+## License
+
+The code is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license.
+See [the license file](LICENSE) for further details.
+
+## Platform support
+
+Kata Containers currently runs on 64-bit systems supporting the following
+technologies:
+
+| Architecture | Virtualization technology |
+|-|-|
+| `x86_64`, `amd64` | [Intel](https://www.intel.com) VT-x, AMD SVM |
+| `aarch64` ("`arm64`")| [ARM](https://www.arm.com) Hyp |
+| `ppc64le` | [IBM](https://www.ibm.com) Power |
+| `s390x` | [IBM](https://www.ibm.com) Z & LinuxONE SIE |
+
+### Hardware requirements
+
+The [Kata Containers runtime](src/runtime) provides a command to
+determine if your host system is capable of running and creating a
+Kata Container:
+
+```bash
+$ kata-runtime check
+```
+
+> **Notes:**
+>
+> - This command runs a number of checks including connecting to the
+>   network to determine if a newer release of Kata Containers is
+>   available on GitHub. If you do not wish this to check to run, add
+>   the `--no-network-checks` option.
+>
+> - By default, only a brief success / failure message is printed.
+>   If more details are needed, the `--verbose` flag can be used to display the
+>   list of all the checks performed.
+>
+> - If the command is run as the `root` user additional checks are
+>   run (including checking if another incompatible hypervisor is running).
+>   When running as `root`, network checks are automatically disabled.

 # Architectural limitations
 
 This section lists items that might not be fixed due to fundamental
 architectural differences between "soft containers" (i.e. traditional Linux*
 containers) and those based on VMs.
 
-## Networking limitations
-
-### Support for joining an existing VM network
-
-Docker supports the ability for containers to join another containers
-namespace with the `docker run --net=containers` syntax. This allows
-multiple containers to share a common network namespace and the network
-interfaces placed in the network namespace.  Kata Containers does not
-support network namespace sharing. If a Kata Container is setup to
-share the network namespace of a `runc` container, the runtime
-effectively takes over all the network interfaces assigned to the
-namespace and binds them to the VM. Consequently, the `runc` container loses
-its network connectivity.
-
-### docker --net=host
-
-Docker host network support (`docker --net=host run`) is not supported.
-It is not possible to directly access the host networking configuration
-from within the VM.
-
-The `--net=host` option can still be used with `runc` containers and
-inter-mixed with running Kata Containers, thus enabling use of `--net=host`
-when necessary.
-
-It should be noted, currently passing the `--net=host` option into a
-Kata Container may result in the Kata Container networking setup
-modifying, re-configuring and therefore possibly breaking the host
-networking setup. Do not use `--net=host` with Kata Containers.
-
-### docker run --link
-
-The runtime does not support the `docker run --link` command. This
-command is now deprecated by docker and we have no intention of adding support.
-Equivalent functionality can be achieved with the newer docker networking commands.
-
-See more documentation at
-[docs.docker.com](https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/networking/default_network/dockerlinks/).

+# Unit Test Advice
+
+## Overview
+
+This document offers advice on writing a Unit Test (UT) in
+[Golang](https://golang.org) and [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org).
+
+## General advice
+
+### Unit test strategies
+
+#### Positive and negative tests
+
+Always add positive tests (where success is expected) *and* negative
+tests (where failure is expected).
+
+#### Boundary condition tests
+
+Try to add unit tests that exercise boundary conditions such as:
+
+- Missing values (`null` or `None`).
+- Empty strings and huge strings.
+- Empty (or uninitialised) complex data structures
+  (such as lists, vectors and hash tables).
+- Common numeric values (such as `-1`, `0`, `1` and the minimum and
+  maximum values).
+
+#### Test unusual values
+
+Also always consider "unusual" input values such as:
+
+- String values containing spaces, Unicode characters, special
+  characters, escaped characters or null bytes.
+
+  > **Note:** Consider these unusual values in prefix, infix and
+  > suffix position.
+
+- String values that cannot be converted into numeric values or which
+  contain invalid structured data (such as invalid JSON).
+
+#### Other types of tests
+
+If the code requires other forms of testing (such as stress testing,
+fuzz testing and integration testing), raise a GitHub issue and
+reference it on the issue you are using for the main work. This
+ensures the test team are aware that a new test is required.
+
+### Test environment
+
+#### Create unique files and directories
+
+Ensure your tests do not write to a fixed file or directory. This can
+cause problems when running multiple tests simultaneously and also
+when running tests after a previous test run failure.
+
+#### Assume parallel testing
+
+Always assume your tests will be run *in parallel*. If this is
+problematic for a test, force it to run in isolation using the
+`serial_test` crate for Rust code for example.
+
+### Running
+
+Ensure you run the unit tests and they all pass before raising a PR.
+Ideally do this on different distributions on different architectures
+to maximise coverage (and so minimise surprises when your code runs in
+the CI).
+
+## Assertions
+
+### Golang assertions
+
+Use the `testify` assertions package to create a new assertion object as this
+keeps the test code free from distracting `if` tests:
+
+```go
+func TestSomething(t *testing.T) {
+    assert := assert.New(t)
+
+    err := doSomething()
+    assert.NoError(err)
+}
+```
+
+### Rust assertions
+
+Use the standard set of `assert!()` macros.
+
+## Table driven tests
+
+Try to write tests using a table-based approach. This allows you to distill
+the logic into a compact table (rather than spreading the tests across
+multiple test functions). It also makes it easy to cover all the
+interesting boundary conditions:
+
+### Golang table driven tests
+
+Assume the following function:
+
+```go
+// The function under test.
+//
+// Accepts a string and an integer and returns the
+// result of sticking them together separated by a dash as a string.
+func joinParamsWithDash(str string, num int) (string, error) {
+    if str == "" {
+        return "", errors.New("string cannot be blank")
+    }
+
+    if num <= 0 {
+        return "", errors.New("number must be positive")
+    }
+
+    return fmt.Sprintf("%s-%d", str, num), nil
+}
+```
+
+A table driven approach to testing it:
+
+```go
+import (
+    "testing"
+    "github.com/stretchr/testify/assert"
+)
+
+func TestJoinParamsWithDash(t *testing.T) {
+    assert := assert.New(t)
+
+    // Type used to hold function parameters and expected results.
+    type testData struct {
+        param1         string
+        param2         int
+        expectedResult string
+        expectError    bool
+    }
+
+    // List of tests to run including the expected results
+    data := []testData{
+        // Failure scenarios
+        {"", -1, "", true},
+        {"", 0, "", true},
+        {"", 1, "", true},
+        {"foo", 0, "", true},
+        {"foo", -1, "", true},
+
+        // Success scenarios
+        {"foo", 1, "foo-1", false},
+        {"bar", 42, "bar-42", false},
+    }
+
+    // Run the tests
+    for i, d := range data {
+        // Create a test-specific string that is added to each assert
+        // call. It will be displayed if any assert test fails.
+        msg := fmt.Sprintf("test[%d]: %+v", i, d)
+
+        // Call the function under test
+        result, err := joinParamsWithDash(d.param1, d.param2)

+            // performing additional checks.

+
+        assert.NoError(err, msg)

+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Temporary files
+
+Use `t.TempDir()` to create temporary directory. The directory created by
+`t.TempDir()` is automatically removed when the test and all its subtests
+complete.
+
+### Golang temporary files
+
+```go
+func TestSomething(t *testing.T) {
+    assert := assert.New(t)
+
+    // Create a temporary directory
+    tmpdir := t.TempDir()
+
+    // Add test logic that will use the tmpdir here...
+}
+```
+
+### Rust temporary files
+
+Use the `tempfile` crate which allows files and directories to be deleted
+automatically:
+
+```rust
+#[cfg(test)]
+mod tests {
+    use tempfile::tempdir;
+
+    #[test]
+    fn test_something() {
+
+        // Create a temporary directory (which will be deleted automatically
+        let dir = tempdir().expect("failed to create tmpdir");
+
+        let filename = dir.path().join("file.txt");
+

+## Test user
+
+[Unit tests are run *twice*](https://github.com/kata-containers/tests/blob/main/.ci/go-test.sh):
+
+- as the current user
+- as the `root` user (if different to the current user)
+
+When writing a test consider which user should run it; even if the code the
+test is exercising runs as `root`, it may be necessary to *only* run the test
+as a non-`root` for the test to be meaningful. Add appropriate skip
+guards around code that requires `root` and non-`root` so that the test
+will run if the correct type of user is detected and skipped if not.
+
+### Run Golang tests as a different user
+
+The main repository has the most comprehensive set of skip abilities. See:
+
+- [`katatestutils`](../src/runtime/pkg/katatestutils)
+
+### Run Rust tests as a different user
+
+One method is to use the `nix` crate along with some custom macros:
+
+```
+#[cfg(test)]
+mod tests {
+    #[allow(unused_macros)]
+    macro_rules! skip_if_root {
+        () => {
+            if nix::unistd::Uid::effective().is_root() {
+                println!("INFO: skipping {} which needs non-root", module_path!());
+                return;
+            }
+        };
+    }
+
+    #[allow(unused_macros)]
+    macro_rules! skip_if_not_root {
+        () => {
+            if !nix::unistd::Uid::effective().is_root() {
+                println!("INFO: skipping {} which needs root", module_path!());
+                return;
+            }
+        };
+    }
+
+    #[test]
+    fn test_that_must_be_run_as_root() {
+        // Not running as the superuser, so skip.
+        skip_if_not_root!();
+
+        // Run test *iff* the user running the test is root
+
+        // ...
+    }
+}

+# Code PR Advice
+
+Before raising a PR containing code changes, we suggest you consider
+the following to ensure a smooth and fast process.
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> - All the advice in this document is optional. However, if the
+>   advice provided is not followed, there is no guarantee your PR
+>   will be merged.
+>
+> - All the check tools will be run automatically on your PR by the CI.
+>   However, if you run them locally first, there is a much better
+>   chance of a successful initial CI run.
+
+## Assumptions
+
+This document assumes you have already read (and in the case of the
+code of conduct agreed to):
+
+- The [Kata Containers code of conduct](https://github.com/kata-containers/community/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md).
+- The [Kata Containers contributing guide](https://github.com/kata-containers/community/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md).
+
+## Code
+
+### Architectures
+
+Do not write architecture-specific code if it is possible to write the
+code generically.
+
+### General advice
+
+- Do not write code to impress: instead write code that is easy to read and understand.
+
+- Always consider which user will run the code. Try to minimise
+  the privileges the code requires.
+
+### Comments
+
+Always add comments if the intent of the code is not obvious. However,
+try to avoid comments if the code could be made clearer (for example
+by using more meaningful variable names).
+
+### Constants
+
+Don't embed magic numbers and strings in functions, particularly if
+they are used repeatedly.
+
+Create constants at the top of the file instead.
+
+### Copyright and license
+
+Ensure all new files contain a copyright statement and an SPDX license
+identifier in the comments at the top of the file.
+
+### FIXME and TODO
+
+If the code contains areas that are not fully implemented, make this
+clear a comment which provides a link to a GitHub issue that provides
+further information.
+
+Do not just rely on comments in this case though: if possible, return
+a "`BUG: feature X not implemented see {bug-url}`" type error.
+
+### Functions
+
+- Keep functions relatively short (less than 100 lines is a good "rule of thumb").
+
+- Document functions if the parameters, return value or general intent
+  of the function is not obvious.
+
+- Always return errors where possible.
+
+  Do not discard error return values from the functions this function
+  calls.
+
+### Logging
+
+- Don't use multiple log calls when a single log call could be used.
+
+- Use structured logging where possible to allow
+  [standard tooling](https://github.com/kata-containers/tests/tree/main/cmd/log-parser)
+  be able to extract the log fields.
+
+### Names
+
+Give functions, macros and variables clear and meaningful names.
+
+### Structures
+
+#### Golang structures
+
+Unlike Rust, Go does not enforce that all structure members be set.
+This has lead to numerous bugs in the past where code like the
+following is used:
+
+```go
+type Foo struct {
+    Key   string
+    Value string
+}
+
+// BUG: Key not set, but nobody noticed! ;(
+let foo1 = Foo {
+    Value: "foo",
+}
+```
+
+A much safer approach is to create a constructor function to enforce
+integrity:
+
+```go
+type Foo struct {
+    Key   string
+    Value string
+}
+
+func NewFoo(key, value string) (*Foo, error) {
+    if key == "" {
+        return nil, errors.New("Foo needs a key")
+    }
+
+    if value == "" {
+        return nil, errors.New("Foo needs a value")
+    }
+
+    return &Foo{
+        Key:   key,
+        Value: value,
+    }, nil
+}
+
+func testFoo() error {
+    // BUG: Key not set, but nobody noticed! ;(
+    badFoo := Foo{Value: "value"}
+
+    // Ok - the constructor performs needed validation
+    goodFoo, err := NewFoo("name", "value")
+    if err != nil {
+        return err
+    }
+
+    return nil
+```
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> The above is just an example. The *safest* approach would be to move
+> `NewFoo()` into a separate package and make `Foo` and it's elements
+> private. The compiler would then enforce the use of the constructor
+> to guarantee correctly defined objects.
+
+
+### Tracing
+
+Consider if the code needs to create a new
+[trace span](./tracing.md).
+
+Ensure any new trace spans added to the code are completed.
+
+## Tests
+
+### Unit tests
+
+Where possible, code changes should be accompanied by unit tests.
+
+Consider using the standard
+[table-based approach](Unit-Test-Advice.md)
+as it encourages you to make functions small and simple, and also
+allows you to think about what types of value to test.
+
+### Other categories of test
+
+Raised a GitHub issue in the
+[`tests`](https://github.com/kata-containers/tests) repository that
+explains what sort of test is required along with as much detail as
+possible. Ensure the original issue is referenced on the `tests` issue.
+
+### Unsafe code
+
+#### Rust language specifics
+
+Minimise the use of `unsafe` blocks in Rust code and since it is
+potentially dangerous always write [unit tests][#unit-tests]
+for this code where possible.
+
+`expect()` and `unwrap()` will cause the code to panic on error.
+Prefer to return a `Result` on error rather than using these calls to
+allow the caller to deal with the error condition.
+
+The table below lists the small number of cases where use of
+`expect()` and `unwrap()` are permitted:
+
+| Area | Rationale for permitting |
+|-|-|
+| In test code (the `tests` module) | Panics will cause the test to fail, which is desirable. |
+| `lazy_static!()` | This magic macro cannot "return" a value as it runs before `main()`. |
+| `defer!()` | Similar to golang's `defer()` but doesn't allow the use of `?`. |
+| `tokio::spawn(async move {})` | Cannot currently return a `Result` from an `async move` closure. |
+| If an explicit test is performed before the `unwrap()` / `expect()` | *"Just about acceptable"*, but not ideal `[*]` |
+| `Mutex.lock()` | Almost unrecoverable if failed in the lock acquisition |
+
+
+`[*]` - There can lead to bad *future* code: consider what would
+happen if the explicit test gets dropped in the future. This is easier
+to happen if the test and the extraction of the value are two separate
+operations. In summary, this strategy can introduce an insidious
+maintenance issue.
+
+## Documentation
+
+### General requirements
+
+- All new features should be accompanied by documentation explaining:
+
+  - What the new feature does
+
+  - Why it is useful
+
+  - How to use the feature
+
+  - Any known issues or limitations
+
+    Links should be provided to GitHub issues tracking the issues
+
+- The [documentation requirements document](Documentation-Requirements.md)
+  explains how the project formats documentation.
+

 4.5MB per [POD][2]. In a high density deployment this could add up to GBs of
 memory that could have been used to host more PODs. When we talk about density
 each kilobyte matters and it might be the decisive factor between run another

-amount of [`kata-proxy`][3] processes will be running and consuming for around
-2250MB of RAM. Before making the decision not to use VSOCKs, you should ask
+POD or not. Before making the decision not to use VSOCKs, you should ask
 yourself, how many more containers can run with the memory RAM consumed by the
 Kata proxies?
 
 ### Reliability
 
-[`kata-proxy`][3] is in charge of multiplexing the connections between virtual
-machine and host processes, if it dies all connections get broken. For example
-if you have a [POD][2] with 10 containers running, if `kata-proxy` dies it would
-be impossible to contact your containers, though they would still be running.
 Since communication via VSOCKs is direct, the only way to lose communication
 with the containers is if the VM itself or the `containerd-shim-kata-v2` dies, if this happens
 the containers are removed automatically.

