    perf arm64: Fix mksyscalltbl when system kernel headers are ahead of the kernel · f95d050c
    Vitaly Chikunov authored
    When a host system has kernel headers that are newer than a compiling
    kernel, mksyscalltbl fails with errors such as:
    
      <stdin>: In function 'main':
      <stdin>:271:44: error: '__NR_kexec_file_load' undeclared (first use in this function)
      <stdin>:271:44: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
      <stdin>:272:46: error: '__NR_pidfd_send_signal' undeclared (first use in this function)
      <stdin>:273:43: error: '__NR_io_uring_setup' undeclared (first use in this function)
      <stdin>:274:43: error: '__NR_io_uring_enter' undeclared (first use in this function)
      <stdin>:275:46: error: '__NR_io_uring_register' undeclared (first use in this function)
      tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls//mksyscalltbl: line 48: /tmp/create-table-xvUQdD: Permission denied
    
    mksyscalltbl is compiled with default host includes, but run with
    compiling kernel tree includes, causing some syscall numbers to being
    undeclared.
    
    Committer testing:
    
    Before this patch, in my cross build environment, no build problems, but
    these new syscalls were not in the syscalls.c generated from the
    unistd.h file, which is a bug, this patch fixes it:
    
    perfbuilder@6e20056ed532:/git/perf$ tail /tmp/build/perf/arch/arm64/include/generated/asm/syscalls.c
    	[292] = "io_pgetevents",
    	[293] = "rseq",
    	[294] = "kexec_file_load",
    	[424] = "pidfd_send_signal",
    	[425] = "io_uring_setup",
    	[426] = "io_uring_enter",
    	[427] = "io_uring_register",
    	[428] = "syscalls",
    };
    perfbuilder@6e20056ed532:/git/perf$ strings /tmp/build/perf/perf | egrep '^(io_uring_|pidfd_|kexec_file)'
    kexec_file_load
    pidfd_send_signal
    io_uring_setup
    io_uring_enter
    io_uring_register
    perfbuilder@6e20056ed532:/git/perf$
    $
    
    Well, there is that last "syscalls" thing, but that looks like some
    other bug.
