That could be considerable roadblock for the older kernels out there. Looks like you fail at

Code:

  /* Never gain any more privs during exec */
  if (prctl (PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS, 1, 0, 0, 0) < 0)
    die_with_error ("prctl(PR_SET_NO_NEW_CAPS) failed");

PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS, according to manuals, has been introduced into 3.5 kernels. So, older kernels, including S2 and the several devices with 3.4 are no go, as far as I understand.

From looking around, it seems that there are backports available, though. See https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Sandbox/Seccomp and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=790923 referenced there. Cannot guarantee that it will work, though.

Note that there could be more backports available, I just took one of the first links.

Thank you for taking a look into it. When I switched my PC off I realised that I should have asked whether that error was something that I could/should fix on the device (or in the kernel) or something else in the flatpak-runner.
Now, I understand this is limitation of the old kernel and there might be a workaround. (This is what I love in Linux, there always is a or more workaround.

)
I have checked the links you provided for the backport and found this in the second one: backport NO_NEW_PRIVS

I apply this into the S2's kernel and will re-try.

(By the way, with adding this Flatpak support into the kernel, something else also changed because the sneak-peek function started to work there.

Thanks for that.)

On Nexus 5, despite the added flags in the kernel, Angelfish does not start. Here is the output:

I think I got this error. Did you try to start angelfish on the device in a fingerterm or from a PC logged into the device with ssh? Try to run it on the device!

I run it from fingerterm on device with your new kernel! The Angelfish app cover shows up with its icon but the loading circle spins forever.

@claustn, how did you install flatpak support? did you install by zypper after setting up repository? or downloaded and installed manually?

It looks like xdg-dbus-proxy from flatpak repo is not installed (see missing command error: execvp xdg-dbus-proxy: No such file or
directory)

But in addition to that, we probably have an issue with 3.4 kernel on the top of that, as referred to earlier.

I am not sure this is related to that kernel thing because I when I first tried I got exactly the same error. Then I fixed it somehow but don't remember how.
(I will try to find out what have done when I get home. I hope the console is still active on my PC and I can look back what I was doing.

+ I will try to install this on my Nexus 5 too.)
And just after then I got the other error about the 'PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS'.

Unfortunately my console I used for S2 is full of AD related stuff, so I could not check what I was doing when I got this Flatpak related error.

I have tried to install it on my Nexus 5 and got exactly the same error and the rotating circle as an app cover.

To compare the two message on the devices:

On Nexus 5:

Code:

[W] unknown:52 - file:///usr/share/flatpak-runner/qml/main.qml:52:26: Unable to assign [undefined] to bool
bwrap: execvp xdg-dbus-proxy: No such file or directory

On S2:

Code:

[W] unknown:52 - file:///usr/share/flatpak-runner/qml/main.qml:52:26: Unable to assign [undefined] to bool
bwrap: prctl(PR_SET_NO_NEW_CAPS) failed: Invalid argument
error: ldconfig failed, exit status 256

Both error do look similar and probably they are related to the kernel just how @rinigus said earlier.

It looks like the Flatpak won't work on the S2 (or some other fixes also needs to be backported).
I have backported the NO_NEW_PRIVS from here but when I re-run the angelfish, I got this:

Code:

Some of the strace is here.

Do I need the CONFIG_SECCOMP in the kernel? (Or something else?)

I have got an idea from elros. If we can patch the glibc for flatpak it can work on my S2 and probably on hammerhead too. I had to do this for my S2 port, otherwise sailfish wouldn't build. More info here.

(For the S2 port, I needed to add a glibc.ini file into /usr/share/ssu/features.d/ folder.)
