[openstack-dev] Replacing Keystone Admin Accounts

[Adam Young]

As we attempt to close the gap on Bug 968696, we have to make sure we are
headed forward in a path that won't get us stuck.

It seems that many people use Admin-every accounts for many things that
they are not really meant for.  Such as performing Operations that should
be scoped to a project, like creating networks in Neutron or Block devices
in Cinder.

With the service scoping of role assignments, we have both the opportunity
and responsibility to rework how these operations are authorized.

Back in the time when we were discussing and engineering Hierarchical
Multi-tenancy (HMT) the operators told us that they did not want to have to
rescope tokens in order to provide help for their users.  I remember
getting this both verbally and in writing, although I cannot find the
message now.

If we created basic policy rules that allowed a Nova service account to
list all servers (for example) but not to change those servers without
getting a token scoped to that specific project, would it break a lot of
tooling?

The other use case we've found is the need to clean up project-scoped
resources.  Once a project has been deleted in Keystone, it is impossible
to get a project scoped token to delete the resources in cinder, glance,
and so on.  It seems like these operations need to be on a per-system
(service? endpoint) basis for the foreseeable future.  Is this acceptable?
Are there any alterntives that people would rather see implemented?

This is a bug.  It looks like the one() assumes there is only every one
record that comes back that matches, and this matches multiple.

A 500 is never appropriate.

Interesting.  That might have been a "works as designed"  with the idea
that assigning a role on a domain that is inherited is used by anything
underneath it.  It actually makes sense, as domains can't nest, so this
may be intentional syntactic sugar on top of the format I used:

I'd love it if Domains went away and we only had projects.  We'd have to
find a way to implement such that people using domains today don't get
broken.
We could also add a 3 value toggle on the inheritance: none, children_only,
both to get it down to a single entry.that would be an implementation
detail that the end users would not see.

[openstack-dev] [Keystone] Token Verify Role Check

[Adam Young]

There has been a lot of talk about Policy this past summit and release.  
Based on feedback, we've come up with the following spec to address it.



https://review.openstack.org/#/c/391624/


The idea is that we are going to split the role check off from the 
existing policy checks. The role check will happen at token validation 
time.  The existing policy checks will still be executed in the body of 
the code bases where they are now, as they confirm additional attributes 
about the operations and resources.



It is the amalgamation of work by many people, and I've attempted to 
list them all at the bottom.



Comments highly appreciated, either in the review or in this thread.

Re: [openstack-dev] [Magnum][Kuryr][Keystone] Securing services in container orchestration

[Adam Young]

On 10/09/2016 10:57 PM, Ton Ngo wrote:


Hi Keystone team,
We have a scenario that involves securing services for container and 
this has
turned out to be rather difficult to solve, so we would like to bring 
to the larger team for

ideas.
Examples of this scenario:
1. Kubernetes cluster:
To support the load balancer and persistent storage features for 
containers, Kubernetes
needs to interface with Neutron and Cinder. This requires the user 
credential to establish
a session and request Openstack services. Currently this is done by 
requiring the
user to manually enter the credential in a Kubernetes config file and 
restarting some

of the Kubernetes services.
2. Swarm cluster:
To support the Swarm networking for container, the Kuryr libnetwork 
agent needs to
interface with the Kuryr driver, so the agent needs a service 
credential to establish

a session with the driver running on some controllers.

The problem is in handling and storing these credential on the user 
VMs in the cluster.


For #1, Magnum deploys the Kubernetes cluster but does not handle the
user credential, so the automation is not complete and the user needs 
to perform
some manual steps. Even this is not desirable since if the cluster is 
shared within
a tenant, the user credential can be exposed to other users. Token 
does not work
well since token would expire and the service is required for the life 
of the cluster.
For #2, storing a Kuryr service credential on the user VM is a 
security exposure

so we are still looking for a solution.

The Magnum and Kuryr teams have been discussing this topic for some time.
We would welcome any suggestion.

Ton Ngo,



Create a service user in a service domain, and grant a trust to the 
service user. This is what Heat does.

Hello Keystone Devs,

Just curious as to the choice to have the project name be only 64

Seems short, and an odd choice when the user.name field is 255 characters:
https://github.com/openstack/keystone/blob/master/keystone/identity/backends/sql_model.py#L216

Is there a good reason for it only being 64 characters, or is this just
something that was done a long time ago and no one thought about it?

Not hugely important, just seemed odd and may prove limiting for
something I'm playing with.

No. keep them short.  We are working toward a scheme where you can nest 
the names like this"



parent/child1/child2


But if you make them too long, that becomes a disaster.  There is a 
strict option in the config file that prevents you from making names 
with non-URL safe characters.  Set that option.

Re: [Openstack] [OpenStack] [Keystone] How to use two keystone servers?

Hello,

I have next nodes:
swift_proxy1 - 192.168.0.11
swift_proxy2 - 192.168.0.12

keystone2 - 192.168.0.22

I wonder to know if it is possible to use two keystone servers if we 
use "uuid" or "fernet" tokens.



Yes, you want to use Fernet.  Make sure the same keys are on both servers.


With uuid I can use Galera Cluster to use the same database. The 
problem is I don't know what to write in endpoints. We can create an 
endpoint only for one the keystone server as I understand. i.e. :


openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne identity public 
http://192.168.0.11:5000/v3


openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne identity internal 
http://192.168.0.11:5000/v3
openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne identity admin 
http://192.168.0.11:35357/v3


Also what should I use when I create a swift endpoints? Does he have 
to point on itself or on the keystone server?


openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \
  object-store public http://192.168.0.11:8080/v1/AUTH_%\(tenant_id\)s 


openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \
  object-store internal 
http://192.168.0.11:8080/v1/AUTH_%\(tenant_id\)s 


openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \
  object-store admin http://192.168.0.11:8080/v1

i.e. if it points on the keystone then it is OK but if he point on 
itself then which proxy IP address I should use?


Also when we use fernet tokens, how to synchronize tokens between 
nodes (they should always use the same tokens).


My aim is to connect the keystone 1 to the proxy 1 and the keystone 2 
to the proxy 2 to. i.e. : Proxy 1 should always check tokens only in 
the keystone1 server and the proxy 2 should always check tokens only 
in the keystone 2 server. But I want to be able to receive tokens from 
any keystone server (a user can receive a token from the keystone 1 
and be authenticated in the proxy 2 with that token).


Sincerely,
Alexandr

In either case a good mechanism might be to use a Heat Software
Deployment via the Heat API directly (i.e. not as part of a stack) to

This is the part that interests me most.  The rest, I'll code in python
and we can call either from mistral or from Cron.  What would a stack
like this look like?  Are there comparable examples?

Basically use the "openstack software config create" command to upload a
script and the "openstack software deployment create" command to deploy it
to a server. I don't have an example I can point you at, but the data is in
essentially the same format as the properties of the corresponding Heat
resources.[1][2] Steve Baker would know if we have any more detailed docs.

