This means that inside of the kernel, we get linux/signal.h -> uapi/linux/signal.h -> asm/signal.h -> uapi/asm/signal.h while in the installed headers we just get linux/signal.h -> asm/signal.h This all looks right to me: user space only sees the exported portions under the traditional names, while the kernel sees both the kernel-side and user-side definitions from the same path.
