This guide shows you how to use fscache-based EROFS nydus image service to launch containers with the fscache-enabled in-kernel EROFS on-demand download feature.
Be aware of using the fscache-enabled EROFS kernel (Linux 5.19+), it can be built with the following steps:
-
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
or (mirror in china):git://kernel.source.codeaurora.cn/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
-
make olddefconfig
-
make menuconfig
to update .config to enable the follow kernel configurations:
CONFIG_FSCACHE=m
CONFIG_CACHEFILES=m
CONFIG_CACHEFILES_ONDEMAND=y
CONFIG_EROFS_FS=m
CONFIG_EROFS_FS_ONDEMAND=y
-
make -jX
-
make modules_install && make install
-
Reboot to the kernel just built
-
modprobe cachefiles
if cachefiles is built as module -
[ -c /dev/cachefiles ] && echo ok
If you want to use an existing kernel, you could use OpenAnolis, it adds support for fscache mode since kernel version 4.19.91-27 or 5.10.134-12.
Update the kernel to 4.19.91-27 on OpenAnolis 8 as an example:
$ sudo yum list --showduplicate kernel --enablerepo Plus

$ sudo yum update kernel --enablerepo Plus
$ sudo reboot
-
[ -c /dev/cachefiles ] && echo ok
to test fscache is enable or not. If your result showsok
, then fscache has been already enabled; otherwise, please follow the following steps to enable fscache. -
Download cachefilesd package. For centos users, the command is:
sudo yum install cachefilesd
- Start cachefilesd deamon.
sudo systemctl start cachefilesd
sudo systemctl status cachefilesd
- Ensure the device file
/dev/cachefiles
is not occupied. If your result is not empty, please kill all processes the result shows.
sudo lsof /dev/cachefiles
-
Make sure you have installed rust 1.52.1 version and golang.
-
Check out the latest nydus source code with
git clone https://github.com/dragonflyoss/nydus.git
-
Build nydusd and nydus-image with
cd nydus
make release
-
Copy the "nydus-image" binary file compiled in Step 3 into $PATH e.g. /usr/bin with
cp target/release/nydus-image /usr/bin
-
Build ctr-remote with
cd contrib/ctr-remote
make
-
Make sure your containerd version is 1.4 or above.
-
Get nydus snapshotter with EROFS supported:
# clone code
git clone https://github.com/containerd/nydus-snapshotter.git
# compile binary to ./bin/containerd-nydus-grpc
cd nydus-snapshotter
make
- Prepare a configuration json like below, named as
/etc/nydus/nydusd-config.fscache.json
:
{
"type": "bootstrap",
"config": {
"backend_type": "registry",
"backend_config": {
"scheme": "https"
},
"cache_type": "fscache"
}
}
- Start nydus snapshotter with the command below:
# make sure the directory exists.
mkdir -p /var/lib/containerd-nydus
./bin/containerd-nydus-grpc \
--nydusd-config /etc/nydus/nydusd-config.fscache.json \
--fs-driver fscache \
--nydusd /path/to/nydusd \
--log-to-stdout
- Configure containerd to use
nydus-snapshotter
by editing/etc/containerd/config.toml
like below:
version = 2
[plugins]
[plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri"]
[plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".cni]
bin_dir = "/usr/lib/cni"
conf_dir = "/etc/cni/net.d"
[plugins."io.containerd.internal.v1.opt"]
path = "/var/lib/containerd/opt"
[proxy_plugins]
[proxy_plugins.nydus]
type = "snapshot"
address = "/run/containerd-nydus/containerd-nydus-grpc.sock"
[plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".containerd]
snapshotter = "nydus"
disable_snapshot_annotations = false
For more information on how to configure containerd to use nydus snapshotter please refer to here.
-
Restart containerd with
service containerd restart
-
Run container with ctr-remote
# pull nydus image
contrib/ctr-remote/bin/ctr-remote images rpull docker.io/hsiangkao/ubuntu:20.04-rafs-v6
# run nydus image
ctr run --rm -t --snapshotter=nydus docker.io/hsiangkao/ubuntu:20.04-rafs-v6 ubuntu /bin/bash
# remove nydus image
ctr images rm docker.io/hsiangkao/ubuntu:20.04-rafs-v6
Some RAFS v6 referenced images (in Zstd algorithms):
docker.io/hsiangkao/ubuntu:20.04-rafs-v6
docker.io/hsiangkao/ubuntu:22.04-rafs-v6
docker.io/hsiangkao/wordpress:5.7-rafs-v6
docker.io/hsiangkao/wordpress:6.0-rafs-v6
- Get nydus image conversion tool
accelctl
# clone acceld code
git clone https://github.com/goharbor/acceleration-service.git
# compile binary to ./accelctl
cd acceleration-service
make
- Convert to nydus image
Duplicate ./misc/config/config.yaml.nydus.tmpl
configuration file as path/to/config.yaml
, make sure that the rafs_version
option in converter.driver.config
is changed to 6
and the registry auth have been configured in provider.source
.
# convert to nydus image
./accelctl convert --config path/to/config.yaml <your-registry-address>/ubuntu:latest