-# Kata Containers Architecture
-
-## Overview
-
-This is an architectural overview of Kata Containers, based on the 2.0 release.
-
-The primary deliverable of the Kata Containers project is a CRI friendly shim. There is also a CRI friendly library API behind them.
-
-The [Kata Containers runtime](../../src/runtime)
-is compatible with the [OCI](https://github.com/opencontainers) [runtime specification](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec)
-and therefore works seamlessly with the [Kubernetes\* Container Runtime Interface (CRI)](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/sig-node/container-runtime-interface.md)
-through the [CRI-O\*](https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/cri-o) and
-[Containerd\*](https://github.com/containerd/containerd) implementation.
-
-Kata Containers creates a QEMU\*/KVM virtual machine for pod that `kubelet` (Kubernetes) creates respectively.
-
-The [`containerd-shim-kata-v2` (shown as `shimv2` from this point onwards)](../../src/runtime/cmd/containerd-shim-kata-v2/)
-is the Kata Containers entrypoint, which
-implements the [Containerd Runtime V2 (Shim API)](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/tree/master/runtime/v2) for Kata.
-
-Before `shimv2` (as done in [Kata Containers 1.x releases](https://github.com/kata-containers/runtime/releases)), we need to create a `containerd-shim` and a [`kata-shim`](https://github.com/kata-containers/shim) for each container and the Pod sandbox itself, plus an optional [`kata-proxy`](https://github.com/kata-containers/proxy) when VSOCK is not available. With `shimv2`, Kubernetes can launch Pod and OCI compatible containers with one shim (the `shimv2`) per Pod instead of `2N+1` shims, and no standalone `kata-proxy` process even if no VSOCK is available.
-
-![Kubernetes integration with shimv2](arch-images/shimv2.svg)
-
-The container process is then spawned by
-[`kata-agent`](../../src/agent), an agent process running
-as a daemon inside the virtual machine. `kata-agent` runs a [`ttRPC`](https://github.com/containerd/ttrpc-rust) server in
-the guest using a VIRTIO serial or VSOCK interface which QEMU exposes as a socket
-file on the host. `shimv2` uses a `ttRPC` protocol to communicate with
-the agent. This protocol allows the runtime to send container management
-commands to the agent. The protocol is also used to carry the I/O streams (stdout,
-stderr, stdin) between the containers and the manage engines (e.g. CRI-O or containerd).
-
-For any given container, both the init process and all potentially executed
-commands within that container, together with their related I/O streams, need
-to go through the VSOCK interface exported by QEMU.
-
-The container workload, that is, the actual OCI bundle rootfs, is exported from the
-host to the virtual machine.  In the case where a block-based graph driver is
-configured, `virtio-scsi` will be used. In all other cases a `virtio-fs` VIRTIO mount point
-will be used. `kata-agent` uses this mount point as the root filesystem for the
-container processes.
-
-## Virtualization
-
-How Kata Containers maps container concepts to virtual machine technologies, and how this is realized in the multiple
-hypervisors and VMMs that Kata supports is described within the [virtualization documentation](./virtualization.md)
-
-## Guest assets
-
-The hypervisor will launch a virtual machine which includes a minimal guest kernel
-and a guest image.
-
-### Guest kernel
-
-The guest kernel is passed to the hypervisor and used to boot the virtual
-machine. The default kernel provided in Kata Containers is highly optimized for
-kernel boot time and minimal memory footprint, providing only those services
-required by a container workload. This is based on a very current upstream Linux
-kernel.
-
-### Guest image
-
-Kata Containers supports both an `initrd` and `rootfs` based minimal guest image.
-
-#### Root filesystem image
-
-The default packaged root filesystem image, sometimes referred to as the "mini O/S", is a
-highly optimized container bootstrap system based on [Clear Linux](https://clearlinux.org/). It provides an extremely minimal environment and
-has a highly optimized boot path.
-
-The only services running in the context of the mini O/S are the init daemon
-(`systemd`) and the [Agent](#agent). The real workload the user wishes to run
-is created using libcontainer, creating a container in the same manner that is done
-by `runc`.
-
-For example, when `ctr run -ti ubuntu date` is run:
-
-- The hypervisor will boot the mini-OS image using the guest kernel.
-- `systemd`, running inside the mini-OS context, will launch the `kata-agent` in
-  the same context.
-- The agent will create a new confined context to run the specified command in
-  (`date` in this example).
-- The agent will then execute the command (`date` in this example) inside this
-  new context, first setting the root filesystem to the expected Ubuntu\* root
-  filesystem.
-
-#### Initrd image
-
-A compressed `cpio(1)` archive, created from a rootfs which is loaded into memory and used as part of the Linux startup process. During startup, the kernel unpacks it into a special instance of a `tmpfs` that becomes the initial root filesystem.
-
-The only service running in the context of the initrd is the [Agent](#agent) as the init daemon. The real workload the user wishes to run is created using libcontainer, creating a container in the same manner that is done by `runc`.
-
-## Agent
-
-[`kata-agent`](../../src/agent) is a process running in the guest as a supervisor for managing containers and processes running within those containers.
-
-For the 2.0 release, the `kata-agent` is rewritten in the [RUST programming language](https://www.rust-lang.org/) so that we can minimize its memory footprint while keeping the memory safety of the original GO version of [`kata-agent` used in Kata Container 1.x](https://github.com/kata-containers/agent). This memory footprint reduction is pretty impressive, from tens of megabytes down to less than 100 kilobytes, enabling Kata Containers in more use cases like functional computing and edge computing.
-
-The `kata-agent` execution unit is the sandbox. A `kata-agent` sandbox is a container sandbox defined by a set of namespaces (NS, UTS, IPC and PID). `shimv2` can
-run several containers per VM to support container engines that require multiple
-containers running inside a pod.
-
-`kata-agent` communicates with the other Kata components over `ttRPC`.
-
-## Runtime
-
-`containerd-shim-kata-v2` is a [containerd runtime shimv2](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/blob/v1.4.1/runtime/v2/README.md) implementation and is responsible for handling the `runtime v2 shim APIs`, which is similar to [the OCI runtime specification](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec) but simplifies the architecture by loading the runtime once and making RPC calls to handle the various container lifecycle commands. This refinement is an improvement on the OCI specification which requires the container manager call the runtime binary multiple times, at least once for each lifecycle command.
-
-`containerd-shim-kata-v2` heavily utilizes the
-[virtcontainers package](../../src/runtime/virtcontainers/), which provides a generic, runtime-specification agnostic, hardware-virtualized containers library.
-
-### Configuration
-
-The runtime uses a TOML format configuration file called `configuration.toml`. By default this file is installed in the `/usr/share/defaults/kata-containers` directory and contains various settings such as the paths to the hypervisor, the guest kernel and the mini-OS image.
-
-The actual configuration file paths can be determined by running:
-```
-$ kata-runtime --show-default-config-paths
-```
-Most users will not need to modify the configuration file.
-
-The file is well commented and provides a few "knobs" that can be used to modify the behavior of the runtime and your chosen hypervisor.
-
-The configuration file is also used to enable runtime [debug output](../Developer-Guide.md#enable-full-debug).
-
-## Networking
-
-Containers will typically live in their own, possibly shared, networking namespace.
-At some point in a container lifecycle, container engines will set up that namespace
-to add the container to a network which is isolated from the host network, but
-which is shared between containers
-
-In order to do so, container engines will usually add one end of a virtual
-ethernet (`veth`) pair into the container networking namespace. The other end of
-the `veth` pair is added to the host networking namespace.
-
-This is a very namespace-centric approach as many hypervisors/VMMs cannot handle `veth` 
-interfaces. Typically, `TAP` interfaces are created for VM connectivity.
-
-To overcome incompatibility between typical container engines expectations
-and virtual machines, Kata Containers networking transparently connects `veth`
-interfaces with `TAP` ones using Traffic Control:
-
-![Kata Containers networking](arch-images/network.png)
-
-With a TC filter in place, a redirection is created between the container network and the
-virtual machine. As an example, the CNI may create a device, `eth0`, in the container's network
-namespace, which is a VETH device. Kata Containers will create a tap device for the VM, `tap0_kata`,
-and setup a TC redirection filter to mirror traffic from `eth0`'s ingress to `tap0_kata`'s egress,
-and a second to mirror traffic from `tap0_kata`'s ingress to `eth0`'s egress.
-
-Kata Containers maintains support for MACVTAP, which was an earlier implementation used in Kata. TC-filter
-is the default because it allows for simpler configuration, better CNI plugin compatibility, and performance
-on par with MACVTAP.
-
-Kata Containers has deprecated support for bridge due to lacking performance relative to TC-filter and MACVTAP.
-
- Kata Containers supports both
-[CNM](https://github.com/docker/libnetwork/blob/master/docs/design.md#the-container-network-model)
-and [CNI](https://github.com/containernetworking/cni) for networking management.
-
-### Network Hotplug
-
-Kata Containers has developed a set of network sub-commands and APIs to add, list and
-remove a guest network endpoint and to manipulate the guest route table.
-
-The following diagram illustrates the Kata Containers network hotplug workflow.
-
-![Network Hotplug](arch-images/kata-containers-network-hotplug.png)
-
-## Storage
-Container workloads are shared with the virtualized environment through [virtio-fs](https://virtio-fs.gitlab.io/).
-
-The [devicemapper `snapshotter`](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/tree/master/snapshots/devmapper) is a special case. The `snapshotter` uses dedicated block devices rather than formatted filesystems, and operates at the block level rather than the file level. This knowledge is used to directly use the underlying block device instead of the overlay file system for the container root file system. The block device maps to the top read-write layer for the overlay. This approach gives much better I/O performance compared to using `virtio-fs` to share the container file system.
-
-Kata Containers has the ability to hotplug and remove block devices, which makes it possible to use block devices for containers started after the VM has been launched.
-
-Users can check to see if the container uses the devicemapper block device as its rootfs by calling `mount(8)` within the container.  If the devicemapper block device
-is used, `/` will be mounted on `/dev/vda`.  Users can disable direct mounting of the underlying block device through the runtime configuration.
-
-## Kubernetes support
-
-[Kubernetes\*](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/) is a popular open source
-container orchestration engine. In Kubernetes, a set of containers sharing resources
-such as networking, storage, mount, PID, etc. is called a
-[Pod](https://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/pods/).
-A node can have multiple pods, but at a minimum, a node within a Kubernetes cluster
-only needs to run a container runtime and a container agent (called a
-[Kubelet](https://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/kubelet/)).
-
-A Kubernetes cluster runs a control plane where a scheduler (typically running on a
-dedicated master node) calls into a compute Kubelet. This Kubelet instance is
-responsible for managing the lifecycle of pods within the nodes and eventually relies
-on a container runtime to handle execution. The Kubelet architecture decouples
-lifecycle management from container execution through the dedicated
-`gRPC` based [Container Runtime Interface (CRI)](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/design-proposals/node/container-runtime-interface-v1.md).
-
-In other words, a Kubelet is a CRI client and expects a CRI implementation to
-handle the server side of the interface.
-[CRI-O\*](https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/cri-o) and [Containerd\*](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/) are CRI implementations that rely on [OCI](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec)
-compatible runtimes for managing container instances.
-
-Kata Containers is an officially supported CRI-O and Containerd runtime. Refer to the following guides on how to set up Kata Containers with Kubernetes:
-
-- [How to use Kata Containers and Containerd](../how-to/containerd-kata.md)
-- [Run Kata Containers with Kubernetes](../how-to/run-kata-with-k8s.md)
-
-####  OCI annotations
-
-In order for the Kata Containers runtime (or any virtual machine  based OCI compatible
-runtime) to be able to understand if it needs to create a full virtual machine or if it
-has to create a new container inside an existing pod's virtual machine, CRI-O adds
-specific annotations to the OCI configuration file (`config.json`) which is passed to
-the OCI compatible runtime.
-
-Before calling its runtime, CRI-O will always add a `io.kubernetes.cri-o.ContainerType`
-annotation to the `config.json` configuration file it produces from the Kubelet CRI
-request. The `io.kubernetes.cri-o.ContainerType` annotation can either be set to `sandbox`
-or `container`. Kata Containers will then use this annotation to decide if it needs to
-respectively create a virtual machine or a container inside a virtual machine associated
-with a Kubernetes pod:
-
-```Go
-	containerType, err := ociSpec.ContainerType()
-	if err != nil {
-		return err
-	}
-
-	handleFactory(ctx, runtimeConfig)
-
-	disableOutput := noNeedForOutput(detach, ociSpec.Process.Terminal)
-
-	var process vc.Process
-	switch containerType {
-	case vc.PodSandbox:
-		process, err = createSandbox(ctx, ociSpec, runtimeConfig, containerID, bundlePath, console, disableOutput, systemdCgroup)
-		if err != nil {
-			return err
-		}
-	case vc.PodContainer:
-		process, err = createContainer(ctx, ociSpec, containerID, bundlePath, console, disableOutput)
-		if err != nil {
-			return err
-		}
-	}
-
-```
-
-#### Mixing VM based and namespace based runtimes
-
-> **Note:** Since Kubernetes 1.12, the [`Kubernetes RuntimeClass`](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/containers/runtime-class/)
-> has been supported and the user can specify runtime without the non-standardized annotations.
-
-With `RuntimeClass`, users can define Kata Containers as a `RuntimeClass` and then explicitly specify that a pod being created as a Kata Containers pod. For details, please refer to [How to use Kata Containers and Containerd](../../docs/how-to/containerd-kata.md).
-
-
-# Appendices
-
-## DAX
-
-Kata Containers utilizes the Linux kernel DAX [(Direct Access filesystem)](https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/filesystems/dax.rst?h=v5.14)
-feature to efficiently map some host-side files into the guest VM space.
-In particular, Kata Containers uses the QEMU NVDIMM feature to provide a
-memory-mapped virtual device that can be used to DAX map the virtual machine's
-root filesystem into the guest memory address space.
-
-Mapping files using DAX provides a number of benefits over more traditional VM
-file and device mapping mechanisms:
-
-- Mapping as a direct access devices allows the guest to directly access
-  the host memory pages (such as via Execute In Place (XIP)), bypassing the guest
-  page cache. This provides both time and space optimizations.
-- Mapping as a direct access device inside the VM allows pages from the
-  host to be demand loaded using page faults, rather than having to make requests
-  via a virtualized device (causing expensive VM exits/hypercalls), thus providing
-  a speed optimization.
-- Utilizing `MAP_SHARED` shared memory on the host allows the host to efficiently
-  share pages.
-
-Kata Containers uses the following steps to set up the DAX mappings:
-1. QEMU is configured with an NVDIMM memory device, with a memory file
-  backend to map in the host-side file into the virtual NVDIMM space.
-2. The guest kernel command line mounts this NVDIMM device with the DAX
-  feature enabled, allowing direct page mapping and access, thus bypassing the
-  guest page cache.
-
-![DAX](arch-images/DAX.png)
-
-Information on the use of NVDIMM via QEMU is available in the [QEMU source code](http://git.qemu-project.org/?p=qemu.git;a=blob;f=docs/nvdimm.txt;hb=HEAD)

+# Kata Containers Architecture
+
+## Overview
+
+Kata Containers is an open source community working to build a secure
+container [runtime](#runtime) with lightweight virtual machines (VM's)
+that feel and perform like standard Linux containers, but provide
+stronger [workload](#workload) isolation using hardware
+[virtualization](#virtualization) technology as a second layer of
+defence.
+
+Kata Containers runs on [multiple architectures](../../../src/runtime/README.md#platform-support)
+and supports [multiple hypervisors](../../hypervisors.md).
+
+This document is a summary of the Kata Containers architecture.
+
+## Background knowledge
+
+This document assumes the reader understands a number of concepts
+related to containers and file systems. The
+[background](background.md) document explains these concepts.
+
+## Example command
+
+This document makes use of a particular [example
+command](example-command.md) throughout the text to illustrate certain
+concepts.
+
+## Virtualization
+
+For details on how Kata Containers maps container concepts to VM
+technologies, and how this is realized in the multiple hypervisors and
+VMMs that Kata supports see the
+[virtualization documentation](../virtualization.md).
+
+## Compatibility
+
+The [Kata Containers runtime](../../../src/runtime) is compatible with
+the [OCI](https://github.com/opencontainers)
+[runtime specification](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec)
+and therefore works seamlessly with the
+[Kubernetes Container Runtime Interface (CRI)](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/sig-node/container-runtime-interface.md)
+through the [CRI-O](https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/cri-o)
+and [containerd](https://github.com/containerd/containerd)
+implementations.
+
+Kata Containers provides a ["shimv2"](#shim-v2-architecture) compatible runtime.
+
+## Shim v2 architecture
+
+The Kata Containers runtime is shim v2 ("shimv2") compatible. This
+section explains what this means.
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> For a comparison with the Kata 1.x architecture, see
+> [the architectural history document](history.md).
+
+The
+[containerd runtime shimv2 architecture](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/tree/main/runtime/v2)
+or _shim API_ architecture resolves the issues with the old
+architecture by defining a set of shimv2 APIs that a compatible
+runtime implementation must supply. Rather than calling the runtime
+binary multiple times for each new container, the shimv2 architecture
+runs a single instance of the runtime binary (for any number of
+containers). This improves performance and resolves the state handling
+issue.
+
+The shimv2 API is similar to the
+[OCI runtime](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec)
+API in terms of the way the container lifecycle is split into
+different verbs. Rather than calling the runtime multiple times, the
+container manager creates a socket and passes it to the shimv2
+runtime. The socket is a bi-directional communication channel that
+uses a gRPC based protocol to allow the container manager to send API
+calls to the runtime, which returns the result to the container
+manager using the same channel.
+
+The shimv2 architecture allows running several containers per VM to
+support container engines that require multiple containers running
+inside a pod.
+
+With the new architecture [Kubernetes](kubernetes.md) can
+launch both Pod and OCI compatible containers with a single
+[runtime](#runtime) shim per Pod, rather than `2N+1` shims. No stand
+alone `kata-proxy` process is required, even if VSOCK is not
+available.
+
+## Workload
+
+The workload is the command the user requested to run in the
+container and is specified in the [OCI bundle](background.md#oci-bundle)'s
+configuration file.
+
+In our [example](example-command.md), the workload is the `sh(1)` command.
+
+### Workload root filesystem
+
+For details of how the [runtime](#runtime) makes the
+[container image](background.md#container-image) chosen by the user available to
+the workload process, see the
+[Container creation](#container-creation) and [storage](#storage) sections.
+
+Note that the workload is isolated from the [guest VM](#environments) environment by its
+surrounding [container environment](#environments). The guest VM
+environment where the container runs in is also isolated from the _outer_
+[host environment](#environments) where the container manager runs.
+
+## System overview
+
+### Environments
+
+The following terminology is used to describe the different or
+environments (or contexts) various processes run in. It is necessary
+to study this table closely to make sense of what follows:
+
+| Type | Name | Virtualized | Containerized | rootfs | Rootfs device type | Mount type | Description |
+|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|
+| Host | Host | no `[1]` | no | Host specific | Host specific | Host specific | The environment provided by a standard, physical non virtualized system. |
+| VM root | Guest VM | yes | no | rootfs inside the [guest image](guest-assets.md#guest-image) | Hypervisor specific `[2]` | `ext4` | The first (or top) level VM environment created on a host system. |
+| VM container root | Container | yes | yes | rootfs type requested by user ([`ubuntu` in the example](example-command.md)) | `kataShared` | [virtio FS](storage.md#virtio-fs) | The first (or top) level container environment created inside the VM. Based on the [OCI bundle](background.md#oci-bundle). |
+
+**Key:**
+
+- `[1]`: For simplicity, this document assumes the host environment
+  runs on physical hardware.
+
+- `[2]`: See the [DAX](#dax) section.
+
+> **Notes:**
+>
+> - The word "root" is used to mean _top level_ here in a similar
+>   manner to the term [rootfs](background.md#root-filesystem).
+>
+> - The term "first level" prefix used above is important since it implies
+>   that it is possible to create multi level systems. However, they do
+>   not form part of a standard Kata Containers environment so will not
+>   be considered in this document.
+
+The reasons for containerizing the [workload](#workload) inside the VM
+are:
+
+- Isolates the workload entirely from the VM environment.
+- Provides better isolation between containers in a [pod](kubernetes.md).
+- Allows the workload to be managed and monitored through its cgroup
+  confinement.
+
+### Container creation
+
+The steps below show at a high level how a Kata Containers container is
+created using the containerd container manager:
+
+1. The user requests the creation of a container by running a command
+   like the [example command](example-command.md).
+1. The container manager daemon runs a single instance of the Kata

