Just follow the same pattern as in default_authorizer so
it's easy to track where system_auth keyspace is actually
used. It will also allow for easier parametrization.
Instead of locking this to "cassandra:cassandra", allow setting in scylla.yaml
or commandline. Note that config values become redundant as soon as auth tables
are initialized.
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.
Closes#9937
Replace stdx::optional and stdx::string_view with the C++ std
counterparts.
Some instances of boost::variant were also replaced with std::variant,
namely those that called seastar::visit.
Scylla now requires GCC 8 to compile.

If `auth::password_authenticator` also creates `system_auth.roles` and
we fix the existence check for the default superuser in
`auth::standard_role_manager` to only search for the columns that it
owns (instead of the column itself), then both modules' initialization
are independent of one another.
Fixes#3319.
This change allows for seamless migration of the legacy users metadata
to the new role-based metadata tables. This process is summarized in
`docs/migrating-from-users-to-roles.md`.
In general, if any nondefault metadata exists in the new tables, then
no migration happens. If, in this case, legacy metadata still exists
then a warning is written to the log.
If no nondefault metadata exists in the new tables and the legacy tables
exist, then each node will copy the data from the legacy tables to the
new tables, performing transformations as necessary. An informational
message is written to the log when the migration process starts, and
when the process ends. During the process of copying, data is
overwritten so that multiple nodes racing to migrate data do not
conflict.
Since Apache Cassandra's auth. schema uses the same table for managing
roles and authentication information, some useful functions in
`roles-metadata.hh` have been added to avoid code duplication.
Because a superuser should be able to drop the legacy users tables from
`system_auth` once the cluster has migrated to roles and is functioning
correctly, we remove the restriction on altering anything in the
"system_auth" keyspace. Individual tables in `system_auth` are still
protected later in the function.
When a cluster is upgrading from one that does not support roles to one
that does, some nodes will be running old code which accesses old
metadata and some will be running new code which access new metadata.
With the help of the gossiper `feature` mechanism, clients connecting to
upgraded nodes will be notified (through code in the relevant CQL
statements) that modifications are not allowed until the entire cluster
has upgraded.
The role manager is responsible for creating, removing, querying for,
granting, and revoking roles.
The role manager does not yet run in production, and is not connected to
the rest of the system.
Included in this patch is the definition of the abstract role management
interface, and also the implementation of the standard role manager.
The standard role manager is tested fully in the `role_manager_test`.
