Dear Maintainer,

Hi, tried to compile kernel 5.16.0 from kernel.org.
At linking point I get:

 CHK     include/generated/compile.h
  LD      vmlinux.o
  MODPOST vmlinux.symvers
  MODINFO modules.builtin.modinfo
  GEN     modules.builtin
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux.btf
ld: BFD (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.35.2 internal error, aborting at ../../bfd/merge.c:939 in _bfd_merged_section_offset

ld: Please report this bug.



thanks in advance.

This looks like a bug in ld (part of binutils), not a bug in
bugs.debian.org. I'm guessing that this is binutils 2.35.2-2.

Please confirm the version and the architecture that you are seeing this
bug in.