+1. The container manager returns control of the container to the

+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> At this point, the container is running and:
+>
+> - The [workload](#workload) process ([`sh(1)` in the example](example-command.md))
+>   is running in the [container environment](#environments).
+> - The user is now able to interact with the workload
+>   (using the [`ctr` command in the example](example-command.md)).
+> - The [agent](#agent), running inside the VM is monitoring the
+>   [workload](#workload) process.
+> - The [runtime](#runtime) is waiting for the agent's `WaitProcess` API
+>   call to complete.
+
+Further details of these steps are provided in the sections below.
+
+### Container shutdown
+
+There are two possible ways for the container environment to be
+terminated:
+
+- When the [workload](#workload) exits.
+
+  This is the standard, or _graceful_ shutdown method.
+
+- When the container manager forces the container to be deleted.
+
+#### Workload exit
+
+The [agent](#agent) will detect when the [workload](#workload) process
+exits, capture its exit status (see `wait(2)`) and return that value
+to the [runtime](#runtime) by specifying it as the response to the
+`WaitProcess` agent API call made by the [runtime](#runtime).
+
+The runtime then passes the value back to the container manager by the
+`Wait` [shimv2 API](#shim-v2-architecture) call.
+
+Once the workload has fully exited, the VM is no longer needed and the
+runtime cleans up the environment (which includes terminating the
+[hypervisor](#hypervisor) process).
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> When [agent tracing is enabled](../../tracing.md#agent-shutdown-behaviour),
+> the shutdown behaviour is different.
+
+#### Container manager requested shutdown
+
+If the container manager requests the container be deleted, the
+[runtime](#runtime) will signal the agent by sending it a
+`DestroySandbox` [ttRPC API](../../../src/libs/protocols/protos/agent.proto) request.
+
+## Guest assets
+
+The guest assets comprise a guest image and a guest kernel that are
+used by the [hypervisor](#hypervisor).
+
+See the [guest assets](guest-assets.md) document for further
+information.
+
+## Hypervisor
+
+The [hypervisor](../../hypervisors.md) specified in the
+[configuration file](#configuration) creates a VM to host the
+[agent](#agent) and the [workload](#workload) inside the
+[container environment](#environments).
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> The hypervisor process runs inside an environment slightly different
+> to the host environment:
+>
+> - It is run in a different cgroup environment to the host.
+> - It is given a separate network namespace from the host.
+> - If the [OCI configuration specifies a SELinux label](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/blob/main/config.md#linux-process),
+>   the hypervisor process will run with that label (*not* the workload running inside the hypervisor's VM).
+
+## Agent
+
+The Kata Containers agent ([`kata-agent`](../../../src/agent)), written
+in the [Rust programming language](https://www.rust-lang.org), is a
+long running process that runs inside the VM. It acts as the
+supervisor for managing the containers and the [workload](#workload)
+running within those containers. Only a single agent process is run
+for each VM created.
+
+### Agent communications protocol
+
+The agent communicates with the other Kata components (primarily the
+[runtime](#runtime)) using a
+[`ttRPC`](https://github.com/containerd/ttrpc-rust) based
+[protocol](../../../src/libs/protocols/protos).
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> If you wish to learn more about this protocol, a practical way to do
+> so is to experiment with the
+> [agent control tool](#agent-control-tool) on a test system.
+> This tool is for test and development purposes only and can send
+> arbitrary ttRPC agent API commands to the [agent](#agent).
+
+## Runtime
+
+The Kata Containers runtime (the [`containerd-shim-kata-v2`](../../../src/runtime/cmd/containerd-shim-kata-v2
+) binary) is a [shimv2](#shim-v2-architecture) compatible runtime.
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> The Kata Containers runtime is sometimes referred to as the Kata
+> _shim_. Both terms are correct since the `containerd-shim-kata-v2`
+> is a container runtime, and that runtime implements the containerd
+> shim v2 API.
+
+The runtime makes heavy use of the [`virtcontainers`
+package](../../../src/runtime/virtcontainers), which provides a generic,
+runtime-specification agnostic, hardware-virtualized containers
+library.
+
+The runtime is responsible for starting the [hypervisor](#hypervisor)
+and it's VM, and communicating with the [agent](#agent) using a
+[ttRPC based protocol](#agent-communications-protocol) over a VSOCK
+socket that provides a communications link between the VM and the
+host. 
+
+This protocol allows the runtime to send container management commands
+to the agent. The protocol is also used to carry the standard I/O
+streams (`stdout`, `stderr`, `stdin`) between the containers and
+container managers (such as CRI-O or containerd).
+
+## Utility program
+
+The `kata-runtime` binary is a utility program that provides
+administrative commands to manipulate and query a Kata Containers
+installation.
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> In Kata 1.x, this program also acted as the main
+> [runtime](#runtime), but this is no longer required due to the
+> improved shimv2 architecture.
+
+### exec command
+
+The `exec` command allows an administrator or developer to enter the
+[VM root environment](#environments) which is not accessible by the container
+[workload](#workload).
+
+See [the developer guide](../../Developer-Guide.md#connect-to-debug-console) for further details.
+
+### Configuration
+
+See the [configuration file details](../../../src/runtime/README.md#configuration).
+
+The configuration file is also used to enable runtime [debug output](../../Developer-Guide.md#enable-full-debug).
+
+## Process overview
+
+The table below shows an example of the main processes running in the
+different [environments](#environments) when a Kata Container is
+created with containerd using our [example command](example-command.md):
+
+| Description | Host | VM root environment | VM container environment |
+|-|-|-|-|
+| Container manager | `containerd` | |
+| Kata Containers | [runtime](#runtime), [`virtiofsd`](storage.md#virtio-fs), [hypervisor](#hypervisor) | [agent](#agent) |
+| User [workload](#workload) | | | [`ubuntu sh`](example-command.md) |

+
+####  OCI annotations
+
+In order for the Kata Containers [runtime](#runtime) (or any VM based OCI compatible
+runtime) to be able to understand if it needs to create a full VM or if it
+has to create a new container inside an existing pod's VM, CRI-O adds
+specific annotations to the OCI configuration file (`config.json`) which is passed to
+the OCI compatible runtime.
+
+Before calling its runtime, CRI-O will always add a `io.kubernetes.cri-o.ContainerType`
+annotation to the `config.json` configuration file it produces from the Kubelet CRI
+request. The `io.kubernetes.cri-o.ContainerType` annotation can either be set to `sandbox`
+or `container`. Kata Containers will then use this annotation to decide if it needs to
+respectively create a virtual machine or a container inside a virtual machine associated
+with a Kubernetes pod:
+
+| Annotation value | Kata VM created? | Kata container created? |
+|-|-|-|
+| `sandbox` | yes | yes (inside new VM) |
+| `container`| no | yes (in existing VM) |
+
+#### Mixing VM based and namespace based runtimes
+
+> **Note:** Since Kubernetes 1.12, the [`Kubernetes RuntimeClass`](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/containers/runtime-class/)
+> has been supported and the user can specify runtime without the non-standardized annotations.
+
+With `RuntimeClass`, users can define Kata Containers as a
+`RuntimeClass` and then explicitly specify that a pod must be created
+as a Kata Containers pod. For details, please refer to [How to use
+Kata Containers and containerd](../../../docs/how-to/containerd-kata.md).
+
+## Tracing
+
+The [tracing document](../../tracing.md) provides details on the tracing
+architecture.
+
+# Appendices
+
+## DAX
+
+Kata Containers utilizes the Linux kernel DAX
+[(Direct Access filesystem)](https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/filesystems/dax.rst?h=v5.14)
+feature to efficiently map the [guest image](guest-assets.md#guest-image) in the
+[host environment](#environments) into the
+[guest VM environment](#environments) to become the VM's
+[rootfs](background.md#root-filesystem).
+
+If the [configured](#configuration) [hypervisor](#hypervisor) is set
+to either QEMU or Cloud Hypervisor, DAX is used with the feature shown
+in the table below:
+
+| Hypervisor | Feature used | rootfs device type |
+|-|-|-|
+| Cloud Hypervisor (CH) | `dax` `FsConfig` configuration option | PMEM (emulated Persistent Memory device) |
+| QEMU | NVDIMM memory device with a memory file backend | NVDIMM (emulated Non-Volatile Dual In-line Memory Module device) |
+
+The features in the table above are equivalent in that they provide a memory-mapped
+virtual device which is used to DAX map the VM's
+[rootfs](background.md#root-filesystem) into the [VM guest](#environments) memory
+address space.
+
+The VM is then booted, specifying the `root=` kernel parameter to make
+the [guest kernel](guest-assets.md#guest-kernel) use the appropriate emulated device
+as its rootfs.
+
+### DAX advantages
+
+Mapping files using [DAX](#dax) provides a number of benefits over
+more traditional VM file and device mapping mechanisms:
+
+- Mapping as a direct access device allows the guest to directly
+  access the host memory pages (such as via Execute In Place (XIP)),
+  bypassing the [guest kernel](guest-assets.md#guest-kernel)'s page cache. This
+  zero copy provides both time and space optimizations.
+
+- Mapping as a direct access device inside the VM allows pages from the
+  host to be demand loaded using page faults, rather than having to make requests
+  via a virtualized device (causing expensive VM exits/hypercalls), thus providing
+  a speed optimization.
+
+- Utilizing `mmap(2)`'s `MAP_SHARED` shared memory option on the host
+  allows the host to efficiently share pages.
+
+![DAX](../arch-images/DAX.png)
+
+For further details of the use of NVDIMM with QEMU, see the [QEMU
+project documentation](https://www.qemu.org).

+# Kata Containers architecture background knowledge
+
+The following sections explain some of the background concepts
+required to understand the [architecture document](README.md).
+
+## Root filesystem
+
+This document uses the term _rootfs_ to refer to a root filesystem
+which is mounted as the top-level directory ("`/`") and often referred
+to as _slash_.
+
+It is important to understand this term since the overall system uses
+multiple different rootfs's (as explained in the
+[Environments](README.md#environments) section.
+
+## Container image
+
+In the [example command](example-command.md) the user has specified the
+type of container they wish to run via the container image name:
+`ubuntu`. This image name corresponds to a _container image_ that can
+be used to create a container with an Ubuntu Linux environment. Hence,
+in our [example](example-command.md), the `sh(1)` command will be run
+inside a container which has an Ubuntu rootfs.
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> The term _container image_ is confusing since the image in question
+> is **not** a container: it is simply a set of files (_an image_)
+> that can be used to _create_ a container. The term _container
+> template_ would be more accurate but the term _container image_ is
+> commonly used so this document uses the standard term.
+
+For the purposes of this document, the most important part of the
+[example command line](example-command.md) is the container image the
+user has requested. Normally, the container manager will _pull_
+(download) a container image from a remote site and store a copy
+locally. This local container image is used by the container manager
+to create an [OCI bundle](#oci-bundle) which will form the environment
+the container will run in. After creating the OCI bundle, the
+container manager launches a [runtime](README.md#runtime) which will create the
+container using the provided OCI bundle.
+
+## OCI bundle
+
+To understand what follows, it is important to know at a high level
+how an OCI ([Open Containers Initiative](https://opencontainers.org)) compatible container is created.
+
+An OCI compatible container is created by taking a
+[container image](#container-image) and converting the embedded rootfs
+into an
+[OCI rootfs bundle](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/blob/main/bundle.md),
+or more simply, an _OCI bundle_.
+
+An OCI bundle is a `tar(1)` archive normally created by a container
+manager which is passed to an OCI [runtime](README.md#runtime) which converts
+it into a full container rootfs. The bundle contains two assets:
+
+- A container image [rootfs](#root-filesystem)
+
+  This is simply a directory of files that will be used to represent
+  the rootfs for the container.
+
+  For the [example command](example-command.md), the directory will
+  contain the files necessary to create a minimal Ubuntu root
+  filesystem.
+
+- An [OCI configuration file](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/blob/main/config.md)
+
+  This is a JSON file called `config.json`.
+
+  The container manager will create this file so that:
+
+  - The `root.path` value is set to the full path of the specified
+    container rootfs.
+
+    In [the example](example-command.md) this value will be `ubuntu`.
+
+  - The `process.args` array specifies the list of commands the user
+    wishes to run. This is known as the [workload](README.md#workload).
+
+    In [the example](example-command.md) the workload is `sh(1)`.

+# Example command

+The following containerd command creates a container. It is referred
+to throughout the architecture document to help explain various points:
+
+```bash

+- Use the Kata [shimv2](README.md#shim-v2-architecture) runtime (`--runtime "io.containerd.kata.v2"`).
+- Delete the container when it [exits](README.md#workload-exit) (`--rm`).

+# Guest assets
+
+Kata Containers creates a VM in which to run one or more containers.
+It does this by launching a [hypervisor](README.md#hypervisor) to
+create the VM. The hypervisor needs two assets for this task: a Linux
+kernel and a small root filesystem image to boot the VM.
+
+## Guest kernel
+
+The [guest kernel](../../../tools/packaging/kernel)
+is passed to the hypervisor and used to boot the VM.
+The default kernel provided in Kata Containers is highly optimized for
+kernel boot time and minimal memory footprint, providing only those
+services required by a container workload. It is based on the latest
+Linux LTS (Long Term Support) [kernel](https://www.kernel.org).
+
+## Guest image
+
+The hypervisor uses an image file which provides a minimal root
+filesystem used by the guest kernel to boot the VM and host the Kata
+Container. Kata Containers supports both initrd and rootfs based
+minimal guest images. The [default packages](../../install/) provide both
+an image and an initrd, both of which are created using the
+[`osbuilder`](../../../tools/osbuilder) tool.
+
+> **Notes:**
+>
+> - Although initrd and rootfs based images are supported, not all
+>   [hypervisors](README.md#hypervisor) support both types of image.
+>
+> - The guest image is *unrelated* to the image used in a container
+>   workload.
+>
+>   For example, if a user creates a container that runs a shell in a
+>   BusyBox image, they will run that shell in a BusyBox environment.
+>   However, the guest image running inside the VM that is used to
+>   *host* that BusyBox image could be running Clear Linux, Ubuntu,
+>   Fedora or any other distribution potentially.
+>
+>   The `osbuilder` tool provides
+>   [configurations for various common Linux distributions](../../../tools/osbuilder/rootfs-builder)
+>   which can be built into either initrd or rootfs guest images.
+>
+> - If you are using a [packaged version of Kata
+>   Containers](../../install), you can see image details by running the
+>   [`kata-collect-data.sh`](../../../src/runtime/data/kata-collect-data.sh.in)
+>   script as `root` and looking at the "Image details" section of the
+>   output.
+
+#### Root filesystem image
+
+The default packaged rootfs image, sometimes referred to as the _mini
+O/S_, is a highly optimized container bootstrap system.
+
+If this image type is [configured](README.md#configuration), when the
+user runs the [example command](example-command.md):
+
+- The [runtime](README.md#runtime) will launch the configured [hypervisor](README.md#hypervisor).
+- The hypervisor will boot the mini-OS image using the [guest kernel](#guest-kernel).
+- The kernel will start the init daemon as PID 1 (`systemd`) inside the VM root environment.
+- `systemd`, running inside the mini-OS context, will launch the [agent](README.md#agent)
+  in the root context of the VM.
+- The agent will create a new container environment, setting its root
+  filesystem to that requested by the user (Ubuntu in [the example](example-command.md)).
+- The agent will then execute the command (`sh(1)` in [the example](example-command.md))
+  inside the new container.
+
+The table below summarises the default mini O/S showing the
+environments that are created, the services running in those
+environments (for all platforms) and the root filesystem used by
+each service:
+
+| Process | Environment | systemd service? | rootfs | User accessible | Notes |
+|-|-|-|-|-|-|
+| systemd | VM root | n/a | [VM guest image](#guest-image)| [debug console][debug-console] | The init daemon, running as PID 1 |
+| [Agent](README.md#agent) | VM root | yes | [VM guest image](#guest-image)| [debug console][debug-console] | Runs as a systemd service |
+| `chronyd` | VM root | yes | [VM guest image](#guest-image)| [debug console][debug-console] | Used to synchronise the time with the host |
+| container workload (`sh(1)` in [the example](example-command.md)) | VM container | no | User specified (Ubuntu in [the example](example-command.md)) | [exec command](README.md#exec-command) | Managed by the agent |
+
+See also the [process overview](README.md#process-overview).
+
+> **Notes:**
+>
+> - The "User accessible" column shows how an administrator can access
+>   the environment.
+>
+> - The container workload is running inside a full container
+>   environment which itself is running within a VM environment.
+>
+> - See the [configuration files for the `osbuilder` tool](../../../tools/osbuilder/rootfs-builder)
+>   for details of the default distribution for platforms other than
+>   Intel x86_64.
+
+#### Initrd image
+
+The initrd image is a compressed `cpio(1)` archive, created from a
+rootfs which is loaded into memory and used as part of the Linux
+startup process. During startup, the kernel unpacks it into a special
+instance of a `tmpfs` mount that becomes the initial root filesystem.
+
+If this image type is [configured](README.md#configuration), when the user runs
+the [example command](example-command.md):
+
+- The [runtime](README.md#runtime) will launch the configured [hypervisor](README.md#hypervisor).
+- The hypervisor will boot the mini-OS image using the [guest kernel](#guest-kernel).
+- The kernel will start the init daemon as PID 1 (the
+  [agent](README.md#agent))
+  inside the VM root environment.
+- The [agent](README.md#agent) will create a new container environment, setting its root
+  filesystem to that requested by the user (`ubuntu` in
+  [the example](example-command.md)).
+- The agent will then execute the command (`sh(1)` in [the example](example-command.md))
+  inside the new container.
+
+The table below summarises the default mini O/S showing the environments that are created,
+the processes running in those environments (for all platforms) and
+the root filesystem used by each service:
+
+| Process | Environment | rootfs | User accessible | Notes |
+|-|-|-|-|-|
+| [Agent](README.md#agent) | VM root | [VM guest image](#guest-image) | [debug console][debug-console] | Runs as the init daemon (PID 1) |
+| container workload | VM container | User specified (Ubuntu in this example) | [exec command](README.md#exec-command) | Managed by the agent |
+
+> **Notes:**
+>
+> - The "User accessible" column shows how an administrator can access
+>   the environment.
+>
+> - It is possible to use a standard init daemon such as systemd with
+>   an initrd image if this is desirable.
+
+See also the [process overview](README.md#process-overview).
+
+#### Image summary
+
+| Image type | Default distro | Init daemon | Reason | Notes |
+|-|-|-|-|-|
+| [image](background.md#root-filesystem-image) | [Clear Linux](https://clearlinux.org) (for x86_64 systems)| systemd | Minimal and highly optimized | systemd offers flexibility |

