Created attachment 205004 [details] log of make buildkernel Here is the setting: - a ZFS filesystem zroot/usr/src-stable is mounted at /usr/src and contains sources for 12-STABLE r348980; - a ZFS filesystem /zroot/usr/obj/usr/src-stable is mounted at /usr/obj/usr/src-stable; - the file /usr/obj/usr/src is a symlink to /usr/obj/usr/src-stable. make buildkernel fails with the error message reported in the attachement. It might be useful to know that this setting is the result of the following old setting: - a ZFS filesystem zroot/usr/src-stable is mounted at /usr/src-stable and contains sources for 12-STABLE, whatever revision; - a ZFS filesystem /zroot/usr/obj/usr/src-stable is mounted at /usr/obj/usr/src-stable. Getting back to the old setting solves the problem, but of course we should try to get the new setting to work too. Moreover, using the old setting, if a softlink /usr/src to /usr/src-stable is created, I can execute make buildkernel successfully both from /usr/src and /usr/src-stable. If I execute it from /usr/src, I can read lines such as "Building /usr/obj/usr/src-stable..."
