Hi, Debian is using among other machines Sun Fire T2000 machines for building the current sparc port and for the development of the sparc64 one. We are experiencing random non-reproducible segmentation faults when doing parallel building, calling make with -jX and X > 1. This seems to happen more and more as X increases. We seems to experience that only with GCC, but that might be due to the fact that these machines are build daemons and that GCC is the most used program. When it happens we get this kind of error: | /build/buildd-qemu_1.1.0+dfsg-1-sparc64-dWbLRR/qemu-1.1.0+dfsg/target-i386/translate.c: | In function 'disas_insn': | /build/buildd-qemu_1.1.0+dfsg-1-sparc64-dWbLRR/qemu-1.1.0+dfsg/target-i386/translate.c:7642:1: | internal compiler error: Segmentation fault | Please submit a full bug report, | with preprocessed source if appropriate. | See <file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.6/README.Bugs> for instructions. | The bug is not reproducible, so it is likely a hardware or OS problem. We don't have this kind of issue with other machines (mostly UltraSparc II and III) setup in the same way. Given it happens on all UltraSparc T1 based machines, hosted at different places in the world, we doubt it's a hardware issue (RAM for example). We have seen the issue with both kernels 2.6.32 and 3.2. Do you maybe have an idea about what could be the issue, and how to debug/solve it?
