IOMMU user API. This is intended for query
+ * between user and kernel to determine compatible data structures.
+ *
+ * Having a single UAPI version to govern the user-kernel data structures
+ * makes compatibility check straightforward. On the contrary, supporting
+ * combinations of multiple versions of the data can be a nightmare.
+ *
+ * UAPI version can be bumped up with the following rules:
+ * 1. All data structures passed between user and kernel space share
+ *    the same version number. i.e. any extension to to any structure
+ *    results in version bump up.
+ *
+ * 2. Data structures are open to extension but closed to modification.
+ *    New fields must be added at the end of each data structure with
+ *    64bit alignment. Flag bits can be added without size change but
+ *    existing ones cannot be altered.
+ *
+ * 3. Versions are backward compatible.
+ *
+ * 4. Version to size lookup is supported by kernel internal API for each
+ *    API function type. @version is mandatory for new data structures
+ *    and must be at the beginning with type of __u32.
