 Posted: Thu Jul 01, 2004 5:21 pm Post subject: distcc -- what am I doing wrong ??? |
 |
|
I'm installing 2004.2, its pretty much completly installed.. i just cant boot yet... ( a whole nother story... ). I'm curretnly booting from the cd, mounting my drives, chrooting to /mnt/gentoo, mount /proc.
curretnly I'm redoing my kernel, make dep
and I though the kernel would use the distcc and complie a lot faster than it is... it been running for 1hr on a Dual PIII 550Mhz with 512M of memory. I have attached some info that I think should help anyone willing to help me.. if you need more, just ask...
make.conf
| Code: |
# These settings were set by the catalyst build script that automatically built this stage
# Please consult /etc/make.conf.example for a more detailed example
CFLAGS="-mcpu=pentium3 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
# CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
MAKEOPTS="-j16"
FEATURES="distcc"
DISTCC_DIR="/tmp/.distcc"
#Netselect is currently unable to handle ipv6, changing to Deep Test
GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp:///ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/"
USE="X gtk gnome -alsa apache2 gtk2 kerberos"
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86"
|
My Path:
| Code: |
echo $PATH
/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/i386-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.3
|
| Code: | I've ran :
USE='-*' emerge --nodeps distcc
on the gentoo box. I will redothe emerge distcc, after I can boot the box.
livecd etc # less passwd |grep distcc
distcc:x:240:2:distccd:/dev/null:/bin/false
livecd bin # ./distcc-config --get-hosts
localhost stg21 stg24 stg25 stg26 stg27 stg28
stg21 stg24 stg25 stg26 stg27 stg28 are all running: distccKnopix
http://opendoorsoftware.com/cgi/http.pl?p=distccKNOPPIX
all the stg* boxes are PIII 700Mhz

I think some packages disable distcc compiling because it breaks things, like xorg and xfree... the kernel might be doing that as well. But one hour on a dual P3 for a make dep? That sounds quite extreme.... I think you might have other problems there, but I don't know what they might be...

If you're only compiling your kernel, distcc doesn't help out with that as far as I know. I know you can make it distribute kernel compile jobs, but 20 min is about all it should take max on a machine like that. For a kernel, it'd be safer to compile it on the local machine anyhow (unless all the other architectures are identical). If all you're compiling is the kernel and you're concerned about distcc not distributing, I wouldn't worry about it.
