[Feature request] Linux ARM support #952

DylanVanAssche · 2019-06-29T18:56:57Z

It would be nice to get the Mullvad VPN app and daemon running on ARM platforms.
Support for armv7hl and aarch64 would be appreciated!

This is ideal for using Mullvad as a VPN on DIY NAS systems. Most of these setup have some kind of SBC like a Raspberry Pi or Odroid running an ARM processor.

You should be able to build the system service and the CLI for these platforms pretty easily. We have experimentally built the mullvad-daemon and mullvad-cli on a Raspberry PI running Raspbian a while back, and it worked. I have no idea how the Electron frontend would handle it, or if it would work at all. But for a NAS system or similar you probably just want the CLI anyway I assume.

Sadly we can't prioritize building and distributing ready made binaries for more platforms at the moment, but we hope to expand on this in the future.

DylanVanAssche · 2019-07-01T12:54:53Z

The CLI daemon is perfectly fine for my NAS. I will try to build it on my NAS and let you know if it worked :)

DylanVanAssche · 2019-07-02T17:12:42Z

I tried to build the daemon with the instructions from the README. I used the 2019.5 tag from the repository.
However, the build fails:

I checked and made sure that the libmnl and libnftnl libraries are installed on my Ubunty 18.04 LTS ARM installation. I also installed the developer packages -dev, just in case.

faern · 2019-07-03T08:02:01Z

Ah, Ok. Yeah it won't help to install the libraries to your system. We use our own bundled versions that we have statically compiled. These exist in a submodule in dist-assets/binaries. Check so you actually have this checked out? Do you have files in dist-assets/binaries/linux/?

So.. These libraries must be built for ARM then as well I guess. Same goes for OpenSSL and OpenVPN. Sadly this complicates stuff a bit. But the README in the binaries submodule (dist-assets/binaries/README.md) should contain instructions for all of this.

Remember that to do this you must recursively check out all submodules now, the shallow clone from the README you followed won't be enough now since you need the libnftnl and openssl sources etc, which in turn are submodules to the binaries submodule.

I hope you get it to work.

faern · 2019-07-03T08:21:51Z

If you manage to get it to work it would be very appreciated if you posted here how you did it. That way it can help others before we release any official builds. It could also help us speed up the implementation of doing these builds officially :)

DylanVanAssche · 2019-07-03T16:53:16Z

Hmmmm, yeah that requires to rebuild each bundled library.
Let see where I get and I will document the process here anyway.

If I get stuck, I will let you know :)

EDIT: dist-assets/binaries is empty :(

Run git submodule update --init --recursive

This is the first library that fails the build process. It complains about a too old version of the library.
I tried to checkout the master branch instead (and build the library there), but the same message appears. Am I doing something wrong, or is the library really outdated?

These are my build steps:

cd mullvadvpn-app/dist-assets/binaries/libnftnl
sh autogen.sh
./configure
make -j8

faern · 2019-07-07T21:24:31Z

Have you made sure it did produce/you copied? dist-assets/binaries/linux/libnftnl.a?

This is what our own makefile should do for you if you just

cd dist-assets/binaries
make libnftnl

like the binaries repo readme states

DylanVanAssche · 2019-07-12T07:45:17Z

Alright I tried to build libnftnl, openvpn and update_openssl.
Unfortunately, all 3 builds are failing...

libnftnl

cp libnftnl/src/.libs/libnftnl.a linux/
cp: cannot stat 'libnftnl/src/.libs/libnftnl.a': No such file or directory
Makefile:143: recipe for target 'libnftnl' failed
make: *** [libnftnl] Error 1

Libnftnl compiles all the way, but at the end this error occurs. For some reason, the library file isn't created?

openvpn & update_openssl

Librebowski · 2020-04-06T03:18:45Z

I too would love to see an official Raspberry Pi build

faern · 2020-04-06T07:28:53Z

All errors posted are from building nftnl-rs, our own Linux firewall crate. Apparently it does not support arm. This is unfortunate and should probably be fixed.

kevinstadler · 2020-04-10T14:04:51Z

+1 on this, I just ran into the very same compilation error trying to build the app on an Orange Pi Zero (basically a Chinese clone of the Raspberry Pi, armv7 architecture).

