# Building from Source
|
|
|
|
- [Requirements](#requirements)
|
|
- [Basic instructions](#basic-instructions)
|
|
- [QEMU Driver](#qemu-driver)
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- gcc and g++ 8 or newer, clang 10 or newer, or other compiler with C++11 plus
|
|
designated initializers support from C++20
|
|
- CMake
|
|
- liburing, jerasure headers and libraries
|
|
- ISA-L, libibverbs headers and libraries (optional)
|
|
- tcmalloc (google-perftools-dev)
|
|
|
|
## Basic instructions
|
|
|
|
Download source, for example using git: `git clone --recurse-submodules https://yourcmc.ru/git/vitalif/vitastor/`
|
|
|
|
Get `fio` source and symlink it into `<vitastor>/fio`. If you don't want to build fio engine,
|
|
you can disable it by passing `-DWITH_FIO=no` to cmake.
|
|
|
|
Build and install Vitastor:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd vitastor
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
cmake .. && make -j8 install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## QEMU Driver
|
|
|
|
It's recommended to build the QEMU driver (qemu_driver.c) in-tree, as a part of
|
|
QEMU build process. To do that:
|
|
- Install vitastor client library headers (from source or from vitastor-client-dev package)
|
|
- Take a corresponding patch from `patches/qemu-*-vitastor.patch` and apply it to QEMU source
|
|
- Copy `src/qemu_driver.c` to QEMU source directory as `block/block-vitastor.c`
|
|
- Build QEMU as usual
|
|
|
|
But it is also possible to build it out-of-tree. To do that:
|
|
- Get QEMU source, begin to build it, stop the build and copy headers:
|
|
- `<qemu>/include` → `<vitastor>/qemu/include`
|
|
- Debian:
|
|
* Use qemu packages from the main repository
|
|
* `<qemu>/b/qemu/config-host.h` → `<vitastor>/qemu/b/qemu/config-host.h`
|
|
* `<qemu>/b/qemu/qapi` → `<vitastor>/qemu/b/qemu/qapi`
|
|
- CentOS 8:
|
|
* Use qemu packages from the Advanced-Virtualization repository. To enable it, run
|
|
`yum install centos-release-advanced-virtualization.noarch` and then `yum install qemu`
|
|
* `<qemu>/config-host.h` → `<vitastor>/qemu/b/qemu/config-host.h`
|
|
* For QEMU 3.0+: `<qemu>/qapi` → `<vitastor>/qemu/b/qemu/qapi`
|
|
* For QEMU 2.0+: `<qemu>/qapi-types.h` → `<vitastor>/qemu/b/qemu/qapi-types.h`
|
|
- `config-host.h` and `qapi` are required because they contain generated headers
|
|
- Configure Vitastor with `WITH_QEMU=yes` and, if you're on RHEL, also with `QEMU_PLUGINDIR=qemu-kvm`:
|
|
`cmake .. -DWITH_QEMU=yes`.
|
|
- After that, Vitastor will build `block-vitastor.so` during its build process.
|
|
- This way you can use the driver even with unmodified QEMU, but you'll need to set
|
|
environment variable `LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qemu/block-vitastor.so`
|
|
and Vitastor disks won't work in QAPI and in "new" JSON syntax `-blockdev` in this case.
