I now recollect the whole context of how this bug originated. Re- opening this bug for now. I am surprise that you mentioned being able to build recent kernels. The bug started with this failure.. INSTALL drivers/mtd/sm_ftl.ko INSTALL drivers/mtd/ssfdc.ko INSTALL drivers/mtd/ubi/ubi.ko INSTALL drivers/mtd/ubi/gluebi.ko INSTALL drivers/net/arcnet/arc-rawmode.ko INSTALL drivers/net/appletalk/ipddp.ko INSTALL drivers/net/arcnet/arc-rimi.ko INSTALL drivers/net/arcnet/arcnet.ko INSTALL drivers/net/arcnet/capmode.ko INSTALL drivers/net/arcnet/com20020-pci.ko make[3]: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable INSTALL drivers/net/arcnet/com20020.ko /bin/sh: 1: Cannot fork/bin/sh: 1: Cannot fork scripts/Makefile.modinst:35: recipe for target 'drivers/net/arcnet/com20020.ko' failed make[3]: *** [drivers/net/arcnet/com20020.ko] Error 2 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... scripts/Makefile.modinst:35: recipe for target 'drivers/net/arcnet/com20020-pci.ko' failed make[3]: *** [drivers/net/arcnet/com20020-pci.ko] Error 2 /bin/sh: 1: Cannot fork scripts/Makefile.modinst:35: recipe for target 'drivers/net/arcnet/capmode.ko' failed make[3]: *** [drivers/net/arcnet/capmode.ko] Error 2 Makefile:1122: recipe for target '_modinst_' failed make[2]: *** [_modinst_] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/rrs/Community/linux' debian/ruleset/targets/image.mk:34: recipe for target 'debian/stamp/install/linux-image-4.4.2+' failed make[1]: *** [debian/stamp/install/linux-image-4.4.2+] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/rrs/Community/linux' debian/ruleset/local.mk:105: recipe for target 'kernel_image' failed make: *** [kernel_image] Error 2 20:27 ♒♒♒ ☹ => 2 rrs@chutzpah:~/Community/linux (stable-44)$ This has been reported in the BTS. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=772664 So, one of the way to workaround the bug, was to increase the number of allowed processes for a user. But that really did not help. That is when I used --rootcmd sudo, because such limitations do not apply to the root user. So, this bug should just be merged with 772664. -- Ritesh Raj Sarraf | http://people.debian.org/~rrs Debian - The Universal Operating System
