netavark: failed to delete if podman4: Received a netlink error message Operation not supported (os error 95)

[cevich]

While running recent CI VM F36 images through the podman integration tests, noticed a number of them are failing with this (and similar) errors (annotated logs).. This is NOT happening on previous F36 CI VM images, suggesting a package update has caused a regression. Examining the new images, I see netavark-1.0.3-3.fc36.x86_64 installed, so maybe simply a F37 package update is needed?

yes you have to update to 1.1

[Luap99]

the error happens since kernel 5.19

[cevich]

Does Lokesh do that or is there a button a simpleton like me can press?

[cevich]

Crap so this is broken for everybody using Netavark on F36? Ugh 🤮

[Luap99]

yes broken for everyone
@lsm5 Can we get https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-29c1ba1101 into stable?

[cevich]

Thanks for the quick attention @Luap99

@lsm5 Given the F37 timetable, I think I need to build new CI VM images that side-load this update in F36. Please LMK as soon as a download URL is available somewhere. TIA 😃

[cevich]

Ahh, I see F36 download links in FEDORA-2022-29c1ba1101, never-mind I'll jack those into new images.

[cevich]

Oh, even better: I found a way to bypass the CI-problem in F36 images completely.

@lsm5 urgency--

Details: We're "suppose" to be testing CNI in Fedora N-1, but the number "35" was hard-coded in the build script. I'm fixing that condition now, so CNI will be tested instead of Netavark. That doesn't help users though, only our CI system.

[cevich]

I'm going to close this then, there's no code changes needed and a Fix is working it's way through the process to users.

[lsm5]

yes broken for everyone @lsm5 Can we get https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-29c1ba1101 into stable?

it should land in stable in 24 hrs or less.

Thanks @lsm5
