hi,
I'm getting:
BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h' differs from latest version at 'include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h'
diff -u tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h
CC bench/numa.o
bench/numa.c: In function ‘init’:
bench/numa.c:1461:24: error: ‘struct global_info’ has no member named ‘startup_done_mutex’; did you mean ‘startup_mutex’?
1461 | init_global_mutex(&g->startup_done_mutex);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
| startup_mutex
bench/numa.c:1462:23: error: ‘struct global_info’ has no member named ‘startup_done_cond’; did you mean ‘startup_cond’?
1462 | init_global_cond(&g->startup_done_cond);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
| startup_cond
