Christian Goll 7fca039621 Accepting request 1099922 from home:mslacken:pr 
- update to 1.2.0 with following changes:
  * binary is built reproducible which disables plugins
  * Create the current working directory in a container when it doesn't exist.
    This restores behavior as it was before singularity 3.6.0. As a result,
    using --no-mount home won't have any effect when running apptainer from a
    home directory and will require --no-mount home,cwd to avoid mounting that
    directory.
  * Handle current working directory paths containing symlinks both on the host
    and in a container but pointing to different destinations. If detected, the
    current working directory is not mounted when the destination directory in
    the container exists.
  * Destination mount points are now sorted by shortest path first to ensure
    that a user bind doesn't override a previous bind path when set in
    arbitrary order on the CLI. This is also applied to image binds.
  * When the kernel supports unprivileged overlay mounts in a user namespace,
    the container will be constructed by default using an overlay instead of an
    underlay layout for bind mounts. A new --underlay action option can be used
    to prefer underlay instead of overlay.
  * sessiondir maxsize in apptainer.conf now defaults to 64 MiB for new
    installations. This is an increase from 16 MiB in prior versions.
  * The apptainer cache is now architecture aware, so the same home directory
    cache can be shared by machines with different architectures.
  * Overlay is blocked on the panfs filesystem, allowing sandbox directories to
    be run from panfs without error.
  * Lookup and store user/group information in stage one prior to entering any
    namespaces, to fix an issue with winbind not correctly looking up
    user/group information when using user namespaces.
- New features / functionalities
  * Support for unprivileged encryption of SIF files using gocryptfs.  This is
    not compatible with privileged encryption, so containers encrypted by root

* Lookup and store user/group information in stage one prior to entering any
namespaces, to fix an issue with winbind not correctly looking up
user/group information when using user namespaces.
- New features / functionalities
* Support for unprivileged encryption of SIF files using gocryptfs. This is
not compatible with privileged encryption, so containers encrypted by root
need to be rebuilt by an unprivileged user.
* Templating support for definition files. Users can now define variables in
definition files via a matching pair of double curly brackets. Variables of
the form {{ variable }} will be replaced by a value defined either by a
variable=value entry in the %arguments section of the definition file or
through new build options --build-arg or --build-arg-file.
* Add a new instance run command that will execute the runscript when an
instance is initiated instead of executing the startscript.
* The sign and verify commands now support signing and verification with
non-PGP key material by specifying the path to a private key via the --key
flag.
* The verify command now supports verification with X.509 certificates by
specifying the path to a certificate via the --certificate flag. By
default, the system root certificate pool is used as trust anchors unless
overridden via the --certificate-roots flag. A pool of intermediate
certificates that are not trust anchors, but can be used to form a
certificate chain, can also be specified via the
--certificate-intermediates flag.
* Support for online verification checks of X.509 certificates using OCSP
protocol via the new verify --ocsp-verify option.
* The instance stats command displays the resource usage every second. The
--no-stream option disables this interactive mode and shows the
point-in-time usage.
* Instances are now started in a cgroup by default, when run as root or when
unified cgroups v2 with systemd as manager is configured. This allows
apptainer instance stats to be supported by default when possible.
* The instance start command now accepts an optional --app <name> argument
which invokes a start script within the %appstart <name> section in the
definition file. The instance stop command still only requires the instance
name.
* The instance name is now available inside an instance via the new
APPTAINER_INSTANCE environment variable.
* The --no-mount flag now accepts the value bind-paths to disable mounting of
all bind path entries in apptainer.conf.
Support for DOCKER_HOST parsing when using docker-daemon://
DOCKER_USERNAME and DOCKER_PASSWORD supported without APPTAINER_ prefix.
Add new Linux capabilities CAP_PERFMON, CAP_BPF, and CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.
* The remote get-login-password command allows users to retrieve a remote's
token. This enables piping the secret directly into docker login while
preventing it from showing up in a shell's history.
* Define EUID in %environment alongside UID.
* In --rocm mode, the whole of /dev/dri is now bound into the container when
--contain is in use. This makes /dev/dri/render devices available, required
for later ROCm versions.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jun 13 14:00:33 UTC 2023 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- update to 1.1.9 with following changes:
* Remove warning about unknown xino=on option from fuse-overlayfs, introduced
in 1.1.8.
* Ignore extraneous warning from fuse-overlayfs about a readonly /proc.
* Fix dropped "n" characters on some platforms in definition file stored as
part of SIF metadata.
