SOLVED: Running out of MEM and SWAP when compiling lr-mame
-
@johnodon i am not sure how many makefile jobs your hardware will support. it calculates it here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/scriptmodules/system.sh#L92-L108
if it allows the maximum 4 (quadcore CPU? not sure how many proc it will report) jobs then that could consume quite a lot of memory.
15 mins into compilation and available memory is already down to 221MB. Is that normal?
i would say so. just let it do its thing for a few hours. it's going to hammer your system until it's done.

Thanks. I let it run overnight but again that was via SSH and I lost my connection. Now that I am doing it on the console, I should be able to see if it moves along.

EDIT: Just saw this...
Compiling src/frontend/mame/luaengine_mem.cpp... g++: fatal error: Killed signal terminated program cc1plus compilation terminated. make[2]: *** [emu.make:2084: ../../../../libretro/obj/x64/libretro/src/emu/emumem_aspace.o] Error 1 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....OK...bad news it failed. Good news is this time it actually told me it failed and I was able to get the log. Bad news is that it doesn't seem to give much of a hint...
-
@johnodon that does look like a classic out of memory type error. is it possible to increase your swap? the alternative would be tweak the retropie scripts to reduce the amount of concurrent build jobs.

This is for a dedicated arcade cab with hand picked ROMs so I have a lot of empty space. I'll give the SWAP 50GB and see what happens.

So, the question becomes why this would even be an issue on an x86 machine with 8GB of RAM?
-
@johnodon like i said it depends on how many processes it's running. if you run
nprocat command line what does it return?don't underestimate how much of a beefy task it is to compile MAME. there's probably not many bigger executables out there.
on a 32-bit rpi it requires 4GB of mem+swap, to run 2 processes (
-j2). your 64-bit and more (4?) processes needs much more memory. likely the script needs adjusting to create a larger temporaryrpSwapswap file for your usecase. -

@johnodon yes, i pointed you towards the script earlier. however the script provides an informed guess rather than a cast-iron guarantee. normally it's enough.
lr-mame is in the experimental packages for a reason...

Gotcha. Thanks for all your help.
