Here's the invocation I am running to build kselftest: `$ make LLVM=1 ARCH=x86_64 mrproper headers && make LLVM=1 ARCH=x86_64 -j128 V=1 -C tools/testing/selftests`
I think I fixed the same issue in the script I am running to launch those tests in a VM. This was in commit f9abdcc617dad5f14bbc2ebe96ee99f3e6de0c4e (in the v6.5-rc+ series).
And in the commit log, I wrote:
According to commit 01d6c48a828b ("Documentation: kselftest: "make headers" is a prerequisite"), running the kselftests requires to run "make headers" first.So my assumption is that you also need to run "make headers" with the proper flags before compiling the selftests themselves (I might be wrong but that's how I read the commit).
In my original email I pasted the invocation I used which includes the headers target. What are the "proper flags" in this case?
"make LLVM=1 ARCH=x86_64 headers" no?
But now I'm starting to wonder if that was not the intent of your combined "make mrproper headers". I honestly never tried to combine the 2. It's worth a try to split them I would say.