* Remove duplicated group ids.
* Fix not being able to handle multiple entries in LD_PRELOAD when binding
fakeroot into container during apptainer startup for --fakeroot with
fakeroot command.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr 27 12:59:22 UTC 2023 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- Included a fix for CVE-2023-30549 which is a vulnerability in setuid-root
installations of Apptainer iwhich was not active in the recent openSUSE
packages. Still this is included for completenss. The fix adds allow
setuid-mount configuration options encrypted, squashfs, and extfs, and makes
the default for extfs be "no". That disables the use of extfs mounts
including for overlays or binds while in the setuid-root mode, while leaving
it enabled for unprivileged user namespace mode. The default for encrypted
and squashfs is "yes".
- Other bug fixes:
* Fix loop device 'no such device or address' spurious errors when using shared
loop devices.
* Add xino=on mount option for writable kernel overlay mount points to fix
inode numbers consistency after kernel cache flush (not applicable to
fuse-overlayfs).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Mar 29 08:14:47 UTC 2023 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- updated to 1.1.7 with following changes:
* removed simpler-sif-building.patch as this was incoperated upstream
* Allow gpu options such as --nv to be nested by always inheriting all
libraries bound in to a parent container's /.singularity.d/libs.
* Map the user's home directory to the root home directory by default in the
non-subuid fakeroot mode like it was in the subuid fakeroot mode, for both
action commands and building containers from definition files.
* Make the error message more helpful in another place where a remote is
found to have no library client.
* Avoid incorrect error when requesting fakeroot network.
* Pass computed LD_LIBRARY_PATH to wrapped unsquashfs. Fixes issues where
unsquashfs on host uses libraries in non-default paths.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Feb 24 13:22:57 UTC 2023 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- added simple sif building for SLE systems via suseconnect-container
- added files:
* simpler-sif-building.patch
* SLE-12SP5.def
* leap.def
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Feb 15 09:01:08 UTC 2023 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- update to 1.1.6 with following changes:
* Included a fix for CVE-2022-23538 which potentially leaked user credentials
to a third-party S3 storage service when using the library:// protocol. See
the https://github.com/sylabs/scs-library-client/security/advisories/GHSA-7p8m-22h4-9pj7
for details.
* Make PS1 environment variable changeable via %environment section on
definition file that used to be only changeable via APPTAINERENV_PS1
outside of container. This makes the container's prompt customizable.
* Fix the passing of nested bind mounts when there are multiple binds
separated by commas and some of them have colons separating sources and
destinations.
* Hide messages about SINGULARITY variables if corresponding APPTAINER
variables are defined. Fixes a regression introduced in 1.1.4.
* Print a warning if extra arguments are given to a shell action, and show in
the run action usage that arguments may be passed.
* Check for the existence of the runtime executable prefix, to avoid issues
when running under Slurm's srun. If it doesn't exist, fall back to the
compile-time prefix.
* Increase the timeout on image driver (that is, FUSE) mounts from 2 seconds
to 10 seconds. Instead, print an INFO message if it takes more than 2
seconds.
* If a remote is defined both globally (i.e. system-wide) and individually,
change apptainer remote commands to print an info message instead of
exiting with a fatal error and to give precedence to the individual
configuration.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan 11 10:25:45 UTC 2023 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- Update to 1.1.5 with following changes:
* Fix the use of fakeroot, faked, and libfakeroot.so if they are not suffixed
by -sysv, as is for instance the case on Gentoo Linux.
* Prevent the use of a --libexecdir or --bindir mconfig option from making
apptainer think it was relocated and so preventing use of suid mode. The
bug was introduced in v1.1.4.
* Add helpful error message for build --remote option.
* Add more helpful error message when no library endpoint found.
* Avoid cleanup errors on exit when mountpoints are busy by doing a lazy
unmount if a regular unmount doesn't work after 10 tries.
* Make messages about using SINGULARITY variables less scary.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Dec 21 13:17:54 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- moved run dir from /var/lib/apptainer to /var/apptainer to be closer
to upstream
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Dec 20 14:14:43 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- Update to 1.1.4 with following changes:
* Make the binaries built in the unprivileged apptainer package relocatable.
When moving the binaries to a new location, the /usr at the top of some of
the paths needs to be removed. Relocation is disallowed when the
starter-suid is present, for security reasons.
* Change the warning when an overlay image is not writable, introduced in
v1.1.3, back into a (more informative) fatal error because it doesn't
actually enter the container environment.
