macos: "docker ps --filter" hangs while "docker ps" works

[medyagh]

Description

This seems to affect docker desktop on macos only and not linux. "docker ps" with a --filter hangs indefinitely.

$ docker ps -a --filter label=name.minikube.sigs.k8s.io --format {{.Names}}
^C
(hangs indefinitely) 

$ docker ps -a 
CONTAINER ID  IMAGE           COMMAND    CREATED    STATUS           PORTS   NAMES

affected version

$ docker version --format {{.Server.Os}}-{{.Server.Version}}:{{.Server.Platform.Name}}
linux-27.2.0:Docker Desktop 4.34.0 (165256)

This prevents minikube from working with docker driver for this version, since we need to list the containers by a filter.

Reproduce

this one works

docker ps

this one hangs

docker ps -a --filter label=name.minikube.sigs.k8s.io --format {{.Names}}

Expected behavior

docker ps -a --filter label=name.minikube.sigs.k8s.io --format {{.Names}}

should return something and not freeze.

Thanks for reporting! This appears to be an issue with docker desktop, not the CLI or Engine itself for more information and builds with a fix, see;

• duplicates Docker CLI commands hanging after upgrade to 4.34.0 #7411

[MihaelaStoica]

Closing this ticket, as the issue has been fixed in Docker Desktop 4.34.2. See release notes.
