Summary
What this adds
A new FAQ documenting how to run OSS-CRS on macOS (Apple Silicon), covering
Docker Desktop + Rosetta setup and the most common Mac-specific errors.
Why
Setting up OSS-CRS on an Apple Silicon Mac surfaces several issues not covered in
the current docs. This FAQ is grounded in a confirmed working end-to-end run of
the crs-libfuzzer pipeline (prepare → build-target → run), producing seeds and
POVs — not speculation.
Contents
oss-crs-deps: pull access denied— a same-daemon / local-image-not-presentproblem (with
docker_registry: local), not a missing registry image;includes the post-
prepareverification stepKilled/ exit 137 with empty stderr — ASAN/libFuzzer instability under QEMUemulation, resolved by enabling Rosetta
Requested CPUs are not availableand thecpusetrequired-fieldconstraint — how to set it for a Mac VM
oss-crs setup— Phase 2 cgroup behavior on macOS and how to proceeddocker-pyvs CLIDOCKER_HOSTgotcha, and how to confirm success via seeds/POVsTesting / validation
The documented configuration (
cpuset: "0-7",memory: "16G", Docker Desktopwith Rosetta, single daemon throughout) was used to complete a full run that
produced seeds and POVs, so the guidance reflects a working setup.