* Set the --net flag if --network or --network-args is set rather than
silently ignoring them if --net was not set.
* Do not hang on pull from http(s) source that doesn't provide a content-length.
* Avoid hang on fakeroot cleanup under high load seen on some distributions / kernels.
* Remove obsolete pacstrap -d in Arch packer.
* Adjust warning message for deprecated environment variables usage.
* Enable the --security uid:N and --security gid:N options to work when run
in non-suid mode. In non-suid mode they work with any user, not just root.
Unlike with root and suid mode, however, only one gid may be set in
non-suid mode.
- Changes from 1.1.3
* Prefer the fakeroot-sysv command over the fakeroot command because the
latter can be linked to either fakeroot-sysv or fakeroot-tcp, but
fakeroot-sysv is much faster.
* Update the included squashfuse_ll to have -o uid=N and -o gid=N options and
changed the corresponding image driver to use them when available. This
makes files inside sif files appear to be owned by the user instead of by
the nobody id 65534 when running in non-setuid mode.
* Fix the locating of shared libraries when running unsquashfs from a non-standard location.
* Properly clean up temporary files if unsquashfs fails.
* Fix the creation of missing bind points when using image binding with underlay.
* Change the error when an overlay image is not writable into a warning that
suggests adding :ro to make it read only or using --fakeroot.
* Avoid permission denied errors during unprivileged builds without
/etc/subuid-based fakeroot when /var/lib/containers/sigstore is readable
only by root.
* Avoid failures with --writable-tmpfs in non-setuid mode when using
fuse-overlayfs versions 1.8 or greater by adding the fuse-overlayfs noacl
mount option to disable support for POSIX Access Control Lists.
* Fix the --rocm flag in combination with -c / -C by forwarding all
/dri/render* devices into the container.

- Add Provides: and Obsoletes: to attempt to mark this as a possible
replacement for the original singularity package which has been
discontinued.

Tue Oct 11 08:19:01 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- previous versions did not build squashfuse_ll, fixed this
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Oct 7 12:42:57 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- Udpated to 1.1.2 which fixed CVE-2022-39237
* CVE-2022-39237: The sif dependency included in Apptainer before this
release does not verify that the hash algorithm(s) used are
cryptographically secure when verifying digital signatures. This release
updates to sif v2.8.1 which corrects this issue. See the linked advisory
for references and a workaround.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Sep 28 09:07:18 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- updated to version 1.1.0 without changes to rc3
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Sep 9 08:50:33 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- Updated to version 1.1.0-rc3 with following changes:
* added squashfuse-0.1.105.tar.gz and 70.patch for the build of squashfuse_ll
which will be removed as soon as the multithread patch is incoperated
* Change squash mounts to prefer to use squashfuse_ll instead of squashfuse,
if available, for improved performance. squashfuse_ll is not available
in factory.
* Also, for even better parallel performance, include a patched
multithreaded version of squashfuse_ll in
* Imply adding ${prefix}/libexec/apptainer/bin to the binary path in
apptainer.conf, which is used for searching for helper executables. It is
implied as the first directory of $PATH if present (which is at the
beginning of binary path by default) or just as the first directory if
$PATH is not included in binary path.
${prefix}/libexec/apptainer/bin.
* Add --unsquash action flag to temporarily convert a SIF file to a sandbox
before running. In previous versions this was the default when running a
SIF file without setuid or with fakeroot, but now the default is to instead
mount with squashfuse.
* Add --sparse flag to overlay create command to allow generation of a sparse
ext3 overlay image.
* Support for a custom hashbang in the %test section of an Apptainer recipe
(akin to the runscript and start sections).
* When using fakeroot in setuid mode, have the image drivers first enter the
the container's user namespace to avoid write errors with overlays.
* Skip trying to use kernel overlayfs when using writable overlay and the
lower layer is FUSE, because of a kernel bug introduced in kernel 5.15.
* Add additional hidden options to the action command for testing different
fakeroot modes with --fakeroot: --ignore-subuid, --ignore-fakeroot-command,
and --ignore-userns.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Aug 19 10:07:20 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- Updated to version 1.1.0-rc2 with following changes:
* Fixed longstanding bug in the underlay logic when there are nested bind
points separated by more than one path level, for example /var and
/var/lib/yum, and the path didn't exist in the container image. The bug
only caused an error when there was a directory in the container image that
didn't exist on the host.
* Improved wildcard matching in the %files directive of build definition
files by replacing usage of sh with the mvdan.cc library.
