hi,
it's gcc dwarf issue tracked in here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=97060

it's introduced by the gcc version 10.2.1 and we
were told it will take some time to fix

so we took steps to workaround that, the patchset
just got acked and it's on its way to get merged:

https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20201106222512.52454-1-jolsa@kernel.org/

it's change for both dwarves/pahole and kernel

the quick workaround is to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF
option
