Re: Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)

Hello Kuzu,

After some retesting, I realized that with the CURRENT setup (your original instructions), I can:

  1.  Ping between AGL <-> Ubuntu
     *   Ping from AGL to Ubuntu, ping from Ubuntu to AGL.
  2.  Transfer files between them (scp root@192.168.1.20:/home/root/testfile.txt<mailto:root@192.168.1.20:/home/root/testfile.txt>)
     *   Testfile.txt being created on AGL
     *   scp being run from hosting Ubuntu
  3.  Run nslookup from either Ubuntu and AGL
     *   Meaning AGL can indeed connect to the intranet just fine
  4.  Reboot the Ubuntu VM and not lose connectivity
     *   I’ve tried (and failed) to create a snapshot image of my Ubuntu instance (keep getting “Client.VolumeNotAvailable: Amazon EC2 is taking too long to create the snapshots. You might've reached the limit on the number of concurrent snapshots you can create. Wait a few minutes, and then retry your request” which I’m not sure if it’s due to this being bare metal instance), which causes the VM to reboot. This has happened like 4 times already, yet each time the VM comes back on and I can reconnect just fine, so seems this setup will not cause us to lose connectivity upon rebooting.
     *   I do not of course keep AGL powered on the entire time: I bring it up, do my testing, and power it off right away.

Here, let me show you:

>From that, does anything look off/wrong?

I ask because in theory I thought I would not be able to connect to intranet from AGL (no complaints really, just saying if it’s working due to something I’m missing I would like to know what that is).

Sincerely,

Subject: Re:  Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)
Hello Alex,

I am glad to hear that you were able to ping between ubuntu and agl.

For additional questions, please see below.

>> 1. Does this happen to you (losing network connectivity on host Ubuntu)?
    I did not experience any network connectivity loss on ubuntu in my local environment, but it could happen in some envieonment.
    If you know how to solve this, you could script the solution and use a command such as "nohup" to complete the setup even if the ssh connection is broken.

>> 2. Is there any way to do this (the network bridge) but by allowing AGL to also connect to Internet WAN?
    There are two posible methods that come to mind quickly.
    Method 1: Set the bridge's network to be the same as the host's network.
      a. Set the bridge's IP and Ubuntu's network interface (eno1) to the same value (althouht set to a different value for host only network).
      b. Set the AGL network interface (enp0s3) to the IP on the ubuntu network. (In my environment this was already assigned at VM startup).
    This allows AGL to communicate with the internet while maintaining communication with Ubuntu.
    However, I have succeeded with this method locally, but not on AWS.
   Method 2: Configure two interfaces at QEMU start-up: user mode network and host only mode
      a. Set the network options at QEMU start-up as follows.
       -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net-user,mac=52:54:00:12:10:20 -netdev user,id=net-user -netdev bridge,br=br-tmp,id=net-bridge -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net-bridge,mac=52:54:00:12:71:32
      b. bridge side (interface with no inet configured. Probably enp0s4) IP.
    Then you can use the bridge side for communication from Ubuntu to AGL and the NAT side for communication from AGL to the Internet.

>> 3. Do you think this setup would work if the host Ubuntu machine is itself a VM?
    First of all, when launching a VM on a VM environment, a nested VM must be supported.
    And, it is not clear to me whether the previous network settings will work well when using a nested VM.
    As far as Ubuntu instances on AWS bare metal servers rather than nested VMs are concerned, I was able to build a host only network when I tried it in my environment.
    However, after a few days, the connection to the Ubuntu instance was lost and restarting the instance did not fix it, so the image had to be rolled back.
    The cause is unknown and could be due to other tasks, but there is  also possibility that the network configuration is the cause.
    I am not sure if this is correct as I am not familiar with networks, but my understanding is that manual configuration using the ip command etc. is reset by turning the PC back on (or in the case of AWS, by stopping the instance and starting it again).
    Also, I am aware that the settings using nmcli etc. will continue even if the PC is restarted, so I am not using them at the moment.

Kuzu,

Subject: Re:  Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)

Hello Kuzu,

I was able to get it to work just like you!

  *   Removed the ip=dhcp as instructed
  *   My mistake was using the same IP on AGL and on the bridge (somehow didn’t notice that you used 192.168.1.10 for bridge and 192.168.1.20 for AGL, I was using the same one, no wonder it was not working)
  *   Just like you indicate, I can ping from AGL->Ubuntu and from Ubuntu->AGL, but I cannot connect to Internet WAN from AGL once the bridge is set up (before the bridge I could).

Can’t thank you enough for the patience and help!

Now, if I may push my luck here:

  1.  I did notice that I lose network connectivity on the host (Ubuntu) shortly after setting up the bridge (right around the time I’m adding the route to AGL), and to get it back I must do this on Ubuntu:
     *   sudo ip link set dev br-tmp down
     *   sudo service network-manager restart
     *   After that I have network connectivity restored and can bring up the connection and connect (from Ubuntu) to both AGL and Internet WAN. Does this happen to you (losing network connectivity on host Ubuntu)?
  2.  Is there any way to do this (the network bridge) but by allowing AGL to also connect to Internet WAN?
  3.  Do you think this setup would work if the host Ubuntu machine is itself a VM?
     *   I fear that the loss of network connectivity detailed above would indeed cause me to lose my access to the VM forever, since unlike my local Ubuntu which I can keep working on without network connectivity, I cannot do the same on an AWS hosted VM, and if I indeed need to bring down the bridge and restart network manager, a reboot from the AWS console may not restore connectivity (that would reset network manager, but not bring down the bridge connection)

Sincerely,

Alex Silva

Subject: RE:  Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)
Hello Alex,

>From the results of the run you sent us, it appears that the IP of the bridge and the IP of the AGL guest are the same.
In this case, the ubuntu host tries to communicate with the bridge instead of the AGL guest.
For this reason, please change the IP of the AGL guest and try to communicate with it.

For your information, the results of my run are shown below.

One change to the command is to remove the option “ip=dhcp”.
If “ip=dhcp” is present, the console cannot be operated until the timeout is reached.
(The console can still be operated with the option if you wait long enough for the timeout).

The environment I have created is called a 'host only network'.
This means that AGL can communicate with the host, but not directly with the Internet on the WAN side.

Subject: Re:  Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)

Hey Kuzu,

Failed to add: I tried moving files between AGL and Ubuntu as you mentioned, had “connection refused”, so definitely it’s not pinging/connecting to AGL, really hope the error is in how I’m running qemu…

Without bridge:

Subject: Re:  Question about AGL hosted on QEMU on an Ubuntu VM (nested virtualization)
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

  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?

Could it be that I’m somehow specifying the parameters incorrectly?

Without bridge:

With bridge (had to use sudo or bridge would fail, and would no longer accept hostfwd argument):

I do appreciate your help, really do (and yeah, I’ll try to attend tomorrow’s meeting).

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,
Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd.

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”):

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).

Sincerely,

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.

Best Regards,
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).

Sincerely,

Alex Silva

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.

Kuzu

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

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,

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

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).

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.
