# OpenArena for Unikraft
2+
This is the port of OpenArena for Unikraft as external library.
3+
4+
## Build
5+
OpenArena depends on the following extern libraries, that need to
6+
be added to `Makefile`:
7+
8+
* `libc`, e.g. `musl`
9+
* compression library, e.g. `libzlib`
10+
* network stack, e.g. `lwip`
11+
12+
Before you proceed to writing your own application, you can use the `main()`
13+
function provided in the Nginx glue code by enabling it in its configuration
14+
menu.
15+
16+
## Root filesystem
17+
### Creating the filesystem
18+
OpenArena needs a filesystem which should contain its configuration files for the server, along with textures files. Therefore, the filesystem needs to be created before
19+
running the VM. You can find an example in the `catalog-core` entry dedicated to OpenArena.
20+
21+
### Using the filesystem
22+
Mounting the filesystem is a transparent operation. All you have to do
23+
is to provide the right Qemu parameters in order for Unikraft to mount
24+
the filesystem. We will use the cpio support for filesystems and for
25+
this you will need to use the following parameters:
26+
27+
```bash
28+
-initrd initrd.cpio \
29+
-append "vfs.fstab=[\"initrd0:/:extract::ramfs=1:\"]"
30+
```
31+
32+
To enable cpio, you'll need to select the following `Config.uk` entries:
33+
34+
```bash
35+
select LIBUKCPIO
36+
select LIBDEVFS
37+
select LIBDEVFS_AUTOMOUNT
38+
select LIBDEVFS_DEVSTDOUT
39+
select LIBVFSCORE
40+
select LIBVFSCORE_AUTOMOUNT_UP
41+
```
42+
43+
## Further information
44+
Please refer to the `README.md` as well as the documentation in the `docs/`
45+
subdirectory of the main unikraft repository.
