When building bpf selftests on arm64, the following error will occur:

progs/loop2.c:20:7: error: incomplete definition of type 'struct
user_pt_regs'

Some archs, like arm64 and riscv, use userspace pt_regs in
bpf_tracing.h, which causes build failure when bpf prog use
macro in bpf_tracing.h. So let's use vmlinux.h directly.

We could probably also extend bpf_tracing.h to work with
kernel-defined pt_regs, just like we do for x86 (see __KERNEL__ and
__VMLINUX_H__ checks). It's more work, but will benefit other end
users, not just selftests.

It might change a lot. We can use header file directory generated by
"make headers_install" to fix it.

We don't have dependency on "make headers_install" and I'd rather not
add it.

What do you mean by "change a lot"?

Maybe I misunderstood your advice. Your suggestion might be to extend
bpf_tracing.h to kernel-space pt_regs, while some archs, like arm64,

yes

only support user-space. So the patch might be like this:

diff --git a/tools/lib/bpf/bpf_tracing.h b/tools/lib/bpf/bpf_tracing.h

Please ignore the last reply. User-space pt_regs of arm64/s390 is the
first part of the kernel-space's, it should has covered both kernel and
userspace.

Alright, so is there still a problem or not? Looking at the definition
of struct pt_regs for arm64, just casting struct pt_regs to struct
user_pt_regs will indeed just work. So in that case, what was your
original issue?

Thanks for your reply. The original issue is, when arm64 bpf selftests cross compiling in x86_64 host, clang cannot find the arch specific uapi ptrace.h, and then the above error occur. Of course it works when compiling in arm64 host for it owns the corresponding uapi ptrace.h. So my suggestion is to add arch specific use header file directory generated by "make headers_install" for the cross compiling issue.
