Actually, xsk.h is now installed by the library makefile: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf.git/commit/?id=3D37= 9e2014c95b So the full kernel source tree is no longer required. Is asm/barrier.h really required? Isn't there an userspace alternative? Also, the license in asm/barrier.h is GPL-2.0 only. It is not a userspace header so it is not covered by the userspace exception, which means at the very least the af_xdp PMD shared object is also licensed under GPL-2.0 only, isn't it? --=20 Kind regards, Luca Boccassi
