I saw it again on a system by running two parallel build jobs:

  D=/tmp/perf-1; mkdir -p $D; while make O=$D install; do make O=$D clean; done
  D=/tmp/perf-2; mkdir -p $D; while make O=$D install; do make O=$D clean; done

one failed with:

  BUILD    PLUGIN plugin_kmem.so
make[2]: *** [sub-make] Error 2
make[1]: *** [/tmp/perf-1/libtraceevent.a] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  BUILD    PLUGIN plugin_kvm.so

the other with:

  CC FPIC  plugin_cfg80211.o
  CC       /tmp/perf-2/builtin-help.o
  CC       /tmp/perf-2/builtin-sched.o
plugin_sched_switch.o: file not recognized: File truncated
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [plugin_sched_switch.so] Error 1  BUILD    PLUGIN 
plugin_function.so


and that's clearly the new plugin code.

Thanks,

        Ingo