Actually we wrapped a mistral workflow and CLI interface around this for
operator convenience, so you can just do:

[stack@instack ~]$ cat run_ls.sh
#!/bin/sh
ls /tmp

[stack@instack ~]$ openstack overcloud execute -s overcloud-controller-0 
run_ls.sh

This runs a mistral workflow that creates the heat software config and
software deployment, waits for the deployment to complete, then returns the
result.

Wiring in a periodic mistral workflow which does the same should be
possible, but tbh I've not yet looked into the deferred authentication
method in that case (e.g I assume it uses trusts but I've not tried it
yet).

This is the mistral workflow, it could pretty easily be reused or adapted
for the use-case described I think:

Again, thanks for the stellar blooging, Steve.  POC was posted earlier

[openstack-dev] [keystone][oslo][release][requirements][FFE] global-requirements update for requests-kerberos

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/368530/

This change is for Python >2.7 only, as python2.7 already supports the 
latest version of these libraraies.  Back in the "just get pythoin3 to 
work" days we cut our losses on Kerberos support, but now it is 
working.  Getting this restriction removed means we don't have to edit 
away the tests for Kerberos in python3.


"The requests-kerberos package was marked as available for only python 
2.6 and python 2.7 because pykerberos did not support python 3. This has 
since been fixed, however we don't directly have a kerberos dependency 
we can increase so just leave this unbound."

  - No user token, this is just cloud-init running on the instance, 
although it could be other client software too
  - We don't have a token to pass to the vendordata REST service, so 
we currently pass nothing, keystone middleware denies request


So, its those post-boot requests from inside the instance that have me 
concerned.


I gues I was not clear on wehat you were doping here.  Is this a service 
user for additional calls to the metadata service for post-boot only?  I 
would think that, by then,. the instance should have an identity, and 
that identity would be used for calls to the outside world.  But I gues 
this is from nova-metadata to vendordata dynamic?  I thought 
nova-metadata already had a service account?


The chain of identity is from the user requesting the new VM to Nova to 
the join service.  When the VM kicks off, all the vendordata dynamic 
join service cares about is the the instance is the expected instance, 
and then it will hand down whatever it needs.


Let's say that what we were doing here is provisioning a Keystone user 
for each instance (not suggesting, just showing) and assigning the user 
a role in the project that owns the VM.  All of that work would be done 
by the join service upon notification from Nova that there is a new VM.  
What would then go to the instance would be the new userid and the 
keystone credential (Password?) that the vm can use.  Yes, it would be 
good if the instance were then to change the password.


In general, the join service should run as a specific user, and 
operations performed are not necessarily those limited by the token of 
the user requesting the new VM.  Put another way, just because a user 
can create a VM and thus a host entry in the IdP does not mean that same 
user can directly create a host entry in the IdP.


A user should not be able to call the Join service directly, either.  It 
should only be call-able by Nova.

I want to state that I (jokingly) opposed Ron's inclusion as core.

Not because he didn't earn it. He very much earned it.

But because Ron is doing amazing work actually writing code for 
Keystone, and I don't know that we can spare him to now review code, too.


Fantastic work, Ron.  Keep it up.

it, and use the identity from the IdP via Federation.


Anything authenticated should be done from the metadata server or from 
Nova itself, based on the token used to launch the workflow.

OK, this is due to the SAML request:

My guess is HA proxy is not passing on the proper, and the
mod_auth_mellon does not know to rewrite it from 5000 to 13000


You can't change the contents of a SAML AuthnRequest, often they are 
signed. Also, the AssertionConsumerServiceURL's and other URL's in 
SAML messages are validated to assure they match the metadata 
associated with EntityID (issuer). The addresses used inbound and 
outbound have to be correctly handled by the proxy configuration 
without modifying the content of the message being passed on the 
transport.



Got a a little further by twerking HA proxy settings.  Added in

  redirect scheme https code 301 if { hdr(host) -i 10.0.0.4 } !{ ssl_fc }
  rsprep ^Location:\ http://(.*) Location:\ https://\1

whicxh tells HA proxy to translate Location headers (used in redirects) 
from http to https.



As of now, it looks good up until the response comes back from the IdP 
and mod mellon rejects it.  I think this is due to Mellon issuing a 
request for http://:  but it gets translated through the 
proxy as https://:.



mod_auth_mellon is failing the following check in auth_mellon_handler.c


  url = am_reconstruct_url(r);

It does not spit out the parent.Destination value, but considering I am 
seeing http and not https in the error message, I assume that at least 
the protocol does not match.  Full error message at the bottom.


Assuming the problem is just that the URL is http and not https, I have 
an approach that should work.  I need to test it out, but want to record 
it here, and also get feedback:


I can clone the current 10-keystone_wsgi_main.conf which listens for 
straight http on port 5000.  If I make a file 
11-keystone_wsgi_main.conf  that listens on port 13000 (not on the 
external VIP)  but that enables SSL, I should be able to make HA proxy 
talk to that port and re-encrypt traffic, maintaining the 'https://' 
protocol.



However, I am not certain that Destination means the SP URL.  It seems 
like it should mean the IdP.  Further on in auth_mellon_handler.c


  destination_url = lasso_provider_get_metadata_one(
provider, "SingleSignOnService HTTP-Redirect");
if (destination_url == NULL) {
/* HTTP-Redirect unsupported - try HTTP-POST. */
http_method = LASSO_HTTP_METHOD_POST;
destination_url = lasso_provider_get_metadata_one(
provider, "SingleSignOnService HTTP-POST");
}

Looking in the metadata, it seems that this value should be:

 Location="https://identity.ayoung-dell-t1700.test/auth/realms/openstack/protocol/saml; 
/>


So maybe something has rewritten the value used as the url ?


Here is the full error message


Invalid Destination on Response. Should be:

I have a $HOME/custom.yaml environment file which contains this:

If you do something similar and then include that environment in your

Do this in addition to using environments/puppet-pacemaker.yaml and you
should have "single node HA" (aka pacemaker on a single controller).

Cool, will try it.

I kindof am still doing trial and error on a cluster we're I've made

killing a node means that Web calls fail means that HA Proxy is not 
sufficient to give us HA.  Is there something I can do with the Load 
Balancer or something if I shut down two of the nodes to keep things 
running?

And.. it seemed to work the first time, but not the second.  Now I get

"Secure Connection Failed

The connection to openstack.ayoung-dell-t1700.test:5000 was 
interrupted while the page was loading."


Guessing the first success was actually a transient error.

So it looks like my change was necessary but not sufficient.

This is needed to make mod_auth_mellon work when loaded into Apache, 
and Apache is running behind  HA proxy (Tripleo setup).



There is no SSL setup inside the Keystone server, it is just doing 
straight HTTP.  While I'd like to change this long term, I'd like to 
get things working this way first, but am willing to make whatever 
changes are needed to get SAML and Federation working soonest.





