apparmor.d breaks waydroid

[Stoppedpuma]

Partially moved from #377

No logs besides this: [gbinder] ERROR: Can't open /dev/binder: No such file or directory Failed to add presence handler: None

A teardown doesn't fix this issue but uninstalling apparmor.d or just not loading apparmor on startup does.

How is it not working? Can you confirm you have the binder module available: modinfo binder_linux. If yes, you should be able to load it has usual. If not, you should remove /var/lib/dkms/binder and install it again (while you ensure that pacman-hook-dkms is on complain mode).

[Stoppedpuma]

filename: /lib/modules/6.8.9-273-tkg-eevdf-llvm/updates/dkms/binder_linux.ko.zst modinfo: ERROR: could not get modinfo from 'binder_linux': No such file or directory

This seems to be an issue only with binder as ZFS works perfectly fine, removing /var/lib/dkms/binder and reinstalling with pacman-hook-dkms in complain mode doesn't fix this.

[roddhjav]

what do you get with sudo dkms status?

[Stoppedpuma]

After reinstalling again in teardown it now shows under dkms status, the problem still occurs though. No idea why it didn't prior to the most recent install.

binder/1, 6.7.6-273-tkg-eevdf, x86_64: installed binder/1, 6.8.9-273-tkg-eevdf-llvm, x86_64: installed zfs/2.2.4, 6.7.6-273-tkg-eevdf, x86_64: installed zfs/2.2.4, 6.8.9-273-tkg-eevdf-llvm, x86_64: installed

If the module is here, you should be able to use it. Try to manually load and mount it:

modinfo binder_linux
sudo modprobe binder-linux device=binder,hwbinder,vndbinder
sudo mount -t binder binder /dev/binderfs

And check for any logs.

[Stoppedpuma]

Still nothing. searching for any differences in journalctl is nearly impossible as well since even being ran for one second fills hundreds of lines with the /dev/binder not found issue. The closest I can get to a log besides that is errors of /acct and /system being read-only but I'm not sure it's helpful as it isn't new.

Did the command in my previous comments returned any error? If not, the directory /dev/binder should exist, and therefore, waydroid should work.

The command doesn't return any errors

the directory /dev/binder should exist, and therefore, waydroid should work.

/dev/binder doesn't exist is the problem, this is where apparmor,d is the culprit as starting without apparmor loaded or just uninstalling apparmor.d solves this problem.

[roddhjav]

Try to manually created it (sudo mkdir /dev/binder), and run modprobe again.

[Stoppedpuma]

Binder is supposed to be a file apparently

[gbinder] ERROR: Can't open /dev/binder: Is a directory

Linking /dev/binderfs/anbox-binder to /dev/binder doesn't work either.
