scripts/check-uapi.sh

scripts/check-uapi.sh is the UAPI checker.
This shell script checks UAPI header files for userspace backwards-compatibility across the git tree.
The intention is for this script to be used as a quick check for maintainers or automated tooling, not as the end-all authority on patch compatibility. It's best to remember: use your best judgment (and ideally a unit test in userspace) to make sure your UAPI changes are backwards-compatible!

TODO

Is this script related to include/uapi?
