Getting started guide for Intel NUC

The Intel® NUC is the primary tested platform for ACRN development, and its setup is described below.

Hardware setup

Intel Apollo Lake NUC (APL) and Intel Kaby Lake NUC (KBL), described in Supported Hardware, are currently supported for ACRN development:

  • We can enable the serial console on KBL (NUC7i7DN), but this is not supported on APL (NUC6CAYH).

Connecting to the serial port

If you don’t need a serial console you can ignore this section.

Neither the APL or KBL NUCs present an external serial port interface. However, the KBL NUC does have a serial port header you can expose with a serial DB9 header cable. You can build this cable yourself, referring to the KBL NUC product specification as shown below:

../_images/KBL-serial-port-header.png

Figure 21 KBL serial port header details

Or you can purchase such a cable.

You’ll also need an RS232 DB9 female to USB cable, or an RS232 DB9 female/female (NULL modem) cross-over cable to connect to your host system.

Note

If you want to use the RS232 DB9 female/female cable, please choose the cross-over type rather than straight-through type.

Firmware update on the NUC

You may need to update to the latest UEFI firmware for the NUC hardware. Follow these BIOS Update Instructions for downloading and flashing an updated BIOS for the NUC.

Software setup

Set up a Clear Linux Operating System

We begin by installing Clear Linux* as the development OS on the NUC. The Clear Linux release includes an acrn.efi hypervisor application that will be added to the EFI partition (by the quick setup script or manually, as described below).

Note

Please refer to the ACRN Release Notes for the Clear Linux OS version number tested with a specific ACRN release. Adjust the instruction below to reference the appropriate version number of Clear Linux OS (we use version 30210 as an example).

  1. Download the compressed Clear Linux OS installer image from https://download.clearlinux.org/releases/30210/clear/clear-30210-live-server.img.xz and follow the Clear Linux OS installation guide as a starting point for installing Clear Linux OS onto your platform. Follow the recommended options for choosing an Advanced options installation type, and using the platform’s storage as the target device for installation (overwriting the existing data).

    When setting up Clear Linux on your NUC:

    1. Launch the Clear Linux OS installer boot menu

    2. With Clear Linux OS highlighted, select Enter

    3. Login with your root account, and new password

    4. Run the installer using the command:

      $ clr-installer

    5. From the Main Menu, select “Configure Media” and set “Auto Partition” to your desired hard disk.

    6. Select “Telemetry” to set Tab to highlight your choice.

    7. Press A to show the “Advanced options”.

    8. Select “Additional Bundle Selection” to add bundles for “desktop-autostart”, “editors”, “network-basic”, “user-basic”

    9. Select “User Manager” to add an administrative user “clear” and password.

    10. Select “Assign Hostname” to set the hostname as “clr-sos-guest”

    11. Select Confirm to start installation.

  2. After installation is complete, boot into Clear Linux OS, login as clear (using the password you set earlier).

  3. The instructions below provide details for setting up the ACRN Hypervisor, Service OS, and Guest OS. Along with the manual step details, We also provide an automated script that does all these steps for you, so you can skip these manual steps. See the quick-setup-guide section below to use the automated setup script.

Use the script to set up ACRN automatically

We provide an acrn_quick_setup.sh script in the ACRN GitHub repo to quickly and automatically set up the SOS and UOS and generate a customized script for launching the UOS.

This script requires the Clear Linux version number you’d like to set up for the ACRN SOS and UOS. The version specified must be greater than or equal to the Clear Linux version currently installed on the NUC. You can see your current Clear Linux version with the command:

$ cat /etc/os-release

Note

In the following steps, we’re using Clear Linux version 30210. You should specify the Clear Linux version you want to use.

Here are the steps to install Clear Linux on your NUC, set up the SOS and UOS using the acrn_quick_setup.sh script, and launch the UOS:

  1. Installing Clear Linux and login system

  2. Open a terminal

  3. Download acrn_quick_setup.sh script to set up the SOS. (If you don’t need a proxy to get the script, you can just skip the export command.)

