I wanted to wrote two emails instead of one - that's why was there 2
different things.
1. disable compilation "verbose" mode and turn on it with V=1.
2. Move all binaries outside of LTP source code O=/path
3. I use only some parts of LTP for my testing and it will be good to
enable/disable just tests which you want to use.
4. If is possible clean all Makefiles

I don't have much experience with Kbuild I had just quick look. I looked
at uClinux distribution
(from blackfin repo - user folder) and there are called user apps
Makefile with make -C folder in loop.
Is it possible to easy compile many separates apps with any simpler
description.
I mean something like hostprogs-y += hello but not only for host programs.
Is it possible to use I don't know for example progs-y+=hello or any
similar?
