Since commit 57fd251c7896 ("kbuild: split cc-option and friends to
scripts/Makefile.compiler"), some kselftests fail to build.
The tools/ directory opted out Kbuild, and went in a different
direction. People copied scripts and Makefiles to the tools/ directory
to create their own build system.
tools/build/Build.include mimics scripts/Kbuild.include, but some
tool Makefiles include the Kbuild one to import a feature that is
missing in tools/build/Build.include:
- Commit ec04aa3ae87b ("tools/thermal: tmon: use "-fstack-protector"
only if supported") included scripts/Kbuild.include from
tools/thermal/tmon/Makefile to import the cc-option macro.
- Commit c2390f16fc5b ("selftests: kvm: fix for compilers that do
not support -no-pie") included scripts/Kbuild.include from
tools/testing/selftests/kvm/Makefile to import the try-run macro.
- Commit 9cae4ace80ef ("selftests/bpf: do not ignore clang
failures") included scripts/Kbuild.include from
tools/testing/selftests/bpf/Makefile to import the .DELETE_ON_ERROR
target.
- Commit 0695f8bca93e ("selftests/powerpc: Handle Makefile for
unrecognized option") included scripts/Kbuild.include from
tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/pmu/ebb/Makefile to import the
try-run macro.
Copy what they need into tools/build/Build.include, and make them
include it instead of scripts/Kbuild.include.

TMON - A Monitoring and Testing Tool for Linux kernel thermal subsystem Why TMON? ========== Increasingly, Linux is running on thermally constrained devices. The simple thermal relationship between processor and fan has become past for modern computers. As hardware vendors cope with the thermal constraints on their products, more and more sensors are added, new cooling capabilities are introduced. The complexity of the thermal relationship can grow exponentially among cooling devices, zones, sensors, and trip points. They can also change dynamically. To expose such relationship to the userspace, Linux generic thermal layer introduced sysfs entry at /sys/class/thermal with a matrix of symbolic links, trip point bindings, and device instances. To traverse such matrix by hand is not a trivial task. Testing is also difficult in that thermal conditions are often exception cases that hard to reach in normal operations. TMON is conceived as a tool to help visualize, tune, and test the complex thermal subsystem. Files ===== tmon.c : main function for set up and configurations. tui.c : handles ncurses based user interface sysfs.c : access to the generic thermal sysfs pid.c : a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller that can be used for thermal relationship training. Requirements ============ Depends on ncurses Build ========= $ make $ sudo ./tmon -h Usage: tmon [OPTION...] -c, --control cooling device in control -d, --daemon run as daemon, no TUI -l, --log log data to /var/tmp/tmon.log -h, --help show this help message -t, --time-interval set time interval for sampling -v, --version show version -g, --debug debug message in syslog 1. For monitoring only: $ sudo ./tmon
