Hi all,
the current build delivers an error with dnsdist:

dnsdist (1.4.0)                                                                                                                  [       17 ][ FAIL ]

    -j [N], --jobs[=N]          Allow N jobs at once; infinite jobs with no arg.
    -k, --keep-going            Keep going when some targets can't be made.
    -l [N], --load-average[=N], --max-load[=N]
    Don't start multiple jobs unless load is below N.
    -L, --check-symlink-times   Use the latest mtime between symlinks and target.

By commenting '$(MAKETUNING)' the build went through. Should it prepare
a patch for this or is there may another solution ?

How much memory does your build system have?

Hmm, the make file already has 2GB per process set up.

https://git.ipfire.org/?p=ipfire-2.x.git;a=blob;f=lfs/dnsdist;h=9f2040f16583e033f624e24415953396a4d9e526;hb=HEAD#l40

So it will launch one compiler process per 2GB of memory. Obviously less than one isn’t possible.

You can try filtering out “-pipe” from the CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS, so that the assembler will be stared after the compiler is done and not in parallel. That will also save a couple of megabytes, but probably not a massive lot.

In general I can recommend to add more memory to your build system. 4GB seems to be a bit of a sweet spot. More than that normally does not make any difference.

Best,
-Michael

OK, will give it may a try.

Yeah, will need a new machine for this since my good old JNC9C eats 3GB
max :-| . But may some day the Weihnachtsmann comes via wormhole a
little earlier and funds some new hardware ;-) .
