--- title: containerd to firecracker date: 2021-05-15 --- fly.io had an [interesting article](https://fly.io/blog/docker-without-docker/) about how they use docker images to create VMs for `firecracker`. They describe the process as follow: 1. Pull a container from a registry 2. Create a loop device to store the container's filesystem on 3. Unpack the container into the mounted loop device 4. Create a second block device and inject init, kernel, configuration and other stuff 5. Attach persistent volumes (if any) 6. Create a TAP device and configure it 7. Hand it off to Firecracker and boot that thing That's pretty detailed, and I'm curious how difficult it is to implement this. I've been meaning to look into Firecracker for a while and into containers'd API, so this is a perfect opportunity to get started. The code is available [here](https://git.fcuny.net/containerd-to-vm/). ## #1 Pull a container from a registry with `containerd` `containerd` has a pretty [detailed documentation](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/containerd/containerd). From the main page we can see the following example to create a client. ```go import ( "github.com/containerd/containerd" "github.com/containerd/containerd/cio" ) func main() { client, err := containerd.New("/run/containerd/containerd.sock") defer client.Close() } ``` And pulling an image is also pretty straightforward: ```go image, err := client.Pull(context, "docker.io/library/redis:latest") ``` The `Pull` method returns an [`Image`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/containerd/containerd@v1.4.4/images#Image) and there's a few methods associated with it. As `containerd` has namespaces, it's possible to specify the namespace we want to use when working with the API: ```go ctx := namespaces.WithNamespace(context.Background(), "c2vm") image, err := client.Pull(ctx, "docker.io/library/redis:latest") ``` The image will now be stored in the `c2vm` namespace. We can verify this with: ```bash ; sudo ctr -n c2vm images ls -q docker.io/library/redis:latest ``` ## #2 Create a loop device to store the container's filesystem on This is going to be pretty straightforward. To create a loop device we need to: 1. pre-allocate space to a file 2. convert that file to some format 3. mount it to some destination There's two commons ways to pre-allocate space to a file: `dd` and `fallocate` (there's likely way more ways to do this). I'll go with `fallocate` for this example. First, to be safe, we create a temporary file, and use `renameio` to handle the renaming (I recommend reading the doc of the module). ```go f, err := renameio.TempFile("", rawFile) if err != nil { return err } defer f.Cleanup() ``` Now to do the pre-allocation (we're making an assumption here that 2GB is enough, we can likely check what's the size of the container before doing this): ```go command := exec.Command("fallocate", "-l", "2G", f.Name()) if err := command.Run(); err != nil { return fmt.Errorf("fallocate error: %s", err) } ``` We can now convert that file to ext4: ```go command = exec.Command("mkfs.ext4", "-F", f.Name()) if err := command.Run(); err != nil { return fmt.Errorf("mkfs.ext4 error: %s", err) } ``` Now we can rename safely the temporary file to the proper file we want: ```go f.CloseAtomicallyReplace() ``` And to mount that file ```go command = exec.Command("mount", "-o", "loop", rawFile, mntDir) if err := command.Run(); err != nil { return fmt.Errorf("mount error: %s", err) } ``` ## #3 Unpack the container into the mounted loop device Extracting the container using `containerd` is pretty simple. Here's the function that I use: ```go func extract(ctx context.Context, client *containerd.Client, image containerd.Image, mntDir string) error { manifest, err := images.Manifest(ctx, client.ContentStore(), image.Target(), platform) if err != nil { log.Fatalf("failed to get the manifest: %v\n", err) } for _, desc := range manifest.Layers { log.Printf("extracting layer %s\n", desc.Digest.String()) layer, err := client.ContentStore().ReaderAt(ctx, desc) if err != nil { return err } if err := archive.Untar(content.NewReader(layer), mntDir, &archive.TarOptions{NoLchown: true}); err != nil { return err } } return nil } ``` Calling `images.Manifest` returns the [manifest](https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/master/manifest.md) from the image. What we care