RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Adrian Reber 2020-02-19 18:21:20 UTC
Trying to run easybuild in a rootless containers gives me a fuse-overlayfs segfault.

fuse-overlayfs-0.7.2-2.module+el8.2.0+5768+3759792f.x86_64
podman-1.6.4-2.module+el8.2.0+5364+301aa566.x86_64

Process 24374 (fuse-overlayfs) of user 1000 dumped core.
                                                
Stack trace of thread 24374:

Steps to reproduce (rootless):

$ cat Dockerfile.ohpc-gnu9-easybuild
FROM quay.io/ohpc/ohpc-gnu9:1.9.9

MAINTAINER The OpenHPC Project

RUN useradd -ms /bin/bash openhpc

RUN yum -y install EasyBuild-ohpc && \
    yum -y install patch make perl && \
    yum clean all

WORKDIR /home/openhpc
USER openhpc

ENV PATH="/opt/ohpc/pub/libs/easybuild/4.1.1/software/EasyBuild/4.1.1/bin:${PATH}"
ENV PYTHONPATH="/opt/ohpc/pub/libs/easybuild/4.1.1/software/EasyBuild/4.1.1/lib/python3.6/site-packages"

# This way all commands passed into the container are executed in a
# login shell which is necessary to get lmod working. Commands
# need to be enclosed in quotes.
ENTRYPOINT ["/bin/bash", "-l", "-c"]

$ podman build . -f Dockerfile.ohpc-gnu9-easybuild --tag=ohpc-gnu9-easybuild:1.9.9 
$ podman run ohpc-gnu9-easybuild:1.9.9 'eb --robot lz4-1.9.2-GCCcore-8.3.0.eb'

Now it will abort and the segfault from above can be seen in the logs. 

The segfault does not happen when running as root.

Comment 1 Giuseppe Scrivano 2020-02-19 21:44:41 UTC
it is fixed upstream with:

commit 214d606084453f0d2831317a9048a3cbc554fcc4
Author: Giuseppe Scrivano <gscrivan>
Date:   Wed Jan 15 00:02:43 2020 +0100

    main: check if file is whiteout
    
    when doing a lookup, make sure the returned file is not a whiteout for
    functions that expect the file to exist.
    
    Close: https://github.com/containers/fuse-overlayfs/issues/169
    
    Signed-off-by: Giuseppe Scrivano <gscrivan>


I had to add bzip2 to the Dockerfile for the command to complete
