This is the initial version of the runX OCI wrapper to allow Xen based virtual
machines to be launched and managed as containers via an OCI interface.
In this first version, runx consists of the following components:
- runX binary/wrapper (/usr/bin/)
- state control wrappers (/usr/share/runX)
- runx kernel
- initrd
Once built and installed these allow the launching of Xen virtual machines
in an OCI compliant manner.
Dependencies of this recipe include:
- kernel: must be a specific version, currently 4.15. This is done as
a nested build and not as a multiconfig (by design).
- static target busybox: used for the initrd
- initrd: constructed from the kernel + busybox
The configuration of the system to build the dependencies in the right
mode for use in runX is controlled via the DISTRO_FEATURE "vmsep". If
this feature is missing, and runx is bitbaked, an error is thrown.
Installing the "runx" package to a rootfs will install all the required
support components (and dependencies).

meta-virtualization
This layer provides support for building Xen, KVM, Libvirt, and associated packages necessary for constructing OE-based virtualized solutions.
The bbappend files for some recipes (e.g. linux-yocto) in this layer need to have 'virtualization' in DISTRO_FEATURES to have effect. To enable them, add in configuration file the following line.
DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " virtualization"
If meta-virtualization is included, but virtualization is not enabled as a distro feature a warning is printed at parse time:
You have included the meta-virtualization layer, but
'virtualization' has not been enabled in your DISTRO_FEATURES. Some bbappend files
may not take effect. See the meta-virtualization README for details on enabling
virtualization support.
If you know what you are doing, this warning can be disabled by setting the following variable in your configuration:
SKIP_META_VIRT_SANITY_CHECK = 1
Depending on your use case, there are other distro features in meta-virtualization that may also be enabled:
- xen: enables xen functionality in various packages (kernel, libvirt, etc)
- kvm: enables KVM configurations in the kernel and autoloads modules
- aufs: enables aufs support in docker and linux-yocto
- x11: enable xen and libvirt functionality related to x11
- selinux: enables functionality in libvirt and lxc
- systemd: enable systemd services and unit files (for recipes for support)
- sysvinit: enable sysvinit scripts (for recipes with support)
