Description Mikuláš Patočka 2012-09-27 18:31:03 UTC

Description of problem:
Make exits with internal error

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
make-3.81-20.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
not reproducible, it is supposedly a race condition

Steps to Reproduce:
I ran "make -j2 2>&1|tee mk.log" to build RHEL 6 kernel.

Actual results:
drivers/input/mouse/sentelic.c: In function 'fsp_init':
drivers/input/mouse/sentelic.c:827: error: implicit declaration of function 'kzalloc'
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
drivers/input/mouse/sentelic.c:827: error: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
make[3]: *** [drivers/input/mouse/sentelic.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [drivers/input/mouse] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers/input] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
make: INTERNAL: Exiting with 3 jobserver tokens available; should be 2!


Expected results:
make should not exit with an internal error

request at this time.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate, in the next release of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
