CRI-O Installation Instructions

This guide will walk you through the installation of CRI-O, an Open Container Initiative-based implementation of the Kubernetes Container Runtime Interface. It is assumed you are running a Linux machine.

Table of Contents:

Install packaged versions of CRI-O

CRI-O builds for native package managers using openSUSE's OBS

Supported versions

Below is a compatiblity matrix between versions of CRI-O (y-axis) and distributions (x-axis)

Fedora 31+ openSUSE CentOS_8 CentOS_8_Stream CentOS_7 Debian_Unstable Debian_Testing Debian 10 Rasbian_10 xUbuntu_20.04 xUbuntu_19.10 xUbuntu_19.04 xUbuntu_18.04
1.18 ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓
1.17 ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓
1.16 ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓

To install, choose a supported version for your operating system, and export it as a variable, like so: export VERSION=1.18

We also save releases as subprojects. If you'd, for instance, like to use 1.18.3 you can set export VERSION=1.18:1.18.3

Installation Instructions

openSUSE:

sudo zypper install cri-o

Fedora 31 or later

sudo dnf module enable cri-o:$VERSION
sudo dnf install cri-o

For Fedora, we only support setting minor versions. i.e: VERSION=1.18, and do not support pinning patch versions: VERSION=1.18.3

Other yum based operating systems

To install on the following operating systems, set the environment variable $OS as the appropriate field in the following table:

Operating system $OS
Centos 8 CentOS_8
Centos 8 Stream CentOS_8_Stream
Centos 7 CentOS_7

And then run the following as root:

curl -L -o /etc/yum.repos.d/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable.repo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/kubic:/libcontainers:/stable/$OS/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable.repo
curl -L -o /etc/yum.repos.d/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable:cri-o:$VERSION.repo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable:cri-o:$VERSION/$OS/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable:cri-o:$VERSION.repo
yum install cri-o

APT based operating systems

Note: this tutorial assumes you have curl and gnupg installed

To install on the following operating systems, set the environment variable $OS as the appropriate field in the following table:

Operating system $OS
Debian Unstable Debian_Unstable
Debian Testing Debian_Testing
Raspberry Pi OS Raspbian_10
Ubuntu 20.04 xUbuntu_20.04
Ubuntu 19.10 xUbuntu_19.10
Ubuntu 19.04 xUbuntu_19.04
Ubuntu 18.04 xUbuntu_18.04

And then run the following as root:

echo "deb https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/kubic:/libcontainers:/stable/$OS/ /" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable.list
echo "deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/kubic:/libcontainers:/stable:/cri-o:/$VERSION/$OS/ /" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable:cri-o:$VERSION.list

curl -L https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable:cri-o:$VERSION/$OS/Release.key | apt-key add -
curl -L https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/kubic:/libcontainers:/stable/$OS/Release.key | apt-key add -

apt-get update
apt-get install cri-o cri-o-runc

Note: We include cri-o-runc because Ubuntu and Debian include their own packaged version of runc. While this version should work with CRI-O, keeping the packaged versions of CRI-O and runc in sync ensures they work together. If you'd like to use the distribution's runc, you'll have to add the file:

[crio.runtime.runtimes.runc]
runtime_path = ""
runtime_type = "oci"
runtime_root = "/run/runc"

to /etc/crio/crio.conf.d/

Build and install CRI-O from source

Runtime dependencies

  • runc, Clear Containers runtime, or any other OCI compatible runtime
  • iproute
  • iptables

Latest version of runc is expected to be installed on the system. It is picked up as the default runtime by CRI-O.

Caveats and Notes:

If using an older release or a long-term support release, be careful to double-check that the version of runc is new enough (running runc --version should produce spec: 1.0.0), or else build your own.

Be careful to double-check that the version of golang is new enough, version 1.12.x or higher is required. If needed, newer golang versions are available at the official download website.

Get Source Code

Clone the source code using:

git clone https://github.com/cri-o/cri-o # or your fork
cd cri-o

Make sure your CRI-O and kubernetes versions are of matching major versions. For instance, if you want to be compatible with the latest kubernetes release, you'll need to use the latest tagged release of CRI-O on branch release-1.18.

