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
(SPDX) license identifiers"), many dual-licensed files were
left with empty comments on top. Remove them to avoid visual
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.
Closes#9937
This warning can catch a virtual function that thinks it
overrides another, but doesn't, because the two functions
have different signatures. This isn't very likely since most
of our virtual functions override pure virtuals, but it's
still worth having.
Enable the warning and fix numerous violations.
Closes#9347
C++20 introduced `contains` member functions for maps and sets for
checking whether an element is present in the collection. Previously
`count` function was often used in various ways.
`contains` does not only express the intend of the code better but also
does it in more unified way.
This commit replaces all the occurences of the `count` with the
`contains`.

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`.

auth: Decouple authorization and role management
Access control in Scylla consists of three main modules: authentication,
authorization, and role-management.
Each of these modules is intended to be interchangeable with alternative
implementations. The `auth::service` class composes these modules
together to perform all access-control functionality, including caching.
This architecture implies two main properties of the individual
access-control modules:
- Independence of modules. An implementation of authentication should
have no dependence or knowledge of authorization or role-management,
for example.
- Simplicity of implementing the interface. Functionality that is common
to all implementations should not have to be duplicated in each
implementation. The abstract interface for a module should capture
only the differences between particular implementations.
Previously, the authorization interface depended on an instance of
`auth::service` for certain operations, since it required aggregation
over all the roles granted to a particular role or required checking if
a given role had superuser.
This change decouples authorization entirely from role-management: the
authorizer now manages only permissions granted directly to a role, and
not those inherited through other roles.
When a query needs to be authorized, `auth::service::get_permissions`
first uses the role manager to check if the role has superuser. Then, it
aggregates calls to `auth::authorizer::authorize` for each role granted
to the role (again, from the role-manager) to determine the sum-total
permission set. This information is cached for future queries.
This structure allows for easier error handling and
management (something I hope to improve in the future for both the
authorizer and authenticator interfaces), easier system testing, easier
implementation of the abstract interfaces, and clearer system
boundaries (so the code is easier to grok).
Some authorizers, like the "TransitionalAuthorizer", grant permissions
to anonymous users. Therefore, we could not unconditionally authorize an
empty permission set in `auth::service` for anonymous users. To account
for this, the interface of the authorizer has changed to accept an
optional name in `authorize`.
One additional notable change to the authorizer is the
`auth::authorizer::list`: previously, the filtering happened at the CQL
query layer and depended on the roles granted to the role in question.
I've changed the function to simply query for all roles and I do the
filtering in `auth::system` in-memory with the STL. This was necessary
to allow the authorizer to be decoupled from role-management. This
function is only called for LIST PERMISSIONS (so performance is not a
concern), and it significantly reduces demand on the implementation.
Finally, we unconditionally create a user in `cql_test_env` since
authorization requires its existence.
This has the dual benefit of not enforcing copying on implementations of
the abstract interface and also limiting unnecessary copies.
As usual with Seastar, we follow the convention that a reference
parameter to a function is assumed valid for the duration of the
`future` that is returned. `do_with` helps here.
By adding some constants for root resources, we can avoid using
`seastar::do_with` at some call-sites involving `resource` instances.
According to previous discussions on the mailing-list with Avi, using
both has the benefits of making virtual functions stand out and also
warning about functions which unintentionally do not override.
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.
This is a large change, but it's a necessary evil.
This change brings us to a minimally-functional implementation of roles.
There are many additional changes that are necessary, including refined
grammar, bug fixes, code hygiene, and internal code structure changes.
In the interest of keeping this patch somewhat read-able, those changes
will come in subsequent patches. Until that time, roles are still marked
"unimplemented".
IMPORTANT: This code does not include any mechanism for transitioning a
cluster from user-based access-control to role-based access control. All
existing access-control metadata will be ignored (though not deleted).
Specific changes:
- All user-specific CQL statements now delegate to their roles
equivalent. The statements are effectively the same, but CREATE USER
will include LOGIN automatically. Also, LIST USERS only lists roles
with LOGIN.
- A call to LIST PERMISSIONS will now also list permissions of roles
that have been granted to the caller, in addition to permissions which
have been granted directly.
- Much of the logic of creating, altering, and deleting roles has been
moved to `auth::service`, since these operations require cooperation
between the authenticator, authorizer, and role-manager.
- LIST USERS actually works as expected now (fixes#2968).
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.
Fixes#3096

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.
Fixes#2929.
Rather than have all uses of the QP in auth reference global variables,
we supply a QP reference to both the authenticator and authorizer on
construction.
The caller still references a global variable when constructing the
instances, but fixing this problem is a much larger task that is out of
scope of this change.
Using "Meyer's singletons" eliminate the problem of static constant
initialization order because static variables inside functions are
initialized only the first time control flow passes over their
declaration.
Fixes#2966.
Similar to DSE objects with similar name. Basically ignores
all authentication/authorization except "superuser" login. All others
sessions are treated as anonymous.
Note: like DSE counterparts, a client session must still _use_
authentication to be able to connect, even though the actual content of
the auth is mostly ignored.
