My kernel build came to a screeching halt with:
CHECK net/bpfilter/bpfilter_kern.c
CC [M] net/bpfilter/bpfilter_kern.o
CC [U] net/bpfilter/main.o
LD [U] net/bpfilter/bpfilter_umh
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lc

make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:494: net/bpfilter] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:1726: net] Error 2
The culprit is this commit:
commit 0592c3c367c4c823f2a939968e72d39360fce1f4

bpfilter: use 'userprogs' syntax to build bpfilter_umh
and specifically, this line:
+userldflags += -static
At least on Fedora, this dies an ugly death unless you have the glibc-static RPM
installed (which is *not* part of the glibc-devel RPM). Not sure how to fix this, or
give a heads-up that there's a new requirement that might break the build.

Thanks. I will try to fix it,
but my commit is innocent because
it is just textual cleanups.
No functional change is intended.
This '-static' option has existed since
the day 1 of bpfilter umh support.
See commit d2ba09c17a0647f899d6c20a11bab9e6d3382f07
I built the mainline kernel in
Fedora running on docker.
I was able to reproduce the same issue.

Hmm... 'git show' made it look like a totally new line...
Proposed patch following in separate email...
