## Build SONiC Switch Images
2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
2020-12-27 01:08:17 -06:00
# Description
2017-03-04 15:48:36 -06:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
Following are the instructions on how to build an [(ONIE) ](https://github.com/opencomputeproject/onie )
compatible network operating system (NOS) installer image for network switches,
and also how to build docker images running inside the NOS.
Note that SONiC images are build per ASIC platform.
Switches using the same ASIC platform share a common image.
For a list of supported switches and ASIC, please refer to this [list ](https://github.com/sonic-net/SONiC/wiki/Supported-Devices-and-Platforms )
2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
2017-05-10 13:21:56 -05:00
# Hardware
2021-08-25 06:35:31 -05:00
Any server can be a build image server as long as it has:
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
* Multiple cores to increase build speed
* Plenty of RAM (less than 8 GiB is likely to cause issues)
* 300G of free disk space
* KVM Virtualization Support.
2022-08-18 17:19:54 -05:00
> Note: If you are in a VM, make sure you have support for nested virtualization.
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
> Some cases (e.g. building OVS image) also requires extra configuration
> options to expose the full KVM interface to the VM
> (e.g. [the KVM paravirtualization support on VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch10.html#gimproviders)).
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2021-08-25 06:35:31 -05:00
A good choice of OS for building SONiC is currently Ubuntu 20.04.
2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
2021-08-25 06:35:31 -05:00
## Prerequisites
2019-08-26 12:35:41 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
* Install pip and jinja in host build machine, execute below commands
if j2/j2cli is not available:
2021-08-25 06:35:31 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
```shell
2021-08-25 06:35:31 -05:00
sudo apt install -y python3-pip
2022-12-14 08:37:49 -06:00
pip3 install --user j2cli
2021-08-25 06:35:31 -05:00
```
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
* Install [Docker ](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ ) and configure your
system to allow running the 'docker' command without 'sudo':
* Add current user to the docker group: `sudo gpasswd -a ${USER} docker`
* Log out and log back in so that your group membership is re-evaluated
2023-10-26 16:17:13 -05:00
* If you are using Linux kernel 5.3 or newer, then you must use Docker 20.10.10 or newer. This is because older Docker versions did not allow the `clone3` syscall, which is now used in Bookworm.
2016-12-21 17:51:23 -06:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
> Note: If a previous installation of Docker using snap was present on the
> system, remove it and also remove docker from snap before reinstallating docker.
> This will avoid [known bugs that falsely report read-only filesystems issues](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52526219/docker-mkdir-read-only-file-system)
> during the build process.

2016-03-22 23:23:05 -05:00
2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
## Usage
2016-12-20 06:05:22 -06:00
2017-03-04 12:11:20 -06:00
To build SONiC installer image and docker images, run the following commands:
2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
```shell
# Ensure the 'overlay' module is loaded on your development system
sudo modprobe overlay
2018-09-05 00:32:46 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
# Enter the source directory
cd sonic-buildimage
2018-01-03 23:45:08 -06:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
# (Optional) Checkout a specific branch. By default, it uses master branch.
# For example, to checkout the branch 201911, use "git checkout 201911"
git checkout [branch_name]
2018-01-03 23:45:08 -06:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
# Execute make init once after cloning the repo,
# or after fetching remote repo with submodule updates
make init
2017-10-24 21:49:37 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
# Execute make configure once to configure ASIC
make configure PLATFORM=[ASIC_VENDOR]
2018-08-11 16:26:12 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
# Build SONiC image with 4 jobs in parallel.
# Note: You can set this higher, but 4 is a good number for most cases
# and is well-tested.
make SONIC_BUILD_JOBS=4 all
```
2021-08-25 06:35:31 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
The supported ASIC vendors are:
2021-08-25 06:35:31 -05:00

