[PATCH net] vsock/uapi: fix linux/vm_sockets.h userspace compilation errors

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Stefano Garzarella <sgarzare@xxxxxxxxxx>

If a userspace application just include <linux/vm_sockets.h> will fail
to build with the following errors:

    /usr/include/linux/vm_sockets.h:182:39: error: invalid application of ‘sizeof’ to incomplete type ‘struct sockaddr’
      182 |         unsigned char svm_zero[sizeof(struct sockaddr) -
          |                                       ^~~~~~
    /usr/include/linux/vm_sockets.h:183:39: error: ‘sa_family_t’ undeclared here (not in a function)
      183 |                                sizeof(sa_family_t) -
          |

Include <sys/socket.h> for userspace (guarded by ifndef __KERNEL__)
where `struct sockaddr` and `sa_family_t` are defined.
We already do something similar in <linux/mptcp.h> and <linux/if.h>.
