Message-ID: <1273055578.6150.8.camel@ilurilinux> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: u-boot@lists.denx.de Dear Sylvain Lamontagne, We have had a similir issue building U-Boot (1.1.6) in a server with 2 cuadcore processors that is responsible of the automated build system. GNU Make has the posibility to run several jobs simultaneously, passing the argument "-j N", where N is the number of jobs executed simultaneously. Since our server has 8 processors, we use "-j 9" arguments in the automated build (the documentation recomends using N= number of cores +1). This way, U-Boot and other software projects, sometimes build ok and sometimes fail. We solve this problem building U-Boot and failing projects passing "-j 1" argument to Make (without running simultaneous jobs), and the rest of software with "-j 9". I have seen that you are running simultaneous jobs: *[09:23:58]:* *make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....* Hope this helps. Peace. -- Igor Luri R&D Software Department Fagor Aotek S. Coop. P. O.
