Package build environments like Fedora rpmbuild introduced hardening
options (e.g. -pie -Wl,-z,now) by passing a -spec option to CFLAGS
and LDFLAGS.
Some Makefiles currently override CFLAGS but not LDFLAGS, which leads
to a mismatch and build failure, for example:
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccd2apay.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against
`.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a PIE object; recompile with -fPIE
/usr/bin/ld: failed to set dynamic section sizes: bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [../../lib.mk:222: tools/testing/selftests/net/lib/csum] Error 1
openvswitch/Makefile CFLAGS currently do not appear to be used, but
fix it anyway for the case when new tests are introduced in future.

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 reStructuredText 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.