* Replaced checks for compatible filesystem types when using fuse-overlayfs
with an INFO message when an incompatible filesystem type causes it to be
unwritable by a fakeroot user.
* The --nvccli option now works without --fakeroot. In that case the option
can be used with --writable-tmpfs instead of --writable, and
--writable-tmpfs is implied if neither option is given. Note that also
/usr/bin has to be writable by the user, so without --fakeroot that
probably requires a sandbox image that was built with --fix-perms.
* The --nvccli option implies --nv.
* Configure squashfuse to always show files to be owned by the current user.
That's especially important for fakeroot to prevent most of the files from
looking like they are owned by user 65534.
* The fakeroot command can now be used even if $PATH is empty in the
environment of the apptainer command.
* Allow the newuidmap command to be missing if the current user is not listed
in /etc/subuid.
* Require the uidmap package in Debian packaging.
* Improved error handling of unsupported pass protected PEM files with
encrypted containers.
* Ensure bootstrap_history directory is populated with previous definition
files, present in source containers used in a build.
* Add additional options to the build command for testing different fakeroot
modes: --userns like the action flag and hidden options --ignore-subuid,
--ignore-fakeroot-command, and --ignore-userns.
* Require root user early when building an encrypted container.
- removed upstream incorated patch fix-32bit-compilation.patch
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Aug 4 12:31:33 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- Updated to version 1.1.0-rc1 which enables apptainer to run without
suid and additional groups. Although this is a prerelease this is
a major advantage justifying its use.
* Added a squashfuse image driver that enables mounting SIF files without
using setuid-root. Requires the squashfuse command and unprivileged user
namespaces.
* Added a fuse2fs image driver that enables mounting EXT3 files and EXT3 SIF
overlay partitions without using setuid-root. Requires the fuse2fs command
and unprivileged user namespaces.
* Added the ability to use persistent overlay (--overlay) and
--writable-tmpfs without using setuid-root. This requires unprivileged user
namespaces and either a new enough kernel (>= 5.11) or the fuse-overlayfs
command. Persistent overlay works when the overlay path points to a regular
filesystem (known as "sandbox" mode, which is not allowed when in setuid
mode), or when it points to an EXT3 image. Does not work with a SIF
partition because that requires privileges to mount as an ext3 image.
* Extended the --fakeroot option to be useful when /etc/subuid and
/etc/subgid mappings have not been set up. If they have not been set up, a
root-mapped unprivileged user namespace (the equivalent of unshare -r)
and/or the fakeroot command from the host will be tried. Together they
emulate the mappings pretty well but they are simpler to administer. This
feature is especially useful with the --overlay and --writable-tmpfs
options and for building containers unprivileged, because they allow
installing packages that assume they're running as root. A limitation on
using it with --overlay and --writable-tmpfs however is that when only the
fakeroot command can be used (because there are no user namespaces
available, in suid mode) then the base image has to be a sandbox. This
feature works nested inside of an apptainer container, where another
apptainer command will also be in the fakeroot environment without
requesting the --fakeroot option again, or it can be used inside an
apptainer container that was not started with --fakeroot. However, the
fakeroot command uses LD_PRELOAD and so needs to be bound into the
container which requires a compatible libc. For that reason it doesn't work
when the host and container operating systems are of very different
vintages. If that's a problem and you want to use only an unprivileged
root-mapped namespace even when the fakeroot command is installed, just run
apptainer with unshare -r.
* Made the --fakeroot option be implied when an unprivileged user builds a
container from a definition file. When /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid mappings
are not available, all scriptlets are run in a root-mapped unprivileged
namespace (when possible) and the %post scriptlet is additionally run with
the fakeroot command. When unprivileged user namespaces are not available,
such that only the fakeroot command can be used, the --fix-perms option is
implied to allow writing into directories.
* Added a --fakeroot option to the apptainer overlay create command to make
an overlay EXT3 image file that works with the fakeroot that comes from
unprivileged root-mapped namespaces. This is not needed with the fakeroot
that comes with /etc/sub[ug]id mappings nor with the fakeroot that comes
with only the fakeroot command in suid flow.
* $HOME is now used to find the user's configuration and cache by default. If
that is not set it will fall back to the previous behavior of looking up
the home directory in the password file. The value of $HOME inside the
container still defaults to the home directory in the password file and can
still be overridden by the --home option.
* When starting a container, if the user has specified the cwd by using the
--pwd flag, if there is a problem an error is returned instead of
defaulting to a different directory.
