tools include: Add headers to make tools builds more hermetic

2025-10-02T18:13:19+00:00

tools/lib/bpf/netlink.c depends on rtnetlink.h and genetlink.h (via nlattr.h) which then depends on if_addr.h. tools/bpf/bpftool/link.c depends on netfilter_arp.h which then depends on netfilter.h. Update check-headers.sh to keep these in sync. Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: André Almeida Cc: Daniel Borkmann Cc: Darren Hart Cc: David S.

tools include: Replace tools linux/gfp_types.h with kernel version

2025-10-02T18:11:03+00:00

Previously the header gfp_types.h in tools points to the gfp_types.h in include/linux. This is a problem for tools like perf, since the tools header is supposed to be independent of the kernel headers. Therefore this patch copies the kernel header to the tools header and adds a header check.

tools headers: Remove unused arm32 asm/kvm.h copy

2025-09-11T19:58:21+00:00

arm32 KVM was removed in commit 541ad0150ca4 ("arm: Remove 32bit KVM host support"). None of the kvm selftests are compiled for arm32 and it's not indirectly included from anywhere either, so delete it.

tools headers: Remove unused kvm_perf.h copies

2025-09-11T19:57:59+00:00

These have been unused since commit 162607ea20fa ("perf kvm/{x86,s390}: Remove dependency on uapi/kvm_perf.h") in favour of dynamic discovery. Remove the unused headers to reduce consistency checking overhead and noise.

perf tools: Remove excess variable declarations

2025-06-24T18:06:02+00:00

I thought array declaration might be done in the same line as assigning the value to it. Hence, getting rid of extra steps of reiterating the array name. Signed-off-by: Bhaskar Chowdhury Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250611100256.31089-1-unixbhaskar@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim

To pick up the changes from: 861c6b1185fbb2e3 ("x86/platform/amd: Add standard header guards to ") A small change to tools/perf/check-headers.sh was made to cope with the move of this header done in: 3846389c03a85188 ("x86/platform/amd: Move the header to ") That don't result in any changes in the tools, just address this perf build warning: Warning: Kernel ABI header differences: diff -u tools/arch/x86/include/asm/amd/ibs.h arch/x86/include/asm/amd/ibs.h Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Ian Rogers Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: James Clark Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Kan Liang Cc: Namhyung Kim Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/aEtCi0pup5FEwnzn@x1 Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

x86/cpufeatures: Remove {disabled,required}-features.h

2025-03-19T10:15:12+00:00

The functionalities of {disabled,required}-features.h have been replaced with the auto-generated generated/ header. Thus they are no longer needed and can be removed. None of the macros defined in {disabled,required}-features.h is used in tools, delete them too.
