These comments are still true for glibc, but these defines are also used by other libc implementations. This section is also used with glibc when the kernel headers are included before the glibc headers, but this case is not so well supported. >> /* Definitions for in.h */ >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IN_ADDR >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IN_ADDR 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IN_IPPROTO >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IN_IPPROTO 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IN_PKTINFO >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IN_PKTINFO 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IP_MREQ >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IP_MREQ 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_SOCKADDR_IN >> #define __UAPI_DEF_SOCKADDR_IN 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IN_CLASS >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IN_CLASS 1 >> +#endif >> =20 >> /* Definitions for in6.h */ >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IN6_ADDR >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IN6_ADDR 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IN6_ADDR_ALT >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IN6_ADDR_ALT 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_SOCKADDR_IN6 >> #define __UAPI_DEF_SOCKADDR_IN6 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IPV6_MREQ >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IPV6_MREQ 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IPPROTO_V6 >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IPPROTO_V6 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IPV6_OPTIONS >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IPV6_OPTIONS 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IN6_PKTINFO >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IN6_PKTINFO 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IP6_MTUINFO >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IP6_MTUINFO 1 >> +#endif >> =20 >> /* Definitions for ipx.h */ >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_SOCKADDR_IPX >> #define __UAPI_DEF_SOCKADDR_IPX 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IPX_ROUTE_DEFINITION >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IPX_ROUTE_DEFINITION 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IPX_INTERFACE_DEFINITION >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IPX_INTERFACE_DEFINITION 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IPX_CONFIG_DATA >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IPX_CONFIG_DATA 1 >> +#endif >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_IPX_ROUTE_DEF >> #define __UAPI_DEF_IPX_ROUTE_DEF 1 >> +#endif >> =20 >> /* Definitions for xattr.h */ >> +#ifndef __UAPI_DEF_XATTR >> #define __UAPI_DEF_XATTR 1 >> +#endif >> =20 >> #endif /* __GLIBC__ */ >=20 > As most of affected macros are related to networking (in fact, all exce= pt > __UAPI_DEF_XATTR affect uapi/linux/{if.h,in.h,in6.h,ipv6.h,ipx.h} only)= , > I think this patch should be submitted to netdev.
