RISC-V cross-builder (RISC-V kselftest HOWTO)

riscv-cross-builder contains Dockerfiles to generate a container image that is:

An x86-64 RISC-V cross-compiler environment suitable to build a RISC-V kernel image, the corresponding kselftest.
A RISC-V rootfs, that shares the same libraries as the cross-compiler environment. This rootfs is used to execute the kselftest.

Create the Docker container:

docker build -f Dockerfile.ubuntu . -t ubuntu-builder

You now have a container named "ubuntu-builder".

Run the container, pointing to your Linux kernel source tree, e.g. /src/linux:

docker run --tty --interactive --volume "/src/linux":/workspace ubuntu-builder:latest /bin/bash

In the container, build the kernel, and the kselftest using:

build-selftest

When the build is complete, the following artifacts reside in /src/linux:

build contains the kernel and the modules
lunar.tar the rootfs with the kselfself bundled
kbuild contains the kernel build intermediaries

Create an image:

sudo create_image.sh rv-linux.img ./build ./lunar.tar

The image is created. Boot the image, e.g.:

sudo qemu-system-riscv64 \
    -bios opensbi/build/platform/generic/firmware/fw_dynamic.bin \
    -nographic \
    -monitor telnet:127.0.0.1:55555,server,nowait \
    -machine virt \
    -smp 4 \
    -object rng-random,filename=/dev/urandom,id=rng0 \
    -device virtio-rng-device,rng=rng0 \
    -append "root=/dev/vda2 rw earlycon console=tty0 console=ttyS0 loglevel=8 panic=-1 oops=panic sysctl.vm.panic_on_oom=1" \
    -drive if=none,file=./rv-linux.img,format=raw,id=hd0 \
    -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=hd0 \
    -chardev stdio,id=char0,mux=on,signal=off,logfile=boot.log \
    -serial chardev:char0 \
    -kernel ./build/vmlinuz-6.4.0 \
    -netdev user,id=net0,host=10.0.2.10,hostfwd=tcp::10022-:22 \
    -device virtio-net-device,netdev=net0 \
    -m 16G \
    -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=16G \
    -numa node,nodeid=0,memdev=mem0

In the virtual machine, when it's logged in:

cd
mkdir -p src/kselftest
cd src/kselftest
tar xvf /kselftest.tar
for i in $(./run_kselftest.sh -l|awk -F: '{print $1}' |uniq |egrep -v 'bpf|lkdtm|net') net bpf; do echo "TEST $i"; ./run_kselftest.sh -o 9000 -c $i ; done

Note that the for-state simply runs all the components, but runs net and bpf last, since they take the longest.

Another option, is to skip generating the image, and instead use 9p.

Just unpack the tar:

mkdir rootfs; cd rootfs; sudo tar --extract --xattrs --xattrs-include='*' -f path/to/lunar.tar

Boot it using the rootfs:

sudo qemu-system-riscv64 \
  -nographic \
  -machine virt \
  -smp 4 \
  -m 16G \
  -object rng-random,filename=/dev/urandom,id=rng0 \
  -device virtio-rng-device,rng=rng0 \
  -fsdev local,id=root,path=/path/to/rootfs/lunar/,security_model=none \
  -device virtio-9p-pci,fsdev=root,mount_tag=/dev/root \
  -append \"root=/dev/root rw rootfstype=9p rootflags=version=9p2000.L,trans=virtio,cache=mmap,access=any security=none\" \ "
  -serial mon:stdio \
  -kernel /path to kernel/Image \
  -netdev user,id=net0,host=10.0.2.10,hostfwd=tcp::10022-:22 \
  -device virtio-net-device,netdev=net0

When your machine is booted and logged in:

mkdir selftest
cd selftest
tar xvf /kselftest.tar

Finally, run the tests:

./run_kselftest.sh

./run_kselftest.sh -c bpf