* Nesting of bind mounts now works even when a --bind option specified a
different source and destination with a colon between them. Now the
APPTAINER_BIND environment variable makes sure the bind source is from the
bind destination so it will be succesfully re-bound into a nested apptainer
container.
* The warning about more than 50 bind mounts required for an underlay bind
has been changed to an info message.
* oci mount sets Process.Terminal: true when creating an OCI config.json, so
that oci run provides expected interactive behavior by default.
The default hostname for oci mount containers is now apptainer instead of mrsdalloway.
* systemd is now supported and used as the default cgroups manager. Set
systemd cgroups = no in apptainer.conf to manage cgroups directly via the
cgroupfs.
* Added a new action flag --no-eval which:
+ Prevents shell evaluation of APPTAINERENV_ / --env / --env-file
environment variables as they are injected in the container, to match
OCI behavior. Applies to all containers.
+ Prevents shell evaluation of the values of CMD / ENTRYPOINT and command
line arguments for containers run or built directly from an OCI/Docker
source. Applies to newly built containers only, use apptainer inspect
to check version that container was built with.
* Added --no-eval to the list of flags set by the OCI/Docker --compat mode.
* sinit process has been renamed to appinit.
* Added --keysdir to key command to provide an alternative way of setting
local keyring path. The existing reading of the keyring path from
environment variable 'APPTAINER_KEYSDIR' is untouched.
* apptainer key push will output the key server's response if included in
order to help guide users through any identity verification the server may
require.
* ECL no longer requires verification for all signatures, but only when
signature verification would alter the expected behavior of the list:
+ At least one matching signature included in a whitelist must be
validated, but other unvalidated signatures do not cause ECL to fail.
+ All matching signatures included in a whitestrict must be validated,
but unvalidated signatures not in the whitestrict do not cause ECL to
fail.
+ Signature verification is not checked for a blacklist; unvalidated
signatures can still block execution via ECL, and unvalidated
signatures not in the blacklist do not cause ECL to fail.
- New features / functionalities
* Non-root users can now use --apply-cgroups with run/shell/exec to limit
container resource usage on a system using cgroups v2 and the systemd
cgroups manager.
* Native cgroups v2 resource limits can be specified using the [unified] key
in a cgroups toml file applied via --apply-cgroups.
* Added --cpu*, --blkio*, --memory*, --pids-limit flags to apply cgroups
resource limits to a container directly.
Added instance stats command.
* The --no-mount flag & APPTAINER_NO_MOUNT env var can now be used to disable
a bind path entry from apptainer.conf by specifying the absolute path to
the destination of the bind.
* Apptainer now supports the riscv64 architecture.
* remote add --insecure may now be used to configure endpoints that are only
accessible via http. Alternatively the environment variable
APPTAINER_ADD_INSECURE can be set to true to allow http remotes to be added
wihtout the --insecure flag. Specifying https in the remote URI overrules
both --insecure and APPTAINER_ADD_INSECURE.
* Gpu flags --nv and --rocm can now be used from an apptainer nested inside
another apptainer container.
* Added --public, --secret, and --both flags to the key remove command to
support removing secret keys from the apptainer keyring.
* Debug output can now be enabled by setting the APPTAINER_DEBUG env var.
* Debug output is now shown for nested apptainer calls, in wrapped unsquashfs
image extraction, and build stages.
- Bug fixes
* Remove warning message about SINGULARITY and APPTAINER variables having
different values when the SINGULARITY variable is not set.
* Add specific error for unreadable image / overlay file.
* Pass through a literal \n in host environment variables to the container.
* Fix loop device creation with loop-control when running inside docker containers.
* Fix the issue that the oras protocol would ignore the --no-https/--nohttps flag.
- File changes
* Removed useful_error_message.patch as not needed any more
* Added fix-32bit-compilation.patch from upstream
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 11 09:38:45 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- Update to version 1.0.3:
* Process redirects that can come from sregistry with a library:// URL.
* Fix inspect --deffile and inspect --all to correctly show definition files
in sandbox container images instead of empty output. This has a side effect
of also fixing the storing of definition files in the metadata of sif files
built by Apptainer, because that metadata is constructed by doing inspect
--all.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed May 18 12:07:59 UTC 2022 - Dominique Leuenberger <dimstar@opensuse.org>
- Update to version 1.0.2:
+ Fixed `FATAL` error thrown by user configuration migration code
that caused users with inaccessible home directories to be
unable to use `apptainer` commands.
+ Do not truncate environment variables with commas.
