Posted: Mon Dec 11, 2017 4:28 am Post subject: Gentoo With Musl [I have no idea what I'm doing] |
|
|
Greetings to all. I hope this message finds you in good places—with good people.
I had hoped to start this as a “how-to” for Gentoo musl, but I’m stuck. With your good graces, maybe we can work this into some sort of self-help. If it pleases everyone, I’ll update this later with my methodology with all the ins-and-outs, but for now, here’s the TL;DR:
I’m chrooted into my environment, I can build an XFCE desktop and all its goodies, but for the life of me, I cannot boot.
Try as I might, I can't get an initramfs. Genkernel gives me this:
Code: | * Gentoo Linux Genkernel; Version 68
* Running with options: --install initramfs
* Using genkernel.conf from /etc/genkernel.conf
* Sourcing arch-specific config.sh from /usr/share/genkernel/arch/x86_64/config.sh ..

And etc, etc.
I’ve tried compiling the kernel manually and that gives no errors. Going through the the whole grub-mkconfig thingie works fine. System recognizes and tries to boot into it, but always with the kernel panic:
Code: | unable to mount root fs block [0.0] |
Or something along those lines.
This is all new to me. Honestly, there’s always been someone else who’s asked the same question I’ve had, and so I’ve been able to humm along quietly in the background. But here with musl experimental, I’m really struggling.
Here’s my make.conf
Code: | # These settings were set by the catalyst build script that automatically
# built this stage.
# Please consult /usr/share/portage/config/make.conf.example for a more
# detailed example.
CFLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"

I’ve researched the snot out of this—been working on this on-and-off for about a week—have learned a lot, but obviously I’m too dense to see what the problem is. I can’t help but feel it’s right in front of me.
Yes, I installed the experimental musl stage3. Absolutely I got layman going and got the musl overlay happening.
In all my other installs, I’ve never bothered with multiple partitions—just one big fat ext4 and then genkernel (or a quickie kernel tweak) took care of it. This whole bootstrap issue is (obviously) new.
[IHAVENOIDEAWHATI’MDOING]
Found a bug report here: https://github.com/orsonteodoro/muslx32/issues/4 but I’m not sure if it’s even relevant anymore.
I’ve subscribed to the gentoo-musl mailing list and scoured their history, but for the most part it’s devs talking to devs. They’ve already got a working system and (seriously) know what they're talking about.
So I’m flustered. My feathers are rustled.
I’ll calm my tits eventually, but for now I’m crawling before you with alms bowl in hand—humbly begging for a few shekels of help.
Is there any way I can boot into this puppy!?
[edit] I'm in this for the long haul; would really enjoy and appreciate anyone walking me through this. I'm not a fly-by-night kitten! |

unheatedgarage,
Configure your kernel so you don't need an initrd.
You need to set a few things =y in the kernel but thats it.
These few things are
the options to read your partition tables
support for SCSI disks
support for your HDD controller, at least, the one that has your root filesystem attached.
support for your root filesystem.
Everything else can be modules.
Build and install your kernel and modules in the normal way.
You might even be able to use genkernel -menuconfig to help. _________________ Regards,

In my opinion, your choice implies the following acquired:
- have the fundamentals of programming
- know the development environment
- have a good knowledge of the C language (advanced level)
It seems to me that the third element is essential to perceive significant elements. Feel free to ask questions! |

What Neddy said.
Oh, I wouldn't use: -fomit-frame-pointer either. It's not as useful on amd64 as x86.
IIRC RBP is used for object/module lookup as well (might be something else), and the ABI requires double-word (64-bit not intel asm) stack alignment, so pushing RBP on entry is not an issue; it actually makes everything simpler. |

A long time coming--the holidays and end-of-semester hyperbole were enough to keep me tied up, but I'm back and have successfully booted.
Turns out it's because I, derpitty-derp, was following the systemd instructions for grub. It's been a long time since I've done a default install, so there I was trying to do systemd where it absolutely does not belong.
So, hurray! I'm installed with musl! Yay! Uh, now what do I do?
This all began by finding this very interesting blog while I was searching for ways to compile Chromium with clang. One thing lead to another, and now I'm here. Fun!
Guess I'll be using it until something breaks. Maybe I'll get the smarts one day to file a bug report if I find one, but until then I'll just slink back into the shadows.
Thank you for all your help, everyone. |

And I'll add that the idea of me starting this as a "how to"? And to somehow "give" my methodology?
HA. Haha, haha, haha...
The hubris. The arrogance. The horror.

