tools headers: Synchronize linux/build_bug.h with the kernel sources

2026-03-22T21:34:39+00:00

To pick up the changes in:

  6ffd853b0b10e1e2 ("build_bug.h: correct function parameters names in kernel-doc")

That just add some comments, addressing this perf tools build warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header differences:
    diff -u tools/include/linux/build_bug.h include/linux/build_bug.h

Please take a look at tools/include/uapi/README for further info on this
synchronization process.

tools headers UAPI: Sync linux/kvm.h with the kernel sources

2026-03-22T21:31:54+00:00

To pick the changes in:

  da142f3d373a6dda ("KVM: Remove subtle "struct kvm_stats_desc" pseudo-overlay")

That just rebuilds perf, as these patches don't add any new KVM ioctl to
be harvested for the 'perf trace' ioctl syscall argument beautifiers.

This addresses this perf build warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header differences:
    diff -u tools/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h include/uapi/linux/kvm.h

Please see tools/include/uapi/README for further details.

   pre-existing processes

 - Fix rust cross compilation

 - hashmap__new() error pointer return handling fixes

 - Fix off-by-one bug in outside of functions check on the disasm code

 - Update header copies of kernel headers, including prctl.h, mount.h,
   fs.h, irq_vectors.h, perf_event.h, gfp_types.h, kvm.h, cpufeatures.h
   msr-index.h, also the syscall tables files that introduced the
   'rseq_slice_yield' syscall

 - Finish removal of ETM_OPT_* on the ARM coresight support, needed to
   sync the coresight-pmu.h header with the kernel sources

 - Make in-target rule robust against too long argument error

tools headers: Update the syscall tables and unistd.h, to support the new 'rseq_slice_yield' syscall

2026-03-05T20:20:23+00:00

Picking up the changes from these csets:

  2153b2e8917b73e9 ("sparc: Add architecture support for clone3")
  99d2592023e5d0a3 ("rseq: Implement sys_rseq_slice_yield()")
  4ac286c4a8d904c8 ("s390/syscalls: Switch to generic system call table generation")

This makes 'perf trace' support it, now its possible, for instance, to
do:

  # perf trace -e rseq_slice_yield --max-stack=16

Here is an example with the 'sendmmsg' syscall:

  root@x1:~# perf trace -e sendmmsg --max-stack 16 --max-events=1
       0.000 ( 0.062 ms): dbus-broker/1012 sendmmsg(fd: 150, mmsg: 0x7ffef57cca50, vlen: 1, flags: DONTWAIT|NOSIGNAL) = 1

                                         syscall_exit_to_user_mode_prepare ([kernel.kallsyms])

  root@x1:~#

backtrace of at most 16 entries.

tools headers UAPI: Sync linux/kvm.h with the kernel sources

2026-03-04T15:32:19+00:00

To pick the changes in:

  f7ab71f178d56447 ("KVM: s390: Add explicit padding to struct kvm_s390_keyop")
  0ee4ddc1647b8b3b ("KVM: s390: Storage key manipulation IOCTL")
  fa9893fadbc245e1 ("KVM: Introduce KVM_EXIT_SNP_REQ_CERTS for SNP certificate-fetching")
  f174a9ffcd48d78a ("KVM: arm64: Add exit to userspace on {LD,ST}64B* outside of memslots")

That just rebuilds perf, as these patches add just one new KVM ioctl,
but for S390, that is not being considered by tools/perf/trace/beauty/kvm_ioctl.sh
so far.

This addresses this perf build warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header differences:
    diff -u tools/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h include/uapi/linux/kvm.h