Ah...just noticed the redirect is to :5000, not port :13000 which is 
the HA Proxy port.


OK, this is due to the SAML request:


https://identity.ayoung-dell-t1700.test/auth/realms/openstack/protocol/saml;
 
Consent="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:consent:current-implicit"
 ForceAuthn="false"

 >
 
https://openstack.ayoung-dell-t1700.test:5000/v3/mellon/metadata
 


My guess is HA proxy is not passing on the proper, and the 
mod_auth_mellon does not know to rewrite it from 5000 to 13000




"rewriting is more expensive then getting the web server to return the 
right prefix. Is that an option? Usually its just a bug that needs a 
minor patch to fix.


Thanks,
Kevin"


Well, I think in this case, the expense is not something to worry 
about:  SAML is way more chatty than normal traffic, and the rewrite 
won't be a drop a in the bucket.


I think the right thing to do is to get HA proxy top pass on the correct 
URL, including the port, to the backend, but I don't think it is done in 
the rsprep directive.  As John Dennis pointed out to me, the 
mod_auth_mellon code uses the apache ap_construct_url(r->pool, 
cfg->endpoint_path, r) where r is the current request record.  And that 
has to be passed from HA proxy to Apache.


HA proxy is terminating SSL, and then calling Apache via


server overcloud-controller-0 172.16.2.8:5000 check fall 5 inter 2000 rise 2
and two others.  Everything appears to be properly translated except the 
port.

That exception class is instantiated only here

The code that uses the instantiated exception class (which actually

I don't remember off the top of my head how the default policy.json 
gets created, but I'm sure the admin credentials will work.  You might 
want to ensure you're logged in as the admin with...


$ source openrc admin admin



IN most projects, policy is enforced against an oslo-context object.  
That shouild abstract away the differences between V2 and V3 keystone 
token formats.


Make sure that the policy is not dying on something specific to one 
version or the other.  Post the actual rule executed, please.

Hi,
I am learning to configure keystone for tokenless  ssl x509 
 authorization, according to the document: 
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/keystone/configure_tokenless_x509.html. 


when making self-signed certificate with command openssl,
I don't know how to define issuer DN and subject DN for ssl x509.
Is it right as the following?
For example ,
If using  tokenless authorization between nova service and keystone,
i define issuer DN  like the following:
It is just a mapping:  whatever you chose for the DN needs to be 
mappable to the username in Keystone.
The example has "type": "SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN"  So if the 
SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN is schm...@openstack.com then the username needs to 
be schm...@openstack.com.


There are many attributes you can use for mapping.  Here is a decent 
summary:

http://www.freeipa.org/page/Environment_Variables



E=schm...@openstack.com
CN=schmitt
OU=keystone
O=openstack
L=Sunnyvale
S=California
C=US
and define subject DN like the following:
E=n...@openstack.com
CN=nova  #nova user defined in the configuration item 
[keystone_authtoken]file“/etc/nova/nova.conf”

OU=default
O=defalult
L=Sunnyvale
S=California
C=US

Also,is there something special between subject DN and openstack service?
Thanks & Regards,

'identity/domain_specific_drivers_enabled': value => 'True';

'identity/domain_configurations_from_database': value => 'True';

Yes, the best way to do this is to pass a hieradata override, as documented
here:

http://docs.openstack.org/developer/tripleo-docs/advanced_deployment/node_config.html

First step is to look at the puppet module that manages that configuration,
in this case I assume it's puppet-keystone:

https://github.com/openstack/puppet-keystone/tree/master/manifests

Some grepping shows that domain_specific_drivers_enabled is configured
here:

https://github.com/openstack/puppet-keystone/blob/master/manifests/init.pp#L1124..L1155

So working back from those variables, "using_domain_config" and
"domain_config_directory", you'd create a yaml file that looks like:

parameter_defaults:
   ControllerExtraConfig:
 keystone::using_domain_config: true
 keystone::domain_config_directory: /path/to/config

However, it seems that you want to configure domain_specific_drivers_enabled
*without* configuring domain_config_directory, so that it comes from the
database?

In that case, puppet has a "passthrough" interface you can use (this is the
same for all openstack puppet modules AFAIK):

https://github.com/openstack/puppet-keystone/blob/master/manifests/config.pp

Environment (referred to as controller_extra.yaml below) file looks like:

parameter_defaults:
   ControllerExtraConfig:
 keystone::config::keystone_config:
   identity/domain_specific_drivers_enabled:
 value: true
   identity/domain_configurations_from_database:
 value: true

I'm assuming I can mix these two approaches, so that, if I need

keystone::using_domain_config: true



as well it would look like this:

parameter_defaults:
  ControllerExtraConfig:
keystone::using_domain_config: true
keystone::config::keystone_config:
  identity/domain_specific_drivers_enabled:
value: true
  identity/domain_configurations_from_database:
value: true


And over time,  if there is support put into the templates for the 
values, and we start seeing errors, we can just change from the latter  
approach to the one you posted earlier?

Note the somewhat idiosyncratic syntax, you pass the value via a
"value: foo" map, not directly to the configuration key (don't ask me why!)

Then do openstack overcloud deploy --templates /path/to/templates -e 
controller_extra.yaml

The one gotcha here is if puppet keystone later adds an explicit interface
which conflicts with this, e.g a domain_specific_drivers_enabled variable
in the above referenced init.pp, you will get a duplicate definition error
(because you can't define the same thing twice in the puppet catalog).

This means that long-term use of the generic keystone::config::keystone_config
interface can be fragile, so it's best to add an explicit e.g
keystone::domain_specific_drivers_enabled interface if this is a long-term
requirement.

This is probably something we should add to our docs, I'll look at doing
that.

Hope that helps,

Steve

Morgan tossed the idea of a keystone-docs repo, which could have:

- The FAQ Adam is asking about
- Install guides (moved over from openstack-manuals)
- A spot for all those neat and unofficial blog posts we do
- How-to guides
- etc...

I think it's a neat idea and warrants some discussion. Of
course, we don't want to be the odd project out.


What would be the advantage of a new repo rather than just using
the keystone/docs folder. My concern is that docs/ already gets
stagnate but a new repo would end up being largely ignored and at
least theoretically you can update docs/ when the relevant code
changes.

I'm not sure how much of it is reusable but it claims to
be able to do
some of the things I think you're asking for except it doesn't
explicitly mention deleting comments/questions/etc.

Re: [Openstack] [Keystone] Why not OAuth 2.0 provider?

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your explanation! I have some further questions:

You said that OS-OAUTH doesn't make Keystone a proper OAuth provider, 
so what is missing? Can name some of the missing parts?


Another thing, a backlog started by you proposed to unify delegation 
features [1]. Its spec uses terms of "trustor" and "trustee". Can I 
say that the unified delegation workflow will be more like (or even 
the same as) the one in current OS-TRUST?


