Sam Thursfield created an issue: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/Infrastructure/-/issues/623
As part of https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-build-meta/-/issues/206 (Test OS and apps keep working in the VM image) we need a Gitlab CI runner that is able to run a virtual machine using KVM. In the list of available runners, I see only one tagged 'kvm' and it is offline since 5 months ago:  The pipeline we are trying to run is in gnome-build-meta branch [sthursfield/james/openqa-gnome-40](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-build-meta/-/commits/sthursfield/james/openqa-gnome-40). On the regular gnome-build-meta runner, it successfully talks to openqa.gnome.org but fails with this [error](http://openqa.gnome.org/tests/2): ``` [2021-07-29T12:44:43.210 UTC] [debug] QEMU: QEMU emulator version 4.2.1 (openSUSE Leap 15.2) [2021-07-29T12:44:43.210 UTC] [debug] QEMU: Copyright (c) 2003-2019 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers [2021-07-29T12:44:43.210 UTC] [debug] QEMU: Could not access KVM kernel module: Permission denied [2021-07-29T12:44:43.211 UTC] [warn] !!! : qemu-system-x86_64: failed to initialize KVM: Permission denied ``` This is presumably because the gnome-build-meta runner doesn't give Docker the necessary permissions to run KVM. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitLab: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/Infrastructure/-/issues/623 You're receiving this email because of your account on gitlab.gnome.org.
