From 76489955c6d4a065ca69dc88faf7a50a59b66f35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Dooks Date: Fri, 9 Jan 2026 13:39:38 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] audit: move the compat_xxx_class[] extern declarations to audit_arch.h The comapt_xxx_class symbols aren't declared in anything that lib/comapt_audit.c is including (arm64 build) which is causing the following sparse warnings: lib/compat_audit.c:7:10: warning: symbol 'compat_dir_class' was not declared. Should it be static? lib/compat_audit.c:12:10: warning: symbol 'compat_read_class' was not declared. Should it be static? lib/compat_audit.c:17:10: warning: symbol 'compat_write_class' was not declared. Should it be static? lib/compat_audit.c:22:10: warning: symbol 'compat_chattr_class' was not declared. Should it be static? lib/compat_audit.c:27:10: warning: symbol 'compat_signal_class' was not declared. Should it be static? Trying to fix this by chaning compat_audit.c to inclde does not work on arm64 due to compile errors with the extra includes that changing this header makes. The simpler thing would be just to move the definitons of these symbols out of into which is included.
