Users of kernel header files would be happier if they did not contain
kernel specific parts and would contain #include statements for all
other header files that they depend on, and in general would compile.
For each header file exported to userspace, the script creates
a simple .c file which just includes the header file. Then it
tries to compile it and reports results.
Kernel headers depend on GCC headers so their path is included in
the compiler command line.
Some gcc and kernel headers depend on libc headers so make them available
by copying from the running system. The /usr/include location can not be
used directly since it may contain an older version of the kernel headers.
Execute the script like this on x86 GNU/Linux machine with GCC headers in
/usr/lib/gcc/i586-linux-gnu/4.9/include and libc headers in /usr/include:
$ make headers_install
$ cd usr/include
$ ../../scripts/headers_compile_test.sh
Example statistics from 3.15.9 kernel:
131 files failed the compile test.
597 files passed the compile test.
