This is done by way of sanitizing various C header files that are shipped in the Linux kernel source tarball. Make sure there are no stale files embedded in the package: make mrproper Now extract the user-visible kernel headers from the source. The recommended make target headers_install cannot be used, because it requires rsync, which may not be available. The headers are first placed in ./usr, then copied to the needed location. make headers cp -rv usr/include/* /tools/include <para>Details on this package are located in <xref linkend="contents-linux-headers" role="."/></para> </sect2> </sect1>
