kata-irc-bot<amkucherenko> Hello everyone! Anybody tried to use kata with firecracker? Kernel and rootfs images provided with GitHub distro works with qemu, but gave an error when I changing hypervisor to firecracker.07:50

kata-irc-bot<anastassios.nanos> Hi Alexander! we’ve been using kata with firecracker with the provided kernel & rootfs. Can you please share a bit more details about your setup? eg. which release are you using?08:22
kata-irc-bot<anastassios.nanos> additionally, you’ll have to setup devicemapper for kata to work with firecracker08:23
kata-irc-bot<anastassios.nanos> if you can share some more details on how you’re trying to set it up, we can definitely walk you through the process08:24
kata-irc-bot<amkucherenko> @anastassios.nanos I've using latest release, 2.2.0-aplha1, host - centos8, containerd - 1.5.4, runc - 1.0.108:57
kata-irc-bot<anastassios.nanos> perfect! have you set up device mapper for containerd? check `ctr plugins ls|grep devmapper`08:58
kata-irc-bot<amkucherenko> hmm... something wrong... I was sure that device mapper is working io.containerd.snapshotter.v1    devmapper                linux/amd64    error09:00
kata-irc-bot<anastassios.nanos> (if you’ve followed the docs creating a file to back up the devmapper pool then you’ll have to enable it at each reboot)09:01
kata-irc-bot<anastassios.nanos> also, if devmapper is not the default containerd snapshotter, you might want to specify --snapshotter devmapper in the ctr cmd line: ```# ctr run --snapshotter devmapper --runtime io.containerd.run.kata-fc.v2 -t --rm docker.io/library/ubuntu:latest ubuntu-test /bin/bash root@clr-d25fa567d2f440df9eb4316de1699b51:/# uname -a Linux clr-d25fa567d2f440df9eb4316de1699b51 5.10.25 #1 SMP Fri Apr 9 18:18:14 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_6409:03
kata-irc-botx86_64 GNU/Linux``` 09:03
kata-irc-bot<anastassios.nanos> we have a short wip tutorial for setting up devicemapper for this purpose, should be out sometime this week09:05
kata-irc-bot<amkucherenko> now everything worked, thx!!!09:42

kata-irc-bot<efoster> Silly question! Is `qemu-experimental` still being used? And if so, is there a way to get that make target to build and include it? Barring that, could I just build the tarball manually via a `make build-experimental` and then throw it in the same dir as the rest of the tarballs?16:39
kata-irc-bot<efoster> Ah, yep, if I just stick `kata-static-qemu-experimental.tar.gz` in the `build` directory, `kata-deploy-merge-builds.sh` should just automagically pick it up and do the thing16:45
jimbob123Does kata 1.x no longer accept PRs?22:38
