emerge --info

On a x86 system, upgrading gcc from 11 to 12 fails:

{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:1385952: Warning: end of file not at end of a line; newline inserted
{standard input}:1386553: Error: bad register name `%ea'
{standard input}: Error: open CFI at the end of file; missing .cfi_endproc directive
xg++: fatal error: Killed signal terminated program cc1plus
compilation terminated.

make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

I found bug 35043 where the lack of memory was the reason for a similar problem. My system has 1 GB memory and 2 GB swap - is it enough?

I'd take a look at dmesg and see if there are out-of-memory errors.
Comment 5 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2023-03-18 23:51:17 UTC
You can try dropping -pipe from *FLAGS and also consider adding -Wl,--no-keep-memory to LDFLAGS.
Comment 6 Matthias Hanft 2023-03-19 19:02:47 UTC
dmesg had said:
[26614583.403484] Out of memory: Kill process 2097 (cc1plus) score 351 or sacrifice child
[26614583.403487] Killed process 2097 (cc1plus) total-vm:1128988kB, anon-rss:483704kB, file-rss:2184kB, shmem-rss:0kB

Removing -pipe finally did the job.

Thanks a lot!

(Wish for the future: A portage error message similar to "Not enough memory" instead of "Bad register name %ea" - then I would have got it).
