Hi Richard and Bruce

I also looked at the x86_64 kernel failure and it seems that objtool
is crashing and we need to backport a kernel patch into 5.10
linux-yocto kernel

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/5e6dca82bcaa49348f9e5fcb48df4881f6d6c4ae

Bruce, would you be able to take care of this ?

Yep. I can do the merge.

I have a series of -stable updates ready to go, so this will be
stacked on top of them.

Bruce

Thanks

Drop backported patches which are already present in 2.36 release

Failed in testing:

Looks to be at least two issues, the 5.10 kernel doesn't build with it
and maybe that nativesdk-binutils also has the parallel make race?

Thanks for trying it out. you are right about nativesdk race and I
have fixed it locally and will be in v2
the 5.10 kernel issue seems dicey

I wonder if we can find which binary is causing the segfault. Is it
assembler or make or something else.
