Installation Solaris Sparc 2.6 (SunOS 5.6) on Qemu - Part3 iou2net.pl Installation

Prerequisites

Host system - Fedora 15 Linux or any other Linux

Ghost system - Solaris 2.6 sparc installed on Qemu disk
https://brezular.com/2012/02/17/installation-solaris-2-6-sparc-on-qemu-part2-solaris-installation/

Qemu v1.0.50 compiled for sparc support installed on host system
https://brezular.com/2012/02/12/installation-solaris-sparc-2-6-sunos-5-6-on-qemu-part-1-qemu-installation/

Script iou2net.pl - connects IOU instance inside Qemu disk to the real world
https://github.com/jlgaddis/iou2net

Solaris 2.6 installation CD
Solaris_2.6_Software_05_98.img

Solaris 9 installation CD
Solaris 9 sol-9-905hw-ga-sparc-dvd.iso

They are four install DVD.

sol-9-905hw-ga-sparc-dvd-iso-a
sol-9-905hw-ga-sparc-dvd-iso-b
sol-9-905hw-ga-sparc-dvd-iso-c
sol-9-905hw-ga-sparc-dvd-iso-d

Merge iso images with cat command:

cat sol-9-905hw-ga-sparc-dvd-iso-? > sol-9-ga-sparc-dvd.iso

Solaris 2.6 packages and source files
Download required packages and create ISO image of them. For easy manipulation with files unpack Solaris packages and source files directly on the ghost system first and then create iso image.Use k3b (Fedora). Qemu disk will be started with virtual CDROM having ISO image attached aspackages.iso.

Solaris 2.6 packages are those with .gz extension. Go to the directory when sparc packages are located and use this script to gunzip them all.

for i in . ; do  gunzip * ; done

Similary, extract tar sources.

for i in $(ls) ; do tar -xvf $i; done

Here is the list  of Solaris Packages. The list of Perl modules is here.

1) Bridging Script

A bridging script will create tap interface and attach it to the bridge. It also attaches host Ethernet interface to the bridge.

/home/brezular/Download/sparc/bridge_interfaces

Find more about script here. The script can be downloaded here.

2) Running Solaris 2.6 from Qemu Disk with Solaris 2.6 Install CD attached

/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-sparc -bios /usr/local/share/qemu/ss20_v2.25_rom -M SS-20 -nographic  -boot c -hda ./36G.disk -cdrom ./2.6/Solaris_2.6_Software_05_98.img -m 512 -serial telnet:0.0.0.0:3000,server -net nic,vlan=0,macaddr=00:aa:00:60:00:01,model=lance -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0,script=no -smp 2,cores=4 -cpu "TI SuperSparc 60"

Connect to Qemu
telnet localhost 3000

When ok prompt is displayed, enter the command sbus-probe-list f and reset. The system will be rebooted.

Can't open boot device

Type  help  for more information
ok setenv sbus-probe-list f
sbus-probe-list =     f
ok reset

After restart, prompt is displayed again. Boot system from disk0 with command

Can't open boot device

Type  help  for more information
ok boot disk0

Username is root without password set.

Set IP address.
ifconfig le0 172.18.100.150 netmask 255.255.0.0 up

Set default gateway.
route add default 172.18.100.1

If you want to keep default router settings permanent:

touch /etc/defaultrouter
cat >> /etc/defaultrouter
172.8.100.1
^d   <--- ctrl+d

3) Installation Solaris 2.6 Packages

First, get info about disks.

iostat -En

Mount Solaris installation CD to /mnt/

mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t2d0s0 /mnt
cd /mnt/Solaris_2.6/Product

Although not neccessary, it is recommended to create a script to help mount CDROM

mkdir -p /usr/local/bin/

cat > /usr/local/bin/mount_cdrom
#Script mounts CDROM to /mnt
mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t2d0s0 /mnt
^d

chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/mount_cdrom

Install the required Sun packages.

