Unfortunately, i have tied this but failed:

../../arch/x86/include/asm/svm.h:262:1: error: packed attribute is unnecessary for âvmcb_segâ [-Werror=packed]
../../arch/x86/include/asm/svm.h:307:1: error: packed attribute is unnecessary for âvmcb_save_areaâ [-Werror=packed]

Or:

/usr/include/sys/ucontext.h:48:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
