Hi Deepesh,
Thanks for the upgrade.
It looks like some patch needs to be refreshed or dropped. It's only
applied for class-nativesdk, so that's probably why it does not show in
most builds.

Hi All,
We looked into this issue and fixed it.
Can you have a look at it?
Thanks,
Mathieu
Just in case, there's also a ptest failure that could be related to this
update:
Failed ptests:
{'elfutils':
['run-strip-strmerge.sh',
'run-elflint-self.sh',
'run-reverse-sections-self.sh']}
https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/valkyrie/#/builders/61/builds/3036/steps/13/logs/stdio
We have been able to reproduce this issue. It is related to three
elfutils ptest failures. These test cases were previously
failing with LLD linker and were marked as XFAIL. However, after
upgrading to binutils 2.46, the same failures are now
occurring with GNU ld as well.
The issue appears to be specific to the arm64 architecture. We are
currently investigating the root cause and will
provide further updates once we have more information.
Hi All,
We discussed with elfutils community and arrived at a fix. Currently
testing the fix. V2 will be sent soon.
Regards,
Deepesh
