Avi Kivity 814942505f Merge 'Introduce Encryption-at-Rest (EAR) for sstables and commitlog' from Calle Wilund
Fixes https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-enterprise/issues/5016#issuecomment-2558464631

EAR - encryption at rest. Allows on-disk file encryption of sstables and commitlog data.
Introduces OpenSSL based file level encrypted storage, managed via a set of providers
ranging from local files to cloud KMS providers.

For a more comprehensive explanation, see the included docs (or if possible, original
source tree).

Manual bulk merge of EAR feature from enterprise repo to main scylla repo.

Breaks some features apart, but main EAR is still a humongous commit, because to separate this
I would have to mess with code incrementally, adding time and risk.

This PR includes the local file gen tool, tests and also p11 validation.

Note: CI will not execute the full tests unless master CI is set to provide the same environment
as the enterprise one. Not sure about the status of this ATM.

Note: Includes code to compile against cryptsoft kmipc SDK, but not the SDK. If you happen to
check out this tree in the scylla folder and configure, it will be linked against and KMIP functionality
will be enabled, otherwise not.

Closes scylladb/scylladb#22233

Building User Documentation

Prerequisites

  • Python
  • poetry
  • make

See the ScyllaDB Sphinx Theme prerequisites to check which versions of the above are currently required.

Mac OS X

You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.

You also need the standard utility make.

Check if you have these two items with the following commands:

brew help
make -h

Linux Distributions

Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.

Windows

Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.

Building the Docs

  1. Run make preview to build the documentation.
  2. Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.

Cleanup

You can clean up all the build products and auto-installed Python stuff with:

make pristine