+# History
+
+## Kata 1.x architecture
+
+In the old [Kata 1.x architecture](https://github.com/kata-containers/documentation/blob/master/design/architecture.md),
+the Kata [runtime](README.md#runtime) was an executable called `kata-runtime`.
+The container manager called this executable multiple times when
+creating each container. Each time the runtime was called a different
+OCI command-line verb was provided. This architecture was simple, but
+not well suited to creating VM based containers due to the issue of
+handling state between calls. Additionally, the architecture suffered
+from performance issues related to continually having to spawn new
+instances of the runtime binary, and
+[Kata shim](https://github.com/kata-containers/shim) and
+[Kata proxy](https://github.com/kata-containers/proxy) processes for systems
+that did not provide VSOCK.
+
+## Kata 2.x architecture
+
+See the ["shimv2"](README.md#shim-v2-architecture) section of the
+architecture document.
+
+## Architectural comparison
+
+| Kata version | Kata Runtime process calls | Kata shim processes | Kata proxy processes (if no VSOCK) |
+|-|-|-|-|
+| 1.x | multiple per container | 1 per container connection | 1 |
+| 2.x | 1 per VM (hosting any number of containers) | 0 | 0 |
+

+>
+> - A single VM can host one or more containers.

+# Kubernetes support
+
+[Kubernetes](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/), or K8s, is a popular open source
+container orchestration engine. In Kubernetes, a set of containers sharing resources
+such as networking, storage, mount, PID, etc. is called a
+[pod](https://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/pods/).
+
+A node can have multiple pods, but at a minimum, a node within a Kubernetes cluster
+only needs to run a container runtime and a container agent (called a
+[Kubelet](https://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/kubelet/)).
+
+Kata Containers represents a Kubelet pod as a VM.
+
+A Kubernetes cluster runs a control plane where a scheduler (typically
+running on a dedicated master node) calls into a compute Kubelet. This
+Kubelet instance is responsible for managing the lifecycle of pods
+within the nodes and eventually relies on a container runtime to
+handle execution. The Kubelet architecture decouples lifecycle
+management from container execution through a dedicated gRPC based
+[Container Runtime Interface (CRI)](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/design-proposals/node/container-runtime-interface-v1.md).
+
+In other words, a Kubelet is a CRI client and expects a CRI
+implementation to handle the server side of the interface.
+[CRI-O](https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/cri-o) and
+[containerd](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/) are CRI
+implementations that rely on
+[OCI](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec) compatible
+runtimes for managing container instances.
+
+Kata Containers is an officially supported CRI-O and containerd
+runtime. Refer to the following guides on how to set up Kata
+Containers with Kubernetes:

+# Networking
+
+Containers typically live in their own, possibly shared, networking namespace.
+At some point in a container lifecycle, container engines will set up that namespace
+to add the container to a network which is isolated from the host network.
+
+In order to setup the network for a container, container engines call into a 
+networking plugin. The network plugin will usually create a virtual
+ethernet (`veth`) pair adding one end of the `veth` pair into the container 
+networking namespace, while the other end of the `veth` pair is added to the 
+host networking namespace.
+
+This is a very namespace-centric approach as many hypervisors or VM
+Managers (VMMs) such as `virt-manager` cannot handle `veth`
+interfaces. Typically, [`TAP`](https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/tuntap.txt) 
+interfaces are created for VM connectivity.
+
+To overcome incompatibility between typical container engines expectations
+and virtual machines, Kata Containers networking transparently connects `veth`
+interfaces with `TAP` ones using [Traffic Control](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/tc.8.html):
+
+![Kata Containers networking](../arch-images/network.png)
+
+With a TC filter rules in place, a redirection is created between the container network
+ and the virtual machine. As an example, the network plugin may place a device, 
+`eth0`, in the container's network namespace, which is one end of a VETH device. 
+Kata Containers will create a tap device for the VM, `tap0_kata`,
+and setup a TC redirection filter to redirect traffic from `eth0`'s ingress to `tap0_kata`'s egress,
+and a second TC filter to redirect traffic from `tap0_kata`'s ingress to `eth0`'s egress.
+
+Kata Containers maintains support for MACVTAP, which was an earlier implementation used in Kata. 
+With this method, Kata created a MACVTAP device to connect directly to the `eth0` device. 
+TC-filter is the default because it allows for simpler configuration, better CNI plugin 
+compatibility, and performance on par with MACVTAP.
+
+Kata Containers has deprecated support for bridge due to lacking performance relative to TC-filter and MACVTAP.
+
+Kata Containers supports both
+[CNM](https://github.com/docker/libnetwork/blob/master/docs/design.md#the-container-network-model)
+and [CNI](https://github.com/containernetworking/cni) for networking management.
+
+## Network Hotplug
+
+Kata Containers has developed a set of network sub-commands and APIs to add, list and
+remove a guest network endpoint and to manipulate the guest route table.
+
+The following diagram illustrates the Kata Containers network hotplug workflow.

+# Storage
+
+## virtio SCSI
+
+If a block-based graph driver is [configured](README.md#configuration),
+`virtio-scsi` is used to _share_ the workload image (such as
+`busybox:latest`) into the container's environment inside the VM.
+
+## virtio FS
+
+If a block-based graph driver is _not_ [configured](README.md#configuration), a
+[`virtio-fs`](https://virtio-fs.gitlab.io) (`VIRTIO`) overlay
+filesystem mount point is used to _share_ the workload image instead. The
+[agent](README.md#agent) uses this mount point as the root filesystem for the
+container processes.
+
+For virtio-fs, the [runtime](README.md#runtime) starts one `virtiofsd` daemon
+(that runs in the host context) for each VM created.
+
+## Devicemapper
+
+The
+[devicemapper `snapshotter`](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/tree/master/snapshots/devmapper)
+is a special case. The `snapshotter` uses dedicated block devices
+rather than formatted filesystems, and operates at the block level
+rather than the file level. This knowledge is used to directly use the
+underlying block device instead of the overlay file system for the
+container root file system. The block device maps to the top
+read-write layer for the overlay. This approach gives much better I/O
+performance compared to using `virtio-fs` to share the container file
+system.
+
+#### Hot plug and unplug
+
+Kata Containers has the ability to hot plug add and hot plug remove
+block devices. This makes it possible to use block devices for
+containers started after the VM has been launched.
+
+Users can check to see if the container uses the `devicemapper` block
+device as its rootfs by calling `mount(8)` within the container. If
+the `devicemapper` block device is used, the root filesystem (`/`)
+will be mounted from `/dev/vda`. Users can disable direct mounting of
+the underlying block device through the runtime
+[configuration](README.md#configuration).

+# Motivation
+Today, there exist a few gaps between Container Storage Interface (CSI) and virtual machine (VM) based runtimes such as Kata Containers 
+that prevent them from working together smoothly.
+
+First, it’s cumbersome to use a persistent volume (PV) with Kata Containers. Today, for a PV with Filesystem volume mode, Virtio-fs
+is the only way to surface it inside a Kata Container guest VM. But often mounting the filesystem (FS) within the guest operating system (OS) is 
+desired due to performance benefits, availability of native FS features and security benefits over the Virtio-fs mechanism.
+
+Second, it’s difficult if not impossible to resize a PV online with Kata Containers. While a PV can be expanded on the host OS, 
+the updated metadata needs to be propagated to the guest OS in order for the application container to use the expanded volume. 
+Currently, there is not a way to propagate the PV metadata from the host OS to the guest OS without restarting the Pod sandbox.
+
+# Proposed Solution
+
+Because of the OS boundary, these features cannot be implemented in the CSI node driver plugin running on the host OS 
+as is normally done in the runc container. Instead, they can be done by the Kata Containers agent inside the guest OS, 
+but it requires the CSI driver to pass the relevant information to the Kata Containers runtime. 
+An ideal long term solution would be to have the `kubelet` coordinating the communication between the CSI driver and 
+the container runtime, as described in [KEP-2857](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/pull/2893/files). 
+However, as the KEP is still under review, we would like to propose a short/medium term solution to unblock our use case.
+
+The proposed solution is built on top of a previous [proposal](https://github.com/egernst/kata-containers/blob/da-proposal/docs/design/direct-assign-volume.md) 
+described by Eric Ernst. The previous proposal has two gaps:
+
+1. Writing a `csiPlugin.json` file to the volume root path introduced a security risk. A malicious user can gain unauthorized 
+access to a block device by writing their own `csiPlugin.json` to the above location through an ephemeral CSI plugin.  
+
+2. The proposal didn't describe how to establish a mapping between a volume and a kata sandbox, which is needed for 
+implementing CSI volume resize and volume stat collection APIs.
+
+This document particularly focuses on how to address these two gaps.
+
+## Assumptions and Limitations
+1. The proposal assumes that a block device volume will only be used by one Pod on a node at a time, which we believe 
+is the most common pattern in Kata Containers use cases. It’s also unsafe to have the same block device attached to more than 
+one Kata pod. In the context of Kubernetes, the `PersistentVolumeClaim` (PVC) needs to have the `accessMode` as `ReadWriteOncePod`. 
+2. More advanced Kubernetes volume features such as, `fsGroup`, `fsGroupChangePolicy`, and `subPath` are not supported. 
+
+## End User Interface
+
+1. The user specifies a PV as a direct-assigned volume. How a PV is specified as a direct-assigned volume is left for each CSI implementation to decide.
+There are a few options for reference:
+   1. A storage class parameter specifies whether it's a direct-assigned volume. This avoids any lookups of PVC 
+   or Pod information from the CSI plugin (as external provisioner takes care of these). However, all PVs in the storage class with the parameter set 
+   will have host mounts skipped.
+   2. Use a PVC annotation. This approach requires the CSI plugins have `--extra-create-metadata` [set](https://kubernetes-csi.github.io/docs/external-provisioner.html#persistentvolumeclaim-and-persistentvolume-parameters)
+   to be able to perform a lookup of the PVC annotations from the API server. Pro: API server lookup of annotations only required during creation of PV. 
+   Con: The CSI plugin will always skip host mounting of the PV.
+   3. The CSI plugin can also lookup pod `runtimeclass` during `NodePublish`. This approach can be found in the [ALIBABA CSI plugin](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/alibaba-cloud-csi-driver/blob/master/pkg/disk/nodeserver.go#L248).
+2. The CSI node driver delegates the direct assigned volume to the Kata Containers runtime. The CSI node driver APIs need to 
+   be modified to pass the volume mount information and collect volume information to/from the Kata Containers runtime by invoking `kata-runtime` command line commands.
+   * **NodePublishVolume** -- It invokes `kata-runtime direct-volume add --volume-path [volumePath] --mount-info [mountInfo]` 
+   to propagate the volume mount information to the Kata Containers runtime for it to carry out the filesystem mount operation.
+   The `volumePath` is the [target_path](https://github.com/container-storage-interface/spec/blob/master/csi.proto#L1364) in the CSI `NodePublishVolumeRequest`.
+   The `mountInfo` is a serialized JSON string. 
+   * **NodeGetVolumeStats** -- It invokes `kata-runtime direct-volume stats --volume-path [volumePath]` to retrieve the filesystem stats of direct-assigned volume.
+   * **NodeExpandVolume** -- It invokes `kata-runtime direct-volume resize --volume-path [volumePath] --size [size]` to send a resize request to the Kata Containers runtime to
+   resize the direct-assigned volume.
+   * **NodeStageVolume/NodeUnStageVolume** -- It invokes `kata-runtime direct-volume remove --volume-path [volumePath]` to remove the persisted metadata of a direct-assigned volume.
+
+The `mountInfo` object is defined as follows:
+```Golang
+type MountInfo struct {
+    // The type of the volume (ie. block)
+    VolumeType string `json:"volume-type"`
+    // The device backing the volume.
+    Device string `json:"device"`
+    // The filesystem type to be mounted on the volume.
+    FsType string `json:"fstype"`
+    // Additional metadata to pass to the agent regarding this volume.
+    Metadata map[string]string `json:"metadata,omitempty"`
+    // Additional mount options.
+    Options []string `json:"options,omitempty"`
+}
+```
+Notes: given that the `mountInfo` is persisted to the disk by the Kata runtime, it shouldn't container any secrets (such as SMB mount password).
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Kata runtime
+Instead of the CSI node driver writing the mount info into a `csiPlugin.json` file under the volume root, 
+as described in the original proposal, here we propose that the CSI node driver passes the mount information to 
+the Kata Containers runtime through a new `kata-runtime` commandline command. The `kata-runtime` then writes the mount 
+information to a `mount-info.json` file in a predefined location (`/run/kata-containers/shared/direct-volumes/[volume_path]/`).
+
+When the Kata Containers runtime starts a container, it verifies whether a volume mount is a direct-assigned volume by checking 
+whether there is a `mountInfo` file under the computed Kata `direct-volumes` directory. If it is, the runtime parses the `mountInfo` file, 
+updates the mount spec with the data in `mountInfo`. The updated mount spec is then passed to the Kata agent in the guest VM together
+with other mounts. The Kata Containers runtime also creates a file named by the sandbox id under the `direct-volumes/[volume_path]/` 
+directory. The reason for adding a sandbox id file is to establish a mapping between the volume and the sandbox using it. 
+Later, when the Kata Containers runtime handles the `get-stats` and `resize` commands, it uses the sandbox id to identify 
+the endpoint of the corresponding `containerd-shim-kata-v2`.
+
+### containerd-shim-kata-v2 changes
+`containerd-shim-kata-v2` provides an API for sandbox management through a Unix domain socket. Two new handlers are proposed: `/direct-volume/stats` and `/direct-volume/resize`:
+
+Example:
+
+```bash
+$ curl --unix-socket "$shim_socket_path" -I -X GET 'http://localhost/direct-volume/stats/[urlSafeVolumePath]'
+$ curl --unix-socket "$shim_socket_path" -I -X POST 'http://localhost/direct-volume/resize' -d '{ "volumePath"": [volumePath], "Size": "123123" }'
+```
+
+The shim then forwards the corresponding request to the `kata-agent` to carry out the operations inside the guest VM. For `resize` operation, 
+the Kata runtime also needs to notify the hypervisor to resize the block device (e.g. call `block_resize` in QEMU). 
+
+### Kata agent changes
+
+The mount spec of a direct-assigned volume is passed to `kata-agent` through the existing `Storage` GRPC object. 
+Two new APIs and three new GRPC objects are added to GRPC protocol between the shim and agent for resizing and getting volume stats:
+```protobuf
+
+rpc GetVolumeStats(VolumeStatsRequest) returns (VolumeStatsResponse);
+rpc ResizeVolume(ResizeVolumeRequest) returns (google.protobuf.Empty);
+
+message VolumeStatsRequest {
+// The volume path on the guest outside the container
+    string volume_guest_path = 1;
+}
+
+message ResizeVolumeRequest {
+// Full VM guest path of the volume (outside the container)
+    string volume_guest_path = 1;
+    uint64 size = 2;
+}
+
+// This should be kept in sync with CSI NodeGetVolumeStatsResponse (https://github.com/container-storage-interface/spec/blob/v1.5.0/csi.proto)
+message VolumeStatsResponse {
+   // This field is OPTIONAL.
+   repeated VolumeUsage usage = 1;
+   // Information about the current condition of the volume.
+   // This field is OPTIONAL.
+   // This field MUST be specified if the VOLUME_CONDITION node
+   // capability is supported.
+   VolumeCondition volume_condition = 2;
+}
+message VolumeUsage {
+   enum Unit {
+      UNKNOWN = 0;
+      BYTES = 1;
+      INODES = 2;
+   }
+   // The available capacity in specified Unit. This field is OPTIONAL.
+   // The value of this field MUST NOT be negative.
+   uint64 available = 1;
+
+   // The total capacity in specified Unit. This field is REQUIRED.
+   // The value of this field MUST NOT be negative.
+   uint64 total = 2;
+
+   // The used capacity in specified Unit. This field is OPTIONAL.
+   // The value of this field MUST NOT be negative.
+   uint64 used = 3;
+
+   // Units by which values are measured. This field is REQUIRED.
+   Unit unit = 4;
+}
+
+// VolumeCondition represents the current condition of a volume.
+message VolumeCondition {
+
+   // Normal volumes are available for use and operating optimally.
+   // An abnormal volume does not meet these criteria.
+   // This field is REQUIRED.
+   bool abnormal = 1;
+
+   // The message describing the condition of the volume.
+   // This field is REQUIRED.
+   string message = 2;
+}
+
+```