Yes.  The idea is that Oauth is a more standard protocol, but leaves out 
some of the details.  Trusts fills in the details of how to specify the 
delegation.  They fit together nicely.

Steve Martinelli > 於 2016年6月28日 週二 下午1:57寫道：


So, the os-oauth routes you mention in the documentation do not
make keystone a proper oauth provider. We simply perform
delegation (one user handing some level of permission on a project
to another entity) with the standard flow established in the
oauth1.0b specification.

Historically we chose oauth1.0 because one of the implementers was
very much against a flow based on oauth2.0 (though the names are
similar, these can be treated as two very different beasts, you
can read about it here [1]). Even amongst popular service
providers the choice is split down the middle, some providing
support for both [2]

We haven't bothered to implement support for oauth2.0 since there
has been no feedback or desire from operators to do so. Mostly, we
don't want yet-another-delegation mechanism in keystone, we have
trusts and oauth1.0; should an enticing use case arise to include
another, then we can revisit the discussion.

Is OAuth 2.0 not compatible with design of Keystone?

That was not set.



Also, you might have orphaned Ironic nodes, when node is available, 
but still has instance_uuid assigned without actual instance in Nova. 
These AFAIK would also not be scheduled to. To fix it update the node 
resetting this field


ironic node-update  remove instance_uuid


Did that as well, but since the system has been rebuilt, it is hard to

[openstack-dev] Troubleshooting and ask.openstack.org

Recently, the Keystone team  started brainstormin a troubleshooting 
document.  While we could, eventually put this into the Keystone repo, 
it makes sense to also be gathering troubleshooting ideas from the 
community at large.  How do we do this?


I think we've had a long enough run with the ask.openstack.org website 
to determine if it is really useful, and if it needs an update.



I know we getting nuked on the Wiki.  What I would like to be able to

document.


I think that ask.openstack.org is the right forum for this, but we need

You can see here the URI "/v3/tenants" should be "/v2.0/tenants" or 
"/v3/projects" (i think)


and /v3/tokens should be "/v2.0/tokens" or "/v3/auth/tokens"


So i wonder if this is a bug in the python-keystoneclient or is there 
any configuration i can do to force the client/keystone/horizon to use 
a proper URI call?



As a side, i applied a workaround to fix this issue by creating a 
redirect rule in apache as follow


RewriteEngine on
Redirect /v3/tenants /v2.0/tenants
Redirect /v3/tokens /v2.0/tokens


Set the API version explicitly to 3. It looks like the AuthURL is set to 
/v3 and the API version to 2.0




Thanks in advance for any help.

Adam, this is pretty much the proposal for TLS for the internal

The services in the overcloud fetching their certificates via 
certmonger is actually work in progress, which you could review here: 
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+topic:bp/tls-via-certmonger
Only thing is that currently this approach assumes FreeIPA, so the 
nodes need to be registered beforehand (and then trigger 
self-enrollment via some hooks).
Also, the spec that I'm pointing to doesn't require the CA to be the 
in undercloud and it could be another node. But hey, if we could 
deploy Anchor on the Undercloud, then that could be used, so we 
wouldn't need another node for this means.



Yes, I was basing my proposal her around your work.  I want there to be 
something guaranteed for Certmonger to talk to, and I realize that Heat 
can probably play that role.


Anchor might also be viable here, I just don't want to force it as a 
dependency.  We are talking the selfsigned use case here, so it should 
be minimal overhead.


Anyway, in each of the service's profiles (the puppet manifests) I'm 
setting up the tracking of the certificates with the certmonger's 
puppet manifest.

When deploying the overcloud with TLS, the current "no additional
technology" approach is to use opensssl and self signed. While this
works for a Proof of concept, it does not make sense if the users need
to access the resources from remote systems.

It seems to me that the undercloud, as the system of record for
deploying the overcloud, should be responsible for centralizing the
signing of certificates.

When deploying a service, the puppet module sure trigger a getcert 
call,

which registers the cert with Certmonger. Certmonger is responsible
for making sure the CSR gets to the signing authority, and fetching the
cert.

Certmonger works via helper apps. While there is currently a "self
signed" helper, this does not do much if two or more systems need to
have the same CA sign their certs.

It would be fairly simple to write a certmonger helper program that
sends a CSR from a controller or compute node to the undercloud, has 
the

on to the signing application.

I would see this as the lowest level of deployment. We can make use of
Anchor or Dogtag helper apps already. This might also prove a decent
middleground for people that need an automated approach to tie in 
with a

third party CA, where they need some confirmation from the deployment
process that the data in the CSR is valid and should be signed.


I'm not familiar with TripleO or it's use of puppet, but I would
strongly advocate for Anchor (or DogTag) to be the recommended
solution. OpenStack Ansible has found it a little bit of an annoyance
to generate and distribute self-signed certificates.


Ah, but the idea is that certmonger is a front to whatever CA you 
chose to use, it provides a consistent interface to a range of CA's as 
well as providing functionality not present in most CA's, for instance 
the ability detect when certs need renewal etc. So the idea would be 
certmonger+Dogtag or certmongner+Anchor, or certmonger+XXX


Exactly.  This allows the interface from Tripleo to be the same 
regardless of the CA.



I am looking for guidance from the Tripleo/Heat team on how to structure 
the certmonger helper app.

They really feel like a variation on Trust tokens.

From the service perspective, they are tokens, just not the one the

The "reservation" as I see it is an implicit trust created by the user 
requesting the operation on the initial service.


When the service validates the token, it can get back the,  lets call it 
a "reserved token" in keeping with the term reservation above.  That 
token will have a longer life span than the one the user originally 
requested, but (likely) fewer roles.


When nova calls glance, and then glance calls Swift, we can again 
transition to different reserved tokens if needs be.







To this end i've proposed reservations (a name that doesn't feel 
right): https://review.openstack.org/#/c/330329/


At a gut feeling level i'm much happier with the concept. I think it 
will allow us to handle the distinction between user->service and 
service->service communication much better and has the added bonus of 
potentially opening up some policy options in future.


Please let me know of any concerns/thoughts on the new approach.

Once again i've only written the proposal part of the spec as there 
will be a lot of details to figure out if we go forward. It is also 
fairly rough but it should convey the point.

Mostly in agreement.  I prefer to focus on the model (RBAC) rather
than a specific impl like Fortress. That is to say support the
model and allow the impl to remain pluggable.  That way you enable
many vendors to participate in your ecosystem and more important,
one isn’t tied to a specific backend (ldapv3, sql, …)

Re: [Openstack-operators] [keystone] Federation, domain mappings and v3 policy.json

[Adam Young]

On 06/13/2016 07:08 PM, Marc Heckmann wrote:

Hi,

I currently have a lab setup using SAML2 federation with Microsoft
ADFS.

