Oh, and also you (probably) don't want to set the environment variable for running 64 bit guests as I suspect it will unnecessarily restrict the total amount of RAM that they can use.
Re: doing it upstream: the current status of the discussion is here (plus followups): http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-12/msg01697.html (that patch is the equivalent of setting the environment variable for 64 bit hosts running 32 bit guests). Basically there's general agreement that defaulting -R is probably the right thing, but it needs a little more investigation for the interactions with (a) ARM commpage and (b) user specified ulimit -v, and nobody's got round to actually investigating, writing and submitting a clean patch for this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/906922 Title: qemu-arm-static chroots give copious memory errors when setting up java build dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu-linaro/+bug/906922/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
