I would guess that these functions are implemented with ptrace (if they’re implemented at all, they might not be). There are various sysctls and procctls that can prevent ptrace from working. It might be worth using trace to see which system calls are failing.

@david_chisnall@infosec.exchange I got quite a bit further. I ended up needing to mount /proc:

mount -t procfs proc /proc

Now I get odd SmartHeap error about being out of memory. Is there some sysctl I need to bump up? kern.ipc.shmall I set to 10x the normal amount but that didn't help.

I thought /proc was a relic of the past. I guess WINE still uses it for some syscalls.

@pertho@mastodon.bsd.cafe FreeBSD programs typically don’t use /proc, but a lot of things ported from Linux do. Did you run it in ktrace? That should help you find the system call that’s failing and leading to the OOM. If it’s something related to a file descriptor (e.g. a SysV memory object) then that should let you figure out which kind it is.