2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
## Usage for ARM Architecture
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
```shell
2022-09-06 23:25:44 -05:00
sudo apt-get install --allow-downgrades -y docker-ce=5:18.09.0~3-0~ubuntu-xenial
sudo apt-get install --allow-downgrades -y docker-ce-cli=5:18.09.0~3-0~ubuntu-xenial
```
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
To build Arm32 bit for (ARMHF) platform
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
```shell
# Execute make configure once to configure ASIC and ARCH
make configure PLATFORM=[ASIC_VENDOR] PLATFORM_ARCH=armhf
make target/sonic-[ASIC_VENDER]-armhf.bin
```
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
_example:_
2019-09-11 12:12:10 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
```shell
make configure PLATFORM=marvell-armhf PLATFORM_ARCH=armhf
make target/sonic-marvell-armhf.bin
```
2022-07-21 16:15:16 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
To build Arm32 bit for (ARMHF) Marvell platform on amd64 host for debian buster
using cross-compilation, run the following commands:
2022-07-21 16:15:16 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
```shell
# Execute make configure once to configure ASIC and ARCH for cross-compilation build
2022-07-21 16:15:16 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
NOJESSIE=1 NOSTRETCH=1 BLDENV=buster CROSS_BLDENV=1 \
make configure PLATFORM=marvell-armhf PLATFORM_ARCH=armhf
2022-07-21 16:15:16 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
# Execute Arm32 build using cross-compilation environment
2022-07-21 16:15:16 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
NOJESSIE=1 NOSTRETCH=1 BLDENV=buster CROSS_BLDENV=1 make target/sonic-marvell-armhf.bin
```
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
Running the above Arm32 build using cross-compilation instead of qemu emulator
drastically reduces the build time.
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2021-02-22 11:23:37 -06:00
To build Arm64 bit for platform
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
```shell
# Execute make configure once to configure ASIC and ARCH
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
make configure PLATFORM=[ASIC_VENDOR] PLATFORM_ARCH=arm64
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
# example:
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
make configure PLATFORM=marvell-arm64 PLATFORM_ARCH=arm64
```
2019-07-26 00:06:41 -05:00
2017-12-24 01:34:15 -06:00
**NOTE** :
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
* Recommend reserving at least 100G free space to build one platform
with a single job.
The build process will use more disk if you are setting `SONIC_BUILD_JOBS`
to more than 1.
* If Docker's workspace folder, `/var/lib/docker` ,
resides on a partition without sufficient free space,
you may encounter an error like the following during a Docker container build job:
`/usr/bin/tar: /path/to/sonic-buildimage/< some_file > :
Cannot write: No space left on device`
2023-05-01 16:24:32 -05:00
The solution is to [move the directory ](https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/z-logdata-analytics/5.1.0?topic=compose-relocating-docker-root-directory )
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
to a partition with more free space.
* Use
`http_proxy=[your_proxy] https_proxy=[your_proxy] no_proxy=[your_no_proxy] make`
to enable http(s) proxy in the build process.
* Add your user account to `docker` group and use your user account to make.
`root` or `sudo` are not supported.
The SONiC installer contains all docker images needed.
SONiC uses one image for all devices of a same ASIC vendor.
For Broadcom ASIC, we build ONIE and EOS image.
EOS image is used for Arista devices,
ONIE image is used for all other Broadcom ASIC based devices.
```shell
make configure PLATFORM=broadcom
# build debian stretch required targets
BLDENV=stretch make stretch
# build ONIE image
make target/sonic-broadcom.bin
# build EOS image
make target/sonic-aboot-broadcom.swi
```
2018-08-12 03:20:10 -05:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
You may find the rules/config file useful.
It contains configuration options for the build process,
like adding more verbosity or showing dependencies,
username and password for base image etc.
2016-12-06 17:29:25 -06:00
Every docker image is built and saved to target/ directory.
2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
So, for instance, to build only docker-database, execute:
2016-12-06 17:29:25 -06:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
```shell
make target/docker-database.gz
```
2016-12-06 17:29:25 -06:00
Same goes for debian packages, which are under target/debs/:
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
```shell
make target/debs/swss_1.0.0_amd64.deb
```
2016-12-06 17:29:25 -06:00
2017-02-27 02:13:36 -06:00
Every target has a clean target, so in order to clean swss, execute:
2016-12-06 17:29:25 -06:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
```shell
make target/debs/swss_1.0.0_amd64.deb-clean
```
2016-03-08 13:42:20 -06:00
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
It is recommended to use clean targets to clean all packages that are built together,
like dev packages for instance.
In order to be more familiar with build process and make some changes to it,
it is recommended to read this short [Documentation ](README.buildsystem.md ).

## Build debug dockers and debug SONiC installer image
SONiC build system supports building dockers and ONIE-image with debug tools
and debug symbols, to help with live & core debugging.
For details refer to [SONiC Buildimage Guide ](https://github.com/sonic-net/sonic-buildimage/blob/master/README.buildsystem.md ).
2019-07-13 14:44:46 -05:00
2021-08-25 06:35:31 -05:00
## SAI Version
2022-12-14 09:06:59 -06:00
Please refer to [SONiC roadmap ](https://github.com/sonic-net/SONiC/wiki/Sonic-Roadmap-Planning )
on the SAI version for each SONiC release.
## Notes
* If you are running make for the first time, a sonic-slave-${USER} docker image
will be built automatically.
This may take a while, but it is a one-time action, so please be patient.
* The root user account is disabled. However, the created user can `sudo` .
* The target directory is `./target` , containing the NOS installer image
and docker images.
* sonic-generic.bin: SONiC switch installer image (ONIE compatible)
* sonic-aboot.bin: SONiC switch installer image (Aboot compatible)
* docker-base.gz: base docker image where other docker images are built from,
