Specifically, kernel_matches_previous_tools_state() only matches when the current kernel_blob hash previously existed in tools_path's history, which stops matching as soon as kernel_path receives any new commit after sync_point. Meanwhile, find_kernel_commits() only uses the commits on tools_path in ${sync_point}..HEAD to filter out commits that touched both files, without checking for commits that modified tools_path alone. This happens in commit 78affd0f60ae ("tools arch x86: Sync the msr-index.h copy with the kernel sources") in this series. Commit 7846bf499da3 ("tools headers: Sync x86 headers with kernel sources") had added seven PEBS vector definitions to tools/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h ahead of the kernel, and arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h later received commit ac5cc691eb4a ("x86/thermal: Add bit definitions for Intel Directed Package Thermal Interrupt") after their common sync point 369e91bd201d. Running sync-headers.sh then overwrote tools/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h with arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h, silently deleting those definitions in commit 78affd0f60ae: tools/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h: #define ARCH_PEBS_LBR_SHIFT 40 #define ARCH_PEBS_LBR (0x3ull << ARCH_PEBS_LBR_SHIFT) #define ARCH_PEBS_VECR_XMM BIT_ULL(49) -#define ARCH_PEBS_VECR_YMMH BIT_ULL(50) -#define ARCH_PEBS_VECR_EGPRS BIT_ULL(51) -#define ARCH_PEBS_VECR_OPMASK BIT_ULL(53) -#define ARCH_PEBS_VECR_ZMMH BIT_ULL(54) -#define ARCH_PEBS_VECR_H16ZMM BIT_ULL(55) -#define ARCH_PEBS_VECR_EXT_SHIFT 49 -#define ARCH_PEBS_VECR_EXT (0x7full << ARCH_PEBS_VECR_EXT_SHIFT) #define ARCH_PEBS_GPR BIT_ULL(61) Should process_header() and process_group() check whether tools_path has commits in ${sync_point}..HEAD that are not in kernel_path's history and skip or warn instead of overwriting tools_path?

In tools/perf/trace/beauty/Build, the rule for syscalltbl.sh passes $@ as a second positional argument rather than redirecting stdout with > $@: $(syscall_array): $(syscall_tbl) $(syscall_tbl_data) $(call rule_mkdir) $(Q)$(call echo-cmd,gen)$(SHELL) '$(syscall_tbl)' $(srctree)/tools $@ And tools/perf/trace/beauty/syscalltbl.sh requires two positional arguments and writes its generated table to the second argument: if [ $# -ne 2 ]; then usage fi tools_dir=3D$1 outfile=3D$2 Because setup_beauty_args() skips $@, BEAUTY_SCRIPT_ARGS["syscalltbl.sh"] only receives "$KERNEL_DIR/tools". When run_beauty_pass() calls run_beauty_script() for syscalltbl.sh, syscalltbl.sh exits with status 1 in usage(), and run_beauty_script() suppresses stderr and the exit status, leaving both the before and after files empty so syscall table changes are never detected.
