# Runtime Handler Quickstart (Shim V2) This document describes how to install and run `containerd-shim-runsc-v1` using the containerd runtime handler support. This requires containerd 1.2 or later. ## Requirements - **runsc**: See the [gVisor documentation](https://github.com/google/gvisor) for information on how to install runsc. - **containerd**: See the [containerd website](https://containerd.io/) for information on how to install containerd. ## Install ### Install containerd-shim-runsc-v1 1. Build and install `containerd-shim-runsc-v1`. <!-- TODO: Use a release once we have one available. --> [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/shim-install.sh shell /{ # Step 1\(dev\)/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 1(dev): Build and install gvisor-containerd-shim and containerd-shim-runsc-v1 make sudo make install } ``` ### Configure containerd 1. Update `/etc/containerd/config.toml`. Make sure `containerd-shim-runsc-v1` is in `${PATH}`. [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/runtime-handler-shim-v2/install.sh shell /{ # Step 1/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 1: Create containerd config.toml cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/containerd/config.toml disabled_plugins = ["restart"] [plugins.linux] shim_debug = true [plugins.cri.containerd.runtimes.runsc] runtime_type = "io.containerd.runsc.v1" EOF } ``` 1. Restart `containerd` ```shell sudo systemctl restart containerd ``` ## Usage You can run containers in gVisor via containerd's CRI. ### Install crictl 1. Download and install the crictl binary: [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/crictl-install.sh shell /{ # Step 1/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 1: Download crictl wget https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cri-tools/releases/download/v1.13.0/crictl-v1.13.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz tar xf crictl-v1.13.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz sudo mv crictl /usr/local/bin } ``` 1. Write the crictl configuration file [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/crictl-install.sh shell /{ # Step 2/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 2: Configure crictl cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/crictl.yaml runtime-endpoint: unix:///run/containerd/containerd.sock EOF } ``` ### Create the nginx Sandbox in gVisor 1. Pull the nginx image [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/runtime-handler/usage.sh shell /{ # Step 1/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 1: Pull the nginx image sudo crictl pull nginx } ``` 1. Create the sandbox creation request [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/runtime-handler/usage.sh shell /{ # Step 2/ /^EOF\n}/) ```shell { # Step 2: Create sandbox.json cat <<EOF | tee sandbox.json { "metadata": { "name": "nginx-sandbox", "namespace": "default", "attempt": 1, "uid": "hdishd83djaidwnduwk28bcsb" }, "linux": { }, "log_directory": "/tmp" } EOF } ``` 1. Create the pod in gVisor [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/runtime-handler/usage.sh shell /{ # Step 3/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 3: Create the sandbox SANDBOX_ID=$(sudo crictl runp --runtime runsc sandbox.json) } ``` ### Run the nginx Container in the Sandbox 1. Create the nginx container creation request [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/run-container.sh shell /{ # Step 1/ /^EOF\n}/) ```shell { # Step 1: Create nginx container config cat <<EOF | tee container.json { "metadata": { "name": "nginx" }, "image":{ "image": "nginx" }, "log_path":"nginx.0.log", "linux": { } } EOF } ``` 1. Create the nginx container [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/run-container.sh shell /{ # Step 2/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 2: Create nginx container CONTAINER_ID=$(sudo crictl create ${SANDBOX_ID} container.json sandbox.json) } ``` 1. Start the nginx container [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/run-container.sh shell /{ # Step 3/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 3: Start nginx container sudo crictl start ${CONTAINER_ID} } ``` ### Validate the container 1. Inspect the created pod [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/validate.sh shell /{ # Step 1/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 1: Inspect the pod sudo crictl inspectp ${SANDBOX_ID} } ``` 1. Inspect the nginx container [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/validate.sh shell /{ # Step 2/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 2: Inspect the container sudo crictl inspect ${CONTAINER_ID} } ``` 1. Verify that nginx is running in gVisor [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/validate.sh shell /{ # Step 3/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 3: Check dmesg sudo crictl exec ${CONTAINER_ID} dmesg | grep -i gvisor } ``` ### Set up the Kubernetes Runtime Class 1. Install the Runtime Class for gVisor [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/runtimeclass-install.sh shell /{ # Step 1/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 1: Install a RuntimeClass cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f - apiVersion: node.k8s.io/v1beta1 kind: RuntimeClass metadata: name: gvisor handler: runsc EOF } ``` 1. Create a Pod with the gVisor Runtime Class [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/runtimeclass-install.sh shell /{ # Step 2/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 2: Create a pod cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f - apiVersion: v1 kind: Pod metadata: name: nginx-gvisor spec: runtimeClassName: gvisor containers: - name: nginx image: nginx EOF } ``` 1. Verify that the Pod is running [embedmd]:# (../test/e2e/runtimeclass-install.sh shell /{ # Step 3/ /^}/) ```shell { # Step 3: Get the pod kubectl get pod nginx-gvisor -o wide } ```
