Subject: [PATCH] tools/include/linux/bitops.h: undef PAGE_SIZE after including limits.h
Date: Fri,  8 May 2026 04:48:55 +0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260507234854.273536-2-hisamshar@gmail.com> (raw)

musl libc defines PAGE_SIZE as a signed int in <limits.h>
under _GNU_SOURCE, conflicting with kernel headers that
require an unsigned 64-bit definition:

  include/x86/processor.h:372:9: warning: 'PAGE_SIZE' redefined
  /usr/include/x86_64-linux-musl/limits.h:97:9: note: this is the
  location of the previous definition

Undefine PAGE_SIZE immediately after the #include <limits.h> to
prevent musl's definition from leaking into kernel headers. This
is a no-op on glibc, which does not define PAGE_SIZE in <limits.h>.
