Comment 2 David King 2017-12-11 13:50:06 UTC

Disabling O_TMPFILE support in the bundled libglnx (in flatpak and the bundled ostree) fixes this, but it is an open question as to whether glibc or the kernel caused this regression in the first place (as apparently, it happens with older versions of flatpak too).

Comment 3 Jiri Koten 2017-12-11 16:47:44 UTC

It's mostl likely caused by the kernel. I have tested the rhel-7.5 userspace with 7.4.z kernel-3.10.0-693.5.2.el7 and I don't get the error.
