Official Koji documentation can be found at: https://docs.pagure.org/koji/


Important.png Note:
This is a work in progress.....

And some components do not work yet.

I am now scripting this, using the ClearLinux koji build scripts as a basis. see https://src.koozali.org/smedev/smeserver-koji


I'll document what I have done so far, what is working and what is not.

When the build farm is working, we'll add in how to configure it for building smeserver (packages, repositories and ISOs etc.)

Building blocks

A Koji Build farm is comprised of a number of components that work together.

Major Koji components:

  • hub
  • web server
  • build servers
  • build daemon
  • Dnf|Yum repository creation and maintenance daemon

You need at least the one server which can perform all functions, or split it into a hub plus 1+ build servers.

In our example build, we will have 2 servers.

  • hub - which will run the hub, web and dnf|Yum repository daemon
  • build server - there can be multiple of these, but we'll just do 1 to start with

These servers will be based on bare Rocky 8 - minimal install, servers.

Install

This is now scripted.

Create your hub and build servers (Rocky 8 minimal install).


  Note:
You can run both the hub and build on the one server, just use the hub server FQDN when prompted for the Build Server FQDN.


On both servers enable the network and name the servers (the servers need to be accessible via their FQDN's, so either via DNS or you need to add them to your /etc/hosts files).

It's also a good idea to update them to the latest 

nmtui
dnf update

Log into the hub server, download and run the install script 

curl https://src.koozali.org/smedev/smeserver-koji/raw/branch/master/install-koji-farm.sh > install-koji-farm.sh
chmod o+x install-koji-farm.sh
./install-koji-farm.sh

You will be prompted for various items

  • ssh values (e.g. Country, State, City, Organization, Organisational Unit)
  • Build server FQDN (leaving it blank will use the Hub FQDN to have everything on the one server). It will loop and allow you to add additional servers.
  • to accept the build server ssl signature
  • for the root password on the Hub server

The web interface will be available via http://<your hub server>/koji

You can add additional build servers later, via

koji-add-builder.sh <FQDN of build server> [debug]

Updates can be made via the kojiadmin user on the hub 

su - kojiadmin
koji help

The long way

Hub/Web Server

OS: Rocky 8.8-minimal

Memory: 8GB

Disk: 20GB (but I'm only using ~25%)

FQDN: koji.koozali.org

You'll need to set up your network: either during install or post install (enable adapter, FQDN, IP address, Gateway, DNS)

Log into your server as root and

nmtui
ip addr
ping google.com

Let's bring the server up to date

dnf update

I installed and configured some basic tools and settings to help manage and debug the server (Cockpit can be accessed at http://<ip address or name>:9090)

systemctl enable --now cockpit.socket
systemctl start cockpit.socket
dnf config-manager --set-enabled powertools
dnf install epel-release
dnf install policycoreutils-python-utils
dnf install setools-console
dnf install rsyslog
dnf install setroubleshoot-server
reboot
SSL preparations

We'll be using ssl certificates so let's create the koji ssl working directories and edit the koji ssl config file

Log back into your server as root and

mkdir -p /etc/pki/koji/{certs,private,confs}
cd /etc/pki/koji

and create ssl.cnf

cat <<_EOT > /etc/pki/koji/ssl.cnf

_EOT
  Note:
I suggest you change the defaults in [req_distinguished_name] to yours to make it easier when generating certs....


Create the ca key for the server

cd /etc/pki/koji
touch index.txt
echo 01 > serial
openssl genrsa -out private/koji_ca_cert.key 2048
openssl req -config ssl.cnf -new -x509 -days 3650 -key private/koji_ca_cert.key -out koji_ca_cert.crt -extensions v3_ca

You will have to enter your details, but make sure the commonName is the full server name (e.g. koji.koozali.org).


Create a script to make certs and make it executable

mkdir -p ~/bin
cat <<_EOT > ~/bin/koji_make_cert.sh
#!/bin/bash
# if you change your certificate authority name to something else you will
# need to change the caname value to reflect the change.
caname=koji

# user is equal to parameter one or the first argument when you actually
# run the script
user=\$1

openssl genrsa -out private/\${user}.key 2048
cat ssl.cnf | sed 's/insert_hostname/'\${user}'/'> ssl2.cnf
openssl req -config ssl2.cnf -new -nodes -out certs/\${user}.csr -key private/\${user}.key
openssl ca -config ssl2.cnf -keyfile private/\${caname}_ca_cert.key -cert \${caname}_ca_cert.crt \
    -out certs/\${user}.crt -outdir certs -infiles certs/\${user}.csr
cat certs/\${user}.crt private/\${user}.key > \${user}.pem
mv ssl2.cnf confs/\${user}-ssl.cnf
_EOT
chmod a+x ~/bin/koji_make_cert.sh

Lets create some certificates and add our admin user

  Note:
The koji documentation states that the kojihub and kojiweb certs must have the fully qualified server name as the common name (e.g. koji.koozali.org). You can differentiate them via the organisation unit name (e.g. kojihub and kojiweb).