here are the list of layers. Here I'm making a number of assumptions regarding their type (we should be checking the media type first). We read the layers and extract them to the mounted path. ## #4 Create a second block device and inject other stuff Here I'm going to deviate a bit. I will not create a second loop device, and I will not inject a kernel. In their article, they provided a link to a snapshot of their `init` process (). In order to keep this simple, our init is going to be a shell script composed of the content of the entry point of the container. We're also going to add a few extra files to container (`/etc/hosts` and `/etc/resolv.conf`). Finally, since we've pre-allocated 2GB for that container, and we likely don't need that much, we're also going to resize the image. ### Add init Let's refer to the [specification for the config](https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/master/config.md). The elements that are of interest to me are: - `Env`, which is array of strings. They contain the environment variables that likely we need to run the program - `Cmd`, which is also an array of strings. If there's no entry point provided, this is what is used. At this point, for this experiment, I'm going to ignore exposed ports, working directory, and the user. First we need to read the config from the container. This is easily done: ```go config, err := images.Config(ctx, client.ContentStore(), image.Target(), platform) if err != nil { return err } ``` This needs to be read and decoded: ```go configBlob, err := content.ReadBlob(ctx, client.ContentStore(), config) var imageSpec ocispec.Image json.Unmarshal(configBlob, &imageSpec) ``` `init` is the first process started by Linux during boot. On a regular Linux desktop you likely have a symbolic link from `/usr/bin/init` to `/usr/lib/systemd/systemd`, since most distributions have switched to `systemd`. For my use case however, I want to run a single process, and I want it to be the one from the container. For this we can create a simple shell script inside the container (the location does not matter for now) with the environment variables and the command. Naively, this can be done like this: ```go initPath := filepath.Join(mntDir, "init.sh") f, err := renameio.TempFile("", initPath) if err != nil { return err } defer f.Cleanup() writer := bufio.NewWriter(f) fmt.Fprintf(writer, "#!/bin/sh\n") for _, env := range initEnvs { fmt.Fprintf(writer, "export %s\n", env) } fmt.Fprintf(writer, "%s\n", initCmd) writer.Flush() f.CloseAtomicallyReplace() mode := int(0755) os.Chmod(initPath, os.FileMode(mode)) ``` We're once again creating a temporary file with `renamio`, and we're writing our shell scripts, one line at a time. We only need to make sure this executable. ### extra files Once we have our init file, I also want to add a few extra files: `/etc/hosts` and `/etc/resolv.conf`. This files are not always present, since they can be injected by other systems. I also want to make sure that DNS resolutions are done using my own DNS server. ### resize the image We've pre-allocated 2GB for the image, and it's likely we don't need as much space. We can do this by running `e2fsck` and `resize2fs` once we're done manipulating the image. Within a function, we can do the following: ```go command := exec.Command("/usr/bin/e2fsck", "-p", "-f", rawFile) if err := command.Run(); err != nil { return fmt.Errorf("e2fsck error: %s", err) } command = exec.Command("resize2fs", "-M", rawFile) if err := command.Run(); err != nil { return fmt.Errorf("resize2fs error: %s", err) } ``` I'm using `docker.io/library/redis:latest` for my test, and I end up with the following size for the image: ```bash -rw------- 1 root root 216M Apr 22 14:50 /tmp/fcuny.img ``` ### Kernel We're going to need a kernel to run that VM. In my case I've decided to go with version 5.8, and build a custom kernel. If you are not familiar with the process, the firecracker team has [documented how to do this](https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/blob/main/docs/rootfs-and-kernel-setup.md#creating-a-kernel-image). In my case all I had to do was: ```bash git clone https://github.com/torvalds/linux.git linux.git cd linux.git git checkout v5.8 curl -o .config -s https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/blob/main/resources/microvm-kernel-x86_64.config make menuconfig make