commit 7de21e679e upstream.
A few archs like powerpc have different errno.h values for macros
EDEADLOCK and EDEADLK. In code including both libc and linux versions of
errno.h, this can result in multiple definitions of EDEADLOCK in the
include chain. Definitions to the same value (e.g. seen with mips) do
not raise warnings, but on powerpc there are redefinitions changing the
value, which raise warnings and errors (if using "-Werror").
Guard against these redefinitions to avoid build errors like the following,
first seen cross-compiling libbpf v5.8.9 for powerpc using GCC 8.4.0 with
musl 1.1.24:
In file included from ../../arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/errno.h:5,
from ../../include/linux/err.h:8,
from libbpf.c:29:
../../include/uapi/asm-generic/errno.h:40: error: "EDEADLOCK" redefined [-Werror]
#define EDEADLOCK EDEADLK
In file included from toolchain-powerpc_8540_gcc-8.4.0_musl/include/errno.h:10,
from libbpf.c:26:
toolchain-powerpc_8540_gcc-8.4.0_musl/include/bits/errno.h:58: note: this is the location of the previous definition
#define EDEADLOCK 58
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
