Comment 5 Bui Xuan Dien 2021-08-22 00:46:45 UTC
I don't think this is a syntax related error. as it happens the same with ebuild xorg-server version 1.20.11, 1.20.12 I found some information related to gcc5 but I am using gcc 10.3.0 . Maybe my system built the wrong flag. Thanks
Comment 6 Bui Xuan Dien 2021-08-27 03:31:54 UTC
Now emerge successfully after emerge --sync, add FEATURES="-userpriv", add "threads" flag to make.config flag
Comment 7 Piotr Karbowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2021-08-29 09:30:14 UTC
Can you reproduce the problem if you build with default enabled userpriv? Also, what does 'ls -l /bin/sh' gives you?
Comment 8 Bui Xuan Dien 2021-08-29 14:04:12 UTC
Yes I just enabled userpriv can't build. 
$ ls -l /bin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Feb 21  2021 /bin/sh -> bash
Comment 9 Piotr Karbowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2021-08-29 17:19:17 UTC
Sounds like some silent permissions problems. Get yourself dev-util/sysdig, load kernel module and in another shell, as root run:

    sysdig "user.name = 'portage' and (evt.res = EACCES or evt.res = EPERM)"

Then in yet another shell try to build xorg-server with userpriv and see what paths are yielding permissions problems.
Comment 10 Bui Xuan Dien 2021-08-30 01:55:09 UTC
Wow that's amazing! I found the path that was causing the error. But I don't quite understand the current permission. Apparently the path that caused the error was still working fine before for a long time.

readlink (48079) < openat fd=-13(EACCES) dirfd=5(<f>/mnt/tmp_build/portage) name=..(/mnt/tmp_build) flags=1(O_RDONLY) mode=0 dev=0

An error occurred in the build directory attached to the hard drive.
$ ls -l /mnt/tmp_build
4 drwx--x--x 13 root root 4096 Jun 24 13:49 tmp_build

I have chmod 777 /mnt/tmp_build and successfully bulid xorg-server
