I think I am seeing an issue with file handles going stale in /psf mounts during code compilation. I am running Fedora Core 10 x86_64 under Parallels v4.0.3810 and have a psf-mounted folder that contains approximately 2000 C++ source code files. The reason I am building within a psf-mounted folder is because the folder is a working copy of a subversion check out.
When I run ``make'' on the fedora side, things progress for a while and then eventually abort due to a rather puzzling looking error.
When I try to re-invoke ``make'', it just hangs in the dependency checking phase. Furthermore, if I perform a ``find'' on the target directory where all the object files reside, the ``find'' hangs when it reaches a certain nested directory. I have attempted rebooting Fedora, restarting the Parallels Desktop, as well as uninstalling and reinstalling the Parallels Tools, all to no avail. On the OS X side, I see nothing wrong with the subdirectories that are hanging on the Fedora side. If I remove these subdirectories on the OS X side and reinvoke ``make'' on the Fedora side, it starts building again and eventually reaches the exact same "operation not permitted error" and results in hangs again. If I copy the entire source code into onto a non-psf volume in Fedora, things build fine -- no error.
I wonder if there is some sort of file count limit causing the problem. FYI, the number of files created during ``make'' are 2132. Maybe anything above 2048 files is causing a problem?
For the time being I think I will need to abandon /psf style mounts and will mount via NSF instead. While the work-around of copying all source code into a Fedora-owned mount does work, it is not desirable from a code development point of view because I prefer to work from a single subversion copy and perform builds on all architectures relative to that copy.