Same error here
Code: | genkernel --lvm --luks initramfs |
My kernel was build on the normal way
Code: | make menuconfig && make && make modules_install && make install |
A need a initramfs for dm-crypt (luks encrypted disk)
any idea how to fix this ? |

Hi there,
You could try better-initramfs (https://bitbucket.org/piotrkarbowski/better-initramfs); has been working fine for me on musl. I've had to switch since it's got no ZFS support though! |

I wouldn't do the latter; it sounds like you haven't gotten into IRC yet (if you have, excuse me.)
I highly recommend you /join #gentoo-musl on IRC: chat.freenode.net or .org as well as #gentoo-chat for social offtopic nonsense.
There aren't enough musl users (yet) and it means you can get "live" support, as well as quicker fixes. Just being able to chat with other people who are into, and running, the same stuff as you is a big easement, ime.
Musl is a great basis to learn portable POSIX coding, btw. It's well-written (I chatted with the author online quite a bit, a while back, and he knows his craft) and it helps wean you off any glibc-dependencies you may have fostered, if you learnt to code on Linux. |

Hello,
Thanks for your suggestion
I tried better-initramfs, I can build it, generate the initd and grub boot
However I end with the error "/dev/sda3 /newroot..."
Code: | ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ###
menuentry 'Gentoo GNU/Linux' --class gentoo --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-/dev/mapper/crypt' {
load_video
insmod gzio
insmod part_msdos
set root='hd1,msdos1'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd1,msdos1 --hint-efi=hd1,msdos1 --hint-baremetal=ahci1,msdos1 812d41a8-5d34-4f95-a1b5-b139fdc712b9
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 812d41a8-5d34-4f95-a1b5-b139fdc712b9
fi
echo 'Loading Linux 4.9.73-minipli+grsec ...'
linux /vmlinuz-4.9.73-minipli+grsec root=UUID=c1706691-300b-4ef4-94dc-90aa7196606a crypt_root=/dev/sda3 real_root=/dev/mapper/crypt lvm rootfstype=ext4 ro
echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
initrd /initramfs.cpio.gz
} |
This is what I have in my grub
I can access to a shell with busybox, I use cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 crypt and use the resume-boot command, but it still won't boot, repeating /dev/sda3 /newroot
Any idea ?
My fstab :
Code: | /dev/sda1 /boot ext4 defaults,noatime 0 2
/dev/sda2 none swap sw 0 0
UUID="c1706691-300b-4ef4-94dc-90aa7196606a" / ext4 defaults 0 0 |
dmcrypt was add in boot with rc-update
My kernel have the exact same .config of my actual Gentoo hardened which have luks encrypted disk too |

Despite the lack of documentation regarding musl and the stage3 musl containing some unpatched header, I finally made it, gcc 7.2.0, kernel build, grub, system ready to be use. I was I though
- No compatibility with genkernel for generate the initramfs needed for dmcrypt / luks full encrypt, let's find another way
- Tried better-initramfs which look promising, ended with the problem related here https://bitbucket.org/piotrkarbowski/better-initramfs#rst-header-id15, I will wait the response of -J I may have miss something.
- Dracut, supposed to work with musl (package get from the overlay musl), try to emerge it you end with the error "no libc found"
I put away for now the idea of musl on Gentoo, I could make it work without dmcrypt / luks, but this is absolutely not an acceptable option.

gengreen ... I have a default/linux/musl/x86 install with dmcrypt/luks, lvm, and better-initramfs, it's in storage as I had issues with musl and intel_drv.so (xorg) "lazy binding" and so put it aside. Anyhow, that is a separate issue, so enough said ... WRT, better-initramfs, there should be no issues with musl as better-initramfs is built using Aboriginal Linux (with uClibc) and so none of that matters (it's a completely separate build system), in fact you can built it elsewhere, or you could use the pre-built "release".
So, all you need do is grab the release and provide the required parameters via grub2.cfg, eg:
Code: | rootfstype=ext4 luks enc_root=/dev/sdaX lvm root=/dev/mapper/vg-root |
... and that particular issue should be solved.
If you have further questions feel free to ask ... best ... khay |

khayyam thanks you, I was able to boot
The problem remain, /newroot
But, with cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 crypt and mount /dev/mapper/crypt /newroot the system will boot.
It is not really practical but as I don't reboot often, I can accept it until I find out where is the problem
My grub
Code: |
menuentry 'Gentoo GNU/Linux' --class gentoo --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-/dev/mapper/crypt' {
load_video
insmod gzio
insmod part_msdos
set root='hd1,msdos1'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd1,msdos1 --hint-efi=hd1,msdos1 --hint-baremetal=ahci1,msdos1 812d41a8-5d34-4f95-a1b5-b139fdc712b9
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 812d41a8-5d34-4f95-a1b5-b139fdc712b9
fi
echo 'Loading Linux 4.9.73-minipli+grsec ...'
linux /vmlinuz-4.9.73-minipli+grsec enc_root=/dev/sda3 lvm root=/dev/mapper/crypt
echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
initrd /initramfs.cpio.gz
}

Any suggestion ? |

gengreen ... yes, you need to pass 'luks' also ... otherwise, hehehe :)

I'd also recommend passing rootfstype=ext4 (or whatever you happen to be using).

