7.容器运行时接口(CRI)

容器运行时接口(CRI)

容器运行时接口(Container Runtime Interface,简称CRICRI中定义了 容器镜像 的服务的接口,因为容器运行时与镜像的生命周期是彼此隔离的,因此需要定义两个服务。该接口使用 Protocol Buffer,基于 gRPC,在Kubernetes v1.10 +版本中是在 pkg/kubelet/apis/cri/runtime/v1alpha2api.proto 中定义的。

CRI架构

Container Runtime实现了CRI gRPC Server,包括 RuntimeServiceImageService。该gRPC Server需要监听本地的Unix socket,而kubelet则作为gRPC Client运行。

启用CRI

除非集成了rktnetes,否则CRI都是被默认启用了,从Kubernetes 1.7版本开始,旧的预集成的docker CRI已经被移除。

要想启用CRI只需要在kubelet的启动参数重传入此参数:--container-runtime-endpoint 远程运行时服务的端点。当前Linux上支持unix socketwindows上支持tcp。例如:unix:///var/run/dockershim.socktcp://localhost:373,默认是 unix:///var/run/dockershim.sock,即默认使用本地的docker作为容器运行时。

CRI接口

Kubernetes 1.9中的CRI接口在 api.proto 中的定义如下:

// Runtime service defines the public APIs for remote container runtimes
service RuntimeService {
    // Version returns the runtime name, runtime version, and runtime API version.
    rpc Version (VersionRequest) returns (VersionResponse) {}

    // RunPodSandbox creates and starts a pod-level sandbox. Runtimes must ensure
    //the sandbox is in the ready state on success.
    rpc RunPodSandbox (RunPodSandboxRequest) returns (RunPodSandboxResponse) {}
    // StopPodSandbox stops any running process that is part of the sandbox and
    //reclaims network resources (e.g., IP addresses) allocated to the sandbox.
    // If there are any running containers in the sandbox, they must be forcibly
    //terminated.
    // This call is idempotent, and must not return an error if all relevant
    //resources have already been reclaimed. kubelet will call StopPodSandbox
    //at least once before calling RemovePodSandbox. It will also attempt to
    //reclaim resources eagerly, as soon as a sandbox is not needed. Hence,
    //multiple StopPodSandbox calls are expected.
    rpc StopPodSandbox (StopPodSandboxRequest) returns (StopPodSandboxResponse) {}
    // RemovePodSandbox removes the sandbox. If there are any running containers
    //in the sandbox, they must be forcibly terminated and removed.
    // This call is idempotent, and must not return an error if the sandbox has
    //already been removed.
    rpc RemovePodSandbox (RemovePodSandboxRequest) returns (RemovePodSandboxResponse) {}
    // PodSandboxStatus returns the status of the PodSandbox. If the PodSandbox is not
    //present, returns an error.
    rpc PodSandboxStatus (PodSandboxStatusRequest) returns (PodSandboxStatusResponse) {}
    // ListPodSandbox returns a list of PodSandboxes.
    rpc ListPodSandbox (ListPodSandboxRequest) returns (ListPodSandboxResponse) {}

    // CreateContainer creates a new container in specified PodSandbox
    rpc CreateContainer (CreateContainerRequest) returns (CreateContainerResponse) {}
    // StartContainer starts the container.
    rpc StartContainer (StartContainerRequest) returns (StartContainerResponse) {}
    // StopContainer stops a running container with a grace period (i.e., timeout).
    // This call is idempotent, and must not return an error if the container has
    //already been stopped.
    // TODO: what must the runtime do after the grace period is reached?
    rpc StopContainer (StopContainerRequest) returns (StopContainerResponse) {}
    // RemoveContainer removes the container. If the container is running, the
    //container must be forcibly removed.
    // This call is idempotent, and must not return an error if the container has
    //already been removed.
    rpc RemoveContainer (RemoveContainerRequest) returns (RemoveContainerResponse) {}
    // ListContainers lists all containers by filters.
    rpc ListContainers (ListContainersRequest) returns (ListContainersResponse) {}
    // ContainerStatus returns status of the container. If the container is not
    //present, returns an error.
    rpc ContainerStatus (ContainerStatusRequest) returns (ContainerStatusResponse) {}
    // UpdateContainerResources updates ContainerConfig of the container.
    rpc UpdateContainerResources (UpdateContainerResourcesRequest) returns (UpdateContainerResourcesResponse) {}

