Segmentation fault on M1 with Big Sur and 4K display

There are sister threads here and support documents for removing a corrupt install. I would start with looking them over.... You can prevent most issues temporarily by Starting up computer after shut down with Shift key held down which will put you in Safe boot, you have to hold it for a long time and you will eventually see safe boot, in red in top right hand corner of login screen.

Thanks, I appreciate the help.

I've uninstalled DisplayLink using the installer and removed all related files I could find in ~/Library. I also connected the 4K monitor independently and set its rotation back to normal. However, the login session still crashes and returns me to the macOS login screen. I've tried restarting in Safe Mode as well.

Ah, the solution to delete the windowserver plist files in this post worked for me. I'm looking forward to rotation support, however!
