Getting Started Guide for ACRN hybrid mode
|
|
##########################################
|
|
|
|
ACRN hypervisor supports a hybrid scenario where the User VM (such as Zephyr
|
|
or Ubuntu) runs in a pre-launched VM or in a post-launched VM that is
|
|
launched by a Device model in the Service VM.

The Hybrid scenario on the Intel NUC
|
|
|
|
The following guidelines
|
|
describe how to set up the ACRN hypervisor hybrid scenario on the Intel NUC,
|
|
as shown in :numref:`hybrid_scenario_on_nuc`.

Prerequisites
|
|
*************
|
|
- Use the `Intel NUC Kit NUC7i7DNHE <https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/boards-kits/nuc/kits/nuc7i7dnhe.html>`_.
|
|
- Connect to the serial port as described in :ref:`Connecting to the serial port <connect_serial_port>`.
|
|
- Install Ubuntu 18.04 on your SATA device or on the NVME disk of your
|
|
Intel NUC.

Update Ubuntu GRUB
|
|
******************
|
|
|
|
Perform the following to update Ubuntu GRUB so it can boot the hypervisor and load the kernel image:
|
|
|
|
#. Append the following configuration in the ``/etc/grub.d/40_custom`` file:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|

multiboot2 /boot/acrn.bin
|
|
module2 /boot/zephyr.bin xxxxxx
|
|
module2 /boot/bzImage yyyyyy
|
|
module2 /boot/ACPI_VM0.bin ACPI_VM0
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note:: The module ``/boot/zephyr.bin`` is the VM0 (Zephyr) kernel file.
|
|
The param ``xxxxxx`` is VM0's kernel file tag and must exactly match the
|
|
``kernel_mod_tag`` of VM0, which is configured in the ``misc/vm_configs/scenarios/hybrid/vm_configurations.c``
|
|
file. The multiboot module ``/boot/bzImage`` is the Service VM kernel
|
|
file. The param ``yyyyyy`` is the bzImage tag and must exactly match the
|
|
``kernel_mod_tag`` of VM1 in the ``misc/vm_configs/scenarios/hybrid/vm_configurations.c``
|
|
file. The kernel command-line arguments used to boot the Service VM are
|
|
located in the header file ``misc/vm_configs/scenarios/hybrid/vm_configurations.h``
|
|
and are configured by the `SOS_VM_BOOTARGS` macro.
|
|
The module ``/boot/ACPI_VM0.bin`` is the binary of ACPI tables for pre-launched VM0 (Zephyr).
|
|
The parameter ``ACPI_VM0`` is VM0's ACPI tag and should not be modified.
|
|
|
|
#. Modify the ``/etc/default/grub`` file as follows to make the GRUB menu
|
|
visible when booting:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
GRUB_DEFAULT=ACRN_Hybrid
|
|
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
|
|
# GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
|
|
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=false
|
|
|
|
#. Update GRUB::
|
|
|
|
$ sudo update-grub
|
|
|
|
#. Reboot the Intel NUC. Select the **ACRN hypervisor Hybrid Scenario** entry to boot
|
|
the ACRN hypervisor on the Intel NUC's display. The GRUB loader will boot the
|
|
hypervisor, and the hypervisor will start the VMs automatically.

|
Hybrid Scenario Startup Check
|
|
*****************************
|
|
#. Use these steps to verify that the hypervisor is properly running:
|
|
|
|
a. Log in to the ACRN hypervisor shell from the serial console.
|
|
#. Use the vm_list command to verify that the pre-launched VM and Service VM are launched successfully.
|
|
|
|
#. Use these steps to verify all VMs are running properly:
|
|
|
|
a. Use the ``vm_console 0`` to switch to VM0 (Zephyr) console. It will display ``Hello world! acrn``.
|
|
#. Enter :kbd:`Ctrl` + :kbd:`Space` to return to the ACRN hypervisor shell.
|
|
#. Use the ``vm_console 1`` command to switch to the VM1 (Service VM) console.
|
|
#. Verify that the VM1's Service VM can boot and you can log in.
|
|
#. ssh to VM1 and launch the post-launched VM2 using the ACRN device model launch script.
|
|
#. Go to the Service VM console, and enter :kbd:`Ctrl` + :kbd:`Space` to return to the ACRN hypervisor shell.
|
|
#. Use the ``vm_console 2`` command to switch to the VM2 (User VM) console.
|
|
#. Verify that VM2 can boot and you can log in.
|
|
|
