- * Inter-guest networking is an interesting area. Simplest is to have a
- * --sharenet=<name> option which opens or creates a named pipe. This can be
- * used to send packets to another guest in a 1:1 manner.
- *
- * More sophisticated is to use one of the tools developed for project like UML
- * to do networking.
- *
- * Faster is to do virtio bonding in kernel. Doing this 1:1 would be
- * completely generic ("here's my vring, attach to your vring") and would work
- * for any traffic. Of course, namespace and permissions issues need to be
- * dealt with. A more sophisticated "multi-channel" virtio_net.c could hide
- * multiple inter-guest channels behind one interface, although it would
- * require some manner of hotplugging new virtio channels.
- *
- * Finally, we could use a virtio network switch in the kernel, ie. vhost.

- (___()'`; Rusty's Remarkably Unreliable Guide to Lguest
- /, /` - or, A Young Coder's Illustrated Hypervisor
- \\"--\\ http://lguest.ozlabs.org
-
-Lguest is designed to be a minimal 32-bit x86 hypervisor for the Linux kernel,
-for Linux developers and users to experiment with virtualization with the
-minimum of complexity. Nonetheless, it should have sufficient features to
-make it useful for specific tasks, and, of course, you are encouraged to fork
-and enhance it (see drivers/lguest/README).
-
-Features:
-
-- Kernel module which runs in a normal kernel.
-- Simple I/O model for communication.
-- Simple program to create new guests.
-- Logo contains cute puppies: http://lguest.ozlabs.org
-
-Developer features:
-
-- Fun to hack on.
-- No ABI: being tied to a specific kernel anyway, you can change anything.
-- Many opportunities for improvement or feature implementation.
-
-Running Lguest:
-
-- The easiest way to run lguest is to use same kernel as guest and host.
- You can configure them differently, but usually it's easiest not to.
-
- You will need to configure your kernel with the following options:
-
- "General setup":
- "Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers" = Y
- (CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL=y)
-
- "Processor type and features":
- "Paravirtualized guest support" = Y
- "Lguest guest support" = Y
- "High Memory Support" = off/4GB
- "Alignment value to which kernel should be aligned" = 0x100000
- (CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y, CONFIG_LGUEST_GUEST=y, CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G=n and
- CONFIG_PHYSICAL_ALIGN=0x100000)
-
- "Device Drivers":
- "Block devices"
- "Virtio block driver (EXPERIMENTAL)" = M/Y
- "Network device support"
- "Universal TUN/TAP device driver support" = M/Y
- "Virtio network driver (EXPERIMENTAL)" = M/Y
- (CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK=m, CONFIG_VIRTIO_NET=m and CONFIG_TUN=m)
-
- "Virtualization"
- "Linux hypervisor example code" = M/Y
- (CONFIG_LGUEST=m)
-
-- A tool called "lguest" is available in this directory: type "make"
- to build it. If you didn't build your kernel in-tree, use "make
- O=<builddir>".
-
-- Create or find a root disk image. There are several useful ones
- around, such as the xm-test tiny root image at
- http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/initrd-1.1-i386.img
-
- For more serious work, I usually use a distribution ISO image and
- install it under qemu, then make multiple copies:
-
- dd if=/dev/zero of=rootfile bs=1M count=2048
- qemu -cdrom image.iso -hda rootfile -net user -net nic -boot d
-
- Make sure that you install a getty on /dev/hvc0 if you want to log in on the
- console!
-
-- "modprobe lg" if you built it as a module.
-
-- Run an lguest as root:
-
- Documentation/virtual/lguest/lguest 64 vmlinux --tunnet=192.168.19.1 \
- --block=rootfile root=/dev/vda
-
- Explanation:
- 64: the amount of memory to use, in MB.
-
- vmlinux: the kernel image found in the top of your build directory. You
- can also use a standard bzImage.
-
- --tunnet=192.168.19.1: configures a "tap" device for networking with this
- IP address.
-
- --block=rootfile: a file or block device which becomes /dev/vda
- inside the guest.
-
- root=/dev/vda: this (and anything else on the command line) are
- kernel boot parameters.
-
-- Configuring networking. I usually have the host masquerade, using
- "iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE" and "echo 1 >
- /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward". In this example, I would configure
- eth0 inside the guest at 192.168.19.2.
-
- Another method is to bridge the tap device to an external interface
- using --tunnet=bridge:<bridgename>, and perhaps run dhcp on the guest
- to obtain an IP address. The bridge needs to be configured first:
- this option simply adds the tap interface to it.
-
- A simple example on my system:
-
- ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0
- brctl addbr lg0
- ifconfig lg0 up
- brctl addif lg0 eth0
- dhclient lg0
-
- Then use --tunnet=bridge:lg0 when launching the guest.
-
- See:
-
- http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/bridge
-
- for general information on how to get bridging to work.
-
-- Random number generation. Using the --rng option will provide a
- /dev/hwrng in the guest that will read from the host's /dev/random.
- Use this option in conjunction with rng-tools (see ../hw_random.txt)
- to provide entropy to the guest kernel's /dev/random.
-
-There is a helpful mailing list at http://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/lguest
-
-Good luck!
