Hi, I'm having trouble building webkit2gtk3-2.34.1 for i686 in rawhide.
An example build failure [1] looks like:
/usr/bin/ld.gold: fatal error: lib/libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37.55.4: mmap:
failed to allocate 2108254132 bytes for output file: Cannot allocate memory
Any ideas? I don't believe the builder is actually running out of memory
because I'm using %limit_build and because a normal OOM almost always
results in a SIGKILL. This issue seems to occur reliably (I tried three
builds, it died three times) and only affects rawhide and only i686. F35
is fine and all other architectures are fine.
An OOM is when the total memory usage of the system builds up over time.
What has happened here is that the linker has tried to allocate 2Gb at
once as a single chunk and the kernel was unable to do that.
Is there a reason for using gold? Maybe the default bfd linker would
manage to use less memory?
