I do the build for kunit test, like below.

    mkdir ../kunit.out
    echo "
    	CONFIG_KUNIT=y
    
    	CONFIG_DAMON=y
    	CONFIG_DAMON_KUNIT_TEST=y
    
    	CONFIG_DAMON_VADDR=y
    	CONFIG_DAMON_VADDR_KUNIT_TEST=y
    
    	CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y
    	CONFIG_DAMON_DBGFS=y
    	CONFIG_DAMON_DBGFS_KUNIT_TEST=y
    CONFIG_DAMON_PADDR=y" > ../kunit.out/.kunitconfig
    ./tools/testsing/kunit/kunit.py run --build_dir ../kunit.out
    [19:12:37] Configuring KUnit Kernel ...