For the others, the common name should be the login name for that cert (e.g. kojira, kojid, kojiadmin). 


koji_make_cert.sh kojihub
koji_make_cert.sh kojiweb
koji_make_cert.sh kojira
koji_make_cert.sh kojid
koji_make_cert.sh kojiadmin
Koji Hub

Install koji hub and pre-requisites

dnf install koji-hub mod_ssl
dnf module enable postgresql:10
dnf install postgresql-server
dnf install koji
POSTGRES setup

As root we need to do the initial config

postgresql-setup --initdb --unit postgresql
systemctl enable postgresql --now

We have a different account for managing the database (i.e. create the koji user and add a password)

useradd koji
passwd koji

Create the koji user and database and add password for user

su - postgres
createuser --no-superuser --no-createrole --no-createdb koji
createdb -O koji koji
psql -c "alter user koji with encrypted password 'mypassword';"
logout

Create the koji db schema from the included script (need to be the koji user)

su - koji
psql koji koji < /usr/share/doc/koji*/docs/schema.sql
exit

Authorize the Koji-hub service to PostgreSQL. As the hub and DB are on the same server we are using Unix sockets for connection

nano /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf

and add the following lines (before the other settings)

#TYPE   DATABASE    USER    CIDR-ADDRESS      METHOD
local   koji        koji                       trust
local   all         postgres                   peer

and blank out the listen address (we are using sockets, not via IP)

nano /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf

by changing this line

listen_addresses = ''

and reload the PostgreSQL daemon

systemctl reload postgresql

add the initial admin user manually to the user database (we need to be the koji user to do this)

We can add additional users and change privileges of those users via the koji command line tool after this

  Note:
For the user_perms, we check the user_id of the user we created.

If it's not 1, the user_perms line should be

insert into user_perms (user_id, perm_id, creator_id) values (<user_id>, 1, <user_id>); 


su - koji
psql
koji=> insert into users (name, status, usertype) values ('kojiadmin', 0, 0);
koji=> select * from users;
koji=> insert into user_perms (user_id, perm_id, creator_id) values (1, 1, 1);
\q
exit
Koji hub setup

We can now set up the hub itself.

As we are using SSL certificates, we need to tweak the httpd configs

nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/kojihub.conf

and uncomment the lines as below

# uncomment this to enable authentication via SSL client certificates
<Location /kojihub/ssllogin>
#         SSLVerifyClient require
#         SSLVerifyDepth  10
        SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</Location>

Setup the SSL certificates required

nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf

and add these lines and comment out any existing sample lines that do NOT point at valid certs etc.

SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/koji/certs/kojihub.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/pki/koji/private/kojihub.key
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/pki/koji/koji_ca_cert.crt
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/pki/koji/koji_ca_cert.crt

and uncomment the following lines

SSLVerifyClient require
SSLVerifyDepth  10

Point Koji Hub to the database

nano /etc/koji-hub/hub.conf

and set these parameters. Make sure that DBHost and DBPass are commented out as we are using the DB on the same host 

DBName = koji
DBUser = koji

# If PostgreSQL is on another host, set that here:
#DBHost = db.example.com
#DBPass = mypassword

KojiDir = /mnt/koji
LoginCreatesUser = On
KojiWebURL = http://koji.koozali.org/koji

ProxyDNs should be set to the DN of the kojiweb certificate. For example: 

DNUsernameComponent = CN
ProxyDNs = /C=AU/ST=Victoria/L=Melbourne/O=Batley/OU=koji.koozali.org/CN=koji.koozali.org

SELinux changes to allow access

setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect_db 1

Restart httpd

systemctl restart httpd
Create the koji skeleton file system
cd /mnt
mkdir koji
cd koji
mkdir {packages,repos,work,scratch,repos-dist}
chown apache:apache *

and tweak SELinux to allow apache write access

setsebool -P allow_httpd_anon_write=1
semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_rw_t "/mnt/koji(/.*)?"
restorecon -r -v /mnt/koji

Make sure that the firewall will allow http & https access

firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=http
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=https
firewall-cmd --reload
Koji CLI client

Let's configure the cli client. The system setting is in /etc/koji.conf, individual user settings can be set in ~/.koji/config

nano /etc/koji.conf

We define the urls of each component and tell it where to find the SSL certificates (we copied them across earlier)

[koji]

;url of XMLRPC server
server = http://koji.koozali.org/kojihub

;url of web interface
weburl = https://koji.koozali.org/koji

;url of package download site
topurl = http://koji.koozali.org/kojifiles

;path to the koji top directory
topdir = /mnt/koji

; configuration for SSL athentication

;client certificate
cert = ~/.koji/client.crt

;certificate of the CA that issued the HTTP server certificate
serverca = ~/.koji/serverca.crt

Now we create the koji administration user (kojiadmin) and set up the certs. We need to be the kojiadmin user to get the right permissions when we copy over the required certs, so...

useradd kojiadmin
su - kojiadmin
mkdir ~/.koji
cp /etc/pki/koji/kojiadmin.pem ~/.koji/client.crt   # NOTE: It is IMPORTANT you use the PEM and NOT the CRT
cp /etc/pki/koji/koji_ca_cert.crt ~/.koji/clientca.crt
cp /etc/pki/koji/koji_ca_cert.crt ~/.koji/serverca.crt
chmod 0600 ~/.koji/*.crt

Test the connection

koji moshimoshi

you should see

zdravstvuite, kojiadmin!

