rsync: [generator] failed to set permissions : Operation not supported (95)

  • 772

I want to virtualize correctly Android 10 on top of my Jetson nano (arm64) using qemu and kvm on ubuntu 18.04. This is the tutorial that I'm following :

https://github.com/antmicro/kvm-aosp-jetson-nano

everything went good until this command :

sudo rsync -avxHAX system-r{o,w}/

something is not good because I get a lot of errors when I transfer the files and permissions from the source to the destination path (both are on the same disk and on the same ext4 partition. You can see the full log with the errors here :

https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/W9GjPCt8G4/

the consequence of these errors is that when I try to emulate android with qemu like this :

qemu-system-aarch64 \
-enable-kvm \
-smp 4 \
-m 2048 \
-cpu host \
-M virt \
-device virtio-gpu-pci \
-device usb-ehci \
-device usb-kbd \
-device virtio-tablet-pci \
-usb \
-serial stdio \
-display sdl,gl=on \
-kernel aosp/Image \
-initrd aosp/ramdisk.img \
-drive index=0,if=none,id=system,file=aosp/system.img \
-device virtio-blk-pci,drive=system \
-drive index=1,if=none,id=vendor,file=aosp/vendor.img \
-device virtio-blk-pci,drive=vendor \
-drive index=2,if=none,id=userdata,file=aosp/userdata.img \
-device virtio-blk-pci,drive=userdata \
-full-screen \
-append "console=ttyAMA0,38400 earlycon=pl011,0x09000000 drm.debug=0x0 rootwait rootdelay=5 androidboot.hardware=ranchu androidboot.selinux=permissive security=selinux selinux=1 androidboot.qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 androidboot.lcd.density=160"

this is the error that I get :

[ 2.532754] init: init first stage started!

I've just edited my /etc/fstab file like this :

UUID=84d024e0-c8c7-42c0-ad3e-c3e0c1cacdb7 / ext4 acl,user_xattr,noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1

and also like this :

UUID=84d024e0-c8c7-42c0-ad3e-c3e0c1cacdb7 / ext4 defaults,acl,user_xattr,noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1

but the error still there :

this is also interesting :

rsync: [generator] failed to set permissions on "/home/ziomario/Scrivania/antmicro/aosp_images/system-rw/charger": Operation not supported (95)

and so on.

someone knows why I get those errors and how can I fix them ? thanks.

    after hours of searching I found following issue :

    owner, group and permissions of restored files with rsyncd are not correct, due to an rsync 3.2.3 / glibc bug.

    rsync 3.1.3 in Ubuntu 20.04 worked fine, while 3.2.3 in Ubuntu 20.10, 21.04 ... has this problem:

    rsync.log: 
rsync: [receiver] failed to set permissions on "/some_file": Operation not supported (95)

    this is due to a glibc bug in Ubuntu 20.10, 21.04, Fedora 33 beta, etc.

    If You experience such errors, upgrade from rsync 3.2.3 to (atm of this writing 2021-July-03) at least 3.2.4dev

    see also: rsync github issue 109

    you can download the latest version of rsync here : rsync sourcecode

    and here the install instructions : rsync install

  2. After a few hours of dealing with this all, here's where I netted out. It worked for me, so hoping someone else finds this helpful.

    Btw, I'm running this on Ubunutu 21.04 on Apple silicon in 2021.

    cd ~ && \
    mkdir tmp && \
    cd tmp && \
    python3 -mpip install --user commonmark && \
    wget https://github.com/WayneD/rsync/archive/be3d6c0fbbd07781bbae6261cda109f8f08c031b.zip && \
    unzip be3d6c0fbbd07781bbae6261cda109f8f08c031b.zip && \
    cd rsync-be3d6c0fbbd07781bbae6261cda109f8f08c031b && \
    ./md2man --test rsync-ssl.1.md
sudo apt install -y gcc=4:10.3.0-1ubuntu1 && \
    sudo apt install -y g++=4:10.3.0-1ubuntu1 && \
    sudo apt install -y gawk=1:5.1.0-1build1 && \
    sudo apt install -y autoconf=2.69-14 && \
    sudo apt install -y automake=1:1.16.3-2ubuntu1 && \
    sudo apt install -y python3-cmarkgfm=0.4.2-1build3 && \
    sudo apt install -y xxhash=0.8.0-2 && \
    sudo apt install -y zstd=1.4.8+dfsg-2build2 && \
    sudo apt install -y lz4=1.9.3-1ubuntu0.1 && \
    sudo apt install -y acl=2.2.53-10ubuntu1 && \
    sudo apt install -y libacl1-dev=2.2.53-10ubuntu1 && \
    sudo apt install -y attr=1:2.4.48-6build1 && \
    sudo apt install -y libattr1-dev=1:2.4.48-6build1 && \
    sudo apt install -y libxxhash-dev=0.8.0-2 && \
    sudo apt install -y libzstd-dev=1.4.8+dfsg-2build2 && \
    sudo apt install -y liblz4-dev=1.9.3-1ubuntu0.1 && \
    sudo apt install -y libssl-dev=1.1.1j-1ubuntu3.5
 ./configure
 make
 sudo make install
cd ../ && \
    cd ../ && \
    rm -rf tmp/

    This will install all dependencies to get rsync version 3.2.4dev running on Ubuntu 21.04.

    Thanks for the guidance with your posts and comments everyone :)
