Compiling unit tests without a cross-compilation toolchain
==========================================================

You can also compile the unit tests with your native compiler. You won't
be able to _run_ the tests but this can be convenient to test
compilation issues quickly:
You can also compile and run unit tests with your native compiler:

.. code-block:: bash

cmake -B build_ut -DBUILD_UNIT_TESTS_HOST=yes -DTOOLCHAIN=gcc \
rm -rf build_ut/
cmake -B build_ut/ -DBUILD_UNIT_TESTS_HOST=yes \
-DBUILD_UNIT_TESTS=ON -DINIT_CONFIG=something_defconfig
make -C build_ut/ -j8 && make -C build_ut/ test

The ``scripts/run-cmocks.sh`` script does all that and can also run unit
tests with valgrind.