@faern could you give any more details on how you previously managed to compile mullvad-cli on a Pi?

faern · 2020-04-14T12:38:04Z

I suspect last time we successfully built it for ARM was before this functionality was added to nftnl-rs.

alfredoivan · 2020-04-16T00:12:15Z

I suspect last time we successfully built it for ARM was before this functionality was added to nftnl-rs.

do you know which version is the latest you think it would compile successfully? as-in, before addition of nftnl-rs functionality

faern · 2020-04-16T09:47:47Z

I have no idea. I have never built nftnl-rs on ARM myself. Compare the errors above with the git history maybe? But it does not matter much. This app needs the latest version now. So reverting is in no way possible. What needs to be done is to fix the casting that fails to use type aliases that are properly adapted for all platforms.

dlon · 2020-04-21T08:30:56Z

Unless there are other issues as well, you might use version 0.3 of the nftnl crate, which builds on arm. I.e., update the Cargo.toml files to use this version.

faern · 2020-04-23T08:32:53Z

We upgraded our nftnl dependency to version 0.3 in #1673. Try building the master branch of this repository on ARM now and see if it can proceed further.

manderss99 · 2020-05-06T04:06:04Z

got much further this time, on a raspberry pi 4 on raspbian
any ideas?

faern · 2020-05-06T09:27:50Z

Yeah so the app depends on a number of external things not part of the Rust build chain. For example WireGuard. You will have to check wireguard/build-wireguard-go.sh and see if you can adjust it. Currently if it runs on Linux it is hardcoded to build x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.

There are probably many more places like this you will run into. The app is kind of built for 64 bit x86 at the moment :/

I have managed to build and use mullvad-app on Manjaro Linux on a RPi4 (aarch64) once, if I remember correctly, it was 2020.4-1. I have used the existing Arch Linux AUR packages, I have only updated the PKBUILD file, adding 'aarch64' to the architecture list. It did not manage to generate .deb file, but everything else was fine, I have manually copied the binaries to the system and successfully ran the app.
However, this happened only one time. :|
The latest version, even the beta git release fails with the 'talpid-core' compilation error, as mentioned previously.
It would be nice to figure out how to build every component to the native architecture, perhaps it's just a matter of correctly setting the architecture in the build scripts.
Unfortunately, I don't have enough experience to do this, but I will try to look into it.

Note:
Later I have noticed that the TARGET architecture for Linux is set to x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu in mullvadvpn-app/env.sh. On Manjaro ARM RPi4 it should be aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu.
Anyway, I hope in time there will be a aarch64 build for this app.

The following is a bit off-topic, but it wasn't obvious for me and may help others.

You can actually to connect to Mullvad without using the official app or command-line interface at all. You can configure a Wireguard or OpenVPN client to connect directly to their servers. See instructions here: https://mullvad.net/en/help/tag/other-vpn-software/

I just tested on a Pinebook Pro (ARM architecture), and adding the provided Wireguard configuration to NetworkManager works perfectly.

Of course having the official app work on ARM would be nice, but it's not required to be able to use the VPN.

Hey Robin, thanks for the follow-up. I was aware of these options, both Wireguard and OpenVPN work on ARM. Right now I have configured OpenVPN to connect to the Mullvad servers on my Raspberry Pi. However, in the past, I have experienced problems with WG and OpenVPN, dns leaks or connection hangs on boot or on network connection change (ex. WiFi->Eth). None of these were happening when using mullvadvpn-app, this is why I would have liked to be able to build mullvadvpn-app on RPi, especially that I have managed to achieve this with an earlier version. Anyway, supporting another platform is not a walk in the park, so I will patiently wait and hope :) Cheers!

