Running make xconfig on a Raspberry Pi over SSH causes FreeBSD to panic with a page fault!

Hello,

I don't know if this is a known problem and I know this probably isn't the right place to post this but I think someone should definitely know about it if it isn't already known about.

I was trying to compile the Linux kernel on a Raspberry Pi 4 (running Raspberry Pi OS) that I was SSHed into (using a machine that is running freebsd.) I entered the command make xconfig. This caused the FreeBSD machine to crash. I tried the same command again whiles SSHed into the Pi after a reboot and it crashed the FreeBSD machine again.

The commands were:

ssh cray@10.0.0.29 -XY (to connect to the Pi)
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux
KERNEL=kernel7l
make bcm2711_defconfig
make xconfig (It is at this point that FreeBSD crashes. This command is supposed to open a GUI program that is running on the Pi and is accicible via VNC on the FreeBSD machine as I understand it.)

Upon rebooting the machine I can see a message to the effect that there has been a core dump and I have saved copies of the files core.txt.1 vmcore.1. I can provide them if anyone is interested.

This is the start of the core.txt.1 file:



cdc6600 dumped core - see /var/crash/vmcore.1
