commitb21bd5a4b1upstream. Trying to build a .c file that includes <linux/bpf_perf_event.h>: $ cat test_bpf_headers.c #include <linux/bpf_perf_event.h> throws the below error: /usr/include/linux/bpf_perf_event.h:14:28: error: field ‘regs’ has incomplete type 14 | bpf_user_pt_regs_t regs; | ^~~~ This is because we typedef bpf_user_pt_regs_t to 'struct user_pt_regs' in arch/powerpc/include/uaps/asm/bpf_perf_event.h, but 'struct user_pt_regs' is not exposed to userspace. Powerpc has both pt_regs and user_pt_regs structures. However, unlike arm64 and s390, we expose user_pt_regs to userspace as just 'pt_regs'. As such, we should typedef bpf_user_pt_regs_t to 'struct pt_regs' for userspace. Within the kernel though, we want to typedef bpf_user_pt_regs_t to 'struct user_pt_regs'. Remove arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/bpf_perf_event.h so that the uapi/asm-generic version of the header is exposed to userspace. Introduce arch/powerpc/include/asm/bpf_perf_event.h so that we can typedef bpf_user_pt_regs_t to 'struct user_pt_regs' for use within the kernel. Note that this was not showing up with the bpf selftest build since tools/include/uapi/asm/bpf_perf_event.h didn't include the powerpc variant.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
