Hi all,

After merging the net tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc64le perf)
failed like this:

Warning: tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h differs from kernel
bpf.c: In function 'bpf_prog_attach':
bpf.c:180:6: error: 'union bpf_attr' has no member named 'attach_flags'; did you mean 'map_flags'?
   attr.attach_flags  = flags;
       ^

Caused by commit

   7f677633379b ("bpf: introduce BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE flag")

Unfortunately, the perf header files are kept separate from the kernel
header files proper and are not automatically copied over :-(

I have applied the following build fix patch for today.

Yes. Thanks for the fix. It's more than a merge conflict.
I should have added it in the first place. Now we have both
perf and samples/bpf depend on tools/lib/bpf and I simply
forgot about this dependency, since building perf
is not my typical workflow.

Joe,
can you think of a way to make tools/lib/bpf to
use tools/include only?
Right now we just pull tools/lib/bpf/bpf.o in samples/bpf/Makefile
and that's a hack that caused this issue.
samples/bpf/ needs to depend on libbpf.a properly.

For the patch:
Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@xxxxxxxxxx>

Dave,
can you apply it to 'net' tree,
since the patch properly made it into patchwork ?
or I can resubmit it.
Thanks!
