As the error suggests, you'll want to see if you can upgrade your Linux Kernel. Since you're using WSL, you can run: wsl --update

[niudai]

running into the same error when I'm using debian 10

[arno-fukuda]

Same here with Debian 10.
Using Google Cloud Compute Engine and can't upgrade beyond 4.19

edit: Ended up having to change to a different image with Debian 12.

Already tried it, but didn't work :( (The update itself don't work)

[mvgiacomello]

Same error using the latest oven/bun docker image with --platform linux/amd64.

Not worked

+1, any updates?

pidfd_open isn't supported by gVisor - the container sandbox used in GCP for all container-based products.

linux/arm64 - https://gvisor.dev/docs/user_guide/compatibility/linux/arm64/#pidfd_open
linux/amd64 - https://gvisor.dev/docs/user_guide/compatibility/linux/amd64/#pidfd_open

This means bun cannot be used as a runtime in GCP products including:

• Cloud Functions
• Cloud Run
• App Engine
• Google Kubernetes Engine
• Cloud ML Engine

This also affects any 3rd party clouds that use GCP infrastructure (I believe Vercel is one, I imagine there's a few).

Please remove this kernel call or provide an alternate path when it's not available.

EDIT: some details to reproduce, the call is triggered somewhere inside the GCP authentication library. So you can use bun, until you try and authenticate to use any other GCP service (such as pubsub, firestore, cloud tasks, anything). They all use the same underlying auth library. If you were to try Google's PubSub sample inside cloud run using bun/docker it should fail. I'm sure there are other code paths that trigger this system call but this is the one we're hitting.

This function was added in version 5.3 of the Linux kernel and doesn't appear to have been backported. Either bun needs to add a check/workaround for older versions, or you are forced to upgrade.

[jeloi]

I am encountering this while using google-auth-library package as well.

[programeoww]

Linux kernel must be >= 5.13, you are using 4.4

[royal]

Linux kernel must be >= 5.13, you are using 4.4

As explained here, users of GCP container-based environments have no control over the linux kernel version.

This works fine when using node as a runtime. It's a bug in bun.

[Electroid]

To be clear, we will fix this so Bun works properly in GCP environments.

I am also experiencing this error using official oven/bun:debian docker image.

[magnussp]

I encounter the same error when using puppeteer together with the latest oven/bun:slim image.

[Jarred-Sumner]

I have implemented a workaround in #6724.

When the next version of Bun is released please run bun upgrade. In the meantime, if you wait a few hours, bun upgrade --canary should work.
