Re: [Vserver] anybody has experience for Vserver on ARM
Hi All, I can use "vcmd" command correctly on my ARM phone. However, I can only use vcmd to start a single isolated process, and no way to build a competed guest machine. Anybody know how to use vcmd to build a completed guest? I guess we might be achieve this to copy a new filesystem and start a "init" process by some approach. Because the "vserver build" package does not work on my phone, If vcmd cannot build a completed guest, do we have any other approach to build a guest? Thanks, Wenbin well, there are many different ways to 'build' a guest > For example, I use below command to create the guest: > #/sbin/vserver va780 build -m rpm --context 43 --hostname=va780 --interface > va7800=eth0:192.168.1.2/24 --rootdir /vserver1 --pkgbase /vserver1/.pkg -- > -d fc6 this is one of them, although it has some bugs, like the --hostname= which should be --hostname va780.some.domain ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
Re: [Vserver] anybody has experience for Vserver on ARM
yes, i got the warning message while compile vcmd:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] vcmd-0.08]# make
arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -g -Wall -O2 -Ivserver -o vcmd vcmd.c
In file included from vserver.h:4,
from vcmd.c:34:
syscall.h:110:2: warning: #warning syscall arch arm not tested yet
.
Seems the syscall does not tested on ARM. Anybody make vserver successfully
on ARM? Thank you so much!
Thanks,
Wenbin

well, the syscall trap looks fine, 313 is the syscall
on arm and it seems that util-vserver uses the same
implementation, so that should be fine too ...
you might get a warning at compile time, if that would
be interesting to have, otherwise something with your
toolchain could be wrong ...

Re: [Vserver] anybody has experience for Vserver on ARM
Actually I think the syscall error is because of strace on ARM, not because
of vcmd.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/work/test# ./vcmd
wenbin print: num_cmd = 0, num_id = 0
Illegal instruction
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/work/test# strace -fF -o vcmd.trace ./vcmd
syscall: unknown syscall trap 0xef000139
"unknow syscall" should be a strace bug, I think. The basic failure is
becuase of "illegal instruction" during vserver(num_cmd, num_id, data)
syscall.

This syscall error is occured while "num_ret = vserver(num_cmd, num_id,

syscall?

Re: [Vserver] anybody has experience for Vserver on ARM
I traced the vcmd command. When the vcmd command is run and without
arguments, the error is:
syscall: unknown syscall trap 0xef000139
This syscall error is occured while "num_ret = vserver(num_cmd, num_id,
data);" is executed. I guss ARM is using a different method to register new
syscall?

Re: [Vserver] anybody has experience for Vserver on ARM
Hello, guys,
This time I build a new Vserver enabled kernel and GPE package, now solved
the "Illegal instruction" on ARM.
But I tried "vcmd -i 42 -C ctx_create -- ps auxwww", it just simply hung(but
I can interrupt the command).
Any approach to solve this?
Btw, I tried below command for the vserver kernel, seems OK.

That's pretty good. One more question, If I create 3 vserver processes by this way, and I allow the 3 processes can access only certain files in my machine, for example, only 4 files on my systems. Can I group the 3 processes and 4 files together? say, they can see each other on their vserver domain, but they will not be accessible by other program on my host machine?

Re: [Vserver] anybody has experience for Vserver on ARM
well, depends on _what_ you install and _what_ you actually need, complete kernel and userspace to get the Linux-VServer isolation working should be doable without any libraries and external tools, just with something like vcmd, but if you want the full userspace stuff, including legacy and guest building (which I consider extreme for a phone) you'll have to provide a bunch of tools and libs too ... Hello, Thank you very much for your response. I just want to build the vserver guest, and can login the guest. For example, I use below command to create the guest: #/sbin/vserver va780 build -m rpm --context 43 --hostname=va780 --interface va7800=eth0:192.168.1.2/24 --rootdir /vserver1 --pkgbase /vserver1/.pkg -- -d fc6 #vserver va780 enter What's your mean "get the Linux-VServer isolation working", I guess we definitely need build a guest, right? What's the vcmd doing? I hardly can find downloadable source/binary for vcmd. Thanks, Wenbin ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
Re: [Vserver] anybody has experience for Vserver on ARM
Now I am using "-d fc6" to build the guest. After this, I found vserver need
lots of supporting program:
bzip2, cmp, rpm, yum, python, I have to cross compile them one by one and
install them in the phone.
Now I still found it need some libraries supporting, like libstdc++.so.6..
etc. Maybe it still need more libraries, any idea?
I don't know whether I can make vserver work on phone, it seems too
complicated.

