When COMPILED_SOURCE is set, running make ARCH=x86_64 COMPILED_SOURCE=1 cscope tags could throw the following errors: scripts/tags.sh: line 98: /usr/bin/realpath: Argument list too long cscope: no source files found scripts/tags.sh: line 98: /usr/bin/realpath: Argument list too long ctags: No files specified. Try "ctags --help". This is most likely to happen when the kernel is configured to build a large number of modules, which has the consequence of passing too many arguments when calling 'realpath' in 'all_compiled_sources()'. Let's improve this by invoking 'realpath' through 'xargs', which takes care of properly limiting the argument list.

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.