touch /tmp/admin
cat >> /tmp/admin
instance=overwrite
mail=
basedir=/
^d

cd /mnt/Solaris_2.6/Product
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWarc
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWhea
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWbtool
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWlibC
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWlibCf
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWtoo
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWlibm
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWlibms
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWsprot
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWdfbh
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWcg6h
pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWcsu

We need libraries from package SUNWxwrtl in order to run vim application. We are not going to install the package as libraries would be installed to /lib/ directory. This is not desired behavior because the directory /lib should be presented only as a symbolic link to /usr/lib. Manually copy required libraries to the following directories.

mkdir /usr/openwin/lib/

cp /mnt/Solaris_2.6/Tools/Boot/usr/openwin/lib/libXmu.so.4 /usr/openwin/lib/
cp /mnt/Solaris_2.6/Tools/Boot/usr/openwin/lib/libXext.so.0 /usr/openwin/lib/
cp /mnt/Solaris_2.6/Tools/Boot/usr/lib/libXm.so.3 /usr/lib/
cp /mnt/Solaris_2.6/Tools/Boot/usr/openwin/lib/libXt.so.4 /usr/openwin/lib/
cp /mnt/Solaris_2.6/Tools/Boot/usr/openwin/lib/libSM.so.6 /usr/openwin/lib/
cp /mnt/Solaris_2.6/Tools/Boot/usr/openwin/lib/libICE.so.6 /usr/openwin/lib/
cp /mnt/Solaris_2.6/Tools/Boot/usr/openwin/lib/libX11.so.4 /usr/openwin/lib/

Halt Qemu image. Boot Qemu with this CD iso image:

/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-sparc -bios /usr/local/share/qemu/ss20_v2.25_rom -M
SS-20 -nographic -boot c -hda ./36G.disk -cdrom ./packages.iso -m 512 -serial telnet:0.0.0.0:3000,server -net nic,vlan=0,macaddr=00:aa:00:60:00:01,model=lance -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0,script=no -smp 2,cores=4 -cpu "TI SuperSparc 60"

Login to the system and set the Environment Variables.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/lib:/usr/local/X11/lib:/usr/dt/lib:/usr/openwin/lib
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/etc:/usr/etc:/usr/ucb:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/local/etc
MANPATH=/usr/local/man:/usr/man:/usr/local/X11/man
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH PATH MANPATH

Add the lines also to /etc/profile to have variables kept after restart.

cat >> /etc/profile
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/lib:/usr/local/X11/lib:/usr/dt/lib:/usr/openwin/lib
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/etc:/usr/etc:/usr/ucb:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/local/etc
MANPATH=/usr/local/man:/usr/man:/usr/local/X11/man
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH PATH MANPATH
^d

Mount CDROM.

/usr/local/bin/mount_cdrom
cd /mnt/

Install following Solaris packages with pkgadd -d command.

pkgadd -d egd-0.8-sol26-sparc-local
pkgadd -d bison-2.4.3-sol26-sparc-local
pkgadd -d make-3.82-sol26-sparc-local
pkgadd -d popt-1.14-sol26-sparc-local
pkgadd -d tcp_wrappers-7.6-sol26-sparc-local

We have perl installed in /usr/local/bin/. Create a symbolic link /usr/bin/perl pointing to /usr/local/bin/perl.

ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl

4) SUNWcsl Installation

Halt the system and boot from Qemu disk with attached Solaris 9 Installation DVD. We need to install package SUNWcsl available in Solaris 9.

