Vstest: Reason: Test host process crashed inside docker sdk:3.1-alpine container

[ChaosEngine]

As depicted here running specific tests scenarios inside mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/sdk:3.1-alpine crashes with following message:

The active test run was aborted. Reason: Test host process crashed

Test Run Aborted.
Total tests: Unknown

It is only visible and reproducible under Alpine 3.12 3.1.302-alpine3.12, 3.1-alpine3.12, 3.1.302-alpine, 3.1-alpine docker image. Same batch test scenario run under Alpine 3.11 3.1.302-alpine3.11, 3.1-alpine3.11 works fine.

Steps to reproduce

I've prepared copy-n-paste repro ready to be run from command line that will spun up docker container, git clone repo and dotnet run tests.
Docker container is run with stack trace dump capabilities and is able to intercept and analyze crash dumps.

#run latest SDK alpine-3.12 image with dump capabilities
docker run -it --rm --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/sdk:3.1-alpine

#
#now inside container
#we'll be using git
apk add git
#
#some trivialities
alias ll='ls -lah --color'
cd /srv/
#clone my repo with tests
git clone https://github.com/ChaosEngine/InkBall.git
#go to test project
cd InkBall/test/InkBall.Tests/
dotnet restore -r alpine-x64
dotnet build
#allow to make core dumps
export COMPlus_DbgEnableMiniDump=1
#install needed tools :-)
dotnet tool install --global dotnet-gcdump
dotnet tool install --global dotnet-dump
export PATH="$PATH:/root/.dotnet/tools"
#finaly run the tests!!111one
dotnet test -v d
#
#it takes some time to generate dump
#
#now analyze it
dotnet-dump analyze /tmp/coredump.* -c clrstack

Expected behavior

All tests are run successfully

Actual behavior

The active test run was aborted. Reason: Test host process crashed

Diagnostic logs

When core dump trace is being analyzed following is visible after issuing clrstack:

Possibly root cause of error is hiding here

Environment

Please share additional details about the test environment.

docker alpine 3.12 sdk image.
My repro steps are visible also inside this gist

[ChaosEngine]

looks like it is fixed with latest mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/sdk-3.1-alpine image

[oca159]

I am having the same issue with net core 3.1.202, any idea?

[Glen-Moonpig]

I have the same issue with mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:5.0-alpine

[ChaosEngine]

I have the same issue with mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:5.0-alpine

With respect to mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:5.0-alpine (which currently is based of off mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:5.0-alpine3.13) this error could be caused by https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues/24189

[Glen-Moonpig]

Yea these issues all look the same to me... I changed the tag to alpine3.12 and it works now.
