Subject: [PATCH 1/2] uapi: move constants from <linux/kernel.h> to <linux/const.h>
Date: Fri,  1 Jan 2021 21:22:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210101202245.27409-1-petr.vorel@gmail.com> (raw)

and include <linux/const.h> in UAPI headers instead of <linux/kernel.h>.

commit a85cbe6159ffc973e5702f70a3bd5185f8f3c38d upstream.

The reason is to avoid indirect <linux/sysinfo.h> include when using
some network headers: <linux/netlink.h> or others -> <linux/kernel.h>
-> <linux/sysinfo.h>.

This indirect include causes on MUSL redefinition of struct sysinfo when
included both <sys/sysinfo.h> and some of UAPI headers:

Hi,

could this fix be backported to stable releases?
Maybe safer to wait till v5.11 release.

Adjusted for stable/linux-5.4.y.

Kind regards,
Petr
