What exactly are you doing and how is it going wrong? After some investigation, I noticed the following: 1) I first ran make headers_install as root, which installed the headers within my build tree. I later tried it again as user, and it failed due to permission issues (my bad). This is where I tried to install it into my system rather than under my build directory, which caused a mess. 2) Since make kselftest should be run as root (according to make help), this means that all the output files generated by the build are owned by root. It leads to permissions issues when trying to rebuild the tests as user afterward. Perhaps we could introduce a distinction between make kselftest_build and make kselftest_run ? The former could be executed as user, and the latter as root. > >> Also, headers_install typically expects a INSTALL_HDR_PATH. > > You can specify it, but the default is just usr/, ie. in the kernel directory, > that is what I was proposing.

When doing make headers_install, it indeed installs membarrier.h where we expect it under the build output dir: $ ls usr/include/linux/membarrier.h usr/include/linux/membarrier.h However, if I issue $ make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=membarrier make: Entering directory `/home/efficios/git/linux-next/tools/testing/selftests' for TARGET in membarrier; do \ make -C $TARGET; \ done; make[1]: Entering directory `/home/efficios/git/linux-next/tools/testing/selftests/membarrier' gcc membarrier_test.c -o membarrier_test membarrier_test.c:2:30: fatal error: linux/membarrier.h: No such file or directory #include <linux/membarrier.h> This is after applying the modifications you requested (see patch attached).

From 352465bd42737de4b97ce2072f0b36b2499dbb9e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2015 13:42:52 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Cleanup: membarrier selftest header inclusion The kselftest can depend on having installed kernel headers. Therefore, there is no need to point to the local kernel source for headers.