/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-sparc -bios /usr/local/share/qemu/ss20_v2.25_rom -M SS-20 -nographic -boot c -hda ./36G.disk -cdrom ./sol-9-905hw-ga-sparc-dvd.iso -m 512 -serial telnet:0.0.0.0:3000,server -net nic,vlan=0,macaddr=00:aa:00:60:00:01,model=lance -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0,script=no -smp 2,cores=4 -cpu"TI SuperSparc 60"

/usr/local/bin/mount_cdrom

touch /tmp/admin
cat >> /tmp/admin
instance=overwrite
mail=
basedir=/
^d

We need to bzcat utility to get SUNWcsl installed properly.

cp /mnt/Solaris_9/Tools/Boot/usr/bin/bzcat /usr/bin/
cp  /mnt/Solaris_9/Product/SUNWbzip/reloc/usr/lib/libbz2.so.1 /usr/lib/
cd /mnt/Solaris_9/Product

pkgadd -a /tmp/admin -d . SUNWcsl

Do you want to install these conflicting files [y,n,?,q] n
Do you want to install these conflicting files [y,n,?,q] y
Do you want to continue with the installation of <SUNWcsl> [y,n,?] y

Halt Solaris again and boot it again with packages.iso attached to CDROM.

/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-sparc -bios/usr/local/share/qemu/ss20_v2.25_rom -M SS-20 -nographic -boot c -hda ./36G.disk -cdrom ./packages.iso -m 512 -serial telnet:0.0.0.0:3000,server -net nic,vlan=0,macaddr=00:aa:00:60:00:01,model=lance -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0,script=no -smp 2,cores=4 -cpu "TI SuperSparc 60"

5) Additional Solaris Packages and Perl Modules Installation

/usr/local/bin/mount_cdrom

6) SSH  Configuration

cat /var/adm/wtmpx >> /usr/local/etc/prngd/prngd-seed
cat /var/adm/wtmpx >> /usr/local/etc/prngd/prngd-seed

mkdir /var/spool/prngd
/usr/local/sbin/prngd /var/spool/prngd/pool
ln -s /var/spool/prngd/pool /dev/egd-pool

To start prngd at boot create an init script:

cat >> /etc/init.d/prngd

#!/bin/sh

pid=`/usr/bin/ps -e | /usr/bin/grep prngd | /usr/bin/sed -e 's/^  *//' -e 's/ .*//'`
case $1 in
'start')
/usr/local/sbin/prngd /var/spool/prngd/pool
;;
'stop')
if [ "${pid}" != "" ]
then
/usr/bin/kill ${pid}
fi
;;
*)
echo "usage: /etc/init.d/prngd {start|stop}"
;;
esac
^d

Assign privilegies to the script.

chgrp sys /etc/init.d/prngd
chmod 555 /etc/init.d/prngd
ln -s /etc/init.d/prngd /etc/rc2.d/S98prngd

Setting up the sshd user and the /var/empty directory

mkdir /var/empty/
chown root:sys /var/empty/
chmod 755 /var/empty/
groupadd sshd
useradd -g sshd -c 'sshd privsep' -d /var/empty -s /bin/false sshd

Create rsa and dsa public/private key pair

ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -f /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_key -N ""
ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_dsa_key -N ""
ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_rsa_key -N ""

Create an init script.

cat >> /etc/init.d/sshd

case "$1" in
'start')
if [ -x /usr/local/sbin/sshd ]; then
echo "Starting the secure shell daemon"
/usr/local/sbin/sshd &
fi
;;

'stop')
echo "Stopping the secure shell daemon "
pkill -TERM sshd
;;
*)
echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/sshd { start | stop }"
;;
esac
exit 0
^d

chown root /etc/init.d/sshd
chgrp sys /etc/init.d/sshd
chmod 555 /etc/init.d/sshd
ln -s /etc/init.d/sshd /etc/rc2.d/S98sshd

To be bale login we have to set password for root account. Set password to root.

passwd

7) IOU Configuration

a) Prevent the iou binaries call home

cat >> /etc/hosts
127.0.0.127 xml.cisco.com
127.0.0.127 cisco.com
127.0.0.127 terence.cisco.com
127.0.0.127 terence
127.0.0.127 xml
127.0.0.127 cisco
^d

b)  Setting the NETMAP and iourc file

cat >> /etc/profile
IOURC=/export/home/iou/iourc
NETIO_NETMAP=/export/home/iou/NETMAP
export IOURC NETIO_NETMAP
^d

mkdir /export/home/iou/
touch /export/home/iou/NETMAP

cat >> /export/home/iou/iourc
[license]
iou = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx;  # Using hostname "iou" and hostid "72000000"
^d

Even hostid is calculated based on MAC address of the first Ethernet card, it is not changed when MAC address is changed.