    $ export https_proxy=https://myproxy.mycompany.com:port
$ cd ~
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/master/doc/getting-started/acrn_quick_setup.sh

$ sudo sh acrn_quick_setup.sh -s 30210

    Note

    This script is using /dev/sda1 as default EFI System Partition ESP). If the ESP is different based on your hardware, you can specify it using -e option. For example, to set up the SOS on an NVMe SSD, you could specify:

    sudo sh acrn_quick_setup.sh -s 30210 -e /dev/nvme0n1p1

    Note

    If you don’t need to reboot automatically after setting up the SOS, you can specify the -d parameter (don’t reboot)

  4. After the system reboots, login as the clear user. You can verify the SOS booted successfully by checking the dmesg log:

    $ dmesg | grep ACRN
[    0.000000] Hypervisor detected: ACRN
[    1.220887] ACRNTrace: Initialized acrn trace module with 4 cpu
[    1.224401] ACRN HVLog: Initialized hvlog module with 4 cpu

  5. Continue by setting up a Guest OS using the acrn_quick_setup.sh script with the -u option (and the same Clear Linux version number):

    $ sudo sh acrn_quick_setup.sh -u 30210

clr-0d449d5327d64aee8a6b8a3484dcd880 login:

  7. Login as root (and specify the new password). You can verify you’re running in the UOS by checking the kernel release version or seeing if acrn devices are visible:

    # uname -r
4.19.34-45.iot-lts2018
# ls /dev/acrn*
ls: cannot access '/dev/acrn*': No such file or directory

    In the UOS there won’t be any /dev/acrn* devices. If you’re in the SOS, you’d see results such as these:

    # uname -r
4.19.55-67.iot-lts2018-sos
# ls /dev/acrn*
/dev/acrn_hvlog_cur_0   /dev/acrn_hvlog_cur_2  /dev/acrn_trace_0  /dev/acrn_trace_2  /dev/acrn_vhm
/dev/acrn_hvlog_cur_1   /dev/acrn_hvlog_cur_3  /dev/acrn_trace_1  /dev/acrn_trace_3

With that you’ve successfully set up Clear Linux at the Service and User OS and started up a UOS VM.

Manual setup ACRN guide

Instead of using the quick setup script, you can also set up ACRN, SOS, and UOS manually following these steps:

  1. After installing Clear Linux on the NUC, login as the clear user and open a terminal window.

  2. Clear Linux OS is set to automatically update itself. We recommend that you disable this feature to have more control over when updates happen. Use this command to disable the autoupdate feature:

    $ sudo swupd autoupdate --disable

    Note

    The Clear Linux OS installer will automatically check for updates and install the latest version available on your system. If you wish to use a specific version (such as 30210), you can achieve that after the installation has completed using sudo swupd verify --fix --picky -m 30210

  3. If you have an older version of Clear Linux OS already installed on your hardware, use this command to upgrade Clear Linux OS to version 30210 (or newer):

    $ sudo swupd update -m 30210     # or newer version

  4. Use the sudo swupd bundle-add command and add these Clear Linux OS bundles:

    $ sudo swupd bundle-add service-os kernel-iot-lts2018 systemd-networkd-autostart
    Table 2 Clear Linux OS bundles
    Bundle Description
    service-os Add the acrn hypervisor, acrn devicemodel, and Service OS kernel
    kernel-iot-lts2018 Run the Intel kernel “kernel-iot-lts2018” which is enterprise-style kernel with backports
    systemd-networkd-autostart Enable systemd-networkd as the default network manager

Add the ACRN hypervisor to the EFI Partition

In order to boot the ACRN SOS on the platform, you’ll need to add it to the EFI partition. Follow these steps:

  1. Mount the EFI partition and verify you have the following files:

    $ sudo ls -1 /boot/EFI/org.clearlinux
bootloaderx64.efi
kernel-org.clearlinux.native.4.20.11-702
kernel-org.clearlinux.iot-lts2018-sos.4.19.23-19
kernel-org.clearlinux.iot-lts2018.4.19.23-19
loaderx64.efi

    Note

    On Clear Linux OS, the EFI System Partition (e.g.: /dev/sda1) is mounted under /boot by default The Clear Linux project releases updates often, sometimes twice a day, so make note of the specific kernel versions (iot-lts2018 and *iot-lts2018-sos) listed on your system, as you will need them later.