} |
However I have to replace /dev/mapper/crypt by /dev/mapper/enc_root, the luks password prompt target /dev/mapper/enc_root even if the is /dev/mapper/crypt or /dev/mapper/cat
better-initramfs should definitively be available in the portage and the Gentoo documentation, it rox ! |

hmmm ... 'enc_root' is what the system will see as the 'name' of the 'LVM2_member':
lsblk -o +fstype,label: | NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT FSTYPE LABEL
sda 8:0 0 298.1G 0 disk

├─vg-swap 254:1 0 2G 0 lvm [SWAP] swap swap
├─vg-root 254:2 0 10G 0 lvm / ext4 root
├─vg-var 254:3 0 6G 0 lvm /var ext4 var
└─vg-home 254:4 0 279.9G 0 lvm /home ext4 home |
However, this won't be 'root' (or whatever your LV is called), perhaps when you created your PV you provided some other name? Check with 'lsblk'.
gengreen wrote: | better-initramfs should definitively be available in the portage and the Gentoo documentation, it rox ! |
I agree, and you won't have to re-build it as and when you update the kernel. Also, it doesn't require you build cryptsetup, lvm2, etc, as 'static' ... it's also damn small.
Code: | # du -h -d0 /usr/src/initramfs/sourceroot/
2.9M /usr/src/initramfs/sourceroot/ |

I previously copy/paste the grub I keep in backup when I reinstall Gentoo, no lvm on my new install so I end up with this
Code: |
menuentry 'Gentoo 4.9.73-minipli' {
insmod gzio
insmod part_msdos
set root='hd1,msdos1'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 812d41a8-5d34-4f95-a1b5-b139fdc712b9
linux /vmlinuz-4.9.73-minipli+grsec rootfstype=ext4 luks enc_root=/dev/sda3 root=/dev/mapper/enc_root
initrd /initramfs.cpio.gz
}
|
It work just fine thanks again.
Everything went perfect, I emerged almost everything I need until I failed on
I haven't found the single solution to build this against musl, so no tcpdump, no suricata... But no way to abandon now
I'm trying something else, not sure if this is recommanded or even possible, but I used crossdev to in the hope to build the only thing I need (libpcap / suricata or snort and tcpdump) using glibc
Code: | crossdev --k 4.9.74 --l "=2.26-r3" -s3 -t x86_64-pc-linux-gnu |
Code: | /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/etc/portage/make.conf |

PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${ROOT}usr/lib/pkgconfig/"
#PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local/" |
I used export to setup my env :
Code: | export ARCH=amd64
export CHOST=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
export ROOT=/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/ |
And finaly x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-emerge to get what I need. libpcap merged with success, tcpdump, suricata or snort failed
Any suggestion are the most welcome |

gengreen ... I'm fairly sure I didn't have issues with libpcap, or tcpdump, these should build as they are packaged for Alpine Linux (libpacp, tcpdump, suricata) ... and Alpine is musl based. In the past when I've had issues I would check for any patches applied to Alpine and adjust the ebuild in a local overlay (if necessary, and mostly it isn't because gentoo-musl seems to have a close eye on Alpine). You might find this is a gcc-7.2.0 issue, try with 6.4.0. Otherwise, you'd need to post the build.log, 'emerge --info', etc.

I'm fairly sure it's not a musl problem, and so that would seem like a poor workaround. Unrelated, but I gave up with using crossdev ... it's horrible. If you must then take a look at buildroot.

All good, I just replaced the if.h by the original one, libpcap is merged and I tried net-tools to make sure and no problem. |

I've tried the same as OP, but with some success after editing some headers... Now I get to the part where the it appens cpio data and it stops at "Appending linker cpio data" with error: Could not copy ld.so.{cache,conf}
musl doesn't provide ldconfig (it is there, but it doesn't work) and I think it is going for ld.so.cache...
So is there any way to get this genkernel to build? I have tried dracut and better-initramfs, with no luck :< |

I'm actually reinstalling my system with the profile musl hardened after taking the decision to go back using the mainline kernel.

Nothing changed, musl is stable and I haven't encounter the single problem or the need to edit a single header line... regarding the generation tool for the initramfs, better initramfs work out of the box, what the problem you got with ?

Yes it is one of the point that make musl far more secure... |
