/*
* When #include'ing this header, you need to provide the following
* declaration upfront:
* - standard integers types (uint8_t, uint16_t, etc)
* They are provided by stdint.h of the standard headers.
*
* In addition, if you intend to use the FLEX macros, you also need to
* provide the following, before invoking the FLEX macros:
* - size_t
* - memcpy
* - grant_ref_t
* These declarations are provided by string.h of the standard headers,
* and grant_table.h from the Xen public headers.

/*
* Macros to make the correct C datatypes for a new kind of ring.
*
* To make a new ring datatype, you need to have two message structures,
* let's say request_t, and response_t already defined.
*
* In a header where you want the ring datatype declared, you then do:
*
* DEFINE_RING_TYPES(mytag, request_t, response_t);
*
* These expand out to give you a set of types, as you can see below.
* The most important of these are:
*
* mytag_sring_t - The shared ring.
* mytag_front_ring_t - The 'front' half of the ring.
* mytag_back_ring_t - The 'back' half of the ring.
*
* To initialize a ring in your code you need to know the location and size
* of the shared memory area (PAGE_SIZE, for instance). To initialise
* the front half:
*
* mytag_front_ring_t ring;
* XEN_FRONT_RING_INIT(&ring, (mytag_sring_t *)shared_page, PAGE_SIZE);
*
* Initializing the back follows similarly (note that only the front
* initializes the shared ring):
*
* mytag_back_ring_t back_ring;
* BACK_RING_INIT(&back_ring, (mytag_sring_t *)shared_page, PAGE_SIZE);

- Immediate include surface: `xen/interface/grant_table.h`.
- Atlas domain: Repository Root And Misc / include.
- Implementation status: source implementation candidate.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
