@zygoon @kde@lemmy.kde.social @kde kernel 3.10 was released more than 10 years ago and received a last update in 2017. Is that really a kernel still used in the wild?
Looking at https://lxr.kde.org/search?%21v=kf5-qt5&_filestring=&_string=sched.h, KDE does not do a clone3 directly. It's likely done by a dependency of Plasma :( But I might be wrong as I'm definitively not an expert in syscall
@carlschwan @kde@lemmy.kde.social @kde@floss.social
Yeah, RHEL 7 uses it out of the box and is still supported, at least until June 2024: https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/end-maintenance-red-hat-enterprise-linux-7-almost-here
@zygoon @carlschwan @kde@lemmy.kde.social @kde@floss.social It's likely coming from some usage of libseccomp somewhere. This also afflicts the container stack and such, which is why RHEL 9 containers on RHEL 7 are not supported.
Container/sandbox runtimes using libseccomp need to explicitly always allow clone3() through, or otherwise it will not fail correctly on RHEL 7.
@Conan_Kudo @carlschwan @kde@lemmy.kde.social @kde@floss.social yeah, I strongly suspect seccomp. I’m debugging this now and I will share updates when I get to the bottom of the problem.
@zygoon @carlschwan @kde@lemmy.kde.social @kde@floss.social The clone3() call is done implicitly and automatically by glibc. It started with glibc 2.34. This is most likely a problem in the Ubuntu Core 22 runtime that KDE snaps are built on.
The fix is to patch out the logic that uses it for clone() in Ubuntu's glibc.
