ACRN + Kata Containers (and 'acrnctl')


Geoffroy Van Cutsem
 

Hi folks, Vijay,

The ACRN + Kata Containers configuration (described here [1]) includes a definition for 'ctlpath' that points at the 'acrnctl' binary. That binary is only built and installed for the debug version of ACRN (see also [2] for more details), which means you cannot run Kata Containers with a released version of ACRN today. I think we need to solve this and I can see two ways:
* Kata Containers does not really use that binary (and we can get rid of its definition) OR
* We make sure 'acrnctl' is also built and installed for a RELEASE=1 build

What would be the right way to fix this?
