OpenAFS Newsletter, Volume 2, Issue 11, November 2010

Welcome to the October issue of the OpenAFS newsletter. This newsletter summarizes what is happening in the OpenAFS community.

As always, volunteers, patches, bug reports, or any other type of help is greatly appreciated.

Feedback on this newsletter is welcome. The goal is to summarize the various development efforts and news of OpenAFS for the community. Please let Jason Edgecombe <jason@rampaginggeek.com> know what you would like to see out of this newsletter. Any news about AFS-related projects is welcome and may be submitted to Jason for inclusion in the next newsletter.

The current and past issues of this newsletter are available at http://www.openafs.org/newsletter/

There is no case study this month. Please email Jason if you would like to volunteer.

General OpenAFS Progress

On October 28th, several people toasted to the celebrate the 10th anniversary of OpenAFS. May OpenAFS have many more years ahead of it.

1.5.78 was released on November 4. This release includes numerous fixes.

The final vote counts for the afs3-standardization group are in. Congratulations to Hartmut Reuter and Doug Engert, who are the new chairs.

Chaz Chandler wrote a how-to guide on setting up a buildbot buildslave, which prompted several people to offer buildslaves. Thanks to many volunteers, we have working buildslaves for AIX on the POWER architecture, Fedora Linux on ARM, Debian on ARM. Slaves for RHEL5 x86_64, OpenSuSE, Mac OS 10.5 PPC, and MacOS 10.6 x86_64 are up and working out setup issues.

The IRIX buildslaves now run each build using multiple processes. Buildbot will now build recent changes that were missed while buildbot was down.

AFS Protocol Standardization

Discussion on these proposals is welcome and should be done on the AFS3-standardization list at http://michigan-openafs-lists.central.org/mailman/listinfo/afs3-standardization

PTS Alternate Authentication

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-brashear-afs3-pts-extended-names

Status: Seventh Draft

Last update: August 31, 2010

A request for last call will happen soon.

AFS Callback Extensions

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-benjamin-extendedcallbackinfo

Status: Active - Waiting on RPC refresh

Last Update: September 23, 2009

The callback draft is stable. There is a published implementation. My understanding is that it is accepted with the requirement that it be adjusted to use RPC refresh data types, which means AFSFetchStatus64 and the new 100ns time data type. This is regarded as "trivial" but at the same time, the spec can't be standardized as is. It is planned for merge in, IIRC, 1.9/1.10.

RXGK

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wilkinson-afs3-rxgk

Status: Active

Last Draft Update: Jan 9, 2010

A working implementation of rxgk was demonstrated at the European AFS & Kerberos Workshop in Pilsen. Whilst there is still work to be done, both on completing the implementation, and on getting the code into the OpenAFS tree, this is an important milestone. Slides from the Pilsen talk are available on their web site, the current rxgk code is, as always, available on github.

AFS3 ACL Rights

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-deason-afs3-acl-restrictions

Status: Second draft

Last update: January 13, 2010

We're waiting for the afs3-standardization structure to solidify before proceeding with this. So, no progress right now.

--Andrew Deason

Rx Security Object Providing Clear-text Peer Identity Assertions

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-tkeiser-rxrpc-sec-clear

Status: Third draft

Last Update: April 17, 2010

I released a new version of the Rx Clear security class I-D the other day. I am hereby soliciting comments on this new version of the draft.

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-tkeiser-rxrpc-sec-clear

The major changes in this version of the document are:

AFSVol Tag-Length-Value Remote Procedure Call Extensions

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-tkeiser-afs3-volser-tlv

Status: Fourth Draft

Last Update: August 4, 2010

The other week I submitted a new draft to the IETF which implements the aforementioned changes (as well as a few others). The new draft is available at the following URLs:

Any comments or feedback are appreciated.

AFS Byte-Range File Locking

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mbenjamin-afs-file-locking

Status: Fifth Draft

This draft proposes protocol extensions to support byte-range and mandatory locking.

The first draft was submitted on May 5, 2010.

Projects

Demand-Attach FileServer (DAFS)

Project Contacts:

A fix for salvaging attached volumes (gerrit 2329) was merged, and an issue was found with it that was fixed and merged in gerrit 3272. fssync-debug will now automatically run the DAFS-specific version with the merged gerrit 2480. Some salvage-related parallel I/O extensions were added in gerrit 1864, but are not yet enabled. A fix for releasing a volume reference prematurely was merged in gerrit 2968.

--Andrew

Since DAFS is now part of the main development stream, this section will not appear in future newsletters.

--Editor

Better Documentation

Project Contacts:

The Quickstart Guide was updated to include requirements for partitions and how to use the AlwaysAttach file to override those requirements. There was a minor update to the RedHat and Fedora installation instructions to use Yum instead of RPM. A reference to the salvager command was changed to dasalavager for the DAFS context, and some commands in the DAFS file server instructions were fixed. The RPM package names in the guide were updated to reflect the ones available from the OpenAFS web site.

The fs minidump man page was updated to show the default location of the dump file.

--Jason

Virtual Machine Images

Project Contact:

We have update the vm images with the openafs 1.5.77. The files are available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/s3afs/files/

--Fabrizio

Rx OSD integration & Raw Vicep Access in Clients

Project Contacts:

Since the OpenAFS meeting in Pilsen I have started to send code for RXOSD to gerrit. So the integration of OpenAFS/OSD starts to be in progress.

The new client will unconditionally be prepared for RXOSD and VICEP-access so that it can be used in all cells whether they use RXOSD or not.

The server side will require expicit --enable-object-storage and/or --enable-vicep-access, however, because I suppose that most cells also in the future will prefere to run their cell without these new features.
