Subject: [PATCH v5 3/4] tools headers: Update the linux/unaligned.h copy with the kernel sources
Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2025 13:51:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251016205126.2882625-4-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251016205126.2882625-1-irogers@google.com>

To pick up the changes in:

  vdso: Switch get/put unaligned from packed struct to memcpy

As the code is dependent on __unqual_scalar_typeof, update the tools
version of compiler_types.h to include this.
