Hi,

“no more sessions” comes from this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
int
session_open(Authctxt *authctxt, int chanid)
{
	Session *s = session_new();
	debug("session_open: channel %d", chanid);
	if (s == NULL) {
		error("no more sessions");
		return 0;
	}

[...]

}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Would be interesting to run sshd in verbose/debug mode and see why we
hit that; it could be because the maximum number of sessions has been
reached or something.

Ouch.  Normally, thanks to memoization, ‘guix deploy’ opens only one
session per machine.  (I think it works well with the 25 local build
machines behind berlin; it’s also fine for a small set of machines I
take care of at work.)

Interesting.  That gives us a hint.  Could you add a ‘pk’ in
‘open-machine-ssh-session*’ to see how many connections it opens?

Thanks for your feedback!

Ludo’.
