        Hello,

        what I recommend is to move *ALL* registers defines out of 
genesys_low.h to
their corresponding low level files since they are different. Only use them in 
genesys_gl841.c or genesys_gl646.c . If a functions in genesys.c need some
of them, we should use a helper function that calls one specialized function.

        For instance I'll turn code like:

        if (genesys_read_reg_from_set (reg, 0x04) & REG04_FILTER)

        into:

        reg04 = genesys_read_reg_from_set (reg, 0x04);
        if (genesys_filter_bit(dev, reg04))

        with

        int genesys_filter_bit(Genesys_Device *dev, SANE_Byte)
        {
                switch(dev->model->asic_type)
                {
                        case GENESYS_GL646:
                                return gl646_filter_bit(dev,reg);
                        case GENESYS_GL841:
                                return gl841_filter_bit(dev,reg);
                }
        }

        right define would be used in gl646_filter_bit/gl841_filter_bit .

        Or be even better (register address could be different):

        into:

        if (genesys_filter_bit (dev, reg, 0x04))

        with:
        SANE_Byte genesys_filter_bit(Genesys_Device *dev,
                                     Genesys_Register_Set *reg,
                                     SANE_Byte addr)
        {
                switch(dev->model->asic_type)
                {
                        case GENESYS_GL646:
                                return gl646_filter_bit(dev,reg);
                        case GENESYS_GL841:
                                return gl841_filter_bit(dev,reg);
                }
        }

        glXXX_filter_bit will do the register search and test bit in a specific 
way.


        There are quite a few functions like that to add. 

Regards,
        Stef
