The kernel is now built with -fms-extensions. Anonymous structs or
unions permitted by these extensions have been used in several places,
and can end up in the generated vmlinux.h file, for example:
struct ns_tree {
[...]
};
[...]
struct ns_common {
[...]
union {
struct ns_tree;
struct callback_head ns_rcu;
};
};
Trying to include this header for compiling a tool may result in build
warnings, if the compiler does not expect these extensions. This is the
case, for example, with bpftool:
In file included from skeleton/pid_iter.bpf.c:3:
.../tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/build/bpftool/vmlinux.h:64057:3:
warning: declaration does not declare anything
[-Wmissing-declarations]
64057 | struct ns_tree;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fix these build warnings in bpftool by turning on Microsoft extensions
when compiling the two BPF programs that rely on vmlinux.h.
