What's the simplest, easiest way to reproduce this bug? Please provide a minimal example if possible.

I used bazelisk with an empty .bazelrc and .bazelversion set to one of the above mentioned ones. Invoking bazel --version works, but bazel info and any other command that start the server, like build/run commands instantly crash.

Versions before that work fine.

Which operating system are you running Bazel on?

Gentoo X86_64 with clang profile, Kernel 6.0.0

What is the output of bazel info release?

Unobtainable. Instant crash.

If bazel info release returns development version or (@non-git), tell us how you built Bazel.

What's the output of git remote get-url origin; git rev-parse master; git rev-parse HEAD ?

Have you found anything relevant by searching the web?

Only this bug from a few years ago: https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8287073 .

I'm surprised the error message mentions JDK 13. Maybe this is too old? My system JDK is 17 but as far as I understand Bazel uses a bundled JDK. The error also mentions CGroups. Maybe some new kernel settings are required? Seems strange though, as my setup works fine with docker and all previous Bazel releases.

Any other information, logs, or outputs that you want to share?

The embedded JDK was updated to 17 in 66c22f4, but isn't on 17.0.5 yet, which according to https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8287073 has the fix.

https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/pull/16816/files is already approved, but doesn't seem to update all architectures to 17.0.5 (but all the common ones).
