Hello Khem, all,
I am hitting a race condition during eglibc do_stage.
do_stage() mentions it implements a workaround for a possible race,
but I do not understand what races.
do_stage() {
# Installing directly into staging creates some races between existing
# glibc-initial files and us. We could use a new DESTDIR but we may as
# well just copy the data installed by do_install
cp -pPR
/home/leon/sandbox/gtd100/openembedded/tmp/work/ppce500v2-angstrom-linux-gnuspe/eglibc-2.10-r7.1/image/*
/home/leon/sandbox/gtd100/openembedded/tmp/staging/ppce500v2-angstrom-linux-gnuspe/
}
Note that the temporary files it tries to copy:
NOTE: generation of binary locales disabled. this may break i18n!

After failure, indeed some other-named temporary files where left,
indicating there was still activity going on:

Is it that the do_install() is racing with do_stage() here?
Must we add a task dependency to prevent concurrent tasking here?
Regards,
