node-daily-v18.x-staging builds fail on rhel8-s390x since 1 Nov

[richardlau]

Starting on 1 Nov, node-daily-v18.x-staging builds have been consistently failing on rhel8-s390x.
e.g.

• 31 Oct (passed): https://ci.nodejs.org/view/Node.js%20Daily/job/node-daily-v18.x-staging/362/
  • https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit-linuxone/46583/nodes=rhel8-s390x/
• 1 Nov (failed): https://ci.nodejs.org/view/Node.js%20Daily/job/node-daily-v18.x-staging/363/
  • https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit-linuxone/46599/nodes=rhel8-s390x/

From https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit-linuxone/46599/nodes=rhel8-s390x/console

09:06:28 npm warn cli npm v10.7.0 does not support Node.js v18.20.5-pre. This version of npm supports the following node versions: `^18.17.0 || >=20.5.0`. You can find the latest version at https://nodejs.org/.

09:10:05 make[1]: *** [Makefile:754: tools/doc/node_modules] Error 1
09:10:05 make: *** [Makefile:583: run-ci] Error 2

The warning can be ignored (expected for non-releases). I'm slightly concerned that the log references a path in the citgm-smoker workspace (from a node-test-commit-linuxone job!).

Both of the above builds ran on commit nodejs/node@1c4decc so we can rule out any of the subsequent changes landed on v18.x-staging. Since it doesn't appear at first to be due to a code change (and other platforms haven't failed), I'm opening for investigation here in nodejs/build.

Note to check whether this only affects test-ibm-rhel8-s390x-4 (all four failing daily v18.x-staging builds all ran on that machine).

other platforms haven't failed

This includes, so far, rhel9-s390x.

Resumed CI for nodejs/node#55708 (was failing on test-ibm-rhel8-s390x-4 with the same error) -- https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit-linuxone/46644/nodes=rhel8-s390x/ is running on test-ibm-rhel8-s390x-1

FWIW I tried cherry-picking all the npm updates to see if that would improve the outcome, but no, it fails with the same error

So from the log it looks like npm failed to reach the registry. The fetch error on the audits endpoint would indicate that it's trying (and failing) IPv6. Node.js 18 doesn't have happy eyeballs, which would probably explain why the other release lines haven't been affected on this machine.
