  Hi all,

After merging the modules tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

Segmentation fault
make[3]: *** [/home/sfr/next/next/scripts/Makefile.modfinal:56: lib/tests/module/test_kallsyms_d.ko] Error 139
make[3]: *** Deleting file 'lib/tests/module/test_kallsyms_d.ko'

Caused by commit

  6336b7d9a520 ("selftests: add new kallsyms selftests")

These new tests spend a long time just linking the modules (especially
test_kallsyms_c.ko and test_kallsyms_d.ko) and then the linker segfaults
before finishing test_kallsyms_d.ko.  Maybe your stress tests need to be a little less stressful :-)

The build machine does not run out of memory (it has 30-40GB free).

$ x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc --version
x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc (Debian 13.2.0-7) 13.2.0
$ x86_64-linux-gnu-ld --version
GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.41

I have applied the following patch for today.