The federation part itself works wonderfully. However, I'm also trying
to use the new project as domains feature along with the Keystone v3
sample policy.json file for Keystone:

The idea is that I should be able to map users who are in a specific
group in Active Directory to the admin role in a specific domain. This
should work for Keystone with the sample v3 policy (let's ignore
problems with the admin role in other projects such as Nova). In this
case I'm using the new project as domains feature, but I suspect that
the problem would apply to regular domains as well.

The mapping works properly with the important caveat that the user
domain does not match the domain of the project(s) that I'm assigning
the admin role to. Users who come in from Federation always belong to
the "Federated" domain. This is the case even if I pre-create the users
locally in a specific domain. This breaks sample v3 policy.json because
the rules expect the user's domain to match the project's domain.

Does anyone know if there is anyway to achieve what I'm trying to do
when using Federation?


Can you post your mapping file?  Might be easier to tell from that what 
you are trying to do?




Thanks in advance.

Hmmm...that should not be the case.  The user in question should have a

I suspect the problem is the Ephemeral nature of Federated users. With 
the Shadow user construct (under construction) there would be something 
to use.


Please file a bug on this and assign it to me (or notify me if you can't 
assign).




Since a federated user is not really have a role in a project, but it is a 
member of a group, which has the appropriate role(s), I suspect that this will 
never work with Federation?
Or is it a known/general problem with trusts and groups? I cannot really decide 
if it is a problem at the Heat, or the Keystone side, can you give me some

If it is not an error in the code, but in my setup, then please forgive me this

Re: [openstack-dev] [keystone] Changing the project name uniqueness constraint

[Adam Young]

On 06/02/2016 07:22 PM, Henry Nash wrote:

Hi

As you know, I have been working on specs that change the way we 
handle the uniqueness of project names in Newton. The goal of this is 
to better support project hierarchies, which as they stand today are 
restrictive in that all project names within a domain must be unique, 
irrespective of where in the hierarchy that projects sits (unlike, 
say, the unix directory structure where a node name only has to be 
unique within its parent). Such a restriction is particularly 
problematic when enterprise start modelling things like test, QA and 
production as branches of a project hierarchy, e.g.:


/mydivsion/projectA/dev
/mydivsion/projectA/QA
/mydivsion/projectA/prod
/mydivsion/projectB/dev
/mydivsion/projectB/QA
/mydivsion/projectB/prod

Obviously the idea of a project name (née tenant) being unique has 
been around since near the beginning of (OpenStack) time, so we must 
be cautions. There are two alternative specs proposed:


1) Relax project name constraints: 
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/310048/

2) Hierarchical project naming: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/318605/

First, here’s what they have in common:

a) They both solve the above problem
b) They both allow an authorization scope to use a path rather than 
just a simple name, hence allowing you to address a project anywhere 
in the hierarchy
c) Neither have any impact if you are NOT using a hierarchy - i.e. if 
you just have a flat layer of projects in a domain, then they have no 
API or semantic impact (since both ensure that a project’s name must 
still be unique within a parent)


Here’s how the differ:

- Relax project name constraints (1), keeps the meaning of the ‘name’ 
attribute of a project to be its node-name in the hierarchy, but 
formally relaxes the uniqueness constraint to say that it only has to 
be unique within its parent. In other words, let’s really model this a 
bit like a unix directory tree.
- Hierarchical project naming (2), formally changes the meaning of the 
‘name’ attribute to include the path to the node as well as the node 
name, and hence ensures that the (new) value of the name attribute 
remains unique.


While whichever approach we chose would only be included in a new 
microversion (3.7) of the Identity API, although some relevant APIs 
can remain unaffected for a client talking 3.6 to a Newton server, not 
all can be. As pointed out be jamielennox, this is a data modelling 
problem - if a Newton server has created multiple projects called 
“dev” in the hierarchy, a 3.6 client trying to scope a token simply to 
“dev” cannot be answered correctly (and it is proposed we would have 
to return an HTTP 409 Conflict error if multiple nodes with the same 
name were detected). This is true for both approaches.


Other comments on the approaches:

- Having a full path as the name seems duplicative with the current 
project entity - since we already return the parent_id (hence 
parent_id + name is, today, sufficient to place a project in the 
hierarchy).


The one thing I like is the ability to specify just the full path for 
the OS_PROJECT_NAME env var, but we could make that a separate 
variable.  Just as DOMAIN_ID + PROJECT_NAME is unique today, 
OS_PROJECT_PATH should be able to fully specify a project 
unambiguously.  I'm not sure which would have a larger impact on users.



- In the past, we have been concerned about the issue of what we do if 
there is a project further up the tree that we do not have any roles 
on. In such cases, APIs like list project parents will not display 
anything other than the project ID for such projects. In the case of 
making the name the full path, we would be effectively exposing the 
name of all projects above us, irrespective of whether we had roles on 
them. Maybe this is OK, maybe it isn’t.


I think it is OK.  If this info needs to be hidden from a user, the 
project should probably be in a different domain.


- While making the name the path keeps it unique, this is fine if 
clients blindly use this attribute to plug back into another API to 
call. However if, for example, you are Horizon and are displaying them 
in a UI then you need to start breaking down the path into its

- One area where names as the hierarchical path DOES look right is 
calling the /auth/projects API - where what the caller wants is a list 
of projects they can scope to - so you WANT this to be the path you 
can put in an auth request.


Given that neither can fully protect a 3.6 client, my personal 
preference is to go with the cleaner logical approach which I believe 
is the Relax project name constraints (1), with the addition of 
changing GET /auth/projects to return the path (since this is a 
specialised API that happens before authentication) - but I am open to 
persuasion (as the song goes).


There are those that might say that perhaps we just can’t change this.

Hello,

If openstack supported RBAC (ANSI INCITS 359) you would be able to call 
(something like) this API:

List permissionRoles(Permission  perm) throws SecurityException

Return a list of type String of all roles that have granted a particular 
permission.

RBAC Review APIs:
http://directory.apache.org/fortress/gen-docs/latest/apidocs/org/apache/directory/fortress/core/ReviewMgr.html

One of the advantages of pursuing published standards, you enjoy support for 
requirements across a broad spectrum of requirements, and perhaps for things 
you didn’t know was needed (at design time).


Any senseible RBAC setup would support this, but we are not using a 
sensible one, we are using a hand rolled one.  Replacing everything with 
Fortress implies a complete rewrite of what we do now.  Nuke it from 
orbit type stuff.


What I would rather focus on is the splitting of the current policy into 
two parts:


1. Scope check done in code
2. Role check done in middleware

Role check should be donebased on URL, not on the policy key like 
identity:create_user



Then, yes, a Fortress style query could be done, or it could be done by 
asking the service itself.






Hope this helps,

On 06/02/2016 01:23 AM, Jamie Lennox wrote:

Hi All,

I'd like to bring to the attention of the wider security groups and 
OpenStack users the Service Users Permissions [1] spec currently 
proposed against keystonemiddleware.


