Intermittent segmentation fault running Node emulated with target arm64, host amd64 #215

ajbarber · 2025-01-17T19:08:26Z

Hello, thanks for binfmt.

docker run --privileged --rm tonistiigi/binfmt --version
binfmt/a161c41 qemu/v7.0.0 go/1.18.5

When running

docker buildx build . --platform=arm64 --progress=plain --no-cache

on a Dockerfile which installs node on ubuntu, node --version in the container build intermittently segfaults. I captured it happening with QEMU_STRACE=1 as below.

For comparison I also provide a log with node --version working, at the same point as where the crash occurred above, but this time working, as it is an intermittent problem.

smoke · 2025-01-21T11:51:03Z

I have stumbled on similar thing in different context and ecosystem docker/setup-qemu-action#188

We have a Ruby app depends on quite a bunch of "native" extensions packages - that are packages having to be built through gcc

Targeting linux/amd64,linux/arm64

we have consistent Gem::Ext::BuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. caused by gcc: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault signal terminated program cc1
but that will affect anything built by gcc or similar (nodejs packages, etc.).

Similar thing happened with a Go project needed some stuff built with gcc.

I have also managed to reproduce it locally with qemu v7.

What worked was updating to qemu v8, give it a try if it will help.

ajbarber · 2025-01-21T19:36:27Z

Thanks @smoke. This repo only supports up to v7 though right? In the meantime I will try and get a stack, I can see it has been removed in the core dump logout above.

cakoolen · 2025-01-23T10:43:07Z

I've got a similar thing with regular segfaults in gcc while building C or Go applications. It appears that when I create an image with a more recent version of qemu (8.1.5) which is the latest in the repo and use that to install the emulators, the segfault does not happen.

Is there a reason that the later versions (later than v7) have not been pushed to dockerhub as the latest version?

quarkcore · 2025-01-23T18:04:02Z

Hitting similar issues when compiling php extensions while building a base image on top of php:8.3-fpm-bookworm

neither v7.0.0 nor 8.1.5 are working in this case.

ajbarber · 2025-01-23T19:16:32Z

I have also managed to reproduce it locally with qemu v7.

When you say locally, do you mean outside of a container, just on the CPU?

I've just tried to reproduce with simply qemu-aarch64 v7.2.15, and an ARM64 node binary on my AMD64 metal (no docker) and I can't replicate the segfault.

It could be a qemu-aarch64 user binary issue, or an issue with a c/c++ runtime library on the target container. One way to eliminate the container Linux C/C++ libraries being the cause is to update the Linux version running in docker and see if the problem persists.

(Edited, realised I'm running into this on both ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04)

mserajnik · 2025-01-23T21:21:35Z

I've also started hitting segmentation faults today when building a multi-platform Docker image on GitHub Actions with a ubuntu-24.04 runner targeting linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 (using a common docker/setup-qemu-action@v3 and docker/setup-buildx-action@v3 setup) and found this issue report through docker/setup-qemu-action#188 where a similar problem is described.

In my case, the segmentation faults occur when compiling the CPP application (that is deployed via the Docker image) during the build of the linux/arm64 image (so when QEMU is used):

#17 893.2 c++: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault signal terminated program cc1plus
#17 893.2 Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source (by using -freport-bug).
#17 893.2 See <file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-13/README.Bugs> for instructions.
#17 893.2 make[2]: *** [src/shared/CMakeFiles/shared.dir/build.make:510: src/shared/CMakeFiles/shared.dir/MailerService.cpp.o] Error 4
#17 893.3 make[2]: *** Deleting file 'src/shared/CMakeFiles/shared.dir/MailerService.cpp.o'
#17 893.3 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
#17 912.1 make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:444: src/shared/CMakeFiles/shared.dir/all] Error 2
#17 912.1 make: *** [Makefile:136: all] Error 2

The error occurs at random steps in the compilation process. I've had no issues building this Docker image hundreds of times over the past year until today; the last successful build with the same code revision before the segmentation faults started happening was at 00:00 GMT today (23.01.2025), so it looks like something must've changed/been updated since then (or I somehow got lucky before and didn't hit the issue; that seems a bit unlikely though, considering I've had a segmentation fault in every single one of the six workflow runs I did today).

Edit: Using QEMU 8.1.5 (as suggested by @smoke) instead of 7.0.0 (which is currently still tagged as latest) seems to work for me:

- name: Set up QEMU
  uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v3
  with:
    image: tonistiigi/binfmt:qemu-v8.1.5

Edit 2: Using QEMU 9.2.0 also works fine for me:

- name: Set up QEMU
  uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v3
  with:
    image: tonistiigi/binfmt:qemu-v9.2.0

This works around the compilation issues observed with QEMU v7 (which is still used by docker/setup-qemu-action by default) as described in tonistiigi/binfmt#215.

This works around the compilation issues observed with QEMU 7.x (which is still used by docker/setup-qemu-action by default) as described in tonistiigi/binfmt#215.

smoke · 2025-01-24T06:30:42Z

I have also managed to reproduce it locally with qemu v7.

When you say locally, do you mean outside of a container, just on the CPU?

@ajbarber I have used locally docker run --rm tonistiigi/binfmt:latest --install arm64 which installs qemu v7 binary and build with docker buildx, pretty much what relevant GitHub actions do.

