Subject: [PATCH v2 2/8] selftests/mm: remove flaky header check
Date: Wed,  7 Jan 2026 16:48:36 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260107164842.3289559-3-kevin.brodsky@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260107164842.3289559-1-kevin.brodsky@arm.com>

Commit 96ed62ea0298 ("mm: page_frag: fix a compile error when kernel
is not compiled") introduced a check to avoid attempting to build
the page_frag module if <linux/page_frag_cache.h> is missing.

Unfortunately this check only works if KDIR points to
/lib/modules/... or an in-tree kernel build. It always fails if KDIR
points to an out-of-tree build (i.e. when the kernel was built with
O=... make) because only generated headers are present under
$KDIR/include/ in that case.

A recent commit switched KDIR to default to the kernel's build
directory, so that check is no longer justified.
