Dear all, I've been attempting to run Visual Studio Code[1] in an Ubuntu 16.04 chroot. VS Code is built using Electron, which is basically a minimal chromium to enable building desktop applications using web technology. While I was able to install VS Code and all its dependencies in my chroot, I'm now stuck with the following error on attempting to run it: [5269:0816/001320.918234:FATAL:zygote_host_impl_linux.cc(140)] Check failed: base::UnixDomainSocket::EnableReceiveProcessId(fds[0]). After investigating the Chromium source code, I've found that the EnableReceiveProcessId function calls setsockopt(2) with the SOL_SOCKET level and the option name SO_PASSCRED. This fails because SO_PASSCRED Is not implemented in the Linux socket compatibility layer[2]. After some googling, I've found a patch[3] from 2010 to implement SO_PASSCRED that it seems has never been merged. Does anyone know why, and if there are any plans to merge it?
