Hardware issue or crostini bug

[Joseph Callen]

Hi! 

I am new to ChromeOS and Crostini (IdeaPad Duet 5) so bear with me. 

I enabled #crostini-multi-container so that I could run a fedora 37 as well as debian.

That worked perfectly fine last night and coming in this morning I get:

Launching vmshell failed: Error starting crostini for terminal: 74 (START_LXD_FAILED_SIGNAL)

crosh> vsh termina
(termina) chronos@localhost ~ $ lxc list
Error: Get "http://unix.socket/1.0": dial unix /mnt/stateful/lxd/unix.socket: connect: connection refused

There are a number of kernel panics on the termina vm

And a very unhappy lxd_helper

I submitted a ticket to Lenovo but I am kinda questioning how far I will get there.
Thinking maybe I should just return this device.

Any advice or assistance would be appreciated

Thanks!

Additional information:

- Kernel panics are a red herring. Seems to happen even when just using debian (penguin)

- I am able to reproduce:

1.) remove linux environment

2.) poweroff, poweron

3.) create linux environment

4.) create fedora container via UI

5.) install deps:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Crostini/wiki/howto/run-fedora-linux/

Changing steps, no useradd, the user is already there

The user needs to be added to wheel, and visudo to remove password

install ssd-client, there are pam-sss errors

Use these tools since they are more recent: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/leo/cros-guest-tools/

6.) shutdown all containers and applications

7.) poweroff

8.) start penguin container, lxd does not start

There is an issue with systemd >244.0 not pulling an IPv4 address if /sys is read write due to udev trying to start and blowing up.

This happens on Arch as well. You can write an override file to prevent the issue. There's a known issue in the lxd/lxc tracker.

dqlite SIGILL, IdeaPad Duet 5 has a snapdragon, so I guess this is yet another LXD+ARM issue.

Which OS version? Can you please file feedback and include something distinctive in the description so we can easily find it?

Thanks,

Dave.

This has exactly the same symptoms as https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/256946320 which has been fixed in ChromeOS 109. It's not a hardware issue, but a LXD crash due to an incompatibility with the ARM architecture in a library.

109 is currently in beta, but should arrive in stable next month.

Cheers,

Thanks all!

I can confirm the issue has been resolved with: Version 109.0.5414.41 (Official Build) beta (32-bit)
