Unable to run Notepad++ in arm64 docker container

[scottyhardy]

Problems Description

I'm trying out using Hangover for my own little docker-wine project. In particular, I've been looking at alternatives for Apple M1 Macs as using the current x86 (linux/amd64) docker image fails with a segfault when trying to run anything at all (see https://github.com/scottyhardy/docker-wine/issues/109).

I myself have an Intel Mac so I've been getting assistance with testing from @brandonros. The issues we're seeing appear to be related to Docker Desktop for Mac's QEMU implementation used to emulate an x86_64 processor on ARM hardware. My first attempt was to build Wine from source code which worked, but overall was a failure as other than running notepad and other built-in apps there weren't any readily available 64-bit Windows binaries compiled for ARM.

So, the thought is that if we use a native ARM image with a newer/better version of QEMU it could solve our problem, which is when I came across Hangover.

In short, I've successfully built hangover using Dockerfile.cross_arm64 (see https://github.com/scottyhardy/docker-wine/pull/139), then I tar the entire /root/hangover source and build files and use ADD to untar the lot into /usr/local/lib/hangover within a Dockerfile that includes all the other packages I normally use in my docker-wine image.

build_hangover_for_arm:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# Checkout hangover repository
if [ ! -d hangover ]; then
    git clone --depth=1 [email protected]:AndreRH/hangover.git
    git -C hangover submodule update --init --depth=1
else
    git -C hangover fetch
    git -C hangover pull origin master
    git -C hangover submodule update --depth=1
fi

# Build hangover
docker build \
    -f hangover/Dockerfile.cross_arm64 \
    -t "hangover-builder" \
    hangover

# Extract the build files from the hangover-builder image
docker run --rm hangover-builder tar -C /root/hangover/ --exclude-vcs -czf - . > hangover.tar.gz

docker build \
    --platform="linux/arm64" \
    -f Dockerfile.build_from_source \
    --target="hangover" \
    -t "docker-wine:hangover" \
    .

Dockerfile.build_from_source (minus parts in original for building wine from source code):

FROM scottyhardy/docker-remote-desktop:latest AS main-base

    && chmod +x /usr/local/bin/wine
ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/bin/entrypoint"]

The base image scottyhardy/docker-remote-desktop:latest uses ubuntu:latest for it's base, which is currently Ubuntu 20.04 focal.

I can successfully run wine notepad which is my normal test to confirm wine is working, but I'm getting errors when I attempt to run a copy of notepad++ portable (tested with both 32-bit and 64-bit versions):

wineuser@Scotts-MacBook-Pro:~$ wine ./notepad++.exe 

starting L"./notepad++.exe" with Hangover

00d4:err:secur32:SECUR32_initSchannelSP TLS library not found, SSL connections will fail
Killed
wineuser@Scotts-MacBook-Pro:~$ wine --version

Here's a more detailed log, using a fresh install where I hadn't already initialised the wine config by running normal notepad:

I'm guessing the issue relates to the error 00d4:err:secur32:SECUR32_initSchannelSP TLS library not found, SSL connections will fail. I've seen a similar error when winbind isn't installed, but that isn't the case here. I've tried installing pretty much every TLS related package I can find but that hasn't resolved my issue.

This could also be related to the fact I'm using an ARM image on an Intel Mac, so there's first Docker's QEMU then Hangover's QEMU being run, but I'm not seeing segment faults like I normally see when problems related to QEMU occur.

Any ideas? Although wine notepad works, I don't want to merge this into my master branch until I can at least get one of the programs listed to work on your readme to also work for me.

[brandonros]

Shall we retest this (with or without hangover) now that M1 has been out longer?

https://gigazine.net/gsc_news/en/20220607-create-macos-linux-virtual-machines/

I think this might help?

[scottyhardy]

Might be worth a try with Ventura or perhaps an M2 Mac when released. Qemu was the main sticking point as far as I can tell though so I'm not gonna hold my breath.

I'm down to retry what we tried before now that about 6 months have passed (from when we last tried in December, 2021)

I'm sure some fixes have been made in Docker on Mac OS X by now. It's 4.9.0

What shall I try? docker pull what version of your docker-wine and what exact command line to try to run Notepad++?

What's the benefit of using hangover if we can just run wine amd64 (on arm64 processor) and let Mac OS/Docker handle the virtualization part? Was the intention performance workaround or something?

[stefand]

The intention was three fold:

1. Sometimes there is no host system able to take care of the emulation. Most notably graphics drivers for ARM systems might not have a x86 userspace version plus the ability to talk to their ARM kernel counterpart

2. Some speed gain of pulling code out of emulation, and figuring out how much it matters. Again, graphics drivers and graphics/sound codecs are the big ones

3. We originally approached hangover as x86-windows on arm-windows, where using Wine as the implementation of "arm-windows" was just an accident. This was before Microsoft's x86-on-arm64 emulation was publicly announced. Now in practice we never ran hangover on ARM windows, and for a few reasons it would not work as is.

You might have noticed the lack of activity on hangover in the past year or more. Wine is currently undergoing big restructuring that will make it possible to include a CPU emulator similarly to how it works on Windows. The big goal here is to run 32 bit Windows programs in a 64 bit Linux process, eliminating the need for 32 bit Linux libs, but it will also make x86 or x86_64 on arm64 much easier. It has actually progressed enough to write a "hangover 2" in the form of a xtajit.dll that works in conjunction with wow64.dll like their windows counterparts. That should eliminate the need for all those thunking DLLs since Wine is / will be able to do the thunking itself.

@brandonros here's what we tried and why:

1. amd64 image - this relied on using macOS Rosetta2 for emulation of the ARM processor (Docker doesn't do it's own QEMU implementation) which didn't work
2. arm64 image - this was able to run natively and could launch Notepad without issue on ARM, but was not capable of running any x86/amd64 apps
3. hangover arm64 image - hangover includes its own implementation of QEMU so in theory would allow running amd64 apps but we were getting errors.

I suspect very little has changed with Rosetta 2's QEMU - I think trying out Ventura's implementation or M2 when released would be more prudent but I'd be very surprised if it actually works.

To test each version:

1. amd64: ./docker-wine wine notepad
2. arm64: ./docker-wine --arm64 wine notepad
3. hangover: ./docker-wine --tag=hangover wine notepad

@scottyhardy

do you want to push a fresher arm64?

[scottyhardy]

The arm64 builds have been failing for months and I hadn't bothered fixing it since it has a limited use case. Just try the latest version in the repo for now and I'll take a look at why the builds have been failing later. Right now I'm trying to get box86 and box64 up and running

[brandonros]

Just try the latest version in the repo for now

to clarify, try the x86_64 latest tag and let docker do the x86_64 -> arm64 translation?

[brandonros]

Not sure if you want to close this, Notepad++ runs fine?