To summarize quickly OpenStack has long had the problem of token 
expiry happening in the middle of a long running operation and failing 
service to service requests and there have been a number of ways 
proposed around this including trusts and using the service users to 
perform operations.


Ideally in a big system like this we only want to validate a token and 
policy once on a user's first entry to the system, however all 
services only communicate via the public interfaces so we cannot tell 
at validation time whether this is the first, second, or twentieth 
time we are validating a token. (If we ever do OpenStack 2.0 we should 
change this)


Validating the "token" happens only once.

Validating the "user" permissions can happen multiple times, assuming 
that nothing changes, the operation goes through.



The part I have trouble with is not Validating the delegation from the 
end user to the service user.  This is a CVE waiting to happen.


A users token should be short (5 minutes) and just kick off the 
workflow.  But that should then be used to create a delegation for the 
remote service.  THat delegation can last longer than the duration of 
the token, to cover the long running tasks, but should not last forever.


While the usual discussion centers aroun Nova based tasks, think about 
all the *aaService endpoint that are going to have this same need.  If I 
kick off a workflow via Trove or Sahara, that endpoint should only be 
able to do what I ask it to do:  spin up the appropriate number of  vms 
in the corresponding projects, and so on.


The delegation mechanism needs to be lighter weight than trusts, but 
should have the sma constraints (redelegation and so on).



To do all of this right, however, requires a degree of introspection 
that we do not have in OpenStack.  Trove needs to ask Nova "I want to do 
X, what role do I need?"  and there is no where in the system today that 
this information lives.


So, while we could make something that works for service users as the 
problem is defined by Nova today, that would be, in a word, bad.  We 
need something that works for the larger OpenStack ecosystem, to include 
less trusted third party services, and still deal with the long running 
tasks.


S4U2Proxy from the Kerberos world is a decent approximation of what we 
need.  A user with a service ticket goes to a remote service and askes 
for an operation.  That service then gets its own proxy service ticket, 
based on its own identity and the service ticket of the requesting 
user.  This Proxy  service ticket is then used for operations on behalf 
of the real user.  The proxy ticket can have a reduced degree of 
authorization, but does not require a deliberate delegation agreement 
between each user and the service.






The proposed spec provides a way to simulate the at-edge validation 
for service to service communication. If a request has an 
X-Service-Token header (an existing concept) then instead of 
validating the user's token we should trust all the headers sent with 
that request (X_USER_ID, X_PROJECT_ID etc). We would still validate 
the X-Service-Token header. This has the effect that one service 
asserts to another that it has already validated this token and the 
receiving service shouldn't validate it again and bypass the expiry 
problem.


The glaring security issue here is that a user with the service role 
can now emulate any request on behalf of any user by sending the 
expected authenticated headers. This will place an extreme level of 
trust on accounts that up to now have generally only been able to 
validate a token. There is both the concern here that a malicious 
service could craft new requests with bogus credentials as well as 
services deciding that this provides them the ability to do 
non-expiring trusts from a user where it can simply replay the headers 
it received on previous requests to perform future operations on 
behalf of a user. This is _absolutely not_ the intended use case but 
something I expect to come up.


There is a variation of this mentioned in the spec where we pass only 
the user-id, project-id and audit information from service to service 
and then middleware can recreate the token from this information 
similar to how fernet tokens work today. There is additional 
processing here which in the standard case will simply reproduce the 
same headers that the last service already knew and it still allows a 
large amount of emulation from the service.


There are possibly ways we can secure this header bundle via signing 
however the practical result is essentially a secondary expiry time 
and an operational complexity that will make PKI tokens and rotating 
fernet keys appear trivial for the benefit of securing a

Right now I'm working on updating for Keycloak instead of Ipsilon.

The SSL stuff I would like to recommend using Certmonger to manage, but 
I don't know how to tie that in with the ADFS CA. We do it using IPA's 
CA.  You can set up a trust between IPA and and AD, which might be your 
easiest path forward.


With a trust, the Keystone server would be registered as a host on the 
FreeIPA server, but would accept Kerberos tickets from ADFS.  If you 
want to completely federate the two, you can do so as well, and then you 
do not  need the trust, you just let ADFS issue SAML.

Main production usecase:
As a system administrator I need to create assignments for federated 
users into the projects when the user has not authenticated for the 
first time.


Two different approaches.
1. A user has to be assigned directly into the project with the role 
Role1. Since shadow users were implemented, Keystone database has the 
record of the user when the federated user authenticates for the 
first time. When it happens, the user gets unscoped token and 
Keystone registers the user in the database with generated ID (the 
result of hashing the name and the domain). At this point the user 
cannot get scoped token yet since the user has not been assigned to 
any project.
Nonetheless there was a bug 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+bug/1313956 which was abandoned, 
and the reporter says that currently it is possible to assign role in 
the project to non-existing user (API only, no CLI). It doesn't help 
much though since it is barely possible to predict the ID of the user 
if it doesn't exist yet.


Potential solution - allow per-user project auto-creation. This will 
allow the user to get scoped token with a pre-defined role (should be 
either mentioned in config or in mapping) and execute operations 
right away.


What we discussed at the summit was the ability for some power user to 
pre=-create the shadow user record by passing in the data that that 
would be mapped:


Kerberos example
{
Realm: YOUNGLOGIC.NET
Principal: ayo...@younglogic.net
REMOTE_GROUPS: ipausers,demo,bookworms
}


Another API will allow for query if a user exists.




Spec is here

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/313604/






Disadvantages: less control and order (will potentially end up with 
infinite empty projects).

Benefits: user is authorized right away.

Another potential solution - clearly describe a possibility to assign 
shadow user to a project (client should generate the ID correctly), 
even though the user has not been authenticated for the first time yet.


Disadvantages: high risk of administrator's mistake when typing 
user's ID.
Benefits: user doesn't have to execute first dummy authentication in 
order to be registered.


2. Operate with the groups. It means that the user is a member of the 
remote group and we propose the groups to be assigned to the projects 
instead of the users.
There is no concept of shadow groups yet, so it still has to be 
implemented.


Same problem - in order to be able to assign the group to the project 
currently it has to exist in Keystone database.


It should be either allowed to pre-create the project for a group 
(based on some specific flags in mappings), or it should be allowed 
to assign non-existing groups into the projects.


I'd personally prefer to allow some special attribute to be specified 
in either the config or mapping which will allow project auto-creation.
For example, user is added to the group "openstack" in the backend. 
In this case this group is the part of SAML assertions (in case when 
SAML2 is used as the protocol), and Keystone should recognize this 
group through the mapping. When user makes login attempt, Keystone 
should pre-create the project and assign pre-defined role in it. User

Well, the behavior changes with the backend code base. By mitaka the
default backend code for both is the same. And the legacy code base is
about to be removed.

This feature (policy enforcement by user_id) was 100% untested, which is
why it never ended up in the new API stack. Being untested setting
owner: 'user_id: %(user_id)s' might have some really unexpected results
because not everything has a user_id.


