Funtoo Xen Fun We are talking about Xen on Funtoo Linux and how to setup Xen virtualization properly. Especially, we are going to show you how much fun it is to work with Xen hosts and domU's and setting up a Funtoo Xen Server without general clicky GUI's or other frontends. This is true hardcore OS Xen setup especially for NOC server systems, headless servers, etc..

Funtoo Xen Server with paravirt funtoo domU

Assumptions We build a 64bit headless XEN hypervisor rockstable and rocket fast with a funtoo headless 64bit paravirt domU. We are not building Xen with pvgrub or hvm (which is kinda slow and overhead as long as you don't want to install Windoze).

Buiding Funtoo Xen Host Dom0

Most of the necessary steps are covered in the Installation Tutorial. We only do outline here the steps that are necessary to enjoy an easy and successful Dom0 setup or if something differs from the normal installation tutorial.

Please, open in a second tab the Installation Tutorial and follow in both carefully the next steps!

Basic Funtoo Xen Host Dom0 setup

I recommend you use only stable packages for the host dom0 !

Please consider the decision carefully. I can't stress out enough, you will avoid a lot of problems taking the stable distrib as dom0. The domU guests could be either unstable or hardened, as you wish! There comes the true fun part ;-) That's why I first edit my make.conf befor building anything!

Here is how I set up the system basics: Disk is /dev/sda

/dev/sda1 is our / partition ca 20GB ext4 
/dev/sda2 is our swap partition ca 4GB
/dev/sda3 holds the lvm volume group vgxen

I am using volume groups over raid - which I strongly advice to everybody.

Store of xen stuff:

/etc/xen/ --> xend configuration files
/xen/configs/ --> my xen domU configuration files folder 
/xen/kernel/ --> my xen domU kernel folder 
/xen/disks/ --> my xen domU image files folder

Edit /etc/rc.conf and uncomment the line at the bottom for rc_sys

rc_sys="xen0"

Configure and Build Xen Dom0 Kernel

emerge gentoo-sources
cd /usr/src/linux
make menuconfig

These settings are current as of 3.2.1-gentoo-r2, other versions may vary:

General setup  --->
   <*> Kernel .config support
      [*]   Enable access to .config through /proc/config.gz

Processor type and features  ---> 
   [*] Paravirtualized guest support  ---> 
      [*]   Xen guest support

Bus options (PCI etc.)  --->
   [*]   Xen PCI Frontend   

[*] Networking support  --->
   Networking options  --->
      <*> 802.1d Ethernet Bridging

Device Drivers  ---> 
   [*] Block devices (NEW)  --->
      <M>   DRBD Distributed Replicated Block Device support
      < >   Xen virtual block device support
      <*>   Xen block-device backend driver

      <M> userspace grant access device driver (NEW) 
      <M> User-space grant reference allocator driver (NEW) 
      <M> xen platform pci device driver (NEW)

   < > Ext3 journalling file system support
   <*> The Extended 4 (ext4) filesystem
   [*]   Use ext4 for ext2/ext3 file systems (NEW)
   [*]   Ext4 extended attributes (NEW)
  • Don't forget to add the required drivers for your networking and sata cards
  • If you use RAID, make sure to add the correct CONFIG_MD_RAID* entries to your config
make
make modules_install

If you experience issues with connecting to the console ensure the module "xen_gntdev" (userspace grant access device driver) is loaded before the xenconsoled process is started (you may have to restart it after loading the module).

Configuring Grub

Work has been completed to automatically enable Xen Grub entries, so after you copy your dom0 kernel edit your /etc/boot.conf as follows:

"Funtoo on Xen" {
  type xen
  xenkernel xen.gz
  xenparams loglvl=all guest_loglvl=all xsave=1 iommu=1 iommu_inclusive_mapping=1 dom0_max_vcpus=2 dom0_vcpus_pin dom0_mem=4096M 
  kernel kernel[-v]
  params += quiet
}

To note a fiew things iommu is the paravirtualized instructions, if your motherboard or CPU does not support VT-d do not enable it. Xsave saves the supported CPU instruction sets, without it you're dom0 kernel may not boot. And finally dom0_vcpus_pin permanatly assigns cpu's to dom0, increasing performance.

Basic Networking with the Dom0

Funtoo Linux offers its own modular, template-based network configuration system. This system offers a lot of flexibility for configuring network interfaces, essentially serving as a "network interface construction kit."

There is given eth0 and eth1. We are going to set eth0 as the default interface to the outside world for now. eth1 will be part of a bridge (xenbr0) that is going to be used by various domU guests.

