One (of four) in-place source-based updates of head/amd64 from r311640 -> r311678 failed twice for me in "make buildworld" (at slightly different points during the build). The first retry got a bit further; the second completed successfully.
I have a typescript of the entire thing, so I'll make that available in <http://www.catwhisker.org:~david/FreeBSD/head>. The reason that there were 4 updates is that I have to machines (my laptop and a build machine, "freebeast"), each of which builds its normal kernel ("CANARY" for the laptop; "GENERIC" for the build machine), then I've also been testing building & running with the EARLY_AP_TEST option enabled in the kernel. And while I could do that by merely building the additional kernel in the "normal" environment and giving it a "smoke test" every once in a while, I chose to duplicate the entire slice, then add the EARLY_AP_TEST option to the kernels in questions. In any case, it was the EARLY_AP_TEST on the build machine that had the apparent issue. So, in <http://www.catwhisker.org:~david/FreeBSD/head>, you'll find typescript_r311678 (9MB), as well as typescript_r311678.gz (780KB). I use the "_bw" csh alias to do the builds; as described in <http://www.catwhisker.org/~david/FreeBSD/upgrade.html>, that alias (ultimately) expands to: setenv TMPDIR /tmp && \ id && \ mount && \ cd /usr/src && \ uname -a && \ date && \ make -j16 buildworld && \ date && \ make -j16 buildkernel && \ date && \ rm -fr /boot/modules.old && \ cp -pr /boot/modules{,.old} && \ make installkernel && \ date && \ pushd /usr/ports && \ pushd x11/nvidia-driver && \ make clean ; popd ; popd && \ date && \ mergemaster -U -u 0022 -p && \ date && \ rm -fr /usr/include.old && \ date && \ mv /usr/include{,.old} && \ date && \ rm -fr /usr/share/man && \ date && \ make installworld && \ date && \ mergemaster -F -U -u 0022 -i && \ date && \ make delete-old && \ date && \ df -k There's a copy of the machine's (verbose) dmesg.boot at <http://www.catwhisker.org/~david/FreeBSD/history/freebeast.12_dmesg.txt>. I have 2 local modifications to the tree: 1) The hack to src/sys/conf/newvers.sh, discussed on <http://www.catwhisker.org/~david/FreeBSD/history/>. 2) A change I had made several days ago to src/Makefile.inc1, augmenting ITOOLS with "env" (as some installation step apparently needed it). I hadn't got around to testing to determine if it's still needed. As for why it seeme dto hit the EARLY_AP_TEST and not the GENERIC one...? No clue -- dumb luck, I suppose: that should have no effect once the machine has attained multi-user mode.... Peace, david -- David H.
