[pkg-lxc-devel] Bug#1104545: lxc-templates: building Debian lxc containers fails on loong64

[Paul Gevers]

Package: lxc-templates
Version: 3.0.4.89.gc128b96-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

When setting up the loong64 workers for ci.debian.net last year, I had 
to hack a bit to get things working. I forgot that the lxc-debian 
template didn't work and report this bug. Last month, the containers 
stopped being updated with the following error:

lxc-create: autopkgtest-unstable-loong64.new: ../src/lxc/confile.c: 
set_config_personality: 1432 Invalid argument - Unsupport\
ed personality "loong64"
lxc-create: autopkgtest-unstable-loong64.new: ../src/lxc/parse.c: 
lxc_file_for_each_line_mmap: 129 Failed to parse config fil\
e "/var/lib/lxc/autopkgtest-unstable-loong64.new/config" at line 
"lxc.arch = loong64"
lxc-create: autopkgtest-unstable-loong64.new: 
../src/lxc/tools/lxc_create.c: lxc_create_main: 318 Failed to create 
container \
autopkgtest-unstable-loong64.new
ERROR:autopkgtest-build-lxc:Command 
'['/usr/share/autopkgtest/lib/build-lxc.sh', 
'--keyring=/usr/share/keyrings//debian-ports\
-archive-keyring.gpg', 'debian', 'unstable', 'loong64', 
'/tmp/debci-lxc-customize-unstable-9izhNGk4AJZ.sh']' returned non-zer\
o exit status 1.


I worked around the issue with this local change (which is no patch):

loongson at ci-worker-loong64-01:/usr/share/lxc/templates$ diff 
lxc-debian.org lxc-debian
619c619
< lxc.arch = $arch
---
 > lxc.arch = loongarch64
