Description

docker save fails for image pulled using --platform=linux/arm64 on amd64 host.

I pulled image as,
docker pull --platform=linux/arm64 nginx:latest

docker images --no-trunc
REPOSITORY   TAG       IMAGE ID                                                                  CREATED       SIZE

docker save -o nginx.tar sha256:04ba374043ccd2fc5c593885c0eacddebabd5ca375f9323666f28dfd5a9710e3**

Not able to do docker save because of above error

Extra info,
Although, docker save works with arm64 arch image if image is pulled using mainfest digest as below,

docker pull nginx:latest@sha256:9f661996f4d1cea788f329b8145660a1124a5a94eec8cea1dba0d564423ad171

Thanks for reporting! Yes, this is needs some work. I was curious if this was fixed on current master of the engine, and if PR would have fixed it;

• c8d: Add platform parameter to history, save and load moby/moby#48295
• (related to) c8d: Add --platform flag to history, save and load #5331

But it looks like, while the error is slightly different 27.3 and "master" (looks like it now includes a NotFound prefix; possibly originating from containerd error-defs), the issue is still the same;

The --platform flag (from #5331) helps in this case, but either the error message should be better (i.e., "we have the image, but not in the default platform"), or it should export only the available one;

docker save -o nginx.tar --platform=linux/s390x nginx:latest

Thanks for the details @thaJeztah.

This seems to be an issue with image pulls with --platform mismatching to host arch.

docker inspect 04ba374043cc|grep -ani arch

74:        "Architecture": "386",

docker images --no-trunc

[thaJeztah]

@chetanshivaji yes, correct; the issue is that the image pulled does not match the default platform. When running docker save, the initial part "succeeds" (multi-arch image exists), but it then tries to save the default (native) platform, and that is missing.

So at least the error-message should be more clear, but we should also look if the request is non-ambiguous (i.e., image exists, and there's only a single platform locally -> in that case we could save the image, regardless if it's the default platform).

[thaJeztah]

x-posting here from #5493 (comment), because I somewhat assumed that this never worked with the containerd image store enabled, but it looks like older versions did handle this case.

With the added note that;

It's still possible that this was an intentional change in behavior (i.e., default to native platform instead of "pick whatever is found"), but at least the error-reporting should be more clear on that if that's the case.
