Description

The Container Runtime Interface (CRI) provided by Kubernetes defines container and image service APIs. iSulad uses the CRI to interconnect with Kubernetes.

Since the container runtime is isolated from the image lifecycle, two services need to be defined. This API is defined by using Protocol Buffer based on gRPC.

The current CRI version is v1alpha1. For official API description, access the following link:

https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/release-1.14/pkg/kubelet/apis/cri/runtime/v1alpha2/api.proto

iSulad uses the API description file of version 1.14 used by Pass, which is slightly different from the official API description file. API description in this document prevails.

NOTE: The listening IP address of the CRI WebSocket streaming service is 127.0.0.1 and the port number is 10350. The port number can be configured in the --websocket-server-listening-port command or in the daemon.json configuration file.

RunPodSandbox

Prototype

rpc RunPodSandbox(RunPodSandboxRequest) returns (RunPodSandboxResponse) {}

Description

This API is used to create and start a PodSandbox. If the PodSandbox is successfully run, the sandbox is in the ready state.

Precautions

1. The default image for starting a sandbox is rnd-dockerhub.huawei.com/library/pause-${machine}:3.0 where ${machine} indicates the architecture. On x86_64, the value of machine is amd64. On ARM64, the value of machine is aarch64. Currently, only the amd64 or aarch64 image can be downloaded from the rnd-dockerhub registry. If the image does not exist on the host, ensure that the host can download the image from the rnd-dockerhub registry. If you want to use another image, refer to pod-sandbox-image in the iSulad Deployment Configuration.
2. The container name is obtained from fields in PodSandboxMetadata and separated by underscores (_). Therefore, the metadata cannot contain underscores (_). Otherwise, the ListPodSandbox API cannot be used for query even when the sandbox is running successfully.

Parameters

Return Values

StopPodSandbox

Prototype

rpc StopPodSandbox(StopPodSandboxRequest) returns (StopPodSandboxResponse) {}

Description

This API is used to stop PodSandboxes and sandbox containers, and reclaim the network resources (such as IP addresses) allocated to a sandbox. If any running container belongs to the sandbox, the container must be forcibly stopped.

Parameters

Return Values

RemovePodSandbox

Prototype

rpc RemovePodSandbox(RemovePodSandboxRequest) returns (RemovePodSandboxResponse) {}

Description

This API is used to delete a sandbox. If any running container belongs to the sandbox, the container must be forcibly stopped and deleted. If the sandbox has been deleted, no errors will be returned.

Precautions

1. When a sandbox is deleted, network resources of the sandbox are not deleted. Before deleting a pod, you must call StopPodSandbox to clear network resources. Ensure that StopPodSandbox is called at least once before deleting the sandbox.
2. Ifa sanbox is deleted and containers in the sandbox is not deleted successfully, you need to manually delete the containers.

Parameters

Return Values

PodSandboxStatus

Prototype

rpc PodSandboxStatus(PodSandboxStatusRequest) returns (PodSandboxStatusResponse) {}

Description

This API is used to query the sandbox status. If the sandbox does not exist, an error is returned.

Parameters

Return Values

CreateContainer

grpc::Status CreateContainer(grpc::ServerContext *context, const runtime::CreateContainerRequest *request, runtime::CreateContainerResponse *reply) {}

Description

This API is used to create a container in the PodSandbox.

Precautions

• sandbox_config inCreateContainerRequest is the same as the configuration transferred to RunPodSandboxRequest to create a PodSandbox. It is transferred again for reference only. PodSandboxConfig must remain unchanged throughout the lifecycle of a pod.
• The container name is obtained from fields in ContainerMetadata and separated by underscores (_). Therefore, the metadata cannot contain underscores (_). Otherwise, the ListContainers API cannot be used for query even when the sandbox is running successfully.
• CreateContainerRequest does not contain the runtime_handler field. The runtime type of the container is the same as that of the corresponding sandbox.

Parameters

Supplement

Description

This API is used to take over the init process of a container through the gRPC communication method, that is, obtain URLs from the CRI server, and then use the obtained URLs to establish a long connection to the WebSocket server, implementing the interaction with the container. Only containers whose runtime is of the LCR type are supported.

Parameters

Return Values

ContainerStats

Prototype

rpc ContainerStats(ContainerStatsRequest) returns (ContainerStatsResponse) {}

Description

This API is used to return information about resources occupied by a container. Only containers whose runtime is of the LCR type are supported.

Parameters

Return Values

None

Status

Prototype

rpc Status(StatusRequest) returns (StatusResponse) {};

Description

This API is used to obtain the network status of the runtime and pod. Obtaining the network status will trigger the update of network configuration. Only containers whose runtime is of the LCR type are supported.

