arm64: 'asm/types.h' file not found

Hi there,

I'm trying to use bcc tools 0.17.0-ad5b82a5 on a arm64. Python version is 3.9,
Kernel version is 5.10.109, and I have the kernel headers installed on the file system.

When trying to use any tool, I'm getting the following error:

# ./tcptop
In file included from :2:
In file included from /virtual/include/bcc/bpf.h:12:
In file included from include/linux/types.h:6:
include/uapi/linux/types.h:5:10: fatal error: 'asm/types.h' file not found
#include
^~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/bcc/tools/./tcptop", line 225, in
b = BPF(text=bpf_text)
File "/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/bcc/__init__.py", line 364, in __init__
raise Exception("Failed to compile BPF module %s" % (src_file or ""))
Exception: Failed to compile BPF module

Referring to issue #3731 I tried setting the environment variable BCC_KERNEL_SOURCE, but the result is the same.
Anyway, this issue is relevant to x86-64, my case is arm64.

Can you advise?

Thanks,

Nir.

Reproduce the failure with the tcptop entry point and inspect the include/linux/types.h and include/uapi/linux/types.h paths involved in the missing asm/types.h error. Review how BCC_KERNEL_SOURCE is consumed in bcc/__init__.py, then verify that a BCC tool compiles and runs on arm64 with the installed kernel headers.