With Apple moving to ARM processors I'm guessing this will get done soonish.

natis1 · 2021-06-17T05:29:02Z

I'm able to get past the wg stuff by forcing it to build for aarch64 in env.sh. However I cannot get past:

Error: Command failed: bash ./scripts/build-proto.sh
./scripts/build-proto.sh: line 37: mullvadvpn-app/gui/node_modules/.bin/grpc_tools_node_protoc: No such file or directory

Apparently grpc requires x86_64. Would it be possible to compile mullvad without grpc while they work on support? See: grpc/grpc#24002

pinkisemils · 2021-06-18T09:07:24Z

No, but what we're doing is we're building the GRPC code on an x86-64 host and then copying the generated code over to an arm64 host for a build.

rcunn87 · 2021-07-05T02:21:43Z

Looks like grpc supports arm now

StellarOrbit · 2021-07-17T18:02:36Z

Is there any progress on this? I use mullvad and would love to be able to use mullvad on my arm laptop

raksooo · 2021-07-22T09:44:04Z

@rcunn87 We're using grpc-tools and as far as I can tell they still don't distribute ARM binaries and don't seem interested to do so either.

CalfCrusher · 2021-08-07T13:59:29Z

Please support arm arch

natis1 · 2021-08-07T19:13:53Z

It claims to be prebuilt for everything but their ruby module https://grpc.io/blog/grpc-on-arm64/

StellarOrbit · 2021-08-08T18:41:07Z

Hopefully they can get that ironed out soonish. I am down to help, but I am no programmer

raksooo · 2021-08-16T08:13:39Z

@natis1 To clarify what I meant above. gRPC works on ARM64. What @pinkisemils talked about above is grpc-tools, which is used to generate the TypeScript code from our proto-definitions, and this doesn't run on ARM. This can be worked around as described above. More detailed instructions are provided in the our readme https://github.com/mullvad/mullvadvpn-app#apple-arm64-aka-apple-silicon.

More info about why grpc-tools don't support ARM64 can be found here: grpc/grpc-node#1405

fooness · 2021-12-18T21:34:03Z

Are there any news regarding ARM support?

faern · 2021-12-20T08:24:44Z

Sadly no. We have not taken the time to build the dependencies we need there yet.

JBMedeiros · 2022-02-23T03:09:58Z

Please do it. Thanks

Kabouik · 2022-03-09T03:37:15Z

As a new Mullvab user, I'd love to see ARM builds too (at least for the CLI tool, missing the GUI would not be a big deal for me). ARM devices are now very widespread and most of the devices I would use Mullvab on are ARM. OpenVPN can work until then, but the flexibility of the CLI or GUI clients would be a lot more convenient.

ghost · 2022-05-13T06:53:57Z

The interface looks like it would work well with the PinePhone already, just need an arm64 build

xrishox · 2022-08-02T01:30:40Z

would love to see arm support added. now there is a serious number of arm devices out there that people are actually using like the pi and all of the new mac devices it would seem like having the gui tool available would be awesome. fortunately you can still grab openvpn config files, but that certainly isnt optimal and lacks a number of features.

fooness · 2022-08-02T08:01:37Z

[…] it would seem like having the gui tool available would be awesome.

Well, even the mullvad CLI client, which I think this thread initially is about, would be awesome; and then from there it’s probably—in comparison—just a minor step to get the GUI client working, too.

I had the mullvad CLI running on my Pi a while ago, I just compiled it without wireguard because I didn't really need it at the time and wireguard-go is one of the relatively less portable parts of the current CLI. Worked quite well overall, there were some complexities like the fact mullvad was using a very old version of shadowsocks-rust that had a yanked dependency, but once I had gotten past those it was honestly perfect

Was curious how things are now and just found #3474 which solves the shadowsocks issue I mentioned above. That was one of my annoyances with getting mullvad to work on my Pi, that's nifty

slendermon · 2022-08-10T17:23:36Z

i made a mullvad app gui for wireguard if anyone wants to see: https://github.com/slendermon/ehh
hope this helps you
also i got it working with pinephone
note: this is not the same thing as mullvadvpn app

raksooo · 2022-10-19T13:06:23Z

We now include aarch64 in our releases which can be found on the releases page. I'll close this issue since we have no plans on supporting 32-bit ARM.
