Hello, unfortunately I can only report an observation, no detailed trackdown yet.

All of a sudden, building ports resp. auto-installing dependecy-builds,
fail with error messages like:
    'chown: /portsworktree/.../work/.../libxyz.a:  no such file'
    or 'bad file descriptor'.

Why I think this is an OS issue:
After reboot, the build successfully completes, while simply re-invoking 'make' keeps failing without reboot (untouched sources of course).


It seems this has been an out-of-space issue...  A little later a write error occurred, clearly reporting there's been no space left.  Cleaning up a few datasets (out of ~30) freed ~100GB and I could keep all the snapshots, which is one of the bigger consumers.
I never observed any strange errors since I had reasonable free space again.

The only non-fitting observation is that a reboot had helped...
But at least 20 of the 30 datasets consume varying space because auto-snapshot-rotation is in use. So I guess snapshots were rotated, which likely freed some space already before the reboot.

I successfully built my usual desktop application collection (~800 ports) on FreeBSD-15.  No issues after zpool cleaning!
Suspecting the 14->15 update was wrong, sorry for the noise.