    Note

    The EFI System Partition (ESP) may be different based on your hardware. It will typically be something like /dev/mmcblk0p1 on platforms that have an on-board eMMC or /dev/nvme0n1p1 if your system has a non-volatile storage media attached via a PCI Express (PCIe) bus (NVMe).

  2. Put the acrn.efi hypervisor application (included in the Clear Linux OS release) on the EFI partition with:

    $ sudo mkdir /boot/EFI/acrn
$ sudo cp /usr/lib/acrn/acrn.efi /boot/EFI/acrn/

  3. Configure the EFI firmware to boot the ACRN hypervisor by default

    The ACRN hypervisor (acrn.efi) is an EFI executable loaded directly by the platform EFI firmware. It then in turns loads the Service OS bootloader. Use the efibootmgr utility to configure the EFI firmware and add a new entry that loads the ACRN hypervisor.

    $ sudo efibootmgr -c -l "\EFI\acrn\acrn.efi" -d /dev/sda -p 1 -L "ACRN"

    Note

    Be aware that a Clear Linux OS update that includes a kernel upgrade will reset the boot option changes you just made. A Clear Linux OS update could happen automatically (if you have not disabled it as described above), if you later install a new bundle to your system, or simply if you decide to trigger an update manually. Whenever that happens, double-check the platform boot order using efibootmgr -v and modify it if needed.

    The ACRN hypervisor (acrn.efi) accepts two command-line parameters that tweak its behavior:

    1. bootloader=: this sets the EFI executable to be loaded once the hypervisor is up and running. This is typically the bootloader of the Service OS and the default value is to use the Clear Linux OS bootloader, i.e.: \EFI\org.clearlinux\bootloaderx64.efi.

    2. uart=: this tells the hypervisor where the serial port (UART) is found or whether it should be disabled. There are three forms for this parameter:

      1. uart=disabled: this disables the serial port completely
      2. uart=bdf@<BDF value>: this sets the PCI serial port based on its BDF. For example, use bdf@0:18.1 for a BDF of 0:18.1 ttyS1.
      3. uart=port@<port address>: this sets the serial port address

      Note

      uart=port@<port address> is required if you want to enable the serial console. You should run dmesg |grep ttyS0 to get port address from the output, and then add the uart parameter into the efibootmgr command.

    Here is a more complete example of how to configure the EFI firmware to load the ACRN hypervisor and set these parameters.

    $ sudo efibootmgr -c -l "\EFI\acrn\acrn.efi" -d /dev/sda -p 1 -L "ACRN NUC Hypervisor" \
      -u "bootloader=\EFI\org.clearlinux\bootloaderx64.efi uart=disabled"

    And also here is the example of how to enable a serial console for KBL NUC.

    $ sudo efibootmgr -c -l "\EFI\acrn\acrn.efi" -d /dev/sda -p 1 -L "ACRN NUC Hypervisor" \
      -u "bootloader=\EFI\org.clearlinux\bootloaderx64.efi uart=port@0x3f8"

  4. Create a boot entry for the ACRN Service OS by copying a provided acrn.conf and editing it to account for the kernel versions noted in a previous step.

    It must contain these settings:

    Setting Description
    title Text to show in the boot menu
    linux Linux kernel for the Service OS (*-sos)
    options Options to pass to the Service OS kernel (kernel parameters)

    A starter acrn.conf configuration file is included in the Clear Linux OS release and is also available in the acrn-hypervisor/hypervisor GitHub repo as acrn.conf as shown here:

    Code Block 1 efi-stub/clearlinux/acrn.conf
    title The ACRN Service OS
linux   /EFI/org.clearlinux/kernel-org.clearlinux.iot-lts2018-sos.4.19.13-1901141830
options console=tty0 console=ttyS0 root=PARTUUID=<UUID of rootfs partition> rw rootwait ignore_loglevel no_timer_check consoleblank=0 i915.nuclear_pageflip=1 i915.avail_planes_per_pipe=0x01010F i915.domain_plane_owners=0x011111110000 i915.enable_gvt=1 i915.enable_guc=0 hvlog=2M@0x1FE00000

    On the platform, copy the acrn.conf file to the EFI partition we mounted earlier:

    $ sudo cp /usr/share/acrn/samples/nuc/acrn.conf /boot/loader/entries/

    You will need to edit this file to adjust the kernel version (linux section), insert the PARTUUID of your /dev/sda3 partition (root=PARTUUID=<UUID of rootfs partition>) in the options section, and add the hugepagesz=1G hugepages=2 at end of the options section.

