I can no longer build individual tests. For example: cd breakpoints/ shuah@shuah-XPS-13-9350:/lkml/linux_4.11/tools/testing/selftests/breakpoints$ make gcc breakpoint_test.c -o /breakpoint_test /usr/bin/ld: cannot open output file /breakpoint_test: Permission denied collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status ../lib.mk:54: recipe for target '/breakpoint_test' failed make: *** [/breakpoint_test] Error 1 commit a8ba798bc8ec663cf02e80b0dd770324de9bafd9 Author: bamvor.zhangjian@xxxxxxxxxx <bamvor.zhangjian@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Nov 29 19:55:52 2016 +0800 selftests: enable O and KBUILD_OUTPUT I believe the above patch is one of the suspects. Michael fixed some of the problems in this patch and others he sent. At the moment individual tests will not build. tools/testing/selftests/x86$ make Makefile:44: warning: overriding recipe for target 'clean' ../lib.mk:51: warning: ignoring old recipe for target 'clean' gcc -m64 -o /single_step_syscall_64 -O2 -g -std=gnu99 -pthread -Wall single_step_syscall.c -lrt -ldl /usr/bin/ld: cannot open output file /single_step_syscall_64: Permission denied collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Makefile:50: recipe for target '/single_step_syscall_64' failed make: *** [/single_step_syscall_64] Error 1 My guess is OUTPUT doesn't resolve in individual builds from the test directory. We have to get this fixed for 4.11-rc1 Simply Reverting a8ba798bc8ec663cf02e80b0dd770324de9bafd9 doesn't work. Michael's patches depend on this. So anyway, please let me know if you can fix this quickly. I am going to be trying a few things today as well. thanks, -- Shuah -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
