Recently it added -fno-strict-aliasing to sync with the kernel behavior.
But it caused an error due to potential uninitialized access like below:
In file included from util/symbol.c:27:
In function ‘dso__set_symbol_names_len’,
inlined from ‘dso__sort_by_name’ at util/symbol.c:638:4:
util/dso.h:654:46: error: ‘len’ may be used uninitialized [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
654 | RC_CHK_ACCESS(dso)->symbol_names_len = len;
| ^
util/symbol.c: In function ‘dso__sort_by_name’:
util/symbol.c:634:24: note: ‘len’ was declared here
634 | size_t len;
| ^~~
Let's just initialize it with 0.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