Build

To install with default buildtags using seccomp, use:

make
sudo make install

Otherwise, if you do not want to build CRI-O with seccomp support you can add BUILDTAGS="" when running make.

make BUILDTAGS=""
sudo make install

Install with Ansible

An Ansible Role is also available to automate the above steps:

sudo su -
mkdir -p ~/.ansible/roles
cd ~/.ansible/roles
git clone https://github.com/alvistack/ansible-role-cri_o.git cri_o
cd ~/.ansible/roles/cri_o
pip3 install --upgrade --ignore-installed --requirement requirements.txt
molecule converge
molecule verify

Build Tags

CRI-O supports optional build tags for compiling support of various features. To add build tags to the make option the BUILDTAGS variable must be set.

make BUILDTAGS='seccomp apparmor'
Build Tag Feature Dependency
seccomp syscall filtering libseccomp
selinux selinux process and mount labeling libselinux
apparmor apparmor profile support

CRI-O manages images with containers/image, which uses the following buildtags.

Build Tag Feature Dependency
containers_image_openpgp use native golang pgp instead of cgo
containers_image_ostree_stub disable use of ostree as an image transport

CRI-O also uses containers/storage for managing container storage.

Build Tag Feature Dependency
exclude_graphdriver_btrfs exclude btrfs as a storage option
btrfs_noversion for building btrfs version < 3.16.1 btrfs
exclude_graphdriver_devicemapper exclude devicemapper as a storage option
libdm_no_deferred_remove don't compile deferred remove with devicemapper devicemapper
exclude_graphdriver_overlay exclude overlay as a storage option
ostree build storage using ostree ostree

Static builds

It is possible to build a statically linked binary of CRI-O by using the officially provided nix package and the derivation of it within this repository. The builds are completely reproducible and will create a x86_64/amd64 stripped ELF binary for glibc. These binaries are integration tested as well and support the following features:

  • apparmor
  • btrfs
  • device mapper
  • gpgme
  • seccomp
  • selinux

To build the binaries locally either install the nix package manager or setup a new container image from the root directory of this repository by executing:

make test-image-nix

Please note that you can specify the container runtime and image name by specifying:

make test-image-nix \
    CONTAINER_RUNTIME=podman \
    TESTIMAGE_NIX=crionix

The overall build process can take a tremendous amount of CPU time depending on the hardware. After the image has been successfully built, it should be possible to build the binaries:

make build-static

There exist an already pre-built container image used for the internal CI. This means that invoking make build-static should work even without building the image before.

Note that the container runtime and nix image can be specified here, too. The resulting binaries should now be available within:

  • bin/static/crio

To build the binaries without any prepared container and via the already installed nix package manager, simply run the following command from the root directory of this repository:

nix build -f nix

The resulting binary should be now available in result-bin/bin.

Creating a release archive

A release bundle consists of all static binaries, the man pages and configuration files like 00-default.conf. The release-bundle target can be used to build a new release archive within the current repository:

make release-bundle
…
Created ./bundle/crio-v1.15.0.tar.gz

Download conmon

conmon is a per-container daemon that CRI-O uses to monitor container logs and exit information. conmon needs to be downloaded with CRI-O.

running:

git clone https://github.com/containers/conmon
cd conmon
make
sudo make install

will download conmon to your $PATH.

Setup CNI networking

A proper description of setting up CNI networking is given in the contrib/cni README. But the gist is that you need to have some basic network configurations enabled and CNI plugins installed on your system.

CRI-O configuration

If you are installing for the first time, generate and install configuration files with:

sudo make install.config

Validate registries in registries.conf

Edit /etc/containers/registries.conf and verify that the registries option has valid values in it. For example:

[registries.search]
registries = ['registry.access.redhat.com', 'registry.fedoraproject.org', 'quay.io', 'docker.io']

[registries.insecure]
registries = []

[registries.block]
registries = []

For more information about this file see registries.conf(5).

Optional - Modify verbosity of logs

Users can modify the log_level by specifying an overwrite like /etc/crio/crio.conf.d/01-log-level.conf to change the verbosity of the logs. Options are fatal, panic, error, warn, info (default), debug and trace.

[crio.runtime]
log_level = "info"

Optional - Modify capabilities and sysctls

By default, CRI-O uses the following capabilities:

default_capabilities = [
	"CHOWN",
	"DAC_OVERRIDE",
	"FSETID",
	"FOWNER",
	"SETGID",
	"SETUID",
	"SETPCAP",
	"NET_BIND_SERVICE",
	"KILL",
]

and no sysctls

default_sysctls = [
]

Users can change either default by adding overwrites to /etc/crio/crio.conf.d.

Starting CRI-O

Running make install will download CRI-O into the folder

/usr/local/bin/crio

You can run it manually there, or you can set up a systemd unit file with:

sudo make install.systemd

And let systemd take care of running CRI-O:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable crio
sudo systemctl start crio

Using CRI-O
