Re: clang: error: unknown argument '-static-libasan'; did you mean '-static-libsan'?

Thanks for letting me know about the problem, I had indeed missed
build-testing any of tools/testing, so this might not be
the only problem there.

I'm not entirely sure how much of the Kbuild infrastructure we
can rely on here. If the .config file gets included, this should
work:

--- a/tools/testing/selftests/fchmodat2/Makefile
+++ b/tools/testing/selftests/fchmodat2/Makefile

 include ../lib.mk

Alternatively, if the cc-option macro is available, you could
try this one

CFLAGS += $(call cc-option, -static-libasan) $(call cc-option, -static-libsan)
