Hello Kuzu,
No worries, you had indeed told m about how to start QEMU, I’m thinking maybe that’s part of the problem.
Look, I tried your instructions again on local Ubuntu (not VM), and this is what I got:
1. I was able to set up the bridge (specifying IP 192.168.1.10) without losing connectivity AFTER removing the previous one (virbr0) I had:
~/agl-demo$ sudo ip link add name agl-bridge type bridge
~/agl-demo$ sudo ip link set dev agl-bridge up
~/agl-demo$ sleep 1
~/agl-demo$ sudo ip addr add 192.168.1.10/24 dev agl-bridge
~/agl-demo$ sudo ip link show

1. I can ping the IP address of the bridge just fine, but this happens with QEMU powered on or off as well (and even with QEMU launched without specifying the bridge), so how can I know I’m actually reaching AGL?

Subject: RE: Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)
Hello Alex,
I am so sorry to forgot to tell you to change the startup options for QEMU.
In order to use the created bridge with QEMU, I configured the network options as follows:
-netdev bridge,br=br-tmp,id=net0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net0
After creating br-tmp according to the previously sent instructions, please change the QEMU network settings to the above and try again.
This should also work on a local workstation, so it may be a good idea to try it out before the cloud.
What about discussing directly in this week AGL Virtualization Expert Group meeting with following details.
- Location: Zoom (https://zoom.us/j/855006400?pwd=OER2bGVaVm91VjhKYm83Rk1hZTg2dz09)
- Time: 2022/7/6 12:00 (UTC)
Looking forward to seeing you in the Virt-EG!
Best Regard,
Kuzu,

Subject: Re: Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)
Hello Kuzu,
I followed these steps on my Ubuntu workstation (local machine, not a VM), and had the problem of every time I started QEMU, the ethernet connection would be lost and I had to delete the new bridge to recover (even restarting network manager would be of no use otherwise).
Why I tried it first on a local workstation: in case the network connection became affected, and it did.
I had to follow a different guide to get the bridge working (works perfectly with a local Ubuntu workstation).
Works there just fine:

I can indeed ping “192.168.122.64” from Ubuntu just fine.
However, I cannot do the same in my needed setup: where host Ubuntu is an AWS hosted VM itself.
This is what the bridge looks like in my local Ubuntu (my bridge is “virbr0”):
al666940@al666940-To-be-filled-by-O-E-M:~/agl-demo$ sudo nmcli connection show
NAME UUID TYPE DEVICE
Wired connection 1 6d8112e2-024f-3370-8ec5-4ea54021f108 ethernet enp1s0
virbr0 2658fd55-b813-4a02-9cd8-c769d68d047b bridge virbr0
And this is what it looks like on my AWS hosted VM Ubuntu:
alexsil@ip-172-31-36-149:~$ sudo nmcli connection show
[sudo] password for alexsil:
NAME UUID TYPE DEVICE
agl-bridge 343bf396-720d-42b4-a655-df5313980cec bridge --
bridge-agl-bridge 7e945a36-32ef-4676-a4fc-519468f04861 ethernet --
And of course, if I try to start it:
alexsil@ip-172-31-36-149:~$ sudo nmcli conn up agl-bridge
Error: Connection activation failed: Activation failed because the device is unmanaged
I think that’s the main roadblock.
I tried creating the interface using /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml, but after applying it the networking failed and indeed I lost connectivity forever (have to recreate the whole thing again).

Alex Silva

Subject: RE: Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)
Hello Alex,
I could ping AGL VM from host Ubuntu usnig bridge.
You can reproduce the connection as follow:
1. Check the ubuntu host IP (in my environment, 10.0.0.201).
2. Configure a bridge on the ubuntu host and assign a different network than the above IP.
# ip link add name br-tmp type bridge
# ip link set dev br-tmp up
# sleep 1
# ip addr add 192.168.1.10/24 dev br-tmp
# ip link show br-tmp
3. Allow qemu to use br-tmp.
# echo "allow br-tmp" >> /etc/qemu/bridge.conf
4. Start an AGL VM with the following options instead of "user" network options:
-netdev bridge,br=br-tmp,id=net0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net0
5. In the AGL VM, configure the ip address and default gateway as follows:
# ifconfig enp0s2 192.168.1.20 netmask 255.255.255.0
# ip route add default via 192.168.1.10 dev enp0s2
# route -n
6. You can now ping the AGL guest from the Ubuntu host.
# ping 192.168.1.20
# spc root@192.168.1.20:/xxxx<mailto:root@192.168.1.20:/xxxx> yyy
Please check if you can ping using the above way.

Kuzu

Hello Kuzu,
I managed to share files using option 1, thanks a whole bunch!
As for making the AGL reachable (pingable) to other VM’s, that is indeed very important. Any chance you can share how the network bridge was set up? I’ll run with that and figure how if at all can be implemented on AS VM’s (hey, if AGL can be set up on AWS hosetd VM, then we can surely enable a bridge on that as well).