There can be security implications also so I’d recommend those using
this current v2 feature to review the bug to understand the potential
impacts as clouds enable v2.1.

While I understand from the bug report what your use case is now, I'm
kind of wondering what the shared resources / actions of these 150
people are in this project. Are they all in the same project for other
reasons?


My sediments exactly.  In cloud, you should never be looking at a user 
id for policy.  It should be possible to always have more than one user 
perform an action, and enforce policy on the project_id.


The one exception for this is Barbican managing cryptographic secrets 
for a user's Identity.


And yes, I meant to say sediments.  I'm trying to be part of the solution.

API"?? Afaik I'm running the latest FUEL distro released, which is 
fuel 8.0is there any new version available?



Not you, the Fuel developers.

Static linking Bad.  We can debate why elsewhere.

Go with dynamic linking is possible, and should be what the

I have to call the keystone APIs and want to use the windows

integration with AD at the back end. To get the initial token to
use OpenStack APIs, I need to pass user name and password in the
keystone token creation api.

Since I am already logged on to my windows domain, is there any
way that I can get the token without passing the password in the api.


Yes, use SSSD and Mod_Lookup_Identity:

Nope.  Don't get me wrong, I've written more than my fair share of Java

Java fills the same niche as Python.  We already have one of those, and
its very nice (according to John Cleese).


A couple of folks in this thread already stated that the primary 
reason to switch from Python-based languages is the concurrency story. 
JVM solves it and does it in the same manner as Go (at least that's my 
assumption).


(not advocating for JVM, just trying to understand the objection)



So, what I think we are really saying here is "what is our Native
extension story going to be? Is it the traditional native languages, or
is it something new that has learned from them?"

Go is a complement to Python to fill in the native stuff.  The
alternative is C or C++.  Ok Flapper, or Rust.


C, C++, Rust, yes, I'd call them "native".

A language with a GC and green threads does not fall into "native" 
category for me, rather the same as JVM.


MOre complex than just that.  But Go does not have a VM, just put a lot 
of effort into co-routines without taking context switches. Different 
than green threads.


http://programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/222642/are-go-langs-goroutine-pools-just-green-threads


You can do userland level co-routines in C, C++ and Erlang, probably 
even Rust (even if it is not written yet, no idea).  Which is different 
than putting in a code translation layer.


We are not talking about a replacement for Python here.  We are talking 
about a language to use for native optimizations when Python's 
concurrency model or other overhead gets in the way.


In scientific computing, using a language like R or Python to then call 
into a linear algebra or messaging library is the norm for just this 
reason.  Since we are going to be writing the native code here, the 
question is what language to use for it.


We are not getting rid of python, and we are not bringing in Java. Those 
are different questions.



The question is "How do we take performance sensitive sections in 
OpenStack and optimize to native?"


The list of answers that map to the question here as I see it include:

1.  We are not doing native code, stop asking.
2.  Stick with C
3.  C or C++ is Ok
4.  Fortran (OK I just put this in to see if you are paying attention).
5.  Go
6.  Rust (Only put in to keep Flapper off my back)


We have two teams asking for Go, and Flapper asking for Rust.  No one 
has suggested new native code in C or C++, instead those types of 
projects seem to be kept out of OpenStack proper.







This is coming from someone  that has done Kernel stuff.  I did C++ in
both the Windows and Linux worlds.  I've written inversion of control
stuff in C++ template metaprogramming.  I am not personally afraid of
writing code in either language. But I don't want to inflict that on
OpenStack.  Its a question of reducing complexity, not increasing it.

Looks like a good alternative.

Honestly, nobody should be using pymemcache or python-memcached or
pylibmc for anything caching related in OpenStack. People should be
using oslo.cache - however, if that needs work before it's usable,
people should be using dogpile.cache, which is what oslo.cache uses on
the backend.

dogpile is pluggable, so it means that the backend used for caching
can be chosen in a much broader manner. As morgan mentions elsewhere,
that means that people who want to use a different memcache library
just need to write a dogpile driver.

Please don't anybody directly use memcache libraries for caching in
OpenStack. Please.


Using dogpile doesn't remove the decision of what caching backend is
used. Dogpile has support (I think) for all the libraries mentioned here:

https://bitbucket.org/zzzeek/dogpile.cache/src/87965ada186f9b3a4eb7ff033a2e31437d5e9bc6/dogpile/cache/backends/memcached.py


Oslo cache would need to be the one making decision as to what backend
is used if we need to have something consistent.

I do not understand why oslo.cache would make a backend decision. It's a
config-driven thing. I could see oslo.cache having a _default_ ... but
having oslo.cache use dogpile.cache and then remove the ability for a
deployer to chose which caching backend dogpile uses seems more than
passing strange to me.


With oslo cache, you say "I want memcache" and Oslo picks the driver.  
Standardizes the implementation within OpenStack.





With that said, it is important that we understand what projects have
specific requirements or have experienced issues, otherwise there is a
good chance teams will hit an issue down the line and have to work
around it.

Yup. Totally agree. I certainly don't want to imply that there aren't
issues with memcache libs nor that they shouldn't be fixed. Merely
trying to point out that individual projects programming to the
interface of any of the libs is a thing that should be fixed.

Can we just up and support Go, please?  I'm a C++ and C buff, but I 
would not inflict either of those on other people, nor would I want to 
support their code. Go is designed to be native but readable/writable.



There is nothing perfect in this world.

Python for most things.
Javascript for web out of necessity
Go for native tuning.

Yes, Flapper, I like Rust, too, but we have to pick something, and I am 
not the one trying to code this.


It makes sense. Go is already packaged for Fedora and Debian.  We can 
deal with it.

This  also comes back to the conversation at the summit. We need to
propose the timeline to turn over for V3 (regardless of
voting/non-voting today) so that it is possible to set the timeline that
is expected for everything to get fixed (and where we are
expecting/planning to stop reverting while focusing on fixing the
v3-only changes).

I am going to ask the Keystone team to set forth the timeline and commit
to getting the pieces in order so that we can make v3-only voting rather
than playing the propose/revert game we're currently doing. A proposed
timeline and gameplan will only help at this point.


can anyone confirm when we deprecated keystonev2? i see a bp[1] related
to deprecation that was 'implemented' in 2013.

i realise switching to v3 breaks many gates but it'd be good to at some
point say it's not 'keystonev3 breaking the gate' but rather 'projectx
is breaking the gate because they are using keystonev2 which was
deprecated 4 cycles ago'. given the deprecation period allowed already,
can we say "here's some help, fix/merge this by
, or your gate will be broken until then"?
(assuming all the above items by Raildo doesn't fix everything).


I'd like to say Ocata.

This  also comes back to the conversation at the summit. We need to 
propose the timeline to turn over for V3 (regardless of 
voting/non-voting today) so that it is possible to set the timeline 
that is expected for everything to get fixed (and where we are 
expecting/planning to stop reverting while focusing on fixing the 
v3-only changes).


