I think resctrl_tests.o is an old file you left before applying this patch.
Please remove it before rebuilding.

Before applying this patch, the resctrl_tests.o file was generated and
saved in the current directory(tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/).
After applying this patch, the resctrl_tests.o file was not generated and
the compilation and linking work is done at one time by gcc.
These errors were caused by the previously left resctrl_tests.o file.

Thanks for your advice.
Only the following codes can build resctrl_tests.
+ TEST_GEN_PROGS := resctrl_tests
+ include ../lib.mk
+ $(OUTPUT)/resctrl_tests: $(wildcard *.c)
I will use these codes in next version(v4).
