Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] selftests: complete kselftest include centralization

Hey Brendan,

Thanks for the report.

This issue is caused by my change that centralized the kselftest.h
include path in lib.mk, while the x86 selftests Makefile overwrites CFLAGS
with :=, so shared include path unable to find kselftest.h. The fix is to
explicity add the selftests include directory to CFLAGS in
tools/testing/selftests/x86/Makefile.

I have already submitted this:
[PATCH] selftests/x86: Add selftests include path for kselftest.h after centralization
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20251022062948.162852-1-reddybalavignesh9979@gmail.com/

it has been tested and confirmed working.
 Tested-by: Anders Roxell <anders.roxell@...aro.org>

Once that patch is merged, the x86 selftests build issue should be
resolved.

Thanks
Bala Vignesh
