Here I found my error rootcause:

My Makefile add a Werror flag, So it wil build waring as error as the
follow code

../arch/um/os-Linux/signal.c: In function
\xe2\x80\x98sig_handler_common\xe2\x80\x99:
../arch/um/os-Linux/signal.c:51:1: error: the frame size of 2960 bytes
is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
}
^
../arch/um/os-Linux/signal.c: In function
\xe2\x80\x98timer_real_alarm_handler\xe2\x80\x99:
../arch/um/os-Linux/signal.c:95:1: error: the frame size of 2960 bytes
is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
}

and I add the CONFIG_FRAME_WARN=4096 in arch/um/x86_64_defconfig so
there was no error when I use make ARCH=um defconfig && make ARCH=um
BUT I found the commit ff7b437f36b026dcd7351f86a90a0424c891dc06 has
changed use make ARCH=um kunit_defconfig in kunit.py. So the error
happened.

Further More, I compare the different between use x86_64_defconfig and
kunit_defconfig, there is a big difference.
Can We use kunit_defconfig on the basis of the x86_64_defconfig ?
If the answer is okï I would like to help add this functions
