You can run the test category which you are interested in, -h option shows
the list of the test category:
# ./netwoktests.sh -h

+Cross compiling
+---------------
+
+To cross compile, override one or more of CC, AR, CROSS_CFLAGS,
+LOADLIBES, LDFLAGS, & LIB_DIR and be sure to always build from the top level.
+
+To override them from the make commandline, do something like this:
+$ CROSS_COMPILER=/opt/cegl-1.4/hardhat/devkit/ppc/405/bin/powerpc-linux-
+$ make \
+ CROSS_CFLAGS="-mcpu=403 -D__PPC405__" \
+ LDFLAGS=-static \
+ LOADLIBES="-lpthread -lc -lresolv -lnss_dns -lnss_files -lm -lc"
+
+Alternately, to override them by editing this file, uncomment the
+following lines:
+ CROSS_COMPILER=/opt/ppc64/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-
+ CROSS_CFLAGS= -mpowerpc64
+ LDFLAGS=-static
+ LOADLIBES=-lpthread -lc -lresolv -lnss_dns -lnss_files -lm -lc
+ LIB_DIR=/lib64
+ export LOADLIBES LIB_DIR
+
+Or, you can save all your settings into the local 'config.mk' file.
+The defaults will not be usable in that case; you will need to
+override things explicitly.
+
+uClinux Users: make sure you add -DUCLINUX to your CFLAGS
+
+Note: If you override a variable from the commandline all
+assignments to it in the Makefiles will be ignored. To set it both
+in the commandline and in the Makefiles use a dummy variable like in
+CFLAGS.
+
+Variables in Makefile
+----------------------
+
+The conventions enforced are the standard ones. LTP isnt redefining any
+of the flags from their normal meaning. here's a quick summary:
+
+CFLAGS - used when compiling/linking C code (no CPPFLAGS!)
+
+CXXFLAGS - used when compiling/linking C++ code (no CPPFLAGS!)
+
+CPPFLAGS - used when preprocessor is run (so C/C++ compiling an $(CPP)
+ checks)
+
+LDFLAGS - linker flags (no libraries) used when linking
+
+LDLIBS - libraries listed after objects during link
+
+Above list is ideal: Many codes in LTP violates above list especially
+about CPPFLAGS. e.g. -I and -D are passed to CFLAGS.
+
+Currently the violation isn't critical. However, it should be fixed.
+Patches are welcome.
