Are you using docker?  If so, then this is a dup of https://github.com/moby/moby/pull/42681

I've reproduced this using docker (version 20.10.5+dfsg1-1+b5 from Debian 11 fwiw) but also podman-3.2.3-0.11.module+el8.4.0+12050+ef972f71.x86_64 on RHEL 8.4 for the host.

RHEL 8.4 podman doesn't have a seccomp profile that works with the newer clone3 syscall used in RHEL 9 binaries.  For now, you need to run it with --security-opt seccomp=unconfined.  This will be addressed in a future RHEL 8 release.

This appears to affect more than just te clone() syscall. I verified this on a RHEL 7 and RHEL 8 host using the RHEL 9 container image:

[root@rhel7 ~]# podman run -it registry.access.redhat.com/ubi9-beta/ubi bash
[root@e094e2ec5677 /]# curl www.redhat.com
curl: (6) getaddrinfo() thread failed to start



But, this works fine:
[root@rhel7 ~]# podman run -it --security-opt seccomp=unconfined registry.access.redhat.com/ubi9-beta/ubi bash
[root@3416996cb2fe /]# curl www.redhat.com
[root@3416996cb2fe /]#

could you please check how your seccomp profile looks like?

A  seccomp profile, that deals correctly with new syscalls, looks like the following:

$ head -3 /usr/share/containers/seccomp.json
{
	"defaultAction": "SCMP_ACT_ERRNO",
	"defaultErrnoRet": 38,

If there is no defaultErrnoRet, then the runtime uses by default EPERM causing glibc to fail.

After investigation, the Seccomp profile in RHEL's containers/common is not correct; the latest upstream version will return ENOSYS and not EPERM, which will cause libc in the container to assume (correctly) the kernel does not have support for the new syscall and fall back to older syscalls. We'll need this in RHEL 8.x and 9.0 both.

containers-common-1-2.module+el8.5.0+12582+56d94c81 shipped with RHEL 8.5 contains the following seccomp.json config:

# rpm -qf /usr/share/containers/seccomp.json
containers-common-1-2.module+el8.5.0+12582+56d94c81.noarch


# head -n5  /usr/share/containers/seccomp.json 
{
	"defaultAction": "SCMP_ACT_ERRNO",
	"defaultErrnoRet": 38,
	"archMap": [
		{



So I think this is fixed in RHEL 8 already.  Users just need to update.  Someone will need to check RHEL 9 containers-common.

RHEL 9 Beta ships containers-common-1-2.module+el9.0.0+12467+378c8264 which ships this seccomp.json:  

# rpm2cpio ../containers-common-1-2.module+el9.0.0+12467+378c8264.noarch.rpm | cpio -id
480 blocks

# head -n5 ./usr/share/containers/seccomp.json 
{
	"defaultAction": "SCMP_ACT_ERRNO",
	"defaultErrnoRet": 38,
	"archMap": [
		{

@jnovy can you verify the containers-common that's we're pointing at RHEL 9 and 8.6 when you get a chance please?

Derrick or Tom, 
I tried to write some docText. Can you check it please? 
Many thanks.

The seccomp.json rules were fixed in the way that the profile is not delivered from the main upstream branch of c/common but the oldest vendored version of c/common in podman, skopeo and buildah:
