Containerd: [question] can containerd be run on OSX?

Created on 5 Dec 2017  路  5Comments  路  Source: containerd/containerd

Hi, All,

I found that in the released 1.0.0 containerd, we can download containerd-1.0.0.darwin-amd64.tar.gz which is for OSX operating system.

At my first glance, it is fun. Just double check if this is true.

Thanks

@crosbymichael @AkihiroSuda What is the current status of containerd on OSX 3 years after this was closed?

It's not a blocker on containerd side. In order to support containers natively - OS X's kernel must provide various container isolation primitives (like cgroups and namespaces on Linux), which we don't have today.
However there are other variations possible like this one: https://github.com/containerd/containerd/pull/4526

Where are we with https://github.com/containerd/containerd/pull/4526? There has been no movement since Jan 22. Is there something blocking this?
