           Summary: Patch to allow proper parallel build execution
           Product: Linux XFS
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2008/11/16/for-a-parallel-
                    world-case-study-n-4-jobserver-unavailable
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: xfsprogs
        AssignedTo: xfs-master at oss.sgi.com
        ReportedBy: flameeyes at gentoo.org


The patch I'm attaching fixes "jobserver unavailable" errors when using parallel
make in xfsprogs, this allows for much shorter build times on modern multicore
systems. On my 8-way system make -j16 does not fail, so I guess the buildsystem
is otherwise parallel make safe.

HTH,
Diego
