The glibc stuff on ppc64le C8S is a little bit wild, as there are two versions: ``` $ ldconfig -p | grep libc.so libc.so.6 (libc6,64bit, hwcap: "power9", OS ABI: Linux 3.10.0) => /lib64/glibc-hwcaps/power9/libc-2.28.so libc.so.6 (libc6,64bit, OS ABI: Linux 3.10.0) => /lib64/libc.so.6 ``` and with `/etc/ld.so.cache` present all binaries use the first one: ``` $ ldd /bin/cat linux-vdso64.so.1 (0x00007fffa8070000) libc.so.6 => /lib64/glibc-hwcaps/power9/libc-2.28.so (0x00007fffa7e20000) /lib64/ld64.so.2 (0x00007fffa8090000) ``` However, without the cache the binaries will fall back to `/lib64/libc.so.6` which breaks tests that use the minimal verity images (like TEST-29), because we install only the first version (that's shown by `ldd` at the time the images are created): ``` [ 91.595343] testsuite-29.sh[747]: + portablectl --profile=trusted attach --now --runtime /usr/share/minimal_0.raw minimal-app0 Starting systemd-portabled.service... [ OK ] Started systemd-portabled.service. Starting minimal-app0-foo.service... Starting minimal-app0.service...