To get valid licence number use crack.py script. Python must be installed.

mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t2d0s0 /mnt
cp -r /mnt/iou/carck.py /export/home/iou/
chmod 755 ./crack.py

cp -r /mnt/python-2.6.2-sol26-sparc-local /export/home/python/
cd /export/home/python/
pkgadd -d python-2.6.2-sol26-sparc-local

c) iou2net.pl, wrapper, iou_binary

cp /mnt/iou/iou2net.pl /export/home/iou/
chmod +x /export/home/iou/iou2net.pl

cp /mnt/iou/wrapper /export/home/iou/
chmod +x /export/home/iou/wrapper

cp /mnt/iou/iou_binary /export/home/iou/
chmod +x /export/home/iou/iou_binary

8) CPU Usage Limitation

To decrease CPU load of the host system use cpulimit utility.

Install Fedora packages.

sudo yum install svncpp.i686

Get the latest source code from Subversion repository with this command

svn checkout https://cpulimit.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cpulimit/trunk cpulimit
cd ./cpulimit
make

Copy binary to /usr/local/bin/

cp ./cpulimit /usr/local/bin/

Examples of use:

- Get PID and CPU load with t0p command:

2534  root     20   0  403m 357m 2708 R 40.3 11.8  47:24.83 qemu-system-spa
1793  root     20   0  317m  54m  29m S 15.2  1.8  13:37.23 plasma-desktop

- Process can be specified by its name or PID.

Limit a process by name to 40% CPU

sudo /usr/local/bin/cpulimit -e qemu-system-sparc -l 40

or limit a process by PID to 40% CPU

sudo /usr/local/bin/cpulimit  -p 2534 -l 40

Clear logs and history

rm /.ssh/known_hosts
rm /.new
> /var/adm/wtmpx
> /.bash_history

9) Testing

a) Start Qemu disk

/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-sparc -bios /usr/local/share/qemu/ss20_v2.25_rom -M SS-20 -nographic -boot c -hda ./36G.disk -m 512 -serial telnet:0.0.0.0:3000,server -net nic,vlan=0,macaddr=00:aa:00:60:00:01,model=lance -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0,script=no -smp 2,cores=4 -cpu "TI SuperSparc 60"

Set sparc machine IP address:

ifconfig le0 172.18.100.150 netmask 255.255.0.0 up

Hostname IOU must be resolved by local DNS

cat >> /etc/hosts
172.18.100.150 iou

cat >> /export/home/iou/NETMAP
1:0/0@iou  11:0/0@iou    # iou is the hostname of the sparc qemu
1:0/1@iou  22:0/0@iou    # 11 and 22 are the gns3 router instances

b)  Run the iou sparc binary and the iou2net.pl script

/export/home/iou/wrapper -m  /export/home/iou/unixl2-upk9-ms.port-security -p 2001 -- -m 128 -q 1 &

perl /export/home/iou/iou2net.pl -p 11 -u 20001:172.18.100.141:30001 &
perl /export/home/iou/iou2net.pl -p 22 -u 20002:172.18.100.141:30002 &

172.18.100.141  is the Fedora host ip address.

c)  Start GNS3, use the cloud node and connect the routers using NIO_UDP settings

nio_udp:30001:172.18.100.150:20001
nio_udp:30002:172.18.100.150:20002

172.18.100.150 is the remote (qemu sparc) IP address.