Hi Herbert and Martin,
Now I solved the getopt problem with recompiling the util-vserver package
for ARM, thanks!
Now The vserver script seems can run,
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sbin# vserver
Usage: /sbin/vserver
{start|stop|suexec|restart|condrestart|exec|enter|chkconfig|running|status|delete}
However, I tried to run
#vserver va780 build -m yum --context 43 --hostname=va780 --interface
va7800=eth0:192.168.1.2/24 --rootdir /vserver1 --pkgbase /vserver1/.pkg --
-d gpe
to create a vserver, it told me:
ERROR: Can not find configuration for the distribution 'a780';
please read http://linux-vserver.org/HowToRegisterNewDistributions
for information how to add support for your own distribution.
However, if I remove the "-d" option, it told me:
ERROR: Can not determine distribution; please specify it manually with
the '-d' option.
Any ideas? What distribution should be used for Arm? thanks!

the getopt is a standalone tool which is part of
util-linux (so it should be easy to rebuild that
for arm) alternatively you can use the bash bult-

not really, but it depends on the build method
e.g. template based build methods will not need
any network access, while network :) based ones
will

should be fairly trivial via bluetooth, just make
a pairing with a laptop and configure the network
to route over it, and masquerade the phone's ip

Hi All, Anybody has experiences for Vserver on ARM? I have lots of problems for this. Firstly I compiled the kernel with Vserver, then compiled the util-vserver. However I haven't made the util-vserver run on my Arm phone. The first reason is my arm phone doesnot support Bash while vserver script is based on Bash. Then I installed the Arm Bash on my phone. The next problem is getopt. 'Getopt' is required for Vserver script, but I cannot find a good Getopt source and compile it on Arm. And I also noticed duing Vserver setup phase, the program need connect with outside to download some package. I still haven't find an easy way to connect the Arm phone with internet.

[Vserver] how to make default system running on the top of one vserver?
Hello Guys, I have one question here, how to make default system running on the top of one vserver? That is: - vserver --- host linux hardware --- 1) I setup one server on the default host system.( Both the host system and the verser are linux). 2) After the machine power on and boot, the whole thing will be taken over by the vserver, say, the GUI display, the input are controlled by vserver automatically. After boot, the user were not expected to use the host linux again. 3) But the display/input control still can be switched to the host linux in case of need. After using, the control will be able to switch back to vserver. Any good idea to achieve this?

Re: [Vserver] Re: about Vserver for ARM
Hi Herbert, Thanks! I can build vserver for ARM successfully with your approach, but how to use "make install" to install those verser related files to corrosponding directory in rootfs? For example, my rootfs is under /work/rootfs/opie, how can I install vserver to this directory? Actually I want to use a binary make for ARM to run "make install" on the phone, but I failed to get the ARM version make. Any ideas?

Hi Herbert, Thank you very much! Actually I'd like to send you a phone to test it :-) But before I do that, let me try it firstly :-) Yes I can switch to 2.6, no problems. However I checked the arm-ezx patch, http://www.openezx.org/download/, all the patches are for linux 2.6.16 kernel. However, for Vserver patches, http://ftp.linux-vserver.org/pub/kernel/vs2.0/, they are only 2.6.12, 2.6.14, 2.6.17 version. So the two kind of patches are not for the same version of 2.6 kernel. Moreover, even they are for the same version, for example, 2.6.16 kernel, I guess there are still conflicts if we apply the two patches simutaneously. We have two ways: 1) apply openezx patch, then Vserver patch 2) apply Vserver patch, then openexz patch But we cannot guarantee the two patch have no conflicts each other, any ideas?

Thank you very much! well, here are the good news, the 2.6 patches will work on arm quite well, so given that you can go with 2.6 on your sub-arch, that would simplify it a lot there are also good news when you have to stick with 2.4 for whatever reason, and it basically boils down to the fact that Linux-VServer is quite hardware agnostic, so I do not think it would be too hard to adapt the patches to your vendor specific tree ... so for example I could imagine to adapt the patches for your specific branch if you send me a phone for testing it :) best, Herbert > Thanks, > Wenbin > ___ > Vserver mailing list > Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org > http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