+
+```
+Let’s assume that changes have been made in the `aws-ebs-csi-driver` node driver.
+
+**Node publish volume**
+1. In the node CSI driver, the `NodePublishVolume` API invokes: `kata-runtime direct-volume add --volume-path "/kubelet/a/b/c/d/sdf" --mount-info "{\"Device\": \"/dev/sdf\", \"fstype\": \"ext4\"}"`.
+2. The `Kata-runtime` writes the mount-info JSON to a file called `mountInfo.json` under `/run/kata-containers/shared/direct-volumes/kubelet/a/b/c/d/sdf`.
+
+**Node unstage volume**
+1. In the node CSI driver, the `NodeUnstageVolume` API invokes: `kata-runtime direct-volume remove --volume-path "/kubelet/a/b/c/d/sdf"`.
+2. Kata-runtime deletes the directory `/run/kata-containers/shared/direct-volumes/kubelet/a/b/c/d/sdf`.
+
+**Use the volume in sandbox**
+1. Upon the request to start a container, the `containerd-shim-kata-v2` examines the container spec,
+and iterates through the mounts. For each mount, if there is a `mountInfo.json` file under `/run/kata-containers/shared/direct-volumes/[mount source path]`,
+it generates a `storage` GRPC object after overwriting the mount spec with the information in `mountInfo.json`.
+2. The shim sends the storage objects to kata-agent through TTRPC.
+3. The shim writes a file with the sandbox id as the name under `/run/kata-containers/shared/direct-volumes/[mount source path]`.
+4. The kata-agent mounts the storage objects for the container.
+
+**Node expand volume**
+1. In the node CSI driver, the `NodeExpandVolume` API invokes: `kata-runtime direct-volume resize –-volume-path "/kubelet/a/b/c/d/sdf" –-size 8Gi`.
+2. The Kata runtime checks whether there is a sandbox id file under the directory `/run/kata-containers/shared/direct-volumes/kubelet/a/b/c/d/sdf`.
+3. The Kata runtime identifies the shim instance through the sandbox id, and sends a GRPC request to resize the volume.
+4. The shim handles the request, asks the hypervisor to resize the block device and sends a GRPC request to Kata agent to resize the filesystem.
+5. Kata agent receives the request and resizes the filesystem.
+
+**Node get volume stats**
+1. In the node CSI driver, the `NodeGetVolumeStats` API invokes: `kata-runtime direct-volume stats –-volume-path "/kubelet/a/b/c/d/sdf"`.
+2. The Kata runtime checks whether there is a sandbox id file under the directory `/run/kata-containers/shared/direct-volumes/kubelet/a/b/c/d/sdf`.
+3. The Kata runtime identifies the shim instance through the sandbox id, and sends a GRPC request to get the volume stats.
+4. The shim handles the request and forwards it to the Kata agent.
+5. Kata agent receives the request and returns the filesystem stats.

+# Background
+
+[Research](https://www.usenix.org/conference/fast16/technical-sessions/presentation/harter) shows that time to take for pull operation accounts for 76% of container startup time but only 6.4% of that data is read. So if we can get data on demand (lazy load), it will speed up the container start. [`Nydus`](https://github.com/dragonflyoss/image-service) is a project which build image with new format and can get data on demand when container start.
+
+The following benchmarking result shows the performance improvement compared with the OCI image for the container cold startup elapsed time on containerd. As the OCI image size increases, the container startup time of using `nydus` image remains very short. [Click here](https://github.com/dragonflyoss/image-service/blob/master/docs/nydus-design.md) to see `nydus` design.
+
+![`nydus`-performance](arch-images/nydus-performance.png)
+
+## Proposal - Bring `lazyload` ability to Kata Containers
+
+`Nydusd` is a fuse/`virtiofs` daemon which is provided by `nydus` project and it supports `PassthroughFS` and [RAFS](https://github.com/dragonflyoss/image-service/blob/master/docs/nydus-design.md) (Registry Acceleration File System) natively, so in Kata Containers, we can use `nydusd` in place of `virtiofsd` and mount `nydus` image to guest in the meanwhile.
+
+The process of creating/starting Kata Containers with `virtiofsd`,
+
+1. When creating sandbox, the Kata Containers Containerd v2 [shim](https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/blob/main/docs/design/architecture/README.md#runtime) will launch `virtiofsd` before VM starts and share directories with VM.
+2. When creating container, the Kata Containers Containerd v2 shim will mount rootfs to `kataShared`(/run/kata-containers/shared/sandboxes/\<SANDBOX\>/mounts/\<CONTAINER\>/rootfs), so it can be seen at the path `/run/kata-containers/shared/containers/shared/\<CONTAINER\>/rootfs` in the guest and used as container's rootfs.
+
+The process of creating/starting Kata Containers with `nydusd`,
+
+![kata-`nydus`](arch-images/kata-nydus.png)
+
+1. When creating sandbox, the Kata Containers Containerd v2 shim will launch `nydusd` daemon before VM starts.
+After VM starts, `kata-agent` will mount `virtiofs` at the path `/run/kata-containers/shared` and Kata Containers Containerd v2 shim mount `passthroughfs` filesystem to path `/run/kata-containers/shared/containers` when the VM starts.
+
+```bash
+# start nydusd
+$ sandbox_id=my-test-sandbox
+$ sudo /usr/local/bin/nydusd --log-level info --sock /run/vc/vm/${sandbox_id}/vhost-user-fs.sock --apisock /run/vc/vm/${sandbox_id}/api.sock
+```
+
+```bash
+# source: the host sharedir which will pass through to guest
+$ sudo curl -v --unix-socket /run/vc/vm/${sandbox_id}/api.sock \
+    -X POST "http://localhost/api/v1/mount?mountpoint=/containers" -H "accept: */*" \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -d '{
+            "source":"/path/to/sharedir",
+            "fs_type":"passthrough_fs",
+            "config":""
+    }'
+```
+
+2. When creating normal container, the Kata Containers Containerd v2 shim send request to `nydusd` to mount `rafs` at the path `/run/kata-containers/shared/rafs/<container_id>/lowerdir` in guest.
+
+```bash
+# source: the metafile of nydus image
+# config: the config of this image
+$ sudo curl --unix-socket /run/vc/vm/${sandbox_id}/api.sock \
+    -X POST "http://localhost/api/v1/mount?mountpoint=/rafs/<container_id>/lowerdir" -H "accept: */*" \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -d '{

+    }'
+```
+
+The Kata Containers Containerd v2 shim will also bind mount `snapshotdir` which `nydus-snapshotter` assigns to `sharedir`。
+So in guest, container rootfs=overlay(`lowerdir=rafs`, `upperdir=snapshotdir/fs`, `workdir=snapshotdir/work`)
+
+> how to transfer the `rafs` info from `nydus-snapshotter` to the Kata Containers Containerd v2 shim?
+
+By default, when creating `OCI` image container, `nydus-snapshotter` will return [`struct` Mount slice](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/blob/main/mount/mount.go#L21) below to containerd and containerd use them to mount rootfs
+
+```
+[
+    {
+        Type: "overlay",
+        Source: "overlay",
+        Options: [lowerdir=/var/lib/containerd/io.containerd.snapshotter.v1.nydus/snapshots/<snapshot_A>/mnt,upperdir=/var/lib/containerd/io.containerd.snapshotter.v1.nydus/snapshots/<snapshot_B>/fs,workdir=/var/lib/containerd/io.containerd.snapshotter.v1.nydus/snapshots/<snapshot_B>/work],
+    }
+]
+```
+
+Then, we can append `rafs` info into `Options`, but if do this, containerd will mount failed, as containerd can not identify `rafs` info. Here, we can refer to [containerd mount helper](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/blob/main/mount/mount_linux.go#L42) and provide a binary called `nydus-overlayfs`. The `Mount` slice which `nydus-snapshotter` returned becomes
+
+```
+[
+    {
+        Type: "fuse.nydus-overlayfs",
+        Source: "overlay",
+        Options: [lowerdir=/var/lib/containerd/io.containerd.snapshotter.v1.nydus/snapshots/<snapshot_A>/mnt,upperdir=/var/lib/containerd/io.containerd.snapshotter.v1.nydus/snapshots/<snapshot_B>/fs,workdir=/var/lib/containerd/io.containerd.snapshotter.v1.nydus/snapshots/<snapshot_B>/work,extraoption=base64({source:xxx,config:xxx,snapshotdir:xxx})],
+    }
+]
+```
+
+When containerd find `Type` is `fuse.nydus-overlayfs`,
+
+1. containerd will call `mount.fuse` command;
+2. in `mount.fuse`, it will call `nydus-overlayfs`.
+3. in `nydus-overlayfs`, it will ignore the `extraoption` and do the overlay mount.
+
+Finally, in the Kata Containers Containerd v2 shim, it parse `extraoption` and get the `rafs` info to mount the image in guest.

+VM size determination varies depending on the type of container being run, and may not always
+be available. If workload sizing information is not available, the virtual machine will be started with the
+`default_vcpus`.
 
-*Container with CPU constraint*
+In the case of a pod, the initial sandbox container (pause container) typically doesn't contain any resource
+information in its runtime `spec`. It is possible that the upper layer runtime
+(i.e. containerd or CRI-O) may pass sandbox sizing annotations within the pause container's
+`spec`. If these are provided, we will use this to appropriately size the VM. In particular,
+we'll calculate the number of CPUs required for the workload and augment this by `default_vcpus`
+configuration option, and use this for the virtual machine size.
 
-```sh
-docker run --cpus 4 -ti debian bash -c "nproc; cat /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/cpu.cfs_*"
-5       # number of vCPUs
-100000  # cfs period
-400000  # cfs quota
-```
+In the case of a single container (i.e., not a pod), if the container specifies resource requirements,
+the container's `spec` will provide the sizing information directly. If these are set, we will
+calculate the number of CPUs required for the workload and augment this by `default_vcpus`
+configuration option, and use this for the virtual machine size.

+# How to run Docker in Docker with Kata Containers
+
+This document describes the why and how behind running Docker in a Kata Container.
+
+> **Note:** While in other environments this might be described as "Docker in Docker", the new architecture of Kata 2.x means [Docker can no longer be used to create containers using a Kata Containers runtime](https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/issues/722).
+
+## Requirements
+
+- A working Kata Containers installation
+
+## Install and configure Kata Containers
+
+Follow the [Kata Containers installation guide](../install/README.md) to Install Kata Containers on your Kubernetes cluster.
+
+## Background
+
+Docker in Docker ("DinD") is the colloquial name for the ability to run `docker` from inside a container.
+
+You can learn more about about Docker-in-Docker at the following links:
+
+- [The original announcement of DinD](https://www.docker.com/blog/docker-can-now-run-within-docker/)
+- [`docker` image Docker Hub page](https://hub.docker.com/_/docker/) (this page lists the `-dind` releases)
+
+While normally DinD refers to running `docker` from inside a Docker container,
+Kata Containers 2.x allows only [supported runtimes][kata-2.x-supported-runtimes] (such as [`containerd`](../install/container-manager/containerd/containerd-install.md)).
+
+Running `docker` in a Kata Container implies creating Docker containers from inside a container managed by `containerd` (or another supported container manager), as illustrated below:
+
+```
+container manager -> Kata Containers shim     -> Docker Daemon -> Docker container
+(containerd)        (containerd-shim-kata-v2)    (dockerd)        (busybox sh)
+```
+
+[OverlayFS][OverlayFS] is the preferred storage driver for most container runtimes on Linux ([including Docker](https://docs.docker.com/storage/storagedriver/select-storage-driver)).
+
+> **Note:** While in the past Kata Containers did not contain the [`overlay` kernel module (aka OverlayFS)][OverlayFS], the kernel modules have been included since the [Kata Containers v2.0.0 release][v2.0.0].
+
+[OverlayFS]: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/filesystems/overlayfs.html
+[v2.0.0]: https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/releases/tag/2.0.0
+[kata-2.x-supported-runtimes]: ../install/container-manager/containerd/containerd-install.md
+
+## Why Docker in Kata Containers 2.x requires special measures
+
+Running Docker containers Kata Containers requires care because `VOLUME`s specified in `Dockerfile`s run by Kata Containers are given the `kataShared` mount type by default, which applies to the root directory `/`:
+
+```console
+/ # mount
+kataShared on / type virtiofs (rw,relatime,dax)
+```
+
+`kataShared` mount types are powered by [`virtio-fs`](https://virtio-fs.gitlab.io/), a marked improvement over `virtio-9p`, thanks to [PR #1016](https://github.com/kata-containers/runtime/pull/1016). While `virtio-fs` is normally an excellent choice, in the case of DinD workloads `virtio-fs` causes an issue -- [it *cannot* be used as a "upper layer" of `overlayfs` without a custom patch](http://lists.katacontainers.io/pipermail/kata-dev/2020-January/001216.html).
+
+As `/var/lib/docker` is a `VOLUME` specified by DinD (i.e. the `docker` images tagged `*-dind`/`*-dind-rootless`), `docker` will fail to start (or even worse, silently pick a worse storage driver like `vfs`) when started in a Kata Container. Special measures must be taken when running DinD-powered workloads in Kata Containers.
+
+## Workarounds/Solutions
+
+Thanks to various community contributions (see [issue references below](#references)) the following options, with various trade-offs have been uncovered:
+
+### Use a memory backed volume
+
+For small workloads (small container images, without much generated filesystem load), a memory-backed volume is sufficient. Kubernetes supports a variant of  [the `EmptyDir` volume](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/volumes/#emptydir), which allows for memdisk-backed storage -- the the `medium: Memory`. An example of a `Pod` using such a setup [was contributed](https://github.com/kata-containers/runtime/issues/1429#issuecomment-477385283), and is reproduced below:
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Pod
+metadata:
+  name: dind
+spec:
+  runtimeClassName: kata
+  containers:
+  - name: dind
+    securityContext:
+      privileged: true
+    image: docker:20.10-dind
+    args: ["--storage-driver=overlay2"]
+    resources:
+      limits:
+        memory: "3G"
+    volumeMounts:
+      - mountPath: /var/run/
+        name: dockersock
+      - mountPath: /var/lib/docker
+        name: docker
+  volumes:
+    - name: dockersock
+      emptyDir: {}
+    - name: docker
+      emptyDir:
+        medium: Memory
+```
+
+Inside the container you can view the mount:
+
+```console
+/ # mount | grep lib\/docker
+tmpfs on /var/lib/docker type tmpfs (rw,relatime)
+```
+
+As is mentioned in the comment encapsulating this code, using volatile memory for container storage backing is a risky and could be possibly wasteful on machines that do not have a lot of RAM.
+
+### Use a loop mounted disk
+
+Using a loop mounted disk that is provisioned shortly before starting of the container workload is another approach that yields good performance.
+
+Contributors provided [an example in issue #1888](https://github.com/kata-containers/runtime/issues/1888#issuecomment-739057384), which is reproduced in part below:
+
+```yaml
+spec:
+  containers:
+    - name: docker
+      image: docker:20.10-dind
+      command: ["sh", "-c"]
+      args:
+      - if [[ $(df -PT /var/lib/docker | awk 'NR==2 {print $2}') == virtiofs ]]; then
+          apk add e2fsprogs &&
+          truncate -s 20G /tmp/disk.img &&
+          mkfs.ext4 /tmp/disk.img &&
+          mount /tmp/disk.img /var/lib/docker; fi &&
+        dockerd-entrypoint.sh;
+      securityContext:
+        privileged: true
+```
+
+Note that loop mounted disks are often sparse, which means they *do not* take up the full amount of space that has been provisioned. This solution seems to produce the best performance and flexibility, at the expense of increased complexity and additional required setup.
+
+### Build a custom kernel
+
+It's possible to [modify the kernel](https://github.com/kata-containers/runtime/issues/1888#issuecomment-616872558) (in addition to applying the earlier mentioned mailing list patch) to support using `virtio-fs` as an upper. Note that if you modify your kernel and use `virtio-fs` you may require [additional changes](https://github.com/kata-containers/runtime/issues/1888#issuecomment-739057384) for decent performance and to address other issues.
+
+> **NOTE:** A future kernel release may rectify the usability and performance issues of using `virtio-fs` as an OverlayFS upper layer.

