... thinking again, are some of these headers arch-specific (IOW,
generating them per-arch would result in something slightly different)?
Oh wow, yes they are. I'm guilty of x86-centric thinking (again).
hmm, this is going to make it really a lot of trouble to do this
approach. But there's no point in turning back now, so I guess I'd
better fire up the cross-compilers and generate for all the arches.
Cross compilers might not be required.
At least for me, at simple
rm -rf usr/include
export ARCH=s390
make headers
make headers_install
Installed the proper s390 headers, and "usr/include/asm" would contain the s390 specifics.
Yes.
Some scripting would be required to make this much easier to generate+wire up for all archs semi-automatically.
After exploring this, and eventually re-inventing the concept of asm-generic,
I now understand What To Do.
In tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h, we already do have
__NR_mseal ...
Yes, but it doesn't get used in selftests/mm, with the way headers are
set up right now.
Right
...it turns out that the right answer is to simply include asm-generic/unistd.h.
That is the only way to safely use system call numbers across CPU architectures,
and we already have it. So the entire patch simplifies back down to two lines
of diff:

Which is a little embarrassing, after all this churn, but it's not always
clear how these headers are meant to be used, at first. Now it's clear.
I think. :)
I'll post a v3 shortly
