[PATCH] UAPI: Strip the _UAPI prefix from header guards during header installation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Strip the _UAPI prefix from header guards during header installation so that
any userspace dependencies aren't affected.  glibc, for example, checks for
linux/types.h, linux/kernel.h, linux/compiler.h and linux/list.h by their
guards - though the last two aren't actually exported.