Earlopain · 2025-01-24T08:48:19Z

I'm also encountering this. I'm using the github qemu action to build a variety of ruby versions for different architectures. Since the last 3 days, arm64-v8, ppc64le and s390x started to fail with pretty cryptic and random errors, both during configuring and building:

Some of the errors I encountered

make: *** [Makefile:333: libruby.so.3.5.0] Segmentation fault (core dumped)
make: *** [Makefile:462: miniinit.o] Error 139
make: *** [Makefile:462: miniinit.o] Error 1

configure: error: cannot compute suffix of executables: cannot compile and link
configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs.
configure: error: ANSI C-conforming const and volatile are mandatory
gcc: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault signal terminated program cc1

I run my actions on ubuntu-24.04, and coincidentally there was a runner image update right when this started. I compared builds and with 20250105.1.0 they passed, while with 20250120.5.0 they failed. So, I find it likely that something that was updated in this changelog is responsible: https://github.com/actions/runner-images/releases/tag/ubuntu24%2F20250120.5.

It updates buildx from 0.19.3 to 0.20.0, maybe it is their bug? I have no idea how to verify. The other software updates seem benign. On the other hand, this issue preceeds the buildx release by a few days so these may be two separate things.

~~Using tonistiigi/binfmt:qemu-v8.1.5 seems to solve it for me as well.~~ Nevermind, I got another build failure. But it looks to be much more stable

By limiting it to the only used platform we hopefully can work around issues where files magically matched the ppc64 handler. Example output from dmesg: segfault at 116643c0 ip 00000000004fa380 sp 00007ffe80c32758 error 4 in qemu-ppc64-static[fa380,401000+340000] likely on CPU 6 (core 0, socket 0) Xref: tonistiigi/binfmt#215 Signed-off-by: Felix Moessbauer <felix.moessbauer@siemens.com>

This fixes a qemu build issue observed on the (non versioned) tonistiigi/binfmt:latest@sha256:f6b82a01e1... qemu-user-static deploy image.

ajbarber · 2025-01-24T16:11:18Z

Update:
I've just compiled qemu v7.0.0 on an ubuntu 22.04 container and run in that container about a thousand invocations of qemu-aarch64 npm --version, where npm is based on an ARM node binary, with no seg fault. So at least for my issue as logged above, I can tentatively exclude qemu as the cause. Here I am using the qemu user binary directly, not registering through binfmt as this repo does. I think this eliminates any issue with the C/C++ runtime libraries that qemu pulls in on ubuntu 22.04 too.

So having excluded qemu by running their binary directly, now I suspect the issue is somewhere within binmt or buildx. I don't understand a lot about how the emulator is registered and run in the container using binfmt, so if anyone cares to chime in with some pointers here, that would help me to investigate further.

fmoessbauer · 2025-01-24T17:06:50Z

@ajbarber After some digging I'm pretty sure this issue relates to a kernel hardening. This also explains why various qemu versions are affected. More details can be found in this Debian bug: [1]. This bug first happened after [2] was applied (which later was reverted) and reverted again [3] after a fix for QEMU in Debian was available. Probably Ubuntu included just the kernel patch (revert-revert) but not the QEMU patch which then broke things again.

This apparently fixes sporadic crashes of arm64 image builds, see also [1] and [2]. Ubuntu's version of qemu-user does not seem to have this fixed yet either, therefore inject the current Debian package. In addition, this moves away from the floating docker.io/tonistiigi/binfmt:latest that docker/setup-qemu-action@v3 uses. This loose coupling is questionable, not only in the light of this issue.

ajbarber · 2025-01-24T23:09:45Z

Thanks very much @fmoessbauer. Reading some of those materials you linked, the segfaulting in question of qemu depends not only on release versions, but also the configuration flags passed at build time.

We have maintainers of qemu saying clearly not to configure with --disable-pie or you will get crashes here. But it appears that is precisely what this repo is doing:

binfmt/scripts/configure_qemu.sh

Line 65 in 85908cc

--disable-pie \

To confirm @fmoessbauer's hypothesis, I also replicated the crash/no crash behaviour of qemu provided by this repo by turning off the aslr kernel parameter sysctl kernel.randomize_va_space=0 (off) and 2 (on). 2 leads to a crash as my original issue, 0 does not. If I put on the ubuntu 22.04 shipped qemu on the container instead, which is qemu-aarch64 version 6.2.0 (Debian 1:6.2+dfsg-2ubuntu6.24), I can't replicate the crash with aslr on or off. So in ubuntu's packaging build scripts I'm guessing they have removed the --disable-pie, but I have not confirmed this.

I think qemu was forward patched in 8.1 to deal with things either way: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1763#note_1508827541

So we need either to remove the line above in configure_qemu.sh or [edited for clarity] bump latest tag to qemu > 8.1.

@tonistiigi do you accept PRs?

tonistiigi · 2025-01-24T23:30:16Z

do you accept PRs?

Yes.

Do you have example repro as well for this case?

@saltydk yes exactly, unfortunately it crash in the build process now. It's very unreliable, it worked for 2 weeks after my last comment

saltydk · 2025-02-27T15:28:55Z

The current theory is the kernel bump lead the runners into this issue https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1913 which was fixed only recently in version 9.2.2 which the container used with latest does not run yet.

TC-RubiconIT · 2025-02-27T21:06:17Z

Works for me now with:

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Set up QEMU
        uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v3
        with:
          image: tonistiigi/binfmt:master

Look like the latest tag is still tied to the previous image in Docker Hub.

Earlopain · 2025-02-27T21:10:12Z

No, I made a PR to update qemu to 9.2.2 like suggested here. I was waiting for my builds to finish and with that qemu version everything is green for me as well.

Hopefully this works for others too and when the latest tag its switched over it's finally fixed

We are still facing the segfault while building docker images for linux/arm64. For me, this happens even for different OS runners like Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04.

I tried a few different combinations and they all faced the exact same segfault:

Looks like #244 is also able to reproduce the segfault on the latest 9.2.2.

@jaywonchung I think you likely need to put docker/setup-qemu-action before docker/setup-buildx-action in order for the binfmt version callout to take effect.