Subject: RE: Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)
Hello Alex,
Thank you for asking.
If you want to copy files between an AGL VM and an ubuntu host, you have two options.
- Start AGL VM without the snapshot option and copy files from the console of AGL VM using scp.
- Rewrite ext4 file using loop device as following:
$ lodev=$(losetup -f)
$ sudo losetup $lodev agl-demo-polatform-crosssdk-qemuarm64.ext4
$ sudo mount $lodev /mnt
$ cp filename /mnt/target_location
$ sudo umount /mnt
$ sudo losetup -d $lodev
About how to ping the AGL VM from other AWS hosted VM's, I continue to check that.
Currently, I assume that the qemu networking configuration option are not suitable for that purpose.
Specifying "user" in the net option sets up a NAT network in the QEMU network system.
Therefore, ping from the AGL VM to the host OS is possible, but not in the reverse direction.
A possible one way to ping the AGL VM from the host OS is to use a bridge.
I have confirmed that pinging from the host OS to the AGL VM can be done using bridge on local Raspberry Pi, but this has not been confirmed so far on AWS.
Also in case of not reponsing your email in time, let me CC the community group to see if any other member can help you also.

Subject: Re: Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)
Hello Jerry,
Another question that I have is, well, how exactly do you enable file sharing between AGL and the hosting computer?
I ask because to do that, as far as I know, using QEMU and KVM, one has to create a VM first.
And since AGL doesn’t seem to come with an ISO, but a prebuilt image and kernel (for QEMU), can’t exactly create (or start) a VM out of those.
https://download.automotivelinux.org/AGL/snapshots/master/latest/qemux86-64/deploy/images/qemux86-64/agl-demo-platform-crosssdk-qemux86-64.ext4.xz (which when unpacked is ext4)
https://download.automotivelinux.org/AGL/snapshots/master/latest/qemux86-64/deploy/images/qemux86-64/bzImage
Thus, can’t seem to figure how to enable file sharing with a prebuilt image.
Sincerely,
Alex Silva

Subject: Re: Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)
Hello Jerry,
Thanks for the reply!
1. I use a bare-metal instance type (deployed on a dedicated host), running Ubuntu server 22.04, to host AGL via QEMU
* For x86: i3.metal (ubuntu/images/hvm-ssd/ubuntu-jammy-22.04-amd64-server-20220420)
* For 64-bit ARM: r6g.metal (ubuntu/images/hvm-ssd/ubuntu-jammy-22.04-arm64-server-20220420)
2. The VM hosting AGL via QEMU (let’s call it “QEMU VM”) can ping other VM’s and other VM’s can ping this VM just fine
* Communication between AGKL hosting VM and other VM’s works both ways
3. The AGL instance itself can ping other VM’s just fine, BUT other VM’s cannot ping the AGL instance itself
* Communication works only one way (Ping from AGL instance to other cloud instance: OK)
I fear I may have to do some complex routing or network bridge setup, due to the private IP I see when running ifconfig within AGL:

Hi Alex,
CC: @KUZU KAZUKI (葛生 一樹)<mailto:kuzu.kazuki@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Nice to meeting you. Thanks for using virtual AGL.
Let me confirm several things.
* Which AWS server type are you using? Graviton or Non-graviton? Baremetal or normal EC2?
* Do you mean the communication is only in single direction?
* Ping from AGL instance to other cloud instance: OK
* Ping from other cloud instance to AGL instance: NOK
Sincerely,
Jerry

Subject: Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)
Hello Jerry,
I’m Alex Silva, working with Cisco, and was trying to use AGL (hosted on an Ubuntu VM in AWS, via QEMU).
Long story short: I need to be able to ping (reach) the AGL instance from other AWS hosted VM’s.
I followed the instructions here to deploy AGL Linux on Ubuntu via QEMU
https://docs.automotivelinux.org/en/master/#0_Getting_Started/1_Quickstart/Using_Ready_Made_Images/#_top
And I managed to have AGL up and running on both AMD and ARM architectures.
And AGL instance seems to work and connect to other VM’s just fine (it can ping the other Ubuntu VM’s o the network like for example “54.213.111.78”, NSLOOKUP works, WGET works, etc), I can even see the GUI if I use Vinagre (on gnome desktop).

4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.626/0.669/0.736 ms
HOWEVER, I can’t seem to reach the AGL instance (ping it’s IP, I can only see it’s private one which is “10.0.2.15”) from anywhere, not even from the VM hosting it.
So I’m guessing I’m missing something rather obvious here (obvious for you guys I hope) in my setup.
I was wondering if I could ask you about it (I’m guessing you guys must be able to connect to your AGL running instances somehow).
The Confluence page directs inquiries to you, hence my email asking about this.
