Building the tty selftests generates the tty_tiocsti_test binary, which appears as untracked file in git. As mentioned in the kselftest documentation, all the generated objects must be placed inside .gitignore. This prevents the generated objects from accidentally getting staged and keeps the working tree clean. Add the tty_tiocsti_test binary to .gitignore to avoid accidentally staging the build artifact and maintain a clean working tree.

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.