+ Use HEAD request when checking digest of remote OCI image
sources, with GET as a fall-back. Greatly reduces Apptainer's
impact on Docker Hub API limits.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Mar 18 16:02:59 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- Updated to v1.0.1 with following bug fixes
* Don't prompt for y/n to overwrite an existing file when build is called
from a non-interactive environment. Fail with an error.
* Preload NSS libraries prior to mountspace name creation to avoid
circumstances that can cause loading those libraries from the container
image instead of the host, for example in the startup environment.
* Fix race condition where newly created loop devices can sometimes not be opened.
* Support nvidia-container-cli v1.8.0 and above, via fix to capability set.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Feb 17 15:29:45 UTC 2022 - Christian Goll <cgoll@suse.com>
- Updated to v1.0.0-rc1 changes to singularity 3.9.5 are
* The primary executable has been changed from singularity to apptainer.
However, a singularity command symlink alias has been created pointing to
the apptainer command. The contents of containers are unchanged and
continue to use the singularity name for startup scripts, etc.
* The per-user configuration directory has changed from ~/.singularity to
~/.apptainer. The first time the apptainer command accesses the user
configuration directory, relevant configuration is automatically imported
from the old directory to the new one.
* Environment variables have all been changed to have an APPTAINER prefix
instead of a SINGULARITY prefix. However, SINGULARITY prefix variables are
still recognized. If only a SINGULARITY prefix variable exists, a warning
will be printed about deprecated usage and then the value will be used. If
both prefixes exist and the value is the same, no warning is printed; this
is the recommended method to set environment variables for those who need
to support both apptainer and singularity. If both prefixes exist for the
same variable and the value is different then a warning is also printed.
* The default SylabsCloud remote endpoint has been removed and replaced by
one called DefaultRemote which has no defined server for the library://
URI. System administrators may restore the old default if they wish by
adding it to /etc/apptainer/remote.yaml with a URI of cloud.sylabs.io and
setting it there as the Active remote, or users can add it to their own
configuration with the commands apptainer remote add SylabsCloud
cloud.sylabs.io and apptainer remote use SylabsCloud.
* The DefaultRemote's key server is https://keys.openpgp.org instead of the
Sylabs key server
* The apptainer build --remote option has been removed because there is no
standard protocol or non-commercial service that supports it.
- New Features:
* Honor image binds and user binds in the order they're given instead of
always doing image binds first.
* Experimental support for checkpointing of instances using DMTCP has been
added. Additional flags --dmtcp-launch and --dmtcp-restart has been added
to the apptainer instance start command, and a checkpoint command group has
been added to manage the checkpoint state. A new
/etc/apptainer/dmtcp-conf.yaml configuration file is also added.
Limitations are that it can only work with dynamically linked applications
and the container has to be based on glibc.
* --writable-tmpfs can be used with apptainer build to run the %test section
of the build with a ephemeral tmpfs overlay, permitting tests that write to
the container filesystem.
* The --compat flag for actions is a new short-hand to enable a number of
options that increase OCI/Docker compatibility. Infers --containall,
--no-init, --no-umask, --writable-tmpfs. Does not use user, uts, or network
namespaces as these may not be supported on many installations.
* The experimental --nvccli flag will use nvidia-container-cli to setup the
container for Nvidia GPU operation. Apptainer will not bind GPU libraries
itself. Environment variables that are used with Nvidia's docker-nvidia
runtime to configure GPU visibility / driver capabilities & requirements
are parsed by the --nvccli flag from the environment of the calling user.
By default, the compute and utility GPU capabilities are configured. The
use nvidia-container-cli option in apptainer.conf can be set to yes to
always use nvidia-container-cli when supported. --nvccli is not supported
in the setuid workflow, and it requires being used in combination with
--writable in user namespace mode. Please see documentation for more
details.
* The --apply-cgroups flag can be used to apply cgroups resource and device
restrictions on a system using the v2 unified cgroups hierarchy. The
resource restrictions must still be specified in the v1 / OCI format, which
will be translated into v2 cgroups resource restrictions, and eBPF device
restrictions.
* A new --mount flag and APPTAINER_MOUNT environment variable can be used to
specify bind mounts in
type=bind,source=<src>,destination=<dst>[,options...] format. This improves
CLI compatibility with other runtimes, and allows binding paths containing
: and , characters (using CSV style escaping).
* Perform concurrent multi-part downloads for library:// URIs. Uses 3
concurrent downloads by default, and is configurable in apptainer.conf or
via environment variables.
