To answer your questions:
 
I'm not totally sure about your application but it seems to me to fall in the category being discussed.
 
Not all of the definitions in ib_types.h are elsewhere.
 
I am working on a patch to get you past this issue.

Does that imply that the definitions in iba/ib_types.h are not expected to be required or used
by user-space applications other than those categories mentioned above? If iba/ib_types.h is
only a legacy header, are the definitions also present in another header file?
