hey there, I just read the release notes of mold-1.7.0 and it states that a certain fix for dev-cpp/tbb is needed if you do use system-tbb: from the release notes: mold 1.7.0 is a new release of the high-speed linker. Just like previous versions, you need to apply oneapi-src/oneTBB@137c1a8 to libtbb if you do not use a bundled version of OneTBB library. OneTBB has merged this patch, but the most recent release of OneTBB hasn't picked it up yet. link: https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneTBB/commit/137c1a88b690acf3525e0f279720ac489ce66481
from the issue/bug report: >On many Unix-like systems, pthread_create can fail spuriously even if >the running machine has enough resources to spawn a new thread. >Therefore, if EAGAIN is returned from pthread_create, we actually have >to try again. >I observed this issue when running the mold linker >(https://github.com/rui314/mold) under a heavy load. mold uses OneTBB >for parallelization.
Sorry, I thought we had. Good spot!
