Description Timothy Miller 2012-05-23 20:19:31 UTC
I have an 8GB ramdisk that I use to compile Gentoo stuff in /var/tmp/portage.  net-libs/webkit-gtk-1.8.1-r201 fails to compile.  Here's the relevant line in the log:

  CXXLD  libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0.la
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ranlib: .libs/libWebCore.a: No space left on device
make: *** [libWebCore.la] Error 1
 * ERROR: net-libs/webkit-gtk-1.8.1-r201 failed (compile phase):

Whole web browsers can compile in this 8GB space, and older versions of webkit also never had any trouble.  So my suspicion is that something is wrong with this version of the package.  Something is taking up excessive space that is not related to the package.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Timothy Miller 2012-05-23 20:20:45 UTC
I'll attach more stuff shortly.  (Environment, emerge --info, etc.)  But before I did that, I wanted to try compiling without the ramdisk.  When I do that, the emerge crashes horribly and spews out too much text for me to make sense of it.  Just in case there's a glitch, I'm going to try once more after a portage sync and report on that.
Comment 2 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-05-24 01:03:10 UTC
1) Please post your `emerge --info net-libs/webkit-gtk' output in a comment.
2) Please attach the entire build log to this bug report.

Some facts from me on a amd64 system


$ du -sch *
578M	webkit-gtk-1.8.1-r201
13G	webkit-gtk-1.8.1-r201.g

adding -g to FLAGS blows it up to 13GB

We could add a disk size check, like libreoffice and boost. I'm sure this would be useful :)

I added following to the webkit-gtk ebuild on overlay. Now the 6GB of space requirement is a bit optimistic, but real space requirement depends on multiple factors like flags itself (-g1 vs -ggdb) and enabled features.

CHECKREQS_DISK_BUILD="6G"

pkg_pretend() {
    if is-flagq "-g*" ; then
        check-reqs_pkg_pretend
    fi
}

pkg_setup() {
    # Check whether any of the debugging flags is enabled
    if is-flagq "-g*" ; then
        check-reqs_pkg_setup
        einfo "You have at least 6GB of temporary build space available, but it
        may still not be enough, as the total space requirement depends on the
        debugging flags (-ggdb vs -g1) and enabled features."
    fi

    # ...
}
Comment 13 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-01-01 08:52:51 UTC
Honestly, this value needs to be bumped up. I can't compile webkit-gtk 1.10.2-r300 in 18GB of free space. It fails during make install with out of space errors. 6GB is way too optimistic. I was using -g. I can't even imagine what the space requirements are for -ggdb.

Thanks for testing; I've raised webkit-gtk-1.10's CHECKREQS_DISK_BUILD to 18G, and also added the check to the webkit-gtk-1.8 ebuilds.

+  01 Jan 2013; Alexandre Rostovtsev <tetromino@gentoo.org>
+  webkit-gtk-1.8.3-r200.ebuild, webkit-gtk-1.8.3-r300.ebuild:
+  Add webkit-gtk-1.10's build space check to 1.8.3.
+
+  01 Jan 2013; Alexandre Rostovtsev <tetromino@gentoo.org>
+  webkit-gtk-1.10.2-r300.ebuild:
+  Raise build space requirements for webkit with debugging flags to 18GB (bug
+  #417307, thanks to Doug Goldstein). Replace -ggdb with -g until binutils is
+  fixed (bug #432784, thanks to Maciej Piechotka and Priit Laes); users of
+  patched binutils can allow -ggdb usage by adding WEBKIT_GTK_GGDB=yes to
+  make.conf
Comment 15 Timothy Miller 2013-01-01 23:04:01 UTC
Is 18G to compile this justified in the first place?  Maybe something is wrong.
Comment 16 N. Andrew Walsh 2015-01-20 16:27:25 UTC
Just to make sure: this only applies when the "-g" debugging flag is set, right? The 18G space check seems to be active for all compiles; I got quite a shock, since I'm not setting -g for anything. Maybe make it conditional?

The check in pkg_pretend is conditional on CFLAGS="-g*" but the check in pkg_setup is unconditional, I think this should be fixed.
