It never worked . I have tried on multiple distributions, the magisk x86_64 platform is flawed on latest Linux 6.x kernels. Magisk daemon just keep crashing on executing, I tried manually setting up magisk with lxc-attach shell, it crashes or killed or not responding .

1. I tried multiple kernels on arch distribution, stock on other distros
2. I tried with both ashmem_linux and binder_linux modules, psi config, use memfd or not
3. I tried automatically mounting system.img and vendor.img rw instead of ro even with resizing to enlarge img size .
4. I tried mounting rw cgroups from lxc container config.
   So, whoever get it working on x86_64 platform with lxc_container is either blatantly lying or uses heavily modified kernel/magisk without disclosing actual process.
   I have yet to see a proper video where someone can show they are using latest kernel 6.4+ and magisk at all.

Magisk 26.3 works perfectly fine for me, but not with this script

[Genxster1998]

@mistrmochov I have seen your repo , so it does not work on even latest 6.6.x xanmod-anbox kernel on archlinux.


upon manually copying magisk setup files and launching daemon from lxc-attach shell , it just hangs and break lxc-attach itself.
On which distro, it actually works for you with which kernel, can you specify ?
PS: According to me, it would be better to create an external host shim/wrapper for magisk modules using overlayfs binding and superuser access using other root solution in guest container.
Do you have any idea on other traditional superuser system working or kernelsu . Anyway the system.img is not sealed rootfs on waydroid so direct modification to android rootfs should not nuke anything.
Thanks

I do have Archlinux with latest linux-xanmod-anbox, which is 6.6.x...
I do have psi=1 in kernel cmdline.
My script works for this setup. It installs Magisk Delta 26.3
I tested also on many different distros and worked fine

waydroid_magisk is currently on hold until Kitsune is fixed on Waydroid. I also don't look into providing an older version at this moment or any unofficial ones so you must wait until I get this problem fixed from Kitsune side

[Genxster1998]

@mistrmochov okay , can you help me debugging , I am going to create an issue on your repo .I am using linux-xanmod-anbox 6.6.x from archlinuxcn repo. I will reinit waydroid /var files
P:S: Thanks a lot , your script worked for second time, i redid clean installation

[mistrmochov]

I'm glad, that It worked for you :)

linux-zen should work well with waydroid.

archlinuxcn repo still had linux-xanmod-anbox.
