It is the "imptcp_conndrop.sh" test. I did some testing: I changed the Makefile so that only the "imptcp_conndrop.sh" test will run (https://bpaste.net/show/af9eac014278). # ps -u thomas PID TTY TIME CMD # lsof -u thomas /var/tmp/portage | grep -i thomas | wc -l 0 # su thomas -s "/bin/sh" -c "id && \ ulimit -a && \ cd /var/tmp/portage/app-admin/rsyslog-8.9999/work/rsyslog-8.9999/ && make check" It is very strange... I cannot find the EXACT value. It is sometimes passing the test with "ulimit -n = 1024"... but more often it is failing. Same with 2048... sometimes it will pass, but sometimes the test will fail. Higher value -> lower failure rate; Haven't seen a failure with 3072 yet. -Thomas _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