    // ExecSync runs a command in a container synchronously.
    rpc ExecSync (ExecSyncRequest) returns (ExecSyncResponse) {}
    // Exec prepares a streaming endpoint to execute a command in the container.
    rpc Exec (ExecRequest) returns (ExecResponse) {}
    // Attach prepares a streaming endpoint to attach to a running container.
    rpc Attach (AttachRequest) returns (AttachResponse) {}
    // PortForward prepares a streaming endpoint to forward ports from a PodSandbox.
    rpc PortForward (PortForwardRequest) returns (PortForwardResponse) {}

    // ContainerStats returns stats of the container. If the container does not
    //exist, the call returns an error.
    rpc ContainerStats (ContainerStatsRequest) returns (ContainerStatsResponse) {}
    // ListContainerStats returns stats of all running containers.
    rpc ListContainerStats (ListContainerStatsRequest) returns (ListContainerStatsResponse) {}

    // UpdateRuntimeConfig updates the runtime configuration based on the given request.
    rpc UpdateRuntimeConfig (UpdateRuntimeConfigRequest) returns (UpdateRuntimeConfigResponse) {}

    // Status returns the status of the runtime.
    rpc Status (StatusRequest) returns (StatusResponse) {}}

// ImageService defines the public APIs for managing images.
service ImageService {
    // ListImages lists existing images.
    rpc ListImages (ListImagesRequest) returns (ListImagesResponse) {}
    // ImageStatus returns the status of the image. If the image is not
    //present, returns a response with ImageStatusResponse.Image set to
    //nil.
    rpc ImageStatus (ImageStatusRequest) returns (ImageStatusResponse) {}
    // PullImage pulls an image with authentication config.
    rpc PullImage (PullImageRequest) returns (PullImageResponse) {}
    // RemoveImage removes the image.
    // This call is idempotent, and must not return an error if the image has
    //already been removed.
    rpc RemoveImage (RemoveImageRequest) returns (RemoveImageResponse) {}
    // ImageFSInfo returns information of the filesystem that is used to store images.
    rpc ImageFsInfo (ImageFsInfoRequest) returns (ImageFsInfoResponse) {}}

这其中包含了两个gRPC服务:

  • RuntimeService:容器和Sandbox运行时管理。
  • ImageService:提供了从镜像仓库拉取、查看、和移除镜像的RPC

当前支持的CRI后端

我们最初在使用Kubernetes时通常会默认使用Docker作为容器运行时,其实从Kubernetes 1.5开始已经支持CRI,通过CRI接口可以指定使用其它容器运行时作为Pod的后端,目前支持CRI的后端有:

  • cri-ocri-oKubernetesCRI标准的实现,并且允许Kubernetes间接使用OCI兼容的容器运行时,可以把cri-o看成Kubernetes使用OCI兼容的容器运行时的中间层。
  • cri-containerd:基于 ContainerdKubernetes CRI实现
  • rkt:由CoreOS主推的用来跟docker抗衡的容器运行时
  • frakti:基于hypervisorCRI
  • dockerKuberentes最初就开始支持的容器运行时,目前还没完全从kubelet中解耦,Docker公司同时推广了 OCI 标准

CRI是由 SIG-Node 来维护的。

当前通过CRI-O间接支持CRI的后端

当前同样存在一些只实现了 OCI 标准的容器,但是它们可以通过CRI-O来作为Kubernetes的容器运行时。CRI-OKubernetesCRI标准的实现,并且允许Kubernetes间接使用OCI兼容的容器运行时。

  • Clear Containers:由Intel推出的兼容OCI容器运行时,可以通过CRI-O来兼容CRI
  • Kata Containers:符合OCI规范,可以通过CRI-OContainerd CRI Plugin 来兼容CRI
  • gVisor:由谷歌推出的容器运行时沙箱(Experimental),可以通过CRI-O来兼容CRI
