Introduction

IEC Type3 mainly focus on Android Application running on edge ARM Cloud architecture with GPU/ vGPU Management. Also, ARM cloud games need to have the basic features of "cloud”, such as flexibility , availability everywhere. Based on cloud infrastructure optimized for android application, providing ARM application services.

This document describes the deployment architecture, construction and use of anbox Android container environment. Describes the environment configuration, code download, build and how to use it

How to use this document

    • Install kubectl on Linux

    Install kubectl binary with curl on Linux

    1. Download the latest release with the command:
      curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/`curl -s https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/stable.txt`/bin/linux/arm64/kubectl
      
      To download a specific version, replace the $(curl -s https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/stable.txt) portion of the command with the specific version.For example, to download version v1.18.0 on Linux, type:
      curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.18.0/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl
      
    2. Make the kubectl binary executable.
      chmod +x ./kubectl
      
    3. Move the binary in to your PATH.
      sudo mv ./kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl
      
    4. Test to ensure the version you installed is up-to-date:
      kubectl version --client

    5. Install Anbox

    Anbox is a free and open-source compatibility layer that aims to allow mobile applications and mobile games developed for Android to run on GNU/Linux distributions. 

    To install Anbox your system need to support snaps. We do not officially support any other distribution method of Anbox at the moment but there are community made packages for various distributions (e.g. Arch Linux). However please keep in mind that the Anbox project can give not support them and its solely in the responsibility of the community packager to keep up with upstream development and update the packaging to any new changes. Please feel free to report still any bugs you encounter as they may not be related to the packaging.If you don’t know about snaps yet head over to snapcraft.io to get an introduction of what snaps are, how to install support for them on your distribution and how to use them.The installation of Anbox consists of two steps.

    1. Install necessary kernel modules
    2. Install the Anbox snap

    1、Install kernel modules

    To install the necessary kernel modules, please read Install Kernel Modules.

    After correct installation you should have two new nodes in your systems /dev directory:

    $ ls -1 /dev/{ashmem,binder}
    /dev/ashmem
    /dev/binder
    

    2、Install the Anbox snap

    The second step will install the Anbox snap from the store and will give you everything you need to run the full Anbox experience.

    Installing the Anbox snap is very simple:

    $ snap install --devmode --beta anbox
    

    If you didn’t logged into the Ubuntu Store yet, the snap command will ask you to use sudo snap … in order to install the snap:

    $ sudo snap install --devmode --beta anbox
    

    At the moment we require the use of –devmode as the Anbox snap is not yet fully confined. Work has started with the upstream snapd project to get support for full confinement.

    As a side effect of using –devmode the snap will not automatically update. In order to update to a newer version you can run:

    $ snap refresh --beta --devmode anbox
    

    Information about the currently available versions of the snap is available via:

    $ snap info anbox

Uninstall Guide

The following method only uses snap to install Anbox. If you want to delete Anbox from the system, you must first delete snap.

Attention:Remove all data stored in the snapshot from the system:

$ snap remove anbox


After deleting the snapshot, you must also delete the installed kernel modules (if installed):

$ sudo apt install ppa-purge

$ sudo ppa-purge ppa:morphis/anbox-support


Upon completion, Anbox will be removed from your system.

Troubleshooting

  • If kernels modules successfully loaded, service is running fine, and yet Anbox won't launch with Application manager service is not running yet. Check for the message No space left on device - Failed to enter cgroup in /var/lib/anbox/logs/container.log, you may be running into see this issue: https://github.com/lxc/lxd/issues/6257
  • If container started failed

Before the container is started, session-manager needs to be started on the host to start x, input, adb and other related services, and then the container may started successful.

  • To build the Anbox runtime itself there is nothing special to know. but when we use cmake as build system. A few build dependencies need to be present on your host system:

    * libdbus
    * google-mock
    * google-test
    * libboost
    * libboost-filesystem
    * libboost-log
    * libboost-iostreams
    * libboost-program-options
    * libboost-system
    * libboost-test
    * libboost-thread
    * libcap
    * libsystemd
    * mesa (libegl1, libgles2)
    * libglm
    * libsdl2
    * libprotobuf
    * protobuf-compiler
    * python2
    * lxc (>= 3.0)
