Bug 542362 – sys-libs/glibc-2.19-r1 build fails intermittently, sys-devel/make-4.1-r1, Makerules: Cannot allocate memory. Stop.

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE

[Description Andreas K. Hüttel 2015-03-06 14:41:25 UTC]

Hit me when switching a box to hardened and rebuilding @system (after separate gcc, binutils, glibc rebuild).

make[2]: Entering directory '/srv/tmp/portage/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.19-r1/work/glibc-2.19/locale'
../Makerules:1309: *** Cannot allocate memory.  Stop.

[Comment 3 Another Mortal 2015-04-03 16:03:49 UTC]

I got a variant of this **CONSISTENTLY** -on one of the boxes I manage-
for glibc-2.20-r2 on hardened, until I mounted a tmpfs on PORTAGE_TMPDIR..

That idea came, since an almost identical setup on another box managed to
build the same glibc version without a hitch.  The only not-so-obvious
difference was that due to lack of physical harddisk capacity,
I was forced to put /var/tmp on tmpfs on that one.

[Comment 4 Matthias Maier 2017-06-11 17:42:41 UTC]

This should be fixed in the current stable make-4.2* versions.

If not, please reopen.
