Launch Windows as the Guest VM on ACRN
######################################
This tutorial describes how to launch Windows as a Guest (WaaG) VM on the
ACRN hypervisor.
ACRN Service VM Setup
*********************
Follow the steps in this :ref:`gsg` to set up ACRN
based on Ubuntu and launch the Service VM.
Setup for Using Windows as the Guest VM
***************************************
In the following steps, you'll first create a Windows image
in the Service VM, and then launch that image as a Guest VM.
Verified Version
================
* Windows 10 Version:
- Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC Evaluation
* Windows graphics driver:
- igfx_win10_100.9030.zip
.. note::
WHL needs the following BIOS setting:
set **DVMT Pre-Allocated** to **64MB** and set **PM Support**
to **Enabled**.
Create a Windows 10 Image in the Service VM
===========================================
Create a Windows 10 image to install Windows 10 onto a virtual disk.
Download Win10 Image and Drivers
--------------------------------
#. Download `MediaCreationTool20H2.exe <https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows10>`_.
- Run this file and select **Create installation media(USB flash drive, DVD, or ISO file) for another PC**;
Then click **ISO file** to create ``Windows10.iso``.
#. Download the `Oracle Windows driver <https://edelivery.oracle.com/osdc/faces/SoftwareDelivery>`_.
- Sign in. If you do not have an Oracle account, register for one.
- Select **Download Package**. Key in **Oracle Linux 7.6** and click
**Search**.
- Click **DLP: Oracle Linux 7.6** to add to your Cart.
- Click **Checkout**, which is located at the top-right corner.
- Under **Platforms/Language**, select **x86 64-bit**. Click **Continue**.
- Check **I accept the terms in the license agreement**. Click **Continue**.
- From the list, right check the item labeled **Oracle VirtIO Drivers
Version for Microsoft Windows 1.1.x, yy MB**, and then **Save link as
...**. Currently, it is named ``V982789-01.zip``.
- Click **Download**. When the download is complete, unzip the file. You
will see an ISO named ``winvirtio.iso``.
Create a Raw Disk
-----------------
Run these commands on the Service VM::
$ sudo apt-get install qemu-utils
$ mkdir /home/acrn/work
$ cd /home/acrn/work
$ qemu-img create -f raw win10-ltsc.img 30G
Prepare the Script to Create an Image
-------------------------------------
#. Refer :ref:`gpu-passthrough` to enable GVT-d GOP feature; then copy above .iso files and the built OVMF.fd to /home/acrn/work
#. Prepare WaaG install script, a **/home/acrn/work/install_win.sh** file should be created with the following content.
.. code-block:: bash
#!/bin/bash
function launch_win()
{
vm_name=win_vm$1
#check if the vm is running or not
vm_ps=$(pgrep -a -f acrn-dm)
result=$(echo $vm_ps | grep "${vm_name}")
if [[ "$result" != "" ]]; then
echo "$vm_name is running, can't create twice!"
exit
fi
echo "8086 9ded" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/new_id
echo "0000:00:14.0" > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:14.0/driver/unbind
echo "0000:00:14.0" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/bind
echo "8086 3ea0" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/new_id
echo "0000:00:02.0" > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:02.0/driver/unbind
echo "0000:00:02.0" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/bind

echo cpu$idx online=$online
if [ "$online" = "1" ]; then
echo 0 > $i/online

sleep 1
echo 0 > $i/online

done
echo $idx > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/acrn_hsm/remove_cpu

Install Windows 10 by GVT-d
---------------------------
#. Run **install_win.sh**
.. code-block:: bash
cd /home/acrn/work/
sudo chmod +x install_win.sh
sudo ./install_win.sh
When you see the UEFI shell, input **exit**.
#. Select **Boot Manager** and boot from Win10 ISO.
#. When the display reads **Press any key to boot from CD or DVD** on the
monitor, press any key in the terminal on the **Host** side.

#. Configure your system when Windows completes its restart cycle.
.. figure:: images/windows_install_9.png
:align: center
#. Verify that the Windows desktop displays after the Windows installation is complete.

#. Download the `Intel DCH Graphics Driver
<https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/30066?v=t>`__ in
Windows and install in safe mode.
Version 27.20.100.9030 was verified on WHL. You should use the same version as the one in native Windows 10 on your board.
Boot Windows on ACRN With a Default Configuration
=================================================
#. Prepare WaaG launch script::
cp /home/acrn/work/install_win.sh /home/acrn/work/launch_win.sh
Remove following lines in launch_win.sh
.. code-block:: bash
-s 5,ahci,cd:/home/acrn/work/Windows10.iso \
-s 6,ahci,cd:/home/acrn/work/winvirtio.iso \
#. Launch WaaG
.. code-block:: bash
cd /home/acrn/work/
sudo ./launch_win.sh
The WaaG desktop displays on the monitor.

Explanation for acrn-dm Popular Command Lines
*********************************************
.. note:: Use these acrn-dm command line entries according to your
real requirements.
* ``-s 2,passthru,0/2/0``:
This is GVT-d to passthrough the VGA controller to Windows.
You may need to change 0/2/0 to match the bdf of the VGA controller on your platform.
* ``-s 8,virtio-net,tap0``:
This is for the network virtualization.
* ``-s 3,virtio-input,/dev/input/event4``:
This is to passthrough the mouse/keyboard to Windows via virtio.
Change ``event4`` accordingly. Use the following command to check
the event node on your Service VM::
<To get the input event of mouse>
# cat /proc/bus/input/devices | grep mouse
* ``-s 5,ahci,cd:/home/acrn/work/Windows10.iso``:
This is the IOS image used to install Windows 10. It appears as a CD-ROM
device. Make sure that it points to your win10 ISO path.
* ``-s 6,ahci,cd:/home/acrn/work/winvirtio.iso``:
This is CD-ROM device to install the virtio Windows driver. Make sure it points to your VirtIO ISO path.
* ``-s 7,passthru,0/14/0,d3hot_reset``:
This is to passthrough the USB controller to Windows;d3hot_reset is needed for WaaG reboot when USB controller is passthroughed to Windows.
You may need to change ``0/14/0`` to match the BDF of the USB controller on
your platform.
* ``--ovmf /home/acrn/work/OVMF.fd``:
Make sure it points to your OVMF binary path.
* ``--windows``:
Specify this to use the Windows ORACLE virtio device when enabling secure boot in Windows; otherwise, the REDHAT virtio device will be used.
Secure Boot Enabling
********************
Refer to the steps in :ref:`How-to-enable-secure-boot-for-windows` for
secure boot enabling.
Activate Windows 10
********************
If you use a trial version of Windows 10, you might find that some
apps and features do not work or that Windows 10 automatically gets shut
down by the Windows licensing monitoring service. To avoid these issues,
obtain a licensed version of Windows.
For Windows 10 activation steps, refer to
`Activate Windows 10 <https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12440/windows-10-activate>`__.
