Motivation for this change
ZHF: #97479
This required a bit of an overhaul to ensure we're compiling against this kernel's headers, not those in glibc which are presumably from some other random kernel version. I looked at using the
makeKernelHeaders
function used to buildlinuxHeaders
, but it's really designed to work with just our current main kernel version. So I just providedflex
andbison
and letmake headers_install
do its thing.While it would be nice to use a kernel version we already ship elsewhere or update to a more recent kernel version, the userspace lockdep tool is apparently not very heavily maintained and the build of this tool reportedly got broken soon after the release chosen here.
