I cloned -next, and try to test rcu:
$git clone https://kernel.source.codeaurora.cn/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git
(kernel.source.codeaurora.cn is Chinese mirror of  git.kernel.org)
$cd linux-next
$git describe
next-20220125
$tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/torture.sh --duration 10
$cd linux-next/tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/res/2022.01.25-23.10.36-torture/allmodconfig
$cat Make.exitcode
2
$grep Stop Make.out
make[2]: *** No rule to make target
'arch/x86/kvm//home/zzy/Program/linux-next/linux-next/tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/kvm_main.o',
needed by 'arch/x86/kvm/kvm.o'.  Stop.
I tried the above two times in two different machines today, they all failed.


Meanwhile I can config and build the kernel successfully by invoking
the build commands by hand:
$git clone https://kernel.source.codeaurora.cn/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git
$cd linux-next
$git describe
next-20220125
$make allmodconfig
$make -j 16
Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready  (#2)
  GEN     Module.symvers
$echo $?
0

I am very interested in this problem and I am eager to try to dig out
what happened and fix it before this Sunday. And it is more delightful
to me that other developers can solve this problem because they are
more mature than me ;-)

Many thanks
