The kselftest targets are missing tc:

make[3]: Entering directory '/build/stage/linux/tools/testing/selftests/tc-testing'
/bin/sh: 1: llc: not found
clang -I. -I/include/uapi  -Wno-compare-distinct-pointer-types \
	 -O2 -target bpf -emit-llvm -c action.c -o - |      \

Research direction

Start in tools/testing/selftests/tc-testing and inspect Makefile:27, where the tc kselftest build invokes clang and llc. Reproduce the failing target and trace how TuxMake declares or installs kselftest build dependencies; done means the target no longer fails because these tools are unavailable.
