ARM64 Linux下ARM容器使用yum的问题

ARM 容器问题

前段时间需要验证某客户的 32 位 ARM Linux 程序,由于我们只有现成的 ARM64 设备和系统,而 ARM64 兼容 32 位 armel 和 armhf,因此想到直接在 ARM64(aarch64)Linux 系统中运行 32 位 ARM(armhf)容器来进行测试。

客户程序使用的是 CentOS 7 32 位 ARM 开发环境,这里我使用 LXC 官方镜像来创建一个完整的 CentOS 7 容器系统:

~ # lxc-create -n arm -t download --dir=/var/lib/lxc/arm/rootfs -- --server mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/lxc-images -d centos -r 7 -a armhf

32 位 ARM 容器可以正常启动,但使用 yum 安装任何软件包会报错:

bash-4.2# yum install openssh-server
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Determining fastest mirrors


 One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown),
 and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
 safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:

     1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.

     2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working
        upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
        distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
        packages for the previous distribution release still work).

     3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled
            yum --disablerepo=<repoid> ...

     4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum
        will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it
        again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage:

            yum-config-manager --disable <repoid>
        or
            subscription-manager repos --disable=<repoid>

     5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.
        Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
        so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
        slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
        compromise:

            yum-config-manager --save --setopt=<repoid>.skip_if_unavailable=true

Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base/7/armv8l

yum 修改

上面 yum 命令的报错提示找不到 repo 为 base/7/armv8l 的地址,我们可以在容器中使用 uname 命令确认当前的系统架构为 armv8l(ARM64 内核运行 32 位 ARM 程序):

bash-4.2# uname -m
armv8l

而在主机端则可以看到真正的系统架构为 aarch64

~ # uname -m
aarch64

正是由于 yum 不能正确识别 armv8l这个特殊的系统架构,导致命令执行失败。

我们可以修改 /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rpmUtils/arch.py 文件,使 yum 可以正确处理 armv8l 架构,以下为 patch 修改内容:

diff -rNp a/arch.py b/arch.py
*** a/arch.py   Thu Oct 29 23:46:21 2020
--- b/arch.py   Thu Oct 29 23:48:55 2020
*************** arches = {
*** 73,78 ****
--- 73,79 ----
      "armv5tel": "noarch",
  
      #arm hardware floating point
+     "armv8l": "armv7hl",
      "armv7hnl": "armv7hl",
      "armv7hl": "noarch",
  
*************** def getBaseArch(myarch=None):
*** 442,447 ****
--- 443,450 ----
          return "ppc"
      elif myarch.startswith("arm64"):
          return "arm64"
+     elif myarch == "armv8l":
+         return "armhfp"
      elif myarch.startswith("armv7h"):
          return "armhfp"
      elif myarch.startswith("arm"):

此时再运行 yum 就可以正确找到软件包了:

  package tcp_wrappers-libs-7.6-77.el7.armv7hl is intended for a different architecture
  package openssh-server-7.4p1-21.el7.armv7hl is intended for a different architecture

不过这次轮到 rpm 报错了,提示 RPM 包的架构不相符。

rpm 修改

我们先试着手工安装 yum 下载下来但安装失败的 RPM 包,可以看到还是相同的报错:

bash-4.2# rpm -ivh /var/cache/yum/armhfp/7/base/packages/tcp_wrappers-libs-7.6-77.el7.armv7hl.rpm
Preparing...                          ################################# [100%]
        package tcp_wrappers-libs-7.6-77.el7.armv7hl is intended for a different architecture

这也是由于 rpm 命令不能正确处理 armv8l 架构,其实对于这种 RPM 包的架构不相符的情况,我们可以为 rpm 命令增加 --ignorearch 参数强制安装:

bash-4.2# rpm -ivh --ignorearch /var/cache/yum/armhfp/7/base/packages/tcp_wrappers-libs-7.6-77.el7.armv7hl.rpm
Preparing...                          ################################# [100%]
Updating / installing...
   1:tcp_wrappers-libs-7.6-77.el7     ################################# [100%]

当然我们的最终目的是要让 yum 能够自动安装软件包,因此还需要让 rpm 命令也能正确识别 armv8l 架构。

为此我们需要修改 /usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc 文件,将 armv8l 视为 armv7hnl

diff -rNp a/rpmrc b/rpmrc 
*** a/rpmrc     Fri Oct 30 00:15:17 2020
--- b/rpmrc     Fri Oct 30 00:16:32 2020

  arch_compat: armv7hnl: armv7hl
  arch_compat: armv7hl: noarch

此时我们再使用 yum 命令就可以正确下载和安装软件包了:

  1. 依云:

    不用 setarch 试试么?

  2. Uranus Zhou:

    这个原来想过,试了一下 setarch --list 显示只有 linux32 和 linux64 可配置,
    使用 linux64,uname -m 显示 ARM64 自己的 aarch64 了,
    使用 linux32,uname -m 显示现在的 armv8l,
    如果能直接设置或者返回一个正常表示 32 位的 armv7l 的话,那就不用改 yum 和 rpm 了。

  3. 依云:

    咦,你的 setarch 不支持 armv7l 啥的啊……

  4. Uranus Zhou:

    看了下 CentOS 7 自带的 util-linux 太老不支持,最新 2.36 版本中的 setarch 才支持 armv7l,也是最新的改动:
    setarch: add arm and aarch64 architectures to transition rules

    升级成 setarch 2.36 版本确实有了:

    bash-4.2# setarch --list
    uname26
    linux32
    linux64
    armv7l
    armv8l
    armh
    arm
    arm64
    aarch64

    然而 setarch 指定使用 armv7l 返回的仍然是 armv8l:

    bash-4.2# setarch armv7l uname -m
    armv8l