Construct the interfaces:

cd /etc/init.d/
ln -s netif.tmpl netif.xenbr0
ln -s netif.tmpl netif.extbr0
ln -s netif.tmpl netif.eth0
ln -s netif.tmpl netif.eth1
rc-update add netif.xenbr0 sysinit
rc-update add netif.extbr0 sysinit

Make sure dhcpcd, eth0 and eth1 don't start at boot:

rc-update del dhcpcd sysinit
rc-update del netif.eth0 sysinit
rc-update del netif.eth1 sysinit

Configure the slave interfaces:

cd /etc/conf.d/
echo 'template="interface-noip"' > netif.eth0
echo 'template="interface-noip"' > netif.eth1

Then we are going to prepare the bridges.

nano netif.xenbr0

here we set the internal Xen bridge:

template="bridge"
ipaddr="10.0.1.200/24"
gateway="10.0.1.1"
nameservers="10.0.1.1 10.0.1.2"
domain="funtoo.org"
slaves="netif.eth0"

Then we are setting up the external interface:

nano netif.extbr0

this is looking quiet similar, please watch out for the correct slave setting!

template="bridge"
ipaddr="10.0.1.201/24"
gateway="10.0.1.1"
nameservers="10.0.1.1 10.0.1.2"
domain="funtoo.org"
slaves="netif.eth1"

This gives us the possibility to play around with various setups later, it's modular and easy to tweak and change.

Better you invoke with "rc" on the command line the openrc script and test if the network cards get initialized correctly.

Basic Networking with domU

The easiest way is to let Xen set up the networking. But if everything is up and running it is not possible to change the routings, etc. Letting Xen do the bridges will be obsolete in the near future. So this is not the recommended way anymore. As we already set up the bridges in the previous section it may be enough to comment everything network related. If not, just un-comment the last lines.

We edit the /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp

#### Xen config from maiwald.tk - Xen 4.x Network in bridge mode

(logfile /var/log/xen/xend.log)
(loglevel DEBUG)

(xend-relocation-server no)
(xend-relocation-hosts-allow '^localhost$ ^localhost\\.localdomain$')

# The limit (in kilobytes) on the size of the console buffer
(console-limit 1024)

(dom0-min-mem 384)
(enable-dom0-ballooning no)

(total_available_memory 0)
(dom0-cpus 0)

(vncpasswd 'geheim')

# let xen create the net
# (network-script    network-bridge)
# (vif-script        vif-bridge)

# we create the net - new default in Xen 4
#
#(network-script 'network-bridge netdev=eth0 bridge=xenbr0 vifnum=0')
#(vif-script vif-bridge bridge=xenbr0)

Building the Funtoo Xen DomU Container

We are going to build the DomU now, preparing first from outside the domU.

create lvm volume or partition or image file

This is a stub, please help completing this guide here!

root # vgcreate vgxen /dev/sda3
root # lvcreate -L10G -n funtoo_root vgxen
root # lvcreate -L1G -n funtoo_swap vgxen
root # vgchange -a y
root # mkfs.ext4 -L funtoo_root /dev/vgxen/funtoo_root
root # mkswap -L funtoo_swap /dev/vgxen/funtoo_swap
root # rc-update add lvm boot

Basic DomU System setup

mount domU lvm volume or physical partition or image file

root # mkdir /mnt/domu1
root # mount /dev/vgxen/funtoo_root /mnt/domu1
root # cd /mnt/domu1

get stage3

from a funtoo mirror near you, I suggest you look at the funtoo homepage

root # links http://www.funtoo.org/wiki/Download 

Then choose a mirror near you ( I use Heanet in EU ) and look for the right stage3. I use XEON CPUs so I take the core2 distrib:

root # wget -cv http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/funtoo/funtoo-stable/x86-64bit/core2_64/stage3-latest.tar.xz 

Unfortunately I can't find md5sums or similar which is really unpleasant.

then get latest portage tree from the snapshots firectory

root # wget -cv http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/funtoo/funtoo-stable/snapshots/portage-current.tar.xz 

extract stage3

root # tar xpf stage3-current.tar.xz

extract portage

root # cd usr
root # tar xf ../portage-current.tar.xz 

Preparing the chroot environment

Editing the make.conf

copy /etc/make.conf from dom0 and adjust it

root # cp /etc/portage/make.conf /mnt/domu1/etc/

make sure to adjust MAKEOPTS to your assigned CPUs (rule of thumb cpu cores +1 - yes, even in XEN)

root # nano -w /mnt/domu1/etc/portage/make.conf

out there the MAKEOPTS variable in:

