#6 "make benchmark" error

[dan_o]

Trying to compile and build on a 32-bit Linux. I
run "make benchmark", which runs with a total elapsed
time of 8:39. Then I get

./bench/perf.sh: ./bench/perf.sh: Input/output error
The following files have been generated or modified:
*.log

make: *** [benchmark] Error 126

Input/output errors generally are tied to factors completely outside of our
control such as faulty/failing hardware controllers, unresponsive NFS
volumes, stalled kernels, and other similar issues. The benchmark runs a
perf.sh script at the end of the benchmark run to tally up and compute the
results. You can run the perf.sh script manually if it got that far into the
benchmark by just invoking the script: sh bench/perf.sh

If you can reliably get the I/O error on perf.sh, I would lean towards
filesystem corruption and would recommend an fsck as soon as possible.

As a compatibility side-note in case you go looking, the perf.sh script no
longer exists in the current version of BRL-CAD (7.6.4 included the
refactoring, if I recall correctly) as it was engulfed into the primary application
for the benchmark suite.

It's presumed that this was indeed a filesystem issue. If you continue to have
this issue with a future version of BRL-CAD, please submit another bug report.
