Re: [PATCH v4 1/2] Interface for grant copy operation in libs.

[Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com>]

The code looks ok. I have two minor suggestions below.

I would suggest changing the subject line to:

  libs/gnttab: introduce grant copy interface

I should resubmit that one soon.

Normally for a single statement you don't need {} around it.

No need to resubmit just because of this patch. I can handle the subject
line change,  fix up the style issue and change the comment according to
David's suggestion while committing if you don't object to any of them.

I won't commit this patch right away though. I will wait until the QEMU
patch is acked because I would avoid committing things that have no
users.

If you end up submitting another version you can make those changes
yourself.


Wei.
