Subject: bug#61690: Failure to mount /sys in nested ‘guix shell’ container
Date: Tue, 21 Feb 2023 23:45:20 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87v8jud4e7.fsf@inria.fr> (raw)
Hi!
As reported by Konrad¹, nested ‘guix shell -C’ fails:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix shell -CN guix \
--expose=/var/guix/daemon-socket/socket \
--expose=/gnu/store \
-- guix shell -C coreutils -- ls /
guix shell: error: mount: mount "none" on "/tmp/guix-directory.xO3FIx/sys": Operation not permitted
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Strace shows this:

It does work if the nested ‘guix shell’ uses ‘-CN’ instead of ‘-C’,
thanks to this bit in (gnu build linux-container)
(mount-file-systems root mounts
#:mount-/proc? (memq 'pid namespaces)
#:mount-/sys? (memq 'net
namespaces)) ;<---
The reason for this bug seems to be given here:
https://github.com/nestybox/sysbox/issues/67#issuecomment-726285026
It’s not clear whether there’s anything we can do, other than
recommending ‘-CN’ as well in the nested container.
Thoughts?
Ludo’.