You are using the hub at https://koji.koozali.org/kojihub
Authenticated via client certificate /home/kojiadmin/.koji/client.crt

and don't forget to logout from the kojiadmin user :)

exit
Koji Web Service

Install the koji web components

dnf install koji-web mod_ssl

edit the web config file to point at the right urls and SSL certificates

nano /etc/kojiweb/web.conf

Please insert a random string into the secret (replace CHANGE_ME)

[web]
SiteName = koji
# KojiTheme =

# Necessary urls
KojiHubURL = http://koji.koozali.org/kojihub
KojiFilesURL = http://koji.koozali.org/kojifiles

## Kerberos authentication options
; WebPrincipal = koji/web@EXAMPLE.COM
; WebKeytab = /etc/httpd.keytab
; WebCCache = /var/tmp/kojiweb.ccache

## SSL authentication options
WebCert = /etc/kojiweb/client.crt
KojiHubCA = /etc/kojiweb/clientca.crt

LoginTimeout = 72

# This must be set before deployment
Secret = CHANGE_ME

LibPath = /usr/share/koji-web/lib

Copy the certificates into the /etc/kojiweb dir and give the correct permissions

cp /etc/pki/koji/kojiweb.pem /etc/kojiweb/client.crt
cp /etc/pki/koji/koji_ca_cert.crt /etc/kojiweb/clientca.crt
cp /etc/pki/koji/koji_ca_cert.crt /etc/kojiweb/serverca.crt
chmod 0600 /etc/kojiweb/*.crt

Edit the httpd file 

nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/kojiweb.conf

and uncomment the required ssl options

# uncomment this to enable authentication via SSL client certificates
<Location /koji/login>
#     SSLVerifyClient require
#     SSLVerifyDepth  10
     SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</Location>

Restart the httpd daemon

systemctl restart httpd

Koji Build Servers

For this exercise I only created 1 build server. You can have as many as you like...

OS: Rocky 8.8-minimal

Memory: 8GB

Disk: 20GB (can apparently use a lot of disk, depending on how active a build server it is)

FQDN: build1.koozali.org

Koji Hub setup for build server

First off, set up some items on the koji hub for your build server/s

Create a ssl cert for the build server with CN=build1.koozali.org

koji_make_cert.sh build1.koozali.org

Add the build server into the koji database

su - kojiadmin
koji add-host build1.koozali.org x86_64 noarch
koji add-host-to-channel build1.koozali.org createrepo
exit

We'll want the build servers to have access to the koji filesystem via nfs, so on the koji hub server (koji.koozali.org)

dnf install nfs-utils
systemctl enable --now nfs-server
systemctl start nfs-server
nano /etc/exports

we only have one build server, but you can add additional build servers to the line, separated by a space

/mnt/koji build1.koozali.org(rw,sync,root_squash)

export, verify and allow Apache access via SELinux

exportfs -ra
exportfs -v
setsebool -P httpd_use_nfs=1

Allow nfs access through the firewall

firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=nfs
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=mountd
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=rpc-bind
firewall-cmd --reload
Build Server setup

You'll need to set up your network: You can do this during the install or post install (ensure network activated, IP address, FQDN, Gateway, DNS)

Log into your build server as root and

nmtui
ip addr
ping google.com

Let's bring the server up to date

dnf update

Add the epel repository and some tools to help with debugging (cockpit available at http://<IP addr or FQDN>:9090

systemctl enable --now cockpit.socket
systemctl start cockpit.socket
dnf config-manager --set-enabled powertools
dnf install epel-release
dnf install rsyslog
dnf install setroubleshoot-server

Install the koji build daemon

dnf install koji-builder

Edit the kojid config file

nano /etc/kojid/kojid.conf

Point the builder at your koji hub and setup user/SSL credentials

; The directory root where work data can be found from the koji hub
topdir=/mnt/koji

; The directory root for temporary storage
workdir=/tmp/koji

; The URL for the xmlrpc server
server=http://koji.koozali.org/kojihub
user=build1.koozali.org

; The URL for the file access
topurl=http://koji.koozali.org/kojifiles

;client certificate
cert = /etc/kojid/client.crt

;certificate of the CA that issued the HTTP server certificate
serverca = /etc/kojid/serverca.crt

Copy over your ssl certs from your koji hub and set their correct permissions

scp root@koji.koozali.org:/etc/pki/koji/build1.koozali.org.pem /etc/kojid/client.crt
scp root@koji.koozali.org:/etc/pki/koji/koji_ca_cert.crt /etc/kojid/serverca.crt
chmod 0600 /etc/kojid/*.crt

Enable and start the kojid service

systemctl enable kojid --now
systemctl start kojid
