I'm pretty confused what is going on here. I am able to completely sync all (and partially build) of Android, with a VM of these specs:
10GB RAM 400GB SSD storage 9 CPU cores
However, when I go to my second machine with the correct RAM needed to build AOSP, it doesn't download all the code! Repo closes the terminal during the "updating files" portion. I am missing core content such as system/core.
Here are the specs of the above machine:
42GB RAM 400GB SSD 5 cores
What is going on here?
If by any chance, the development system on which you are facing a problem is running Ubuntu 22.04, it comes with "systemd-oomd" enabled for improving low-memory which in our case it closes the terminal when doing repo sync / build because of high memory usage and disabling it will fix the issue.
$ systemctl disable --now systemd-oomd
After running this, I was not able to reproduce this issue on my build machine.
