Description:
This error is very hard to reproduce. It happens in the innermost loop
in nightly jobs. Four jobs run in parallel and three of them will pass this
point around 800 times each night, the fourth job only about 100 times.
The error happens about once every second week, i.e. about once out of
50000 times. The data supplied below was collected two months ago but
similar reports have been generated on Nov 17th, Dec 1st, Dec 17th, Jan 2nd
and Jan 15th.
The main script contains two nested for loops and each time a function do_build
is called. do_build creates a directory /tmp/build.nnnn and 'cd' into it.
A separate script is called to setup some needed files including a Makefile
and then 'make info' is performed.
Normally this works fine but in rare cases when do_build continues the files
are not yet created. Either the setup script has not finished (error in the
kernel or in bash?) or the directory inode is not yet updated (error in
the kernel?). Of course the 'make info' fails when there is no Makefile!
It has taken some time to understand what happens but now some data are
collected and sent to me when 'make info' fails.
Earlier the second 'make' also failed but during the data collection job
the files appear and the second 'make' is now successful.
The build machine has 4 CPUs and 4GB RAM, see info at the bottom.

Resulting mail. N.B. 'ls' reports only one file, the newly created symlink,
and the 'ps fx' result (pstree:) shows that the main script build_node.sh,
pid 23678, has 2 (TWO!) children: pid 23986 running nsetup and pid 24001
running 'ps fx' and 24001 has thus performed 'make info' which failed.
