[PATCH FYI 1/1] tools headers UAPI: Sync linux/fscrypt.h with the kernel sources

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Wed Aug 17 2022 - 08:58:37 EST


tldr; Just FYI, I'm carrying this on the perf tools tree.

- Arnaldo

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.

The way these headers are used in perf are not restricted to just
including them to compile something.

There are sometimes used in scripts that convert defines into string
tables, etc, so some change may break one of these scripts, or new MSRs
may use some different #define pattern, etc.

E.g.:

$ ls -1 tools/perf/trace/beauty/*.sh | head -5
tools/perf/trace/beauty/arch_errno_names.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/drm_ioctl.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/fadvise.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/fsconfig.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/fsmount.sh
$
$ tools/perf/trace/beauty/fadvise.sh
static const char *fadvise_advices[] = {
[0] = "NORMAL",
[1] = "RANDOM",
[2] = "SEQUENTIAL",
[3] = "WILLNEED",
[4] = "DONTNEED",
[5] = "NOREUSE",
};
$
$ tools/perf/trace/beauty/sync_file_range.sh
static const char *sync_file_range_flags[] = {
[ilog2(1) + 1] = "WAIT_BEFORE",
[ilog2(2) + 1] = "WRITE",
[ilog2(4) + 1] = "WAIT_AFTER",
};

The tools/perf/check-headers.sh script, part of the tools/ build
process, points out changes in the original files.

So its important not to touch the copies in tools/ when doing changes in
the original kernel headers, that will be done later, when
check-headers.sh inform about the change to the perf tools hackers.

To pick the changes from:

6b2a51ff03bf0c54 ("fscrypt: Add HCTR2 support for filename encryption")

That don't result in any changes in tooling, just causes this to be
rebuilt:

CC /tmp/build/perf-urgent/trace/beauty/sync_file_range.o
LD /tmp/build/perf-urgent/trace/beauty/perf-in.o

addressing this perf build warning:
