Before this change, it was ensured that a default superuser is created
before serving CQL. However, the mechanism didn't wait for default
password initialization, so effectively, for a short period, customer
couldn't authenticate as the superuser properily. The purpose of this
change is to improve the superuser initialization mechanism to wait for
superuser default password, just as for the superuser creation.
This change:
- Introduce authenticator::ensure_superuser_is_created() to allow
waiting for complete initialization of super user authentication
- Implement ensure_superuser_is_created in password_authenticator, so
waiting for superuser password initialization is possible
- Implement ensure_superuser_is_create in transitional_authenticator,
so the implementation from password_authenticator is used
- Implement no-op ensure_superuser_is_create for other authenticators
- Modify service::ensure_superuser_is_created to wait for superuser
initialization in authenticator, just as it was implemented earlier
for role_manager
Fixesscylladb/scylladb#20566
This PR extends authentication with 2 mechanisms:
- a new role_manager subclass, which allows managing users via
LDAP server,
- a new authenticator, which delegates plaintext authentication
to a running saslauthd daemon.
The features have been ported from the enterprise repository
with their test.py tests and the documentation as part of
changing license to source available.

We add new member functions to the interface of `auth::authenticator`
responsible for querying the password hash corresponding to a given
role. One method indicates whether a given authenticator uses
password hashes, while the other queries them or throws an exception
password hashes are not used.
The rationale for extending the interface of authenticator is
to be able to access salted hashes from other parts of auth.
We will need them in an upcoming commit responsible for describing
auth.
The main theme of this commit is executing drop
keyspace/table/aggregate/function statements in a single
transaction together with auth auto-revoke logic.
This is the logic which cleans related permissions after
resource is deleted.
It contains serveral parts which couldn't easily be split
into separate commits mainly because mutation collector related
paths can't be mixed together. It would require holding multiple
guards which we don't support. Another reason is that with mutation
collector the changes are announced in a single place, at the end
of statement execution, if we'd announce something in the middle
then it'd lead to raft concurrent modification infinite loop as it'd
invalidate our guard taken at the begining of statement execution.
So this commit contains:
- moving auto-revoke code to statement execution from migration_listener
* only for auth-v2 flow, to not break the old one
* it's now executed during statement execution and not merging schemas,
which means it produces mutations once as it should and not on each
node separately
* on_before callback family wasn't used because I consider it much
less readable code. Long term we want to remove
auth_migration_listener.
- adding mutation collector to revoke_all
* auto-revoke uses this function so it had to be changed,
auth::revoke_all free function wrapper was added as cql3
layer should not use underlying_authorizer() directly.
- adding mutation collector to drop_role
* because it depends on revoke_all and we can't mix old and new flows
* we need to switch all functions auth::drop_role call uses
* gradual use of previously introduced modify_membership, otherwise
we would need to switch even more code in this commit
This is done to achieve single transaction semantics.
grant_permissions_to_creator is logically part of create role
but its change will be included in following commits
as it spans multiple usages.
Additinally we disabled rollback during create role as
it won't work and is not needed with single transaction logic.
In a follow-up patch abort_source will be used
inside those methods. Current pattern is that abort_source
is passed everywhere as non const so it needs to be
executed in non const context.

After fcb8d040 ("treewide: use Software Package Data Exchange

noise.
Closes#10562
Instead of lengthy blurbs, switch to single-line, machine-readable
standardized (https://spdx.dev) license identifiers. The Linux kernel
switched long ago, so there is strong precedent.
Three cases are handled: AGPL-only, Apache-only, and dual licensed.
For the latter case, I chose (AGPL-3.0-or-later and Apache-2.0),
reasoning that our changes are extensive enough to apply our license.
The changes we applied mechanically with a script, except to
licenses/README.md.

None of the `authenticator` implementations we have support custom
options, but we should support this operation to support the relevant
CQL statements.
This patch came about because of an important (and obvious, in
hindsight) realization: instances of the authorizer, role manager, and
authenticator are clients for access-control state and not the state
itself. This is reflected directly in Scylla: `auth::service` is
sharded across cores and this is possible because each instance queries
and modifies the same global state.
To give more examples, the value of an instance of `std::vector<int>` is
the structure of the container and its contents. The value of `int
file_descriptor` is an identifier for state maintained elsewhere.
Having watched an excellent talk by Herb Sutter [1] and having read an
informative blog post [2], it's clear that a member function marked
`const` communicates that the observable state of the instance is not
modified.
Thus, the member functions of the role-manager, authenticator, and
authorizer clients should not be marked `const` only if the state of the
client itself is observably changed. By this principle, member functions
which do not change the state of the client, but which mutate the global
state the client is associated with (for example, by creating a role)
are marked `const`.
The `start` (and `stop`) functions of the client have the dual role of
initializing (finalizing) both the local client state and the
external state; they are not marked `const`.

All we require are value semantics.
`client_state` still stores `authenticated_user` in a `shared_ptr`, but
the behavior of that class is complex enough to warrant its own
discussion/design/refactor.
The set of allowed options is quite small, so we benefit from a static
representation (member variables) over a dynamic map.
We also logically move the "OPTIONS" option to the domain of the
authenticator (from user management), since this is where it is applied.
This refactor also aims to reduce compilation time by moving
`authentication_options` into its own header file.
While changes to `user_options` were necessary to accommodate the new
structure, that class will be deprecated shortly in the switch to roles.
Therefore, the changes are strictly temporary.
This change appears quite large, but is logically fairly simple.
Previously, the `auth` module was structured around global state in a
number of ways:
- There existed global instances for the authenticator and the
authorizer, which were accessed pervasively throughout the system
through `auth::authenticator::get()` and `auth::authorizer::get()`,
respectively. These instances needed to be initialized before they
could be used with `auth::authenticator::setup(sstring type_name)`
and `auth::authorizer::setup(sstring type_name)`.
- The implementation of the `auth::auth` functions and the authenticator
and authorizer depended on resources accessed globally through
`cql3::get_local_query_processor()` and
`service::get_local_migration_manager()`.
- CQL statements would check for access and manage users through static
functions in `auth::auth`. These functions would access the global
authenticator and authorizer instances and depended on the necessary
systems being started before they were used.
This change eliminates global state from all of these.
The specific changes are:
- Move out `allow_all_authenticator` and `allow_all_authorizer` into
their own files so that they're constructed like any other
authenticator or authorizer.
- Delete `auth.hh` and `auth.cc`. Constants and helper functions useful
for implementing functionality in the `auth` module have moved to
`common.hh`.
- Remove silent global dependency in
`auth::authenticated_user::is_super()` on the auth* service in favour
of a new function `auth::is_super_user()` with an explicit auth*
service argument.
- Remove global authenticator and authorizer instances, as well as the
`setup()` functions.
- Expose dependency on the auth* service in
`auth::authorizer::authorize()` and `auth::authorizer::list()`, which
is necessary to check for superuser status.
- Add an explicit `service::migration_manager` argument to the
authenticators and authorizers so they can announce metadata tables.
- The permissions cache now requires an auth* service reference instead
of just an authorizer since authorizing also requires this.
- The permissions cache configuration can now easily be created from the
DB configuration.
- Move the static functions in `auth::auth` to the new `auth::service`.
Where possible, previously static resources like the `delayed_tasks`
are now members.
- Validating `cql3::user_options` requires an authenticator, which was
previously accessed globally.
- Instances of the auth* service are accessed through `external`
instances of `client_state` instead of globally. This includes several
CQL statements including `alter_user_statement`,
`create_user_statement`, `drop_user_statement`, `grant_statement`,
`list_permissions_statement`, `permissions_altering_statement`, and
`revoke_statement`. For `internal` `client_state`, this is `nullptr`.
- Since the `cql_server` is responsible for instantiating connections
and each connection gets a new `client_state`, the `cql_server` is
instantiated with a reference to the auth* service.
- Similarly, the Thrift server is now also instantiated with a reference
to the auth* service.
- Since the storage service is responsible for instantiating and
starting the sharded servers, it is instantiated with the sharded
auth* service which it threads through. All relevant factory functions
have been updated.
- The storage service is still responsible for starting the auth*
service it has been provided, and shutting it down.
- The `cql_test_env` is now instantiated with an instance of the auth*
service, and can be accessed through a member function.
- All unit tests have been updated and pass.

Using "Meyer's singletons" eliminate the problem of static constant
initialization order because static variables inside functions are

declaration.

User db storage + login/pwd db using system tables.
Authenticator object is a global shard-shared singleton, assumed
to be completely immutable, thus safe.
Actual login authentication is done via locally created stateful object
(sasl challenge), that queries db.
Uses "crypt_r" for password hashing, vs. origins use of bcrypt.
Main reason is that bcrypt does not exist as any consistent package
that can be consumed, so to guarantee full compatibility we'd have
to include the source. Not hard, but at least initially more work than
worth.