+# Configure Kata Containers to use Firecracker
+
+This document provides an overview on how to run Kata Containers with the AWS Firecracker hypervisor.
+
+## Introduction
+
+AWS Firecracker is an open source virtualization technology that is purpose-built for creating and managing secure, multi-tenant container and function-based services that provide serverless operational models. AWS Firecracker runs workloads in lightweight virtual machines, called `microVMs`, which combine the security and isolation properties provided by hardware virtualization technology with the speed and flexibility of Containers.
+
+Please refer to AWS Firecracker [documentation](https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/blob/main/docs/getting-started.md) for more details.
+
+## Pre-requisites
+
+This document requires the presence of Kata Containers on your system. Install using the instructions available through the following links:
+
+- Kata Containers [automated installation](../install/README.md)
+
+- Kata Containers manual installation: Automated installation does not seem to be supported for Clear Linux, so please use [manual installation](../Developer-Guide.md) steps.
+> **Note:** Create rootfs image and not initrd image.
+
+## Install AWS Firecracker
+
+Kata Containers only support AWS Firecracker v0.23.4 ([yet](https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/pull/1519)).
+To install Firecracker we need to get the `firecracker` and `jailer` binaries:
+
+```bash
+$ release_url="https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/releases"
+$ version="v0.23.1"
+$ arch=`uname -m`
+$ curl ${release_url}/download/${version}/firecracker-${version}-${arch} -o firecracker
+$ curl ${release_url}/download/${version}/jailer-${version}-${arch} -o jailer
+$ chmod +x jailer firecracker
+```
+
+To make the binaries available from the default system `PATH` it is recommended to move them to `/usr/local/bin` or add a symbolic link:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo ln -s $(pwd)/firecracker /usr/local/bin
+$ sudo ln -s $(pwd)/jailer /usr/local/bin
+```
+
+More details can be found in [AWS Firecracker docs](https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/blob/main/docs/getting-started.md)
+
+In order to run Kata with AWS Firecracker a block device as the backing store for a VM is required. To interact with `containerd` and Kata we use the `devmapper` `snapshotter`.
+
+## Configure `devmapper`
+
+To check support for your `containerd` installation, you can run:
+
+```
+$ ctr plugins ls |grep devmapper
+```
+
+if the output of the above command is:
+
+```
+io.containerd.snapshotter.v1    devmapper                linux/amd64    ok
+```
+then you can skip this section and move on to `Configure Kata Containers with AWS Firecracker`
+
+If the output of the above command is:
+
+```
+io.containerd.snapshotter.v1    devmapper                linux/amd64    error
+```
+
+then we need to setup `devmapper` `snapshotter`. Based on a [very useful
+guide](https://docs.docker.com/storage/storagedriver/device-mapper-driver/)
+from docker, we can set it up using the following scripts:
+
+> **Note:** The following scripts assume a 100G sparse file for storing container images, a 10G sparse file for the thin-provisioning pool and 10G base image files for any sandboxed container created. This means that we will need at least 10GB free space.
+

+Make it executable and run it:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo chmod +x ~/scripts/devmapper/create.sh
+$ cd ~/scripts/devmapper/
+$ sudo ./create.sh
+```
+
+Now, we can add the `devmapper` configuration provided from the script to `/etc/containerd/config.toml`.
+> **Note:** If you are using the default `containerd` configuration (`containerd config default >> /etc/containerd/config.toml`), you may need to edit the existing `[plugins."io.containerd.snapshotter.v1.devmapper"]`configuration.
+Save and restart `containerd`:
+
+
+```bash
+$ sudo systemctl restart containerd
+```
+
+We can use `dmsetup` to verify that the thin-pool was created successfully.
+
+```bash
+$ sudo dmsetup ls
+```
+
+ We should also check that `devmapper` is registered and running:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo ctr plugins ls | grep devmapper
+```
+
+This script needs to be run only once, while setting up the `devmapper` `snapshotter` for `containerd`. Afterwards, make sure that on each reboot, the thin-pool is initialized from the same data directory. Otherwise, all the fetched containers (or the ones that you have created) will be re-initialized. A simple script that re-creates the thin-pool from the same data directory is shown below:
+
+```
+#!/bin/bash
+set -ex
+
+DATA_DIR=/var/lib/containerd/devmapper
+POOL_NAME=devpool
+
+# Allocate loop devices
+DATA_DEV=$(sudo losetup --find --show "${DATA_DIR}/data")
+META_DEV=$(sudo losetup --find --show "${DATA_DIR}/meta")
+
+# Define thin-pool parameters.
+# See https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/device-mapper/thin-provisioning.txt for details.

+DATA_SIZE="$(sudo blockdev --getsize64 -q ${DATA_DEV})"
+LENGTH_IN_SECTORS=$(bc <<< "${DATA_SIZE}/${SECTOR_SIZE}")

+
+# Create a thin-pool device
+sudo dmsetup create "${POOL_NAME}" \
+    --table "0 ${LENGTH_IN_SECTORS} thin-pool ${META_DEV} ${DATA_DEV} ${DATA_BLOCK_SIZE} ${LOW_WATER_MARK}"
+```
+
+We can create a systemd service to run the above script on each reboot:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo nano /lib/systemd/system/devmapper_reload.service
+```
+
+The service file:
+
+```
+[Unit]
+Description=Devmapper reload script
+
+[Service]
+ExecStart=/path/to/script/reload.sh
+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=multi-user.target
+```
+
+Enable the newly created service:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+$ sudo systemctl enable devmapper_reload.service
+$ sudo systemctl start devmapper_reload.service
+```
+
+## Configure Kata Containers with AWS Firecracker
+
+To configure Kata Containers with AWS Firecracker, copy the generated `configuration-fc.toml` file when building the `kata-runtime` to either `/etc/kata-containers/configuration-fc.toml` or `/usr/share/defaults/kata-containers/configuration-fc.toml`.
+
+The following command shows full paths to the `configuration.toml` files that the runtime loads. It will use the first path that exists. (Please make sure the kernel and image paths are set correctly in the `configuration.toml` file)
+
+```bash
+$ sudo kata-runtime --show-default-config-paths
+```
+
+## Configure `containerd`
+Next, we need to configure containerd. Add a file in your path (e.g. `/usr/local/bin/containerd-shim-kata-fc-v2`) with the following contents:
+
+```
+#!/bin/bash
+KATA_CONF_FILE=/etc/containers/configuration-fc.toml /usr/local/bin/containerd-shim-kata-v2 $@
+```
+> **Note:** You may need to edit the paths of the configuration file and the `containerd-shim-kata-v2` to correspond to your setup.
+
+Make it executable:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/containerd-shim-kata-fc-v2
+```
+
+Add the relevant section in `containerd`’s `config.toml` file (`/etc/containerd/config.toml`):
+
+```
+[plugins.cri.containerd.runtimes]
+  [plugins.cri.containerd.runtimes.kata-fc]
+    runtime_type = "io.containerd.kata-fc.v2"
+```
+
+> **Note:** If you are using the default `containerd` configuration (`containerd config default >> /etc/containerd/config.toml`),
+> the configuration should change to :
+```
+[plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".containerd.runtimes]
+  [plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".containerd.runtimes.kata-fc]
+    runtime_type = "io.containerd.kata-fc.v2"
+```
+
+Restart `containerd`:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo systemctl restart containerd
+```
+
+## Verify the installation
+
+We are now ready to launch a container using Kata with Firecracker to verify that everything worked:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo ctr images pull --snapshotter devmapper docker.io/library/ubuntu:latest
+$ sudo ctr run --snapshotter devmapper --runtime io.containerd.run.kata-fc.v2 -t --rm docker.io/library/ubuntu

+# Kata Containers with virtio-fs-nydus
+
+## Introduction
+
+Refer to [kata-`nydus`-design](../design/kata-nydus-design.md) for introduction and `nydus` has supported Kata Containers with hypervisor `QEMU` and `CLH` currently.
+
+## How to
+
+You can use Kata Containers with `nydus` as follows,
+
+1. Use [`nydus` latest branch](https://github.com/dragonflyoss/image-service);
+
+2. Deploy `nydus` environment as [`Nydus` Setup for Containerd Environment](https://github.com/dragonflyoss/image-service/blob/master/docs/containerd-env-setup.md);
+
+3. Start `nydus-snapshotter` with `enable_nydus_overlayfs` enabled;
+
+4. Use [kata-containers](https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers) `latest` branch to compile and build `kata-containers.img`;
+
+5. Update `configuration-qemu.toml` or `configuration-clh.toml`to include:
+
+```toml
+shared_fs = "virtio-fs-nydus"
+virtio_fs_daemon = "<nydusd binary path>"
+virtio_fs_extra_args = []
+```
+
+6. run `crictl run -r kata nydus-container.yaml nydus-sandbox.yaml`;
+
+The `nydus-sandbox.yaml` looks like below:
+
+```yaml
+metadata:
+  attempt: 1
+  name: nydus-sandbox
+  namespace: default
+log_directory: /tmp
+linux:
+  security_context:
+    namespace_options:
+      network: 2
+annotations:
+  "io.containerd.osfeature": "nydus.remoteimage.v1"
+```
+
+The `nydus-container.yaml` looks like below:
+
+```yaml
+metadata:
+  name: nydus-container
+image:
+  image: localhost:5000/ubuntu-nydus:latest
+command:
+  - /bin/sleep
+args:
+  - 600

-
-#### Untrusted annotation (until CRI-O v1.12)
-The untrusted annotation is used to specify a runtime for __untrusted__ workloads, i.e.
-a runtime to be used when the workload cannot be trusted and a higher level of security
-is required. An additional flag can be used to let CRI-O know if a workload
-should be considered _trusted_ or _untrusted_ by default.
-For further details, see the documentation
-[here](../design/architecture.md#mixing-vm-based-and-namespace-based-runtimes).
-
-```toml
-# runtime is the OCI compatible runtime used for trusted container workloads.
-# This is a mandatory setting as this runtime will be the default one
-# and will also be used for untrusted container workloads if
-# runtime_untrusted_workload is not set.
-runtime = "/usr/bin/runc"
-
-# runtime_untrusted_workload is the OCI compatible runtime used for untrusted
-# container workloads. This is an optional setting, except if
-# default_container_trust is set to "untrusted".
-runtime_untrusted_workload = "/usr/bin/kata-runtime"
-
-# default_workload_trust is the default level of trust crio puts in container
-# workloads. It can either be "trusted" or "untrusted", and the default
-# is "trusted".
-# Containers can be run through different container runtimes, depending on
-# the trust hints we receive from kubelet:
-# - If kubelet tags a container workload as untrusted, crio will try first to
-# run it through the untrusted container workload runtime. If it is not set,
-# crio will use the trusted runtime.
-# - If kubelet does not provide any information about the container workload trust
-# level, the selected runtime will depend on the default_container_trust setting.
-# If it is set to "untrusted", then all containers except for the host privileged
-# ones, will be run by the runtime_untrusted_workload runtime. Host privileged
-# containers are by definition trusted and will always use the trusted container
-# runtime. If default_container_trust is set to "trusted", crio will use the trusted
-# container runtime for all containers.
-default_workload_trust = "untrusted"

-

-manage network namespaces, by setting the following key to `true`.

+## Why write unit tests?
+
+- Catch regressions
+
+- Improve the code being tested
+
+  Structure, quality, security, performance, "shakes out" implicit
+  assumptions, _etc_
+
+- Extremely instructive
+
+  Once you've fully tested a single function, you'll understand that
+  code very well indeed.
+
+## Why write unit tests? (continued)
+
+- Fun!
+
+  Yes, really! Don't believe me? Try it! ;)
+
+## Run all Kata Containers agent unit tests
+
+As an example, to run all agent unit tests:
+
+```bash
+$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers
+$ cd src/agent
+$ make test
+```
+
+## List all unit tests
+
+- Identify the full name of all the tests _in the current package_:
+
+  ```bash
+  $ cargo test -- --list
+  ```
+
+- Identify the full name of all tests in the `foo` "local crate"
+  (sub-directory containing another `Cargo.toml` file):
+
+  ```bash
+  $ cargo test -p "foo" -- --list
+  ```
+
+## Run a single unit test
+
+- Run a test in the current package in verbose mode:
+
+  ```bash
+  # Example 
+  $ test="config::tests::test_get_log_level"
+
+  $ cargo test "$test" -vv -- --exact --nocapture
+  ```
+
+## Test coverage setup
+
+```bash
+$ cargo install cargo-tarpaulin
+```
+
+## Show test coverage
+
+```bash
+$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/src/agent
+$ cargo -v tarpaulin --all-features --run-types AllTargets --count --force-clean -o Html
+$ xdg-open "file://$PWD/tarpaulin-report.html"
+```
+
+## Testability (part 1)
+
+- To be testable, a function should:
+  - Not be "too long" (say >100 lines).
+  - Not be "too complex" (say >3 levels of indentation).
+  - Should return a `Result` or an `Option` so error paths
+    can be tested.
+
+- If functions don't conform, they need to be reworked (refactored)
+  before writing tests.
+
+## Testability (part 2)
+
+- Some functions can't be fully tested.
+- However, you _can_ test the initial code that checks
+  the parameter values (test error paths only).
+
+## Writing new tests: General advice (part 1)
+
+- KISS: Keep It Simple Stupid
+
+  You don't get extra points for cryptic code.
+
+- DRY: Don't Repeat Yourself
+
+  Make use of existing facilities (don't "re-invert the wheel").
+
+- Read the [unit test advice document](https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/blob/main/docs/Unit-Test-Advice.md)
+
+## Writing new tests: General advice (part 2)
+
+- Attack the function in all possible ways
+
+- Use the _table driven_ approach:
+  - Simple
+  - Compact
+  - Easy to debug
+  - Makes boundary analysis easy
+  - Encourages functions to be testable
+
+## Writing new tests: Specific advice (part 1)
+
+- Create a new "`tests`" module if necessary.
+- Give each test function a "`test_`" prefix.
+- Add the "`#[test]`" annotation on each test function.
+
+## Writing new tests: Specific advice (part 2)
+
+- If you need to `use` (import) packages for the tests,
+  _only do it in the `tests` module_:
+  ```rust
+  use some_test_pkg::{foo, bar}; // <-- Not here
+
+  #[cfg(test)]
+  mod tests {
+    use super::*;
+    use some_test_pkg:{foo, bar}; // <-- Put it here
+  }
+  ```
+
+## Writing new tests: Specific advice (part 3)
+
+- You can add test-specific dependencies in `Cargo.toml`:
+  ```toml
+  [dev-dependencies]
+  serial_test = "0.5.1"
+  ```
+
+## Writing new tests: Specific advice (part 4)
+
+- Don't add in lots of error handling code: let the test panic!
+  ```rust
+  // This will panic if the unwrap fails.
+  // - NOT acceptable generally for production code.
+  // - PERFECTLY acceptable for test code since:
+  //   - Keeps the test code simple.
+  //   - Rust will detect the panic and fail the test.
+  let result = func().unwrap();
+  ```
+
+## Debugging tests (part 1)
+
+- Comment out all tests in your `TestData` array apart from the failing test.
+
+- Add temporary `println!("FIXME: ...")` statements in the code.
+
+- Set `RUST_BACKTRACE=full` before running `cargo test`.
+
+## Debugging tests (part 2)
+
+- Use a debugger (not normally necessary though):
+  ```bash
+  # Disable optimisation
+  $ RUSTFLAGS="-C opt-level=0" cargo test --no-run
+
+  # Find the test binary
+  $ test_binary=$(find target/debug/deps | grep "kata_agent-[a-z0-9][a-z0-9]*$" | tail -1)
+
+  $ rust-gdb "$test_binary"
+  ```
+
+## Useful tips
+
+- Always start a test with a "clean environment":
+
+  Create new set of objects / files / directories / _etc_
+  for each test.
+
+- Mounts
+  - Linux allows mounts on top of existing mounts.
+  - Bind mounts and read-only mounts can be useful.
+
+## Gotchas (part 1)
+
+If a test runs successfully _most of the time_:
+
+- Review the test logic.
+
+- Add a `#[serial]` annotation on the test function
+  Requires the `serial_test` package in the `[dev-dependencies]`
+  section of `Cargo.toml`.
+
+  If this makes it work the test is probably sharing resources with
+  another task (thread).
+
+## Gotchas (part 2)
+
+If a test works locally but fails in the CI, consider the following
+attributes of each environment (local and CI):
+
+- The version of rust being used.
+- The hardware architecture.
+- Number (and spec) of the CPUs.
+
+## Gotchas (part 3)
+
+If in doubt, look at the
+["test artifacts" attached to the failing CI test](http://jenkins.katacontainers.io).
+
+## Before raising a PR
+
+- Remember to check that the test runs locally:
+  - As a non-privileged user.
+  - As the `root` user (carefully!)
+
+- Run the [static checker](https://github.com/kata-containers/tests/blob/main/.ci/static-checks.sh)
+  on your changes.
+
+  Checks formatting and many other things.
+
+## If in doubt
+
+- Ask for help! ;)
+
+## Quiz 1
+
+What's wrong with this function?
+
+```rust
+fn foo(config: &Config, path_prefix: String, container_id: String, pid: String) -> Result<()> {
+    let mut full_path = format!("{}/{}", path_prefix, container_id);
+
+    let _ = remove_recursively(&mut full_path);
+
+    write_number_to_file(pid, full_path);
+
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+## Quiz 1: Answers (part 1)
+
+- No check that `path_prefix`, `container_id` and `pid` are not `""`.
+- No check that `path_prefix` is absolute.
+- No check that `container_id` does not contain slashes / contains only valid characters.
+- Result of `remove_recursively()` discarded.
+- `remove_recursively()` _may_ modify `full_path` without `foo()` knowing!
+
+## Quiz 1: Answers (part 2)
+
+- Why is `pid` not a numeric?
+- No check to ensure the PID is positive.
+- No check to recreate any directories in the original `path_prefix`.
+- `write_number_to_file()` could fail so why doesn't it return a value?
+- The `config` parameter is unused.
+
+## Quiz 1: What if...
+
+Imagine if the caller managed to do this:
+
+```rust
+foo(config, "", "sbin/init", r#"#!/bin/sh\n/sbin/reboot"#);
+```
+
+## Quiz 2
+
+What makes this function difficult to test?
+
+```rust
+fn get_user_id(username: String) -> i32 {
+    let line = grep_file(username, "/etc/passwd").unwrap();
+    let fields = line.split(':');
+
+    let uid = fields.nth(2).ok_or("failed").unwrap();
+
+    uid.parse::<i32>()
+}
+```
+
+## Quiz 2: Answers (part 1)
+
+- Unhelpful error message ("failed").
+
+- Panics on error! Return a `Result` instead!
+
+- UID's cannot be negative so function should return an unsigned
+  value.
+
+## Quiz 2: Answers (part 2)
+
+- Hard-coded filename.
+
+  This would be better:
+
+  ```rust
+  const PASSWD_DB: &str = "/etc/passwd";
+
+  // Test code can now pass valid and invalid files!
+  fn get_user_id(filename: String, username: String) -> i32 {
+    // ...
+  }
+
+  let id = get_user_id(PASSWD_DB, username);
+  ```
+
+## Quiz 3
+
+What's wrong with this test code?
+
+```rust
+let mut obj = Object::new();
+
+// Sanity check
+assert_eq!(obj.num, 0);
+assert_eq!(obj.wibble, false);
+
+// Test 1
+obj->foo_method(7);
+assert_eq!(obj.num, 7);
+
+// Test 2
+obj->bar_method(true);
+assert_eq!(obj.wibble, true);
+```
+
+## Quiz 3: Answers
+
+- The test code is "fragile":
+  - The 2nd test re-uses the object created in the first test.
+
+## Finally
+
+- [We need a GH action to run the unit tests](https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/issues/2934)