    Use blkid to find out what your /dev/sda3 PARTUUID value is. Here is a handy one-line command to do that:

    # sed -i "s/<UUID of rootfs partition>/`blkid -s PARTUUID -o value \
               /dev/sda3`/g" /boot/loader/entries/acrn.conf

    Note

    It is also possible to use the device name directly, e.g. root=/dev/sda3

  5. Add a timeout period for Systemd-Boot to wait, otherwise it will not present the boot menu and will always boot the base Clear Linux OS

    $ sudo clr-boot-manager set-timeout 20
$ sudo clr-boot-manager update

  6. Reboot and select “The ACRN Service OS” to boot, as shown below:

    Code Block 2 ACRN Service OS Boot Menu
    => The ACRN Service OS
Clear Linux OS for Intel Architecture (Clear-linux-iot-lts2018-4.19.23-19)

Clear Linux OS for Intel Architecture (Clear-linux-native.4.20.11-702)
EFI Default Loader
Reboot Into Firmware Interface

  7. After booting up the ACRN hypervisor, the Service OS will be launched automatically by default, and the Clear Linux OS desktop will be showing with user “clear”, (or you can login remotely with an “ssh” client). If there is any issue which makes the GNOME desktop doesn’t show successfully, then the system will go to shell console.

  8. From ssh client, login as user “clear” using the password you set previously when you installed Clear Linux OS.

  9. After rebooting the system, check that the ACRN hypervisor is running properly with:

$ dmesg | grep ACRN
[    0.000000] Hypervisor detected: ACRN
[    1.687128] ACRNTrace: acrn_trace_init, cpu_num 4
[    1.693129] ACRN HVLog: acrn_hvlog_init

If you see log information similar to this, the ACRN hypervisor is running properly and you can start deploying a User OS. If not, verify the EFI boot options, SOS kernel, and acrn.conf settings are correct (as described above).

ACRN Network Bridge

ACRN bridge has been setup as a part of systemd services for device communication. The default bridge creates acrn_br0 which is the bridge and tap0 as an initial setup. The files can be found in /usr/lib/systemd/network. No additional setup is needed since systemd-networkd is automatically enabled after a system restart.

Set up Reference UOS

  1. On your platform, download the pre-built reference Clear Linux OS UOS image version 30210 (or newer) into your (root) home directory:

    $ cd ~
$ mkdir uos
$ cd uos
$ curl https://download.clearlinux.org/releases/30210/clear/clear-30210-kvm.img.xz -o uos.img.xz

    Note

    In case you want to use or try out a newer version of Clear Linux OS as the UOS, you can download the latest from http://download.clearlinux.org/image. Make sure to adjust the steps described below accordingly (image file name and kernel modules version).

  2. Uncompress it:

    $ unxz uos.img.xz

  3. Deploy the UOS kernel modules to UOS virtual disk image (note: you’ll need to use the same iot-lts2018 image version number noted in step 1 above):

    $ sudo losetup -f -P --show uos.img
$ sudo mount /dev/loop0p3 /mnt
$ sudo cp -r /usr/lib/modules/"`readlink /usr/lib/kernel/default-iot-lts2018 | awk -F '2018.' '{print $2}'`.iot-lts2018" /mnt/lib/modules
$ sudo umount /mnt
$ sync

  4. Edit and Run the launch_uos.sh script to launch the UOS.

    A sample launch_uos.sh is included in the Clear Linux OS release, and is also available in the acrn-hypervisor/devicemodel GitHub repo (in the samples folder) as shown here:

    Code Block 3 devicemodel/samples/nuc/launch_uos.sh
