The same way a caller of "kata-runtime kill 12345" expects the container 12345 to be killed, the same call to a container representing a sandbox should actually kill the sandbox, meaning it would be stopped after the container has been killed. This way, the caller knows the VM is stopped after kill returns. This is an issue raised by Openshift and Kubernetes tests. They call into delete way after the call to kill has been submitted, and in the meantime they kill all processes related to the container, meaning they do kill the VM before we could do it ourselves. In this case, the delete responsible of stopping the VM comes too late and it returns an error when trying to destroy the sandbox while trying to communicate with the agent since the VM is not here anymore. This commit addresses this issue by letting "kill" call into StopSandbox() if the command relates to a sandbox instead of a simple container.

Introduction
kata-runtime
, referred to as "the runtime", is the Command-Line Interface
(CLI) part of the Kata Containers runtime component. It leverages the
virtcontainers
package to provide a high-performance standards-compliant runtime that creates
hardware-virtualized containers.
The runtime is both OCI-compatible and CRI-O-compatible, allowing it to work seamlessly with both Docker and Kubernetes respectively.
License
The code is licensed under an Apache 2.0 license.
See the license file for further details.
Platform support
Kata Containers currently works on systems supporting the following technologies:
Hardware requirements
The runtime has a built-in command to determine if your host system is capable of running a Kata Container:
$ kata-runtime kata-check
Note:
If you run the previous command as the
root
user, further checks will be performed (e.g. it will check if another incompatible hypervisor is running):$ sudo kata-runtime kata-check
Quick start for developers
See the developer guide.
Configuration
The runtime uses a TOML format configuration file called configuration.toml
.
The file contains comments explaining all options.
Note:
The initial values in the configuration file provide a good default configuration. You might need to modify this file if you have specialist needs.
Since the runtime supports a
stateless system,
it checks for this configuration file in multiple locations, two of which are
built in to the runtime. The default location is
/usr/share/defaults/kata-containers/configuration.toml
for a standard
system. However, if /etc/kata-containers/configuration.toml
exists, this
takes priority.
The command below lists the full paths to the configuration files that the runtime attempts to load. The first path that exists is used:
$ kata-runtime --kata-show-default-config-paths
Aside from the built-in locations, it is possible to specify the path to a
custom configuration file using the --kata-config
option:
$ kata-runtime --kata-config=/some/where/configuration.toml ...
The runtime will log the full path to the configuration file it is using. See the logging section for further details.
To see details of your systems runtime environment (including the location of the configuration file being used), run:
$ kata-runtime kata-env
Logging
The runtime provides --log=
and --log-format=
options. However, the
runtime always logs to the system log (syslog
or journald
).
To view runtime log output:
$ sudo journalctl -t kata-runtime
For detailed information and analysis on obtaining logs for other system components, see the documentation for the kata-log-parser tool.
Debugging
See the debugging section of the developer guide.
