Hi Rafael,
your patch 77cab92a2cb1 ("sysctl: clean up nr_pdflush_threads
leftover") in linux-next breaks strace compilation if used with kernel
headers from linux-next.
This:
--- a/include/uapi/linux/sysctl.h
+++ b/include/uapi/linux/sysctl.h
[...]
- VM_NR_PDFLUSH_THREADS=15, /* nr_pdflush_threads */
+ VM_UNUSED15=15, /* was: int: nr_pdflush_threads */
causes this when trying to build strace:
+ ./bootstrap
configure.ac:54: installing './compile'
configure.ac:47: installing './config.guess'
configure.ac:47: installing './config.sub'
configure.ac:45: installing './install-sh'
configure.ac:45: installing './missing'
Makefile.am: installing './depcomp'
Makefile.am:975: warning: variable 'ioctlsort_LDFLAGS' is defined but no program or
Makefile.am:975: library has 'ioctlsort' as canonical name (possible typo)
parallel-tests: installing './test-driver'
+ ./configure
++ nproc
+ make -j 10
