Hmm, is that a good thing in general? Can't makefile rules be arranged in such a way that one "valgrind-prep" target runs before all the potentially parallel executions of actual tests begin? Independent from the above, I suspect that some of the existing tests cannot run in parallel; I haven't really looked at any of them, but a server-ish tests to open a local port and test interaction with client obviously need to either use different ports or serialize. Perhaps we need a way to mark some tests that cannot be run in parallel even under "make -j"? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
