Well rawhide is generally OK, but it's not unusual for kernels to fail during the two week upstream merge window, I've seen all arches in x86 cause issues during the merge window. Outside of that things tend to be OK. > (The bug appears to be in BTF generation: it is not valid to assume that > static functions or variables are emitted under their declared names, or > that they have any particular calling convention or data layout.

That issue is being dealt with upstream: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210427182053.ttiuxdt675lzmvk3@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/#mb49c7d3d32700fa0e9c8b019fa3bf9d9e0cc3bf5 _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list -- kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kernel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
