linux-stable.git/tools/include/uapi/linux/tc_act, branch linux-5.0.y Linux kernel stable tree tools/bpftool: copy a few net uapi headers to tools directory 2018-11-09T07:18:31+00:00 Yonghong Song yhs@fb.com 2018-11-08T03:55:36+00:00 49a249c387268882e8393dd1fafc51e3b21cb7a2 Commit f6f3bac08ff9 ("tools/bpf: bpftool: add net support") added certain networking support to bpftool.

This patch fixed the issue by copying linux/tc_act/tc_bpf.h and linux/pkt_cls.h from kernel include/uapi directory to tools/include/uapi directory so building the bpftool does not depend on host system for these files.

Commit f6f3bac08ff9 ("tools/bpf: bpftool: add net support")
added certain networking support to bpftool.
The implementation relies on a relatively recent uapi header file
linux/tc_act/tc_bpf.h on the host which contains the marco
definition of TCA_ACT_BPF_ID.

Unfortunately, this is not the case for all distributions.
See the email message below where rhel-7.2 does not have
an up-to-date linux/tc_act/tc_bpf.h.

Further investigation found that linux/pkt_cls.h is also needed for macro
TCA_BPF_TAG.

This patch fixed the issue by copying linux/tc_act/tc_bpf.h
and linux/pkt_cls.h from kernel include/uapi directory to
tools/include/uapi directory so building the bpftool does not depend
on host system for these files.
