Currently, when we run the BPF selftests with the following command:
make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=bpf SKIP_TARGETS=""
The command generates untracked files and directories with make version
less than 4.4:
'''
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
tools/testing/selftests/bpfFEATURE-DUMP.selftests
tools/testing/selftests/bpffeature/
'''
We lost slash after word "bpf". The reason is slash appending code is as
follow:
'''
OUTPUT := $(OUTPUT)/
$(eval include ../../../build/Makefile.feature)
OUTPUT := $(patsubst %/,%,$(OUTPUT))
'''
This way of assigning values to OUTPUT will never be effective for the
variable OUTPUT provided via the command argument [1] and BPF makefile
is called from parent Makfile(tools/testing/selftests/Makefile) like:
'''
all:
...
$(MAKE) OUTPUT=$$BUILD_TARGET -C $$TARGET
'''
According to GNU make, we can use override Directive to fix this issue [2].
