Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] perf build: Add -fms-extensions for GEN_VMLINUX_H=1
Date: Sun, 3 May 2026 23:27:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260504062758.92001-2-namhyung@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260504062758.92001-1-namhyung@kernel.org>
On my system, `make GEN_VMLINUX_H=1` fails with a lot of error messages
like below:
./util/bpf_skel/vmlinux.h:134488:4: error: declaration does not declare anything [-Werror,-Wmissing-declarations]
134488 | struct freelist_counters;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
make[2]: *** [Makefile.perf:1249: linux/tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/.tmp/lock_contention.bpf.o] Error 1
I saw commit 835a50753579a ("selftests/bpf: Add -fms-extensions to bpf
build flags") also added the same flags to bpf programs.
