            Bug ID: 30459
           Summary: Ko compilation failures with kernel 6.1/6.2 kernel
                    headers
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: runtime
          Assignee: systemtap at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: agentzh at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

For some nontrivial stap scripts compiled with Fedora 36's 6.1 and 6.2 kernels,
the kernel build system trows out the following compilation errors:

```

                 from /opt/stap-plus/share/systemtap/runtime/runtime.h:26,

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:250:

make: *** [Makefile:2016: /tmp/stapzRqxL5] Error 2
WARNING: kbuild exited with status: 2
Pass 4: compilation failed.  [man error::pass4]
```

An unused C array is allocated on the stack, which triggers this error. I'll
prepare a patch to fix this.