+# Overview
+
+This document explains how to trace Kata Containers components.
+
+# Introduction
+
+The Kata Containers runtime and agent are able to generate
+[OpenTelemetry][opentelemetry] trace spans, which allow the administrator to
+observe what those components are doing and how much time they are spending on
+each operation.
+
+# OpenTelemetry summary
+
+An OpenTelemetry-enabled application creates a number of trace "spans". A span
+contains the following attributes:
+
+- A name
+- A pair of timestamps (recording the start time and end time of some operation)
+- A reference to the span's parent span
+
+All spans need to be *finished*, or *completed*, to allow the OpenTelemetry
+framework to generate the final trace information (by effectively closing the
+transaction encompassing the initial (root) span and all its children).
+
+For Kata, the root span represents the total amount of time taken to run a
+particular component from startup to its shutdown (the "run time").
+
+# Architecture
+
+## Runtime tracing architecture
+
+The runtime, which runs in the host environment, has been modified to
+optionally generate trace spans which are sent to a trace collector on the
+host.
+
+## Agent tracing architecture
+
+An OpenTelemetry system (such as [Jaeger][jaeger-tracing]) uses a collector to
+gather up trace spans from the application for viewing and processing. For an
+application to use the collector, it must run in the same context as
+the collector.
+
+This poses a problem for tracing the Kata Containers agent since it does not
+run in the same context as the collector: it runs inside a virtual machine (VM).
+
+To allow spans from the agent to be sent to the trace collector, Kata provides
+a [trace forwarder][trace-forwarder] component. This runs in the same context
+as the collector (generally on the host system) and listens on a
+[`VSOCK`][vsock] channel for traces generated by the agent, forwarding them on
+to the trace collector.
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> This design supports agent tracing without having to make changes to the
+> image, but also means that [custom images][osbuilder] can also benefit from
+> agent tracing.
+
+The following diagram summarises the architecture used to trace the Kata
+Containers agent:
+
+```
++--------------------------------------------+
+| Host                                       |
+|                                            |

+| | Collector     |                          |

+| +-----------+    Channel |     +-------+ | |
+|                          +---------------+ |
++--------------------------------------------+
+```
+
+# Agent tracing prerequisites
+
+- You must have a trace collector running.
+
+  Although the collector normally runs on the host, it can also be run from
+  inside a Docker image configured to expose the appropriate host ports to the
+  collector.
+
+  The [Jaeger "all-in-one" Docker image][jaeger-all-in-one] method
+  is the quickest and simplest way to run the collector for testing.
+
+- If you wish to trace the agent, you must start the
+  [trace forwarder][trace-forwarder].
+
+> **Notes:**
+>
+> - If agent tracing is enabled but the forwarder is not running,
+>   the agent will log an error (signalling that it cannot generate trace
+>   spans), but continue to work as normal.
+>
+> - The trace forwarder requires a trace collector (such as Jaeger) to be
+>   running before it is started. If a collector is not running, the trace
+>   forwarder will exit with an error.
+
+# Enable tracing
+
+By default, tracing is disabled for all components. To enable _any_ form of
+tracing an `enable_tracing` option must be enabled for at least one component.
+
+> **Note:** 
+>
+> Enabling this option will only allow tracing for subsequently
+> started containers.
+
+## Enable runtime tracing
+
+To enable runtime tracing, set the tracing option as shown:
+
+```toml
+[runtime]
+enable_tracing = true
+```
+
+## Enable agent tracing
+
+To enable agent tracing, set the tracing option as shown:
+
+```toml
+[agent.kata]
+enable_tracing = true
+```
+
+> **Note:**
+>
+> If both agent tracing and runtime tracing are enabled, the resulting trace
+> spans will be "collated": expanding individual runtime spans in the Jaeger
+> web UI will show the agent trace spans resulting from the runtime
+> operation.
+
+# Appendices
+
+## Agent tracing requirements
+
+### Host environment
+
+- The host kernel must support the VSOCK socket type.
+
+  This will be available if the kernel is built with the
+  `CONFIG_VHOST_VSOCK` configuration option.
+
+- The VSOCK kernel module must be loaded:
+
+   ```
+   $ sudo modprobe vhost_vsock
+   ```
+
+### Guest environment
+
+- The guest kernel must support the VSOCK socket type:
+
+  This will be available if the kernel is built with the
+  `CONFIG_VIRTIO_VSOCKETS` configuration option.
+
+  > **Note:** The default Kata Containers guest kernel provides this feature.
+
+## Agent tracing limitations
+
+- Agent tracing is only "completed" when the workload and the Kata agent
+  process have exited.
+
+  Although trace information *can* be inspected before the workload and agent
+  have exited, it is incomplete. This is shown as `<trace-without-root-span>`
+  in the Jaeger web UI.
+
+  If the workload is still running, the trace transaction -- which spans the entire
+  runtime of the Kata agent -- will not have been completed. To view the complete
+  trace details, wait for the workload to end, or stop the container.
+
+## Performance impact
+
+[OpenTelemetry][opentelemetry] is designed for high performance. It combines
+the best of two previous generation projects (OpenTracing and OpenCensus) and
+uses a very efficient mechanism to capture trace spans. Further, the trace
+points inserted into the agent are generated dynamically at compile time. This
+is advantageous since new versions of the agent will automatically benefit
+from improvements in the tracing infrastructure. Overall, the impact of
+enabling runtime and agent tracing should be extremely low.
+
+## Agent shutdown behaviour
+ 
+In normal operation, the Kata runtime manages the VM shutdown and performs
+certain optimisations to speed up this process. However, if agent tracing is
+enabled, the agent itself is responsible for shutting down the VM. This it to
+ensure all agent trace transactions are completed. This means there will be a
+small performance impact for container shutdown when agent tracing is enabled
+as the runtime must wait for the VM to shutdown fully.
+
+## Set up a tracing development environment
+
+If you want to debug, further develop, or test tracing,
+[enabling full debug][enable-full-debug]
+is highly recommended. For working with the agent, you may also wish to
+[enable a debug console][setup-debug-console]
+to allow you to access the VM environment.

+# Using NVIDIA GPU device with Kata Containers
+
+An NVIDIA GPU device can be passed to a Kata Containers container using GPU
+passthrough (NVIDIA GPU pass-through mode) as well as GPU mediated passthrough
+(NVIDIA vGPU mode).
+
+NVIDIA GPU pass-through mode, an entire physical GPU is directly assigned to one
+VM, bypassing the NVIDIA Virtual GPU Manager. In this mode of operation, the GPU
+is accessed exclusively by the NVIDIA driver running in the VM to which it is
+assigned. The GPU is not shared among VMs.
+
+NVIDIA Virtual GPU (vGPU) enables multiple virtual machines (VMs) to have
+simultaneous, direct access to a single physical GPU, using the same NVIDIA
+graphics drivers that are deployed on non-virtualized operating systems. By
+doing this, NVIDIA vGPU provides VMs with unparalleled graphics performance,
+compute performance, and application compatibility, together with the
+cost-effectiveness and scalability brought about by sharing a GPU among multiple
+workloads. A vGPU can be either time-sliced or Multi-Instance GPU (MIG)-backed
+with [MIG-slices](https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/tesla/mig-user-guide/).
+
+| Technology | Description | Behavior | Detail |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| NVIDIA GPU pass-through mode | GPU passthrough | Physical GPU assigned to a single VM | Direct GPU assignment to VM without limitation |
+| NVIDIA vGPU time-sliced | GPU time-sliced | Physical GPU time-sliced for multiple VMs | Mediated passthrough |
+| NVIDIA vGPU MIG-backed | GPU with MIG-slices | Physical GPU MIG-sliced for multiple VMs | Mediated passthrough |
+
+## Hardware Requirements
+
+NVIDIA GPUs Recommended for Virtualization:
+
+- NVIDIA Tesla (T4, M10, P6, V100 or newer)
+- NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000/8000
+
+## Host BIOS Requirements
+
+Some hardware requires a larger PCI BARs window, for example, NVIDIA Tesla P100,
+K40m
+
+```sh
+$ lspci -s d0:00.0 -vv | grep Region
+        Region 0: Memory at e7000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
+        Region 1: Memory at 222800000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=32G] # Above 4G
+        Region 3: Memory at 223810000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=32M]
+```
+
+For large BARs devices, MMIO mapping above 4G address space should be `enabled`
+in the PCI configuration of the BIOS.
+
+Some hardware vendors use different name in BIOS, such as:
+
+- Above 4G Decoding
+- Memory Hole for PCI MMIO
+- Memory Mapped I/O above 4GB
+
+If one is using a GPU based on the Ampere architecture and later additionally
+SR-IOV needs to be enabled for the vGPU use-case.
+
+The following steps outline the workflow for using an NVIDIA GPU with Kata.
+
+## Host Kernel Requirements
+
+The following configurations need to be enabled on your host kernel:
+
+- `CONFIG_VFIO`
+- `CONFIG_VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1`
+- `CONFIG_VFIO_MDEV`
+- `CONFIG_VFIO_MDEV_DEVICE`
+- `CONFIG_VFIO_PCI`
+
+Your host kernel needs to be booted with `intel_iommu=on` on the kernel command
+line.
+
+## Install and configure Kata Containers
+
+To use non-large BARs devices (for example, NVIDIA Tesla T4), you need Kata
+version 1.3.0 or above. Follow the [Kata Containers setup
+instructions](../install/README.md) to install the latest version of Kata.
+
+To use large BARs devices (for example, NVIDIA Tesla P100), you need Kata
+version 1.11.0 or above.
+
+The following configuration in the Kata `configuration.toml` file as shown below
+can work:
+
+Hotplug for PCI devices with small BARs by `acpi_pcihp` (Linux's ACPI PCI
+Hotplug driver):
+
+```sh
+machine_type = "q35"
+
+hotplug_vfio_on_root_bus = false
+```
+
+Hotplug for PCIe devices with large BARs by `pciehp` (Linux's PCIe Hotplug
+driver):
+
+```sh
+machine_type = "q35"
+
+hotplug_vfio_on_root_bus = true
+pcie_root_port = 1
+```
+
+## Build Kata Containers kernel with GPU support
+
+The default guest kernel installed with Kata Containers does not provide GPU
+support. To use an NVIDIA GPU with Kata Containers, you need to build a kernel
+with the necessary GPU support.
+
+The following kernel config options need to be enabled:
+
+```sh
+# Support PCI/PCIe device hotplug (Required for large BARs device)
+CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE=y
+
+# Support for loading modules (Required for load NVIDIA drivers)
+CONFIG_MODULES=y
+CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y
+
+# Enable the MMIO access method for PCIe devices (Required for large BARs device)
+ CONFIG_PCI_MMCONFIG=y
+```
+
+The following kernel config options need to be disabled:
+
+```sh
+# Disable Open Source NVIDIA driver nouveau
+# It conflicts with NVIDIA official driver
+CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU=n
+```
+
+> **Note**: `CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU` is normally disabled by default.
+It is worth checking that it is not enabled in your kernel configuration to
+prevent any conflicts.
+
+Build the Kata Containers kernel with the previous config options, using the
+instructions described in [Building Kata Containers
+kernel](../../tools/packaging/kernel). For further details on building and
+installing guest kernels, see [the developer
+guide](../Developer-Guide.md#install-guest-kernel-images).
+
+There is an easy way to build a guest kernel that supports NVIDIA GPU:
+
+```sh
+## Build guest kernel with ../../tools/packaging/kernel
+
+# Prepare (download guest kernel source, generate .config)
+$ ./build-kernel.sh -v 5.15.23 -g nvidia -f setup
+
+# Build guest kernel
+$ ./build-kernel.sh -v 5.15.23 -g nvidia build
+
+# Install guest kernel
+$ sudo -E ./build-kernel.sh -v 5.15.23 -g nvidia install
+```
+
+To build NVIDIA Driver in Kata container, `linux-headers` is required.
+This is a way to generate deb packages for `linux-headers`:
+
+> **Note**:
+> Run `make rpm-pkg` to build the rpm package.
+> Run `make deb-pkg` to build the deb package.
+>
+
+```sh
+$ cd kata-linux-5.15.23-89
+$ make deb-pkg
+```
+Before using the new guest kernel, please update the `kernel` parameters in
+ `configuration.toml`.
+
+```sh
+kernel = "/usr/share/kata-containers/vmlinuz-nvidia-gpu.container"
+```
+
+## NVIDIA GPU pass-through mode with Kata Containers
+
+Use the following steps to pass an NVIDIA GPU device in pass-through mode with Kata:
+
+1. Find the Bus-Device-Function (BDF) for GPU device on host:
+
+   ```sh
+   $ sudo lspci -nn -D | grep -i nvidia
+   0000:d0:00.0 3D controller [0302]: NVIDIA Corporation Device [10de:20b9] (rev a1)
+   ```
+
+   > PCI address `0000:d0:00.0` is assigned to the hardware GPU device.
+   > `10de:20b9` is the device ID of the hardware GPU device.
+
+2. Find the IOMMU group for the GPU device:
+
+   ```sh
+   $ BDF="0000:d0:00.0"
+   $ readlink -e /sys/bus/pci/devices/$BDF/iommu_group
+   ```
+
+   The previous output shows that the GPU belongs to IOMMU group 192. The next
+   step is to bind the GPU to the VFIO-PCI driver.
+
+   ```sh
+   $ BDF="0000:d0:00.0"
+   $ DEV="/sys/bus/pci/devices/$BDF"
+   $ echo "vfio-pci" > $DEV/driver_override
+   $ echo $BDF > $DEV/driver/unbind
+   $ echo $BDF > /sys/bus/pci/drivers_probe
+   # To return the device to the standard driver, we simply clear the
+   # driver_override and reprobe the device, ex:
+   $ echo > $DEV/preferred_driver
+   $ echo $BDF > $DEV/driver/unbind
+   $ echo $BDF > /sys/bus/pci/drivers_probe
+   ```
+
+3. Check the IOMMU group number under `/dev/vfio`:
+
+   ```sh
+   $ ls -l /dev/vfio
+   total 0
+   crw------- 1 zvonkok zvonkok 243,   0 Mar 18 03:06 192
+   crw-rw-rw- 1 root    root     10, 196 Mar 18 02:27 vfio
+   ```
+
+4. Start a Kata container with GPU device:
+
+   ```sh
+   # You may need to `modprobe vhost-vsock` if you get
+   # host system doesn't support vsock: stat /dev/vhost-vsock
+   $ sudo ctr --debug run --runtime "io.containerd.kata.v2"  --device /dev/vfio/192  --rm -t  "docker.io/library/archlinux:latest" arch uname -r
+   ```
+
+5. Run `lspci` within the container to verify the GPU device is seen in the list
+   of the PCI devices. Note the vendor-device id of the GPU (`10de:20b9`) in the `lspci` output.
+
+   ```sh
+   $ sudo ctr --debug run --runtime "io.containerd.kata.v2"  --device /dev/vfio/192  --rm -t  "docker.io/library/archlinux:latest" arch sh -c "lspci -nn | grep '10de:20b9'"
+   ```
+
+6. Additionally, you can check the PCI BARs space of ​​the NVIDIA GPU device in the container:
+
+   ```sh
+   $ sudo ctr --debug run --runtime "io.containerd.kata.v2"  --device /dev/vfio/192  --rm -t  "docker.io/library/archlinux:latest" arch sh -c "lspci -s 02:00.0 -vv | grep Region"
+   ```
+
+   > **Note**: If you see a message similar to the above, the BAR space of the NVIDIA
+   > GPU has been successfully allocated.
+
+## NVIDIA vGPU mode with Kata Containers
+
+NVIDIA vGPU is a licensed product on all supported GPU boards. A software license
+is required to enable all vGPU features within the guest VM.
+
+> **TODO**: Will follow up with instructions
+
+## Install NVIDIA Driver + Toolkit in Kata Containers Guest OS
+
+Consult the [Developer-Guide](https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/blob/main/docs/Developer-Guide.md#create-a-rootfs-image) on how to create a
+rootfs base image for a distribution of your choice. This is going to be used as
+a base for a NVIDIA enabled guest OS. Use the `EXTRA_PKGS` variable to install
+all the needed packages to compile the drivers. Also copy the kernel development
+packages from the previous `make deb-pkg` into `$ROOTFS_DIR`.
+
+```sh
+export EXTRA_PKGS="gcc make curl gnupg"
+```
+
+Having the `$ROOTFS_DIR` exported in the previous step we can now install all the
+need parts in the guest OS. In this case we have an Ubuntu based rootfs.
+
+First off all mount the special filesystems into the rootfs
+
+```sh
+$ sudo mount -t sysfs -o ro none ${ROOTFS_DIR}/sys
+$ sudo mount -t proc -o ro none ${ROOTFS_DIR}/proc
+$ sudo mount -t tmpfs none ${ROOTFS_DIR}/tmp
+$ sudo mount -o bind,ro /dev ${ROOTFS_DIR}/dev
+$ sudo mount -t devpts none ${ROOTFS_DIR}/dev/pts
+```
+
+Now we can enter `chroot`
+
+```sh
+$ sudo chroot ${ROOTFS_DIR}
+```
+
+Inside the rootfs one is going to install the drivers and toolkit to enable easy
+creation of GPU containers with Kata. We can also use this rootfs for any other
+container not specifically only for GPUs.
+
+As a prerequisite install the copied kernel development packages
+
+```sh
+$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
+```
+
+Get the driver run file, since we need to build the driver against a kernel that
+is not running on the host we need the ability to specify the exact version we
+want the driver to build against. Take the kernel version one used for building
+the NVIDIA kernel (`5.15.23-nvidia-gpu`).
+
+```sh
+$ wget https://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/510.54/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.54.run
+$ chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.54.run
+# Extract the source files so we can run the installer with arguments
+$ ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.54.run -x
+$ cd NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.54
+$ ./nvidia-installer -k 5.15.23-nvidia-gpu
+```
+Having the drivers installed we need to install the toolkit which will take care
+of providing the right bits into the container.
+
+```sh
+$ distribution=$(. /etc/os-release;echo $ID$VERSION_ID)
+$ curl -fsSL https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/gpgkey | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/nvidia-container-toolkit-keyring.gpg
+$ curl -s -L https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/$distribution/libnvidia-container.list | sed 's#deb https://#deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nvidia-container-toolkit-keyring.gpg] https://#g' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nvidia-container-toolkit.list
+$ apt update
+$ apt install nvidia-container-toolkit
+```
+
+Create the hook execution file for Kata:
+
+```
+# Content of $ROOTFS_DIR/usr/share/oci/hooks/prestart/nvidia-container-toolkit.sh
+
+#!/bin/bash -x
+
+/usr/bin/nvidia-container-toolkit -debug $@
+```
+
+As a last step one can do some cleanup of files or package caches. Build the
+rootfs and configure it for use with Kata according to the development guide.
+
+Enable the `guest_hook_path` in Kata's `configuration.toml`
+
+```sh
+guest_hook_path = "/usr/share/oci/hooks"
+```
+
+One has build a NVIDIA rootfs, kernel and now we can run any GPU container
+without installing the drivers into the container. Check NVIDIA device status
+with `nvidia-smi`
+
+```sh
+$  sudo ctr --debug run --runtime "io.containerd.kata.v2"  --device /dev/vfio/192  --rm -t "docker.io/nvidia/cuda:11.6.0-base-ubuntu20.04" cuda nvidia-smi

