Kbuild provides scripts/Makefile.host to build host programs used for building the kernel. Unfortunately, there are two exceptions that opt out of Kbuild. The build system under tools/ is a cheesy replica, and cause issues. I was recently poked about a problem in the tools build system, which I do not maintain (and nobody maintains). [1] Without a comment, people might believe this is the right location because that is where objtool lives, even if a more robust Kbuild syntax satisfies their needs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
