tests/README: suggest how to run tests in cross-compile mode
* tests/README (Section "User interface" subsection "Running the
tests"): Briefly explain how to override 'host_alias' at runtime
To run only selected tests:
- make -k check TESTS="foo.test bar.test"
-
- For non-GNU make, you might have to use this instead:
-
- env TESTS="foo.test bar.test" make -e -k check
+ make -k check TESTS="foo.test bar.test" (GNU make)
+ env TESTS="foo.test bar.test" make -e -k check (non-GNU make)
To run the tests in cross-compilation mode:
- make -k check host_alias="$host_alias" (GNU make)
- env host_alias="$host_alias" make -e -k check (non-GNU make)
+ make -k check host_alias="$host_alias" (GNU make)
+ env host_alias="$host_alias" make -e -k check (non-GNU make)
Here `$host_alias' should be defined to a proper value different from
configure-determined `$build_alias', and should refer to a set of