+```
+
+As a last step one can remove the additional packages and files that were added

-# Using Nvidia GPU device with Kata Containers
-
-An Nvidia GPU device can be passed to a Kata Containers container using GPU passthrough
-(Nvidia GPU pass-through mode) as well as GPU mediated passthrough (Nvidia vGPU mode). 
-
-Nvidia GPU pass-through mode, an entire physical GPU is directly assigned to one VM,
-bypassing the Nvidia Virtual GPU Manager. In this mode of operation, the GPU is accessed
-exclusively by the Nvidia driver running in the VM to which it is assigned.
-The GPU is not shared among VMs.
-
-Nvidia Virtual GPU (vGPU) enables multiple virtual machines (VMs) to have simultaneous,
-direct access to a single physical GPU, using the same Nvidia graphics drivers that are
-deployed on non-virtualized operating systems. By doing this, Nvidia vGPU provides VMs
-with unparalleled graphics performance, compute performance, and application compatibility,
-together with the cost-effectiveness and scalability brought about by sharing a GPU
-among multiple workloads.
-
-| Technology | Description | Behaviour | Detail |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| Nvidia GPU pass-through mode | GPU passthrough | Physical GPU assigned to a single VM | Direct GPU assignment to VM without limitation |
-| Nvidia vGPU mode | GPU sharing | Physical GPU shared by multiple VMs | Mediated passthrough |
-
-## Hardware Requirements
-Nvidia GPUs Recommended for Virtualization:
-
-- Nvidia Tesla (T4, M10, P6, V100 or newer)
-- Nvidia Quadro RTX 6000/8000
-
-## Host BIOS Requirements
-
-Some hardware requires a larger PCI BARs window, for example, Nvidia Tesla P100, K40m
-```
-$ lspci -s 04:00.0 -vv | grep Region
-      Region 0: Memory at c6000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
-      Region 1: Memory at 383800000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=16G] #above 4G
-      Region 3: Memory at 383c00000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=32M]
-```
-
-For large BARs devices, MMIO mapping above 4G address space should be `enabled`
-in the PCI configuration of the BIOS.
-
-Some hardware vendors use different name in BIOS, such as:
-
-- Above 4G Decoding
-- Memory Hole for PCI MMIO
-- Memory Mapped I/O above 4GB
-
-The following steps outline the workflow for using an Nvidia GPU with Kata.
-
-## Host Kernel Requirements
-The following configurations need to be enabled on your host kernel:
-
-- `CONFIG_VFIO`
-- `CONFIG_VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1`
-- `CONFIG_VFIO_MDEV`
-- `CONFIG_VFIO_MDEV_DEVICE`
-- `CONFIG_VFIO_PCI`
-
-Your host kernel needs to be booted with `intel_iommu=on` on the kernel command line.
-
-## Install and configure Kata Containers
-To use non-large BARs devices (for example, Nvidia Tesla T4), you need Kata version 1.3.0 or above.
-Follow the [Kata Containers setup instructions](../install/README.md)
-to install the latest version of Kata.
-
-To use large BARs devices (for example, Nvidia Tesla P100), you need Kata version 1.11.0 or above.
-
-The following configuration in the Kata `configuration.toml` file as shown below can work:
-
-Hotplug for PCI devices by `acpi_pcihp` (Linux's ACPI PCI Hotplug driver):
-```
-machine_type = "q35"
-
-hotplug_vfio_on_root_bus = false
-```
-
-Hotplug for PCIe devices by `pciehp` (Linux's PCIe Hotplug driver):
-```
-machine_type = "q35"
-
-hotplug_vfio_on_root_bus = true
-pcie_root_port = 1
-```
-
-## Build Kata Containers kernel with GPU support
-The default guest kernel installed with Kata Containers does not provide GPU support.
-To use an Nvidia GPU with Kata Containers, you need to build a kernel with the
-necessary GPU support.
-
-The following kernel config options need to be enabled:
-```
-# Support PCI/PCIe device hotplug (Required for large BARs device)
-CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE=y
-
-# Support for loading modules (Required for load Nvidia drivers)
-CONFIG_MODULES=y
-CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y
-
-# Enable the MMIO access method for PCIe devices (Required for large BARs device)
-CONFIG_PCI_MMCONFIG=y
-```
-
-The following kernel config options need to be disabled:
-```
-# Disable Open Source Nvidia driver nouveau
-# It conflicts with Nvidia official driver
-CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU=n
-```
-> **Note**: `CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU` is normally disabled by default.
-It is worth checking that it is not enabled in your kernel configuration to prevent any conflicts.
-
-
-Build the Kata Containers kernel with the previous config options,
-using the instructions described in [Building Kata Containers kernel](../../tools/packaging/kernel).
-For further details on building and installing guest kernels,
-see [the developer guide](../Developer-Guide.md#install-guest-kernel-images).
-
-There is an easy way to build a guest kernel that supports Nvidia GPU:
-```
-## Build guest kernel with ../../tools/packaging/kernel
-
-# Prepare (download guest kernel source, generate .config)
-$ ./build-kernel.sh -v 4.19.86 -g nvidia -f setup
-
-# Build guest kernel
-$ ./build-kernel.sh -v 4.19.86 -g nvidia build
-
-# Install guest kernel
-$ sudo -E ./build-kernel.sh -v 4.19.86 -g nvidia install
-/usr/share/kata-containers/vmlinux-nvidia-gpu.container -> vmlinux-4.19.86-70-nvidia-gpu
-/usr/share/kata-containers/vmlinuz-nvidia-gpu.container -> vmlinuz-4.19.86-70-nvidia-gpu
-```
-
-To build Nvidia Driver in Kata container, `kernel-devel` is required.  
-This is a way to generate rpm packages for `kernel-devel`:
-```
-$ cd kata-linux-4.19.86-68
-$ make rpm-pkg
-Output RPMs:
-~/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/kernel-devel-4.19.86_nvidia_gpu-1.x86_64.rpm
-```
-> **Note**:
-> - `kernel-devel` should be installed in Kata container before run Nvidia driver installer.
-> - Run `make deb-pkg` to build the deb package.
-
-Before using the new guest kernel, please update the `kernel` parameters in `configuration.toml`.
-```
-kernel = "/usr/share/kata-containers/vmlinuz-nvidia-gpu.container"
-```
-
-## Nvidia GPU pass-through mode with Kata Containers
-Use the following steps to pass an Nvidia GPU device in pass-through mode with Kata:
-
-1. Find the Bus-Device-Function (BDF) for GPU device on host:
-   ```
-   $ sudo lspci -nn -D | grep -i nvidia
-   0000:04:00.0 3D controller [0302]: NVIDIA Corporation Device [10de:15f8] (rev a1)
-   0000:84:00.0 3D controller [0302]: NVIDIA Corporation Device [10de:15f8] (rev a1)
-   ```
-   > PCI address `0000:04:00.0` is assigned to the hardware GPU device.
-   > `10de:15f8` is the device ID of the hardware GPU device.
-
-2. Find the IOMMU group for the GPU device:
-   ```
-   $ BDF="0000:04:00.0"
-   $ readlink -e /sys/bus/pci/devices/$BDF/iommu_group
-   /sys/kernel/iommu_groups/45
-   ```
-   The previous output shows that the GPU belongs to IOMMU group 45.
-
-3. Check the IOMMU group number under `/dev/vfio`:
-   ```
-   $ ls -l /dev/vfio
-   total 0
-   crw------- 1 root root 248,   0 Feb 28 09:57 45
-   crw------- 1 root root 248,   1 Feb 28 09:57 54
-   crw-rw-rw- 1 root root  10, 196 Feb 28 09:57 vfio
-   ```
-
-4. Start a Kata container with GPU device:
-   ```
-   $ sudo docker run -it --runtime=kata-runtime --cap-add=ALL --device /dev/vfio/45 centos /bin/bash
-   ```
-
-5. Run `lspci` within the container to verify the GPU device is seen in the list
-   of the PCI devices. Note the vendor-device id of the GPU (`10de:15f8`) in the `lspci` output.
-   ```
-   $ lspci -nn -D | grep '10de:15f8'
-   0000:01:01.0 3D controller [0302]: NVIDIA Corporation GP100GL [Tesla P100 PCIe 16GB] [10de:15f8] (rev a1)
-   ```
-
-6. Additionally, you can check the PCI BARs space of ​​the Nvidia GPU device in the container:
-   ```
-   $ lspci -s 01:01.0 -vv | grep Region
-		Region 0: Memory at c0000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=16M]
-		Region 1: Memory at 4400000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [disabled] [size=16G]
-		Region 3: Memory at 4800000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [disabled] [size=32M]
-   ```
-   > **Note**: If you see a message similar to the above, the BAR space of the Nvidia
-   > GPU has been successfully allocated.
-
-## Nvidia vGPU mode with Kata Containers
-
-Nvidia vGPU is a licensed product on all supported GPU boards. A software license
-is required to enable all vGPU features within the guest VM.
-
-> **Note**: There is no suitable test environment, so it is not written here.
-
-
-## Install Nvidia Driver in Kata Containers
-Download the official Nvidia driver from
-[https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx](https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx),
-for example `NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-418.87.01.run`.
-
-Install the `kernel-devel`(generated in the previous steps) for guest kernel:
-```
-$ sudo rpm -ivh kernel-devel-4.19.86_gpu-1.x86_64.rpm
-```
-
-Here is an example to extract, compile and install Nvidia driver:
-```
-## Extract
-$ sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-418.87.01.run -x
-
-## Compile and install (It will take some time)
-$ cd NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-418.87.01
-$ sudo ./nvidia-installer -a -q --ui=none \
- --no-cc-version-check \
- --no-opengl-files --no-install-libglvnd \
- --kernel-source-path=/usr/src/kernels/`uname -r`
-```
-
-Or just run one command line:
-```
-$ sudo sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-418.87.01.run -a -q --ui=none \
- --no-cc-version-check \
- --no-opengl-files --no-install-libglvnd \
- --kernel-source-path=/usr/src/kernels/`uname -r`
-```
-
-To view detailed logs of the installer:
-```
-$ tail -f /var/log/nvidia-installer.log
-```
-
-Load Nvidia driver module manually
-```
-# Optional（generate modules.dep and map files for Nvidia driver）
-$ sudo depmod
-
-# Load module
-$ sudo modprobe nvidia-drm
-
-# Check module
-$ lsmod | grep nvidia
-nvidia_drm             45056  0
-nvidia_modeset       1093632  1 nvidia_drm
-nvidia              18202624  1 nvidia_modeset

 # Kata Containers with SGX
 
-Intel® Software Guard Extensions (SGX) is a set of instructions that increases the security
+Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX) is a set of instructions that increases the security
 of applications code and data, giving them more protections from disclosure or modification.
 
-> **Note:** At the time of writing this document, SGX patches have not landed on the Linux kernel
-> project, so specific versions for guest and host kernels must be installed to enable SGX.
+This document guides you to run containers with SGX enclaves with Kata Containers in Kubernetes.
 
-## Check if SGX is enabled
+## Preconditions
 
-Run the following command to check if your host supports SGX.
+* Intel SGX capable bare metal nodes
+* Host kernel Linux 5.13 or later with SGX and SGX KVM enabled:
 
 ```sh
-$ grep -o sgx /proc/cpuinfo
+$ grep SGX /boot/config-`uname -r`
+CONFIG_X86_SGX=y
+CONFIG_X86_SGX_KVM=y
 ```
 
-Continue to the following section if the output of the above command is empty,
-otherwise continue to section [Install Guest kernel with SGX support](#install-guest-kernel-with-sgx-support)
+* Kubernetes cluster configured with:
+   * [`kata-deploy`](../../tools/packaging/kata-deploy) based Kata Containers installation
+   * [Intel SGX Kubernetes device plugin](https://github.com/intel/intel-device-plugins-for-kubernetes/tree/main/cmd/sgx_plugin#deploying-with-pre-built-images)
 
-## Install Host kernel with SGX support
+> Note: Kata Containers supports creating VM sandboxes with Intel® SGX enabled
+> using [cloud-hypervisor](https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/cloud-hypervisor/) and [QEMU](https://www.qemu.org/) VMMs only.
 
-The following commands were tested on Fedora 32, they might work on other distros too.
-
-```sh
-$ git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/intel/kvm-sgx
-$ pushd kvm-sgx
-$ cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) .config
-$ yes "" | make oldconfig
-$ # In the following step, enable: INTEL_SGX and INTEL_SGX_VIRTUALIZATION
-$ make menuconfig
-$ make -j$(($(nproc)-1)) bzImage
-$ make -j$(($(nproc)-1)) modules
-$ sudo make modules_install
-$ sudo make install
-$ popd
-$ sudo reboot
-```
-
-> **Notes:**
-> * Run: `mokutil --sb-state` to check whether secure boot is enabled, if so, you will need to sign the kernel.
-> * You'll lose SGX support when a new distro kernel is installed and the system rebooted.
-
-Once you have restarted your system with the new brand Linux Kernel with SGX support, run
-the following command to make sure it's enabled. If the output is empty, go to the BIOS
-setup and enable SGX manually.
-
-```sh
-$ grep -o sgx /proc/cpuinfo
-```
-
-## Install Guest kernel with SGX support
-
-Install the guest kernel in the Kata Containers directory, this way it can be used to run
-Kata Containers.
-
-```sh
-$ curl -LOk https://github.com/devimc/kvm-sgx/releases/download/v0.0.1/kata-virtiofs-sgx.tar.gz
-$ sudo tar -xf kata-virtiofs-sgx.tar.gz -C /usr/share/kata-containers/
-$ sudo sed -i 's|kernel =|kernel = "/usr/share/kata-containers/vmlinux-virtiofs-sgx.container"|g' \

-## Run Kata Containers with SGX enabled
+### Kata Containers Configuration
 
 Before running a Kata Container make sure that your version of `crio` or `containerd`
 supports annotations.
+
 For `containerd` check in `/etc/containerd/config.toml` that the list of `pod_annotations` passed
 to the `sandbox` are: `["io.katacontainers.*", "sgx.intel.com/epc"]`.
 
-> `sgx.yaml`
+## Usage
+
+With the following sample job deployed using `kubectl apply -f`:
+
+> Note: Change the `runtimeClassName` option accordingly, only `kata-clh` and `kata-qemu` support Intel® SGX.

+### Notes
 
-[1]: github.com/cloud-hypervisor/cloud-hypervisor/
+* The Kata VM's SGX Encrypted Page Cache (EPC) memory size is based on the sum of `sgx.intel.com/epc`
+resource requests within the pod.
+* `init-sgx` can be removed from the YAML configuration file if the Kata rootfs is modified with the
+necessary udev rules.
+   See the [note on SGX backwards compatibility](https://github.com/intel/intel-device-plugins-for-kubernetes/tree/main/cmd/sgx_plugin#backwards-compatibility-note).
+* Intel SGX DCAP attestation is known to work from Kata sandboxes but it comes with one limitation: If
+the Intel SGX `aesm` daemon runs on the bare metal node and DCAP `out-of-proc` attestation is used,
+containers within the Kata sandbox cannot get the access to the host's `/var/run/aesmd/aesm.sock`
+because socket passthrough is not supported. An alternative is to deploy the `aesm` daemon as a side-car
+container.
+* Projects like [Gramine Shielded Containers (GSC)](https://gramine-gsc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) are
+also known to work. For GSC specifically, the Kata guest kernel needs to have the `CONFIG_NUMA=y`
+enabled and at least one CPU online when running the GSC container.
