When kselftest is built/installed with the 'gen_tar' target, rsync is used for the installation step to copy files. Extra care is needed for tests that have symlinks. Commitae108c48b5("selftests: net: Fix cross-tree inclusion of scripts") added '-L' (transform symlink into referent file/dir) to rsync, to fix dangling links. However, that broke some tests where the symlink (being a symlink) is part of the test (e.g. exec:execveat). Use rsync's '--copy-unsafe-links' that does right thing.

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.
