Hello,
Running the test suite (`make check`) gives me one of the tests failed.
This is from test-suite.log
test-name: pivot-root
location: /home/masha/src/guix/tests/syscalls.scm:156
source:
+ (test-equal
+ "pivot-root"
+ #t
+ (match (pipe)
+ ((in . out)
+ (match (clone (logior CLONE_NEWUSER CLONE_NEWNS SIGCHLD))
+ (0
+ (dynamic-wind
+ (const #t)
+ (lambda ()
+ (close in)
+ (call-with-temporary-directory
+ (lambda (root)
+ (let ((put-old (string-append root
"/real-root")))
+ (mount "none" root "tmpfs")
+ (mkdir put-old)
+ (call-with-output-file
+ (string-append root "/test")
+ (lambda (port) (display "testing\n" port)))
+ (pivot-root root put-old)
+ (write (file-exists? "/test") out)
+ (close out)))))
+ (lambda () (primitive-exit 0))))
+ (pid (close out)
+ (let ((result (read in)))
+ (close in)
+ (and (zero? (match (waitpid pid)
+ ((_ . status)
+ (status:exit-val status))))
+ (eq? #t result))))))))
expected-value: #t
actual-value: #f
result: FAIL
The summary is:
# TOTAL: 777
# PASS: 772
# SKIP: 4
# XFAIL: 0
# FAIL: 1
# XPASS: 0
# ERROR: 0
I'm novice in Guix, can anyone give me a clue?
Thanks,
Maria.

Can you please write the type of system you are building guix on?
We recently discovered that on systemd based systems pivot-root
might fail because of shared mountpoints.

Actually there are two possibilities. I'm trying to narrow this down now.
There is a bug: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183461
in our bug tracker that might be affecting you, or the shared mounts
I noticed much later. I'm going to investigate this and report back.

I've created a vm image with a current Ubuntu 16.04 yesterday, installed
the guix binary tarball, and did a make check in a guix environment guix.
This error was not shown in my case.
My uname -r is:
4.10.0-28-generic
This test should be skipped, if kernel version > 4.7.5.
Can you please send the output of uname -r ?

Ok, this is a known linux kernel bug, that entered the upstream linux
kernel with version 4.7.5.
Ubuntu backported the commit causing this behaviour to 4.4.0. This is
actually safe to ignore,
Do you see problems related to pivot_root anywhere else than this test?

No, there's no other problems with that.

Hi Maria,
Thanks for your report. In practice you can safely ignore this test
failure. We had a similar report earlier that this fails on Ubuntu:
<https://bugs.gnu.org/25476>.
Something we should do, though, is to at least skip the test when we
know we’re using a faulty kernel. Currently we already have:
;; XXX: Skip this test when running Linux > 4.7.5 to work around
;; <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183461>.
(when (or (not perform-container-tests?)
(version>? (utsname:release (uname)) "4.7.5"))
(test-skip 1))
Gábor, given what you wrote about Ubuntu’s 4.4 kernel, should we
explicitly flag “4.4.0-116-generic” in a similar way? Would it be
enough?
Thank you both!
Ludo’.

Yes, it seems that would be enough.
We also have this "4.4.0-21-generic" for not x86.
Alternatively we can point Ubuntu users to the LTSEnablementStack.
This provides a 4.8 kernel since 16.04.2. (feb. 2017.)

OK, done.
As time passes, this test can no longer run given the constraints
above. We should probably rethink it…

Yeah, well, no big deal.
Thanks,