Precautions

Parameters

Return Values

Image Service

The service provides the gRPC API for pulling, viewing, and removing images from the registry.

ListImages

Prototype

rpc ListImages(ListImagesRequest) returns (ListImagesResponse) {}

Description

This API is used to list existing image information.

Precautions

This is a unified API. You can run the cri images command to query embedded images. However, embedded images are not standard OCI images. Therefore, query results have the following restrictions:

• An embedded image does not have an image ID. Therefore, the value of image ID is the config digest of the image.
• An embedded image has only config digest, and it does not comply with the OCI image specifications. Therefore, the value of digest cannot be displayed.

Parameters

Return Values

ImageStatus

Prototype

rpc ImageStatus(ImageStatusRequest) returns (ImageStatusResponse) {}

Description

The API is used to query the information about a specified image.

Precautions

1. If the image to be queried does not exist, ImageStatusResponse is returned and Image is set to nil in the return value.
2. This is a unified API. Since embedded images do not comply with the OCI image specifications and do not contain required fields, the images cannot be queried by using this API.

Parameters

Return Values

PullImage

Prototype

 rpc PullImage(PullImageRequest) returns (PullImageResponse) {}

Description

This API is used to download images.

Precautions

Currently, you can download public images, and use the username, password, and auth information to download private images. The server_address, identity_token, and registry_token fields in authconfig cannot be configured.

Parameters

Return Values

RemoveImage

Prototype

rpc RemoveImage(RemoveImageRequest) returns (RemoveImageResponse) {}

Description

This API is used to delete specified images.

Precautions

This is a unified API. Since embedded images do not comply with the OCI image specifications and do not contain required fields, you cannot delete embedded images by using this API and the image ID.

Parameters

Return Values

None

ImageFsInfo

Prototype

rpc ImageFsInfo(ImageFsInfoRequest) returns (ImageFsInfoResponse) {}

Description

This API is used to query the information about the file system that stores images.

Precautions

Queried results are the file system information in the image metadata.

Parameters

None

Return Values

Constraints

1. If log_directory is configured in the PodSandboxConfig parameter when a sandbox is created, log_path must be specified in ContainerConfig when all containers that belong to the sandbox are created. Otherwise, the containers may not be started or deleted by using the CRI.

   The actual value of LOGPATH of containers is log_directory/log_path. If log_path is not set, the final value of LOGPATH is changed to log_directory.

   • If the path does not exist, iSulad will create a soft link pointing to the actual path of container logs when starting a container. Then log_directory becomes a soft link. There are two cases:

     1. In the first case, if log_path is not configured for other containers in the sandbox, log_directory will be deleted and point to log_path of the newly started container. As a result, logs of the first started container point to logs of the later started container.
     2. In the second case, if log_path is configured for other containers in the sandbox, the value of LOGPATH of the container is log_directory/log_path. Because log_directory is a soft link, the creation fails when log_directory/log_path is used as the soft link to point to the actual path of container logs.

   • If the path exists, iSulad will attempt to delete the path (non-recursive) when starting a container. If the path is a folder path containing content, the deletion fails. As a result, the soft link fails to be created, the container fails to be started, and the same error occurs when the container is going to be deleted.

2. If log_directory is configured in the PodSandboxConfig parameter when a sandbox is created, and log_path is specified in ContainerConfig when a container is created, the final value of LOGPATH is log_directory/log_path. iSulad does not recursively create LOGPATH, therefore, you must ensure that dirname(LOGPATH) exists, that is, the upper-level path of the final log file path exists.

3. If log_directory is configured in the PodSandboxConfig parameter when a sandbox is created, and the same log_path is specified in ContainerConfig when multiple containers are created, or if containers in different sandboxes point to the same LOGPATH, the latest container log path will overwrite the previous path after the containers are started successfully.

4. If the image content in the remote registry changes and the original image is stored in the local host, the name and tag of the original image are changed to none when you call the CRI Pull image API to download the image again.

   An example is as follows:

   Locally stored images:

   IMAGE                                        TAG                 IMAGE ID            SIZE
   rnd-dockerhub.huawei.com/pproxyisulad/test   latest              99e59f495ffaa       753kB
   

   After the rnd-dockerhub.huawei.com/pproxyisulad/test:latest image in the remote registry is updated and downloaded again:

   IMAGE                                        TAG                 IMAGE ID            SIZE
   <none>                                       <none>              99e59f495ffaa       753kB
   rnd-dockerhub.huawei.com/pproxyisulad/test   latest              d8233ab899d41       1.42MB
   

   Run the isula images command. The value of REF is displayed as -.

   REF                                               IMAGE ID               CREATED              SIZE