MAKEOPTS="-j2"

copy /etc/resolv.conf

root # cp -L /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/domu1/etc/ 

mount proc and dev

root # mount -t proc none /mnt/domu1/proc
root # mount --rbind /dev /mnt/domu1/dev 

Building Funtoo Xen Guest(s) DomU

Final DomU System setup

chroot

root # chroot /mnt/domu1 /bin/bash
root # env-update
root # source /etc/profile
root # export PS1="(domU-chroot) $PS1" 

sync portage

 
root # emerge --sync

set locales

root # nano -w /etc/locale.gen
root # locale-gen

set your timezone

(choose your timezone in /usr/share/zoneinfo)

root # cp -L /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Amsterdam /etc/localtime

edit /etc/fstab (see also gentoo handbook as reference)

we assume that we name our root partition xvda1 and the swap partition xvda2 in our domU-xen-config (we will do that later)

root # nano -w /etc/fstab
/dev/xvda1      /              ext4    noatime 0 1
/dev/xvda2      none           swap    sw      0 0
shm             /dev/shm       tmpfs   nodev,nosuid,noexec     0 0

Now comes the most important stuff

please just copy this into your terminal:

'> /etc/motd

We are using the echo instead of „emerge --moo „ as larry still moo's in gentoo'ish

So that's it - almost.

adding networking to the domU:

(domU-chroot) # cd /etc/init.d/
(domU-chroot) # ln -sf netif.tmpl netif.eth0
(domU-chroot) # rc-update add netif.eth0
 * service netif.eth0 added to runlevel sysinit

Now we are ready to do the last setups

(domU-chroot) # emerge eix

After that I am feeling better now, I do the rest..

(domU-chroot) # eix-update 
Reading Portage settings ..
Building database (/var/cache/eix) ..
[0] "gentoo" /usr/portage/ (cache: metadata-md5-or-flat)
     Reading category 154|154 (100%) Finished             
Applying masks ..
Calculating hash tables ..
Writing database file /var/cache/eix ..
Database contains 15729 packages in 154 categories.

(domU-chroot) # exit 
exit

From here you have to decide how you want to run your domU: with unpriviledged users and sudo ? or with a root account enabled? as a webserver or firewall?

Me, personally, I always do install openssh server and just place my ssh keys in there. From there the steps differ.

(dom0-xen) # cp /root/.ssh/authorized_keys /mnt/domu1/root/.ssh/

Also, don't forget here to enable PubKeyAuth in your sshd_config in your domU and set PermitRootLogin to yes!

Double checking! Does your domU kernel uses modules or not? If you haven't built a monolitic kernel you should copy the modules from the dom0 to the domU now:

(dom0-xen) # mkdir /mnt/domu1/lib/modules
(dom0-xen) # rsync -aP /lib/modules/2.6.38-xen-maiwald.tk-dom0 /mnt/domu1/lib/modules/

Ok, that's it from here..

Don't forget to clean up the mounts!

(dom0-xen) # cd
(dom0-xen) # umount -l /mnt/domu1/proc
(dom0-xen) # umount -l /mnt/domu1/dev
(dom0-xen) # umount -l /mnt/domu1

That's it! ;-)

Booting the Xen DomU Guest

Ok, let's try the first boot of the newly created Xen DomU in Funtoo!

(dom0-xen) # cd /xen
(dom0-xen) # xm create -c configs/funtoo.cfg

Huuuuiiiii......

This is localhost.unknown_domain (Linux x86_64 2.6.38-xen-maiwald.tk-domU) 17:27:40

localhost login: 

Finalizing the setup

Now we test if we can reach the DomU from our Desktop:

(2034)-~% ssh -lroot 217.x.x.211  
The authenticity of host '217.x.x.211 (217.x.x.211)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 22:e3:xxxxxxxx:b0:3c:xxxxx:d6:e5:c3.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added '217.x.x.211' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
Enter passphrase for key '/home/mm/.ssh/id_rsa': 
localhost ~ # uname -a
Linux localhost 2.6.38-xen-maiwald.tk-domU #4 SMP Wed Feb 8 17:30:33 CET 2012 x86_64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3110 @ 3.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
localhost ~ # 

All seems good for now.

Now switch back to the Funto Installation Tutorial and go on with setting up your new domU guest like a normal funtoo linux system!

Please consider to help supporting this Wiki with editing this page and keeping it current!

Funtoo is a perfect Xen Host and I can really recommend it to everybody as an alternative to .deb/.rpm Systems.

Have fun!