vmlinux -j8 ``` Note that they also have a pretty [good documentation for production](https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/blob/main/docs/prod-host-setup.md). ## #5 Attach persistent volumes (if any) I'm going to skip that step for now. ## #6 Create a TAP device and configure it We're going to need a network for that VM (otherwise it might be a bit boring). There's a few solutions that we can take: 1. create the TAP device 2. delegate all that work to a [CNI](https://github.com/containernetworking/cni) I've decided to use the CNI approach [documented in the Go's SDK](https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker-go-sdk#cni). For this to work we need to install the `tc-redirect-tap` CNI plugin (available at ). Based on that documentation, I'll start with the following configuration in `etc/cni/conf.d/50-c2vm.conflist`: ```json { "name": "c2vm", "cniVersion": "0.4.0", "plugins": [ { "type": "bridge", "bridge": "c2vm-br", "isDefaultGateway": true, "forceAddress": false, "ipMasq": true, "hairpinMode": true, "mtu": 1500, "ipam": { "type": "host-local", "subnet": "192.168.128.0/24", "resolvConf": "/etc/resolv.conf" } }, { "type": "firewall" }, { "type": "tc-redirect-tap" } ] } ``` ## #7 Hand it off to Firecracker and boot that thing Now that we have all the components, we need to boot that VM. Since I've been working with Go so far, I'll also use the [Go SDK](https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker-go-sdk) to manage and start the VM. For this we need the firecracker binary, which we can [find on GitHub](https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/releases). The first thing is to configure the list of devices. In our case we will have a single device, the boot drive that we've created in the previous step. ```go devices := make([]models.Drive, 1) devices[0] = models.Drive{ DriveID: firecracker.String("1"), PathOnHost: &rawImage, IsRootDevice: firecracker.Bool(true), IsReadOnly: firecracker.Bool(false), } ``` The next step is to configure the VM: ```go fcCfg := firecracker.Config{ LogLevel: "debug", SocketPath: firecrackerSock, KernelImagePath: linuxKernel, KernelArgs: "console=ttyS0 reboot=k panic=1 acpi=off pci=off i8042.noaux i8042.nomux i8042.nopnp i8042.dumbkbd init=/init.sh random.trust_cpu=on", Drives: devices, MachineCfg: models.MachineConfiguration{ VcpuCount: firecracker.Int64(1), CPUTemplate: models.CPUTemplate("C3"), HtEnabled: firecracker.Bool(true), MemSizeMib: firecracker.Int64(512), }, NetworkInterfaces: []firecracker.NetworkInterface{ { CNIConfiguration: &firecracker.CNIConfiguration{ NetworkName: "c2vm", IfName: "eth0", }, }, }, } ``` Finally we can create the command to start and run the VM: ```go command := firecracker.VMCommandBuilder{}. WithBin(firecrackerBinary). WithSocketPath(fcCfg.SocketPath). WithStdin(os.Stdin). WithStdout(os.Stdout). WithStderr(os.Stderr). Build(ctx) machineOpts = append(machineOpts, firecracker.WithProcessRunner(command)) m, err := firecracker.NewMachine(vmmCtx, fcCfg, machineOpts...) if err != nil { panic(err) } if err := m.Start(vmmCtx); err != nil { panic(err) } defer m.StopVMM() if err := m.Wait(vmmCtx); err != nil { panic(err) } ``` The end result: ; sudo ./c2vm -container docker.io/library/redis:latest -firecracker-binary ./hack/firecracker/firecracker-v0.24.3-x86_64 -linux-kernel ./hack/linux/my-linux.bin -out /tmp/redis.img 2021/05/15 14:12:59 pulled docker.io/library/redis:latest (38690247 bytes) 2021/05/15 14:13:00 mounted /tmp/redis.img on /tmp/c2vm026771514 2021/05/15 14:13:00 extracting layer sha256:69692152171afee1fd341febc390747cfca2ff302f2881d8b394e786af605696 2021/05/15 14:13:00 extracting layer sha256:a4a46f2fd7e06fab84b4e78eb2d1b6d007351017f9b18dbeeef1a9e7cf194e00 2021/05/15 14:13:00 extracting layer sha256:bcdf6fddc3bdaab696860eb0f4846895c53a3192c9d7bf8d2275770ea8073532 2021/05/15 14:13:01 extracting layer sha256:b7e9b50900cc06838c44e0fc5cbebe5c0b3e7f70c02f32dd754e1aa6326ed566 2021/05/15 14:13:01 extracting layer sha256:5f3030c50d85a9d2f70adb610b19b63290c6227c825639b227ddc586f86d1c76 2021/05/15 14:13:01 extracting layer sha256:63dae8e0776cdbd63909fbd9c047c1615a01cb21b73efa87ae2feed680d3ffa1 2021/05/15 14:13:01 init script created 2021/05/15 14:13:01 umount /tmp/c2vm026771514 INFO[0003] Called startVMM(), setting up a VMM on firecracker.sock INFO[0003] VMM logging disabled.
