Hi FreeBSD folks,
I'm having trouble compiling the java/jdk15 package. I've downloaded the
files from Sun and eyesbeyond, as per usual. When I go to the jdk15
directory and do 'make' the compilation starts and runs for an hour or two
and then grinds to a halt with the following error message;
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
gmake[3]: Leaving directory
`/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/control/build/bsd-i586/hotspot-i586/tmp/bsd_i486_compiler2/jvmg'

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The PC I'm using has a 2.3GHz Pentium, with 128MB memory and 70GB free
disk space
running FreeBSD-6.1PRERELEASE. Interestingly, when I run 'make' and do 'top'
the compilation process steadily grows to 128MB in size and then stays at
that size until it grinds to a halt.
I was under the impression that FreeBSD imposed a default maximum process
size of 512MB, maybe that's changed or I was wrong (anyone ??). After
Googling, I found that the way to increase the maximum process size was to
add the following entries to /boot/loader.conf and reboot;
root$ more /boot/loader.conf
kern.maxdsiz="1073741824" # 1GB
kern.dfldsiz="1073741824" # 1GB
kern.maxssiz="134217728" # 128MB
I did this and tried compiling jdk15 again but it made no difference.
So I had the idea that another way to increase the amount of virtual
memory available is to increase the amount of swap memory available (correct
??) which I did (to 1GB) as described in the Handbook here
(http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/adding-swap-space.html).
This I did, and when I do 'top' it shows up as available swap memory but
when I tried compiling jdk15 again it also made no difference.
I've also checked my resource limits (ulimit) but they look reasonable to
me;
root$ ulimit -SHacdflmnpstuv
core file size (blocks, -c) unlimited
data seg size (kbytes, -d) 524288
file size (blocks, -f) unlimited
max locked memory (kbytes, -l) unlimited
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files (-n) 1735
pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 1
stack size (kbytes, -s) 65536
cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes (-u) 867
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
For info, I also have java/linux-sun-jdk14 installed with linprocfs
mounted (to bootstrap the jdk15 installation) but I don't think this is
related to my problem.
I'm at a bit of a loss what to do next. Do I need to buy some more memory
for my PC (just to compile jdk15) or is there anything else I can try or
change in FreeBSD which may help me ?
Any help is much appreciated.
Ken
