oh, you are correct. I'm sorry.
I will re-spin the patch and make the changelog reflect the actual change
next time.

Oh, I've missed that use-case. Will fix that in the re-spin of the patch.

To fix this build issue when cross compiling

--- a/tools/testing/selftests/sync/Makefile
+++ b/tools/testing/selftests/sync/Makefile
@@ -30,7 +30,7 @@ $(TEST_CUSTOM_PROGS): $(TESTS) $(OBJS)

The other issue that needs to be addressed somehow would be make the
build system do
headers_install or if that should be a prerequisite.
I've seen ways to install the headers: "make -C ../../../..
headers_install" if the headers
aren't there, in
tools/testing/selftests/gpio/Makefile
tools/testing/selftests/vm/Makefile

Is that the preferred way or should an update in
Documentation/dev-tools/kselftest.rst be done to say do "make
headers_install" before
building kselftests?


Cheers,
Anders
