On the BPF CI, we have such errors:
mptcp_pm_nl_ctl.c:20:10: fatal error: 'linux/mptcp.h' file not found 20 | #include "linux/mptcp.h" | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On my side, I don't have any issue, because the compiler uses the mptcp.h file from the system: /usr/include/linux/mptcp.h
I suppose that's not OK on the BPF CI, as it looks like it doesn't have this file there, probably because it still uses Ubuntu 20.04 as base, which doesn't include this file in the linux-libc-dev package.
When I look at how this 'mptcp_pm_nl_ctl' tool -- and all the other programs from that list -- is compiled (V=1), I see that the following "-I" options are given:
-I${PWD}/tools/testing/selftests/bpf -I${BUILD}//tools/include -I${BUILD}/include/generated -I${PWD}/tools/lib -I${PWD}/tools/include -I${PWD}/tools/include/uapi -I${BUILD}/
It will then not look at -I${PWD}/usr/include or the directory generated with:
make headers_install INSTALL_HDR_PATH=(...)
It sounds like the tools/testing/selftests/net/mptcp/Makefile is looking at this include path, so it works?
Yes it does work.
iiu the bpf/Makefile correctly, it has the bpftool "make" compiled and installed at tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/sbin/. May be directly compile the pm_nl_ctl by "make tools/testing/selftests/net/mptcp/"?
That could be an alternative, I didn't know it would be OK to add such dependence, good idea.
I guess that's why people have duplicated files in 'tools/include/uapi', but I also understood from Jakub that it is not a good idea to continue to do so.
What would be the best solution to avoid a copy? A symlink still looks like a workaround.
In the other selftests, KHDR_INCLUDES is used to be able to include the path containing the UAPI headers. So if someone built the headers in a
Meaning KHDR_INCLUDES should be used and - I${PWD}/tools/include/uapi can be retired?
That's the idea, yes, for "userspace programs". I mean: for BPF programs requiring vmlinux.h (BPF_CFLAGS), I guess you will still need the bpf.h file from tools/include/uapi, no?
I haven't looked into the details. I quickly tried but it fails in my environment.
Do you not have issues because some files have something like:
#include <uapi/linux/(...).h>
On my side, I had a working version using this patch:

But only after having removed these extra 'uapi/':
$ git grep -l '<uapi/' -- tools/testing/selftests/bpf | \ xargs sed -i 's|#include <uapi/|#include <|g'
Is it not OK for you like that?
Note that I built the selftests using KHDR_INCLUDES=- I$INSTALL_HDR_PATH.
Do you need me to do anything here? This patchset seems to have been waiting for several months.
Another option is to roll back to v2, not add this mptcp_pm_nl_ctl tool, and continue to use "ip mptcp". I remember mentioning in the comments of v2 that BPF CI systems will also be upgraded to new Ubuntu system and iproute2 in the future. At this time now we can make a check for "ip mptcp" and only run this test on systems that support "ip mptcp", and skip the test with test__skip() for systems that do not support it, so that CI can also pass.
WDYT?
Thanks, -Geliang
seperated directory -- INSTALL_HDR_PATH=(...) -- KHDR_INCLUDES can be overridden to look there, instead of ${KERNEL_SRC}/usr/include. Would it be OK to do that? Would it work for the CI without extra changes? Or do you still prefer a copy/symlink to 'tools/include/uapi' instead?
