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.
