When the BPF selftests are cross-compiled, only the a host version of bpftool is built. This version of bpftool is used on the host-side to generate various intermediates, e.g., skeletons. The test runners are also using bpftool, so the Makefile will symlink bpftool from the selftest/bpf root, where the test runners will look the tool: | $(Q)ln -sf $(if $2,..,.)/tools/build/bpftool/bootstrap/bpftool \ | $(OUTPUT)/$(if $2,$2/)bpftool There are two problems for cross-compilation builds: 1. There is no native (cross-compilation target) of bpftool 2. The bootstrap/bpftool is never cross-compiled (by design) Make sure that a native/cross-compiled version of bpftool is built, and if CROSS_COMPILE is set, symlink the native/non-bootstrap version.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
