[PATCH v7 0/8] uapi: export all headers under uapi directories

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

 



Here is the v7 of this series.

Patches #1 and #2 are just cleanup: some exported headers were still under
a non-uapi directory. Patch #3 is a fix to avoid exporting a file that was
not under an uapi directory.
After these three patches, all exported headers are under an uapi directory:
path #4 stops searching files in non uapi directories.
The patch #5 was spotted by code review: there is no in-tree user of this
functionality.
Patch #6 fixes some warnings/errors reported by 0-day tests.
Patches #7 and #8 remove the need to list explicitly headers. Now all files
under an uapi directory are exported.

This series has been tested with a 'make headers_install' on x86 and a
'make headers_install_all'. I've checked the result of both commands.

This patch is built against linus tree. If I must rebase it against the kbuild
tree, just tell me.
