Subject: [PATCH 1/1 fyi] tools headers UAPI: Sync x86's asm/kvm.h with the kernel sources
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2026 15:50:44 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <abr0BF9jG3NRFJEP@x1> (raw)
tldr; Just FYI, I'm carrying this on the perf tools tree.
Full explanation:
There used to be no copies, with tools/ code using kernel headers
directly. From time to time tools/perf/ broke due to legitimate kernel
hacking. At some point Linus complained about such direct usage. Then we
adopted the current model.
See further details at:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/tools/include/uapi/README
To pick the changes in:
e2ffe85b6d2bb778 ("KVM: x86: Introduce KVM_X86_QUIRK_VMCS12_ALLOW_FREEZE_IN_SMM")
That just rebuilds kvm-stat.c on x86, no change in functionality.
This silences these perf build warning:
Warning: Kernel ABI header differences:
diff -u tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h
Please see tools/include/uapi/README for further details.
