Subject: [PATCH 1/1] tools headers svm: Sync svm headers with the kernel sources
Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2025 12:22:08 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <aQjIoIDY94n336Hw@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:
b8c3c9f5d0505905 ("x86/apic: Initialize Secure AVIC APIC backing page")
That triggers:
CC /tmp/build/perf-tools/arch/x86/util/kvm-stat.o
LD /tmp/build/perf-tools/arch/x86/util/perf-util-in.o
LD /tmp/build/perf-tools/arch/x86/perf-util-in.o
LD /tmp/build/perf-tools/arch/perf-util-in.o
LD /tmp/build/perf-tools/perf-util-in.o
AR /tmp/build/perf-tools/libperf-util.a
LINK /tmp/build/perf-tools/perf
But this time causes no changes in tooling results, as the introduced
SVM_VMGEXIT_SAVIC exit reason wasn't added to SVM_EXIT_REASONS, that is
used in kvm-stat.c.
And addresses this perf build warning:
Warning: Kernel ABI header differences:
diff -u tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/svm.h arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/svm.h
Please see tools/include/uapi/README for further details.
