Issue with run amd64 images on mac arm m1 after recreate podman machine

[arzahs]

Issue Description

I got a weird error qemu-x86_64-static: QEMU internal SIGSEGV {code=MAPERR, addr=0x20} when trying to run a container with amd64 arch on the arm Macbook after recreating machine with latest machine init.
It worked well before.

Steps to reproduce the issue

The issue is reproducing for me on all mac machines which has an arm processor.

1. Remove the old podman machine
2. Create a new podman machine using

podman machine init --rootful --now

3. Try to run the image with amd64 architecture. I tried different images with the same result. But for example:

podman run --rm --arch=amd64 node node --help

Describe the results you received

I got error with qemo:

  --abort-on-uncaught-exception
                              aborting instead of exiting causes a

This issue is expected to be resolved with Rosetta support.

@tnk4on But how did it work before? I have another installation with the older machine where it works.

I see the difference only in the machine image.
It works on:

But it doesn't work on new machine:

[arzahs]

So, after additional testing it works with recent fedora 39 build. When you create machine with hardcoded previous
image.

Example:

podman machine init --disk-size 60 --rootful --cpus=4 --memory=8192 --image https://builds.coreos.fedoraproject.org/prod/streams/stable/builds/39.20240407.3.0/aarch64/fedora-coreos-39.20240407.3.0-applehv.aarch64.raw.gz

[zoman-abhishek]

This works, really helpful.

[jagibson]

Also got me past the error

[Luap99]

This is most likely a qemu-user-static regression then if it worked before so you should check rpm -q qemu-user-static on the working version and the non working version.

[Luap99]

sounds like https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2168

I move this to a discussion as this is not really a podman bug and given the Rosetta implementation should make it in the next version

[spolti]

for now, using f39 as suggested by @arzahs have fixed the issue here.

[stevpier]

podman is not working for me on MacOS; I've tried 5.0.3, 5.1.0-RC1, and 4.9.4. I've tried enabling rosetta. I've tried the alternate machine image (I get 'Error: short-name resolution enforced but cannot prompt without a TTY' from that image on all podman versions).

resolved? getting same error

[sandangel]

Hi, I'm using linux aarch64 and get the same issue. Is there any workaround like updating qemu-user-static?

[reestr]

When is a new fedora coreos image going to be rebuilt and is this going to contain the fix?

[nr23730]

The issue is still existing. I manually compiled qemu 9.0.2 on fedora 40 and the issue https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2168 is resolved.
However, running amd64 images still produces the same error.