I am going to ask the Keystone team to set forth the timeline and 
commit to getting the pieces in order so that we can make v3-only 
voting rather than playing the propose/revert game we're currently 
doing. A proposed timeline and gameplan will only help at this point.


I would like to draw a line in the sand and say that it has to be there 
for Ocata. We should be working through the issues the Newton release, 
and have a firm "Ocata should expect to be run V3 only, with V2.0 an 
optional feature that can be enabled for backwards compatibility if 
required."



To me, Ocata is the finish line:  there have been a lot of features that 
Keystone has needed for a long time, and they are finally starting to 
come together.  V3 support, and all that it enables is on of the big 
ones, and we need to give people enough information to plan, and enough 
time to adjust.



V3 support is essential for the way that most people are deploying: User

locally.  We need to treat this as baseline, and make sure that the

Hi,

During the recent weeks, we've noticed that some features would have a
common challenge to solve:
How to share informations or files between nodes, during a multi-node
deployment.

A few use-cases:

* Deploying Keystone using Fernet tokens

Adam Young started this topic a few weeks ago, we are investigating
how to integrate Fernet in TripleO.
The main challenge is that we want to generate keys periodically for
security purposes.
In multi-node environment, when using HAproxy, you need to make sure
all Fernet keys are the same otherwise you expose the risk of an user
connected to a Keystone server that won't be able to validate Token.
We need a way to:
1) generate tokens periodically. It could be in puppet-keystone, we
already have a crontab example:
https://github.com/openstack/puppet-keystone/tree/master/manifests/cron
2) distribute the key from a node to other nodes <-- that is the challenge.
note: I confirmed with ayoung, and there is no need to restart
Keystone when we change a token.

* Scaling down/up Swift cluster

It's currently impossible to scale down/up a Swift cluster in TripleO
because the ring is built during deployment and never updated
afterwards. It makes Swift not really usable in production without
manual intervention.
Since we don't use a set of classes in puppet-swift that performs this
action because they require PuppetDB, we need to find a way to
redistribute the ring when we add or remove Swift nodes in a TripleO
Cloud.
Maybe we can investigate some Mistral actions or Heat, that would run
the swift commands to re-distribute the ring.

* Dynamic discovery

An example of use-case is: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/304125/
We want to manage Keystone resources for services (ie: nova endpoints,
etc) from the services roles (ie: nova-api), so we stop creating all
endpoints from the keystone profile role.
The current issue with composable services is that until now (tell me
if I'm wrong), keystone role is not aware if whether or not we run
gnocchi-api in our cloud so we don't know if we need to create the
endpoints etc.
On the review, please my (long) comment on Patch Set 12, where we
expose our current challenges.



Policy file distribution also ties in here, especially if we want to be 
able make different policy for different endpoints of the same service.





I hope by this thread that we can boostrap some discussions around
these challenges, because we'll keep having them with the complexity
of OpenStack deployments.
Feel free to comment / correct me / give any feedback on this initial
e-mail, thanks for reading so far.

+1 on desiring OAuth-style tokens in Keystone. The use cases that come 
up here are people wanting to be able to execute jobs that use the

able to associate credentials with a project instead of a specific 
person, so that if a person leaves or rotates their password it 
doesn't blow up their team's carefully crafted automation.
We can sort of work around it with LDAP service accounts as mentioned 
previously, but the concern around those is the lack of speedy 
revocability in the event of a compromise, and the service accounts 
could possibly be used to get to non-OpenStack places until they get 
shut down. One thought I had to try to keep the auth domain 
constrained to only OpenStack was using the EC2 API because at least 
that means you're not saving LDAP passwords on disk and the access 
keys are useless beyond that particular Keystone installation, but you 
run into impedance mismatches between the Nova API and AWS EC2 API, 
and we'd like people to use the native OpenStack APIs. (Turns out the 
notion of using AWS's EC2 API to talk to a private cloud is strange to 
people not steeped in cloudy things.)
So Service accounts and OAuth consumers are two different names for the 
same abstract construct. IN both cases, the important thing is limiting 
the access each one has.



Horizon is for the interactive use case, though, and should not be using 
either, except as a front to define workflows, and in that case, the 
same work should be possible from the command line.


ECP should make that possible, assuming your IdP supports ECP (EIEIO!).

Assuming all that is setup, the user should be unaware of the re-init to

Will look into this (also as per our discussion in Austin). The
one issue that has appeared in our continued discussions at home,
is the contrast against "service user accounts", that seems a
relatively prevalent/common among deployers today, which basically
use username/password as the api key credentials, e.g. the authZ
of the issued token: If AdminNameless is Domain Admin in their
domain, won't their OAuth access token yield keystone tokens with
the same authZ as they otherwise have? My presumptive answer being
'yes', brought me to the realization that, if one wants to avoid
going the way of "service user accounts" but still reduce authZ,
one would like to be able to get OAuth access tokens for a
specific project, with a specific role (e.g. "user",

Great - I was about to write a thread like this :)

Designate is looking to move a single component of ours to Go - and we
were wondering what was the best way to do it.

We discussed about this during the summit. You told me that the issue
was a piece of code that needed optimization, to which I replied that
probably, a C++ .so extension in a Python module is probably what you
are looking for (with the advice of not using CFFI which is sometimes
breaking things in distros).

Did you think about this other possibility, and did you discuss it with
your team?

We had a brief discussion about it, and we going to try a new POC in
C/C++ to validate it, but then this thread (and related TC policy) were
proposed.

If Golang is going to be a supported language, we would much rather
stick with one of the official OpenStack languages that suits our
use case instead of getting an exemption for another similar language.

When we spoke at the summit, I was under the impression that the feature
branch in swift was not going to be merged to master, and we would have
to get an exemption from the TC anyway - which we could have used to get
C / C++.

The team also much preferred the idea of Golang - we do not have much
C++ expertise in the Designate dev team, which would slow down the
development cycle for us.

-- Graham


At the Linux distribution level, the main issue that there is with Go,
is that it (still) doesn't support the concept of shared library. We see
this as a bug, rather than a feature. As a consequence, when a library
upgrades, the release team has to trigger rebuilds for each and every
reverse dependencies. As the number of Go stuff increases over time, it
becomes less and less manageable this way (and it may potentially be a
security patching disaster in Stable). I've heard that upstream for
Golang was working on implementing shared libs, but I have no idea what
the status is. Does anyone know?

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)

However, unlike the summit discussion, which specified only providing

Right now, Keystones without fernet keys, are issuing UUID tokens. These

The moment that one changes the configuration, keystone will start

that is fair to the users who will likely be shown new bugs in their

This will reduce the interruption and will also as you said possibly catch

our dev environment.

 From an operational POV, I can't imagine that any operators will go to
work one day and find out that they have a new token provider because of a
new default. Wouldn't the settings in keystone.conf be under some kind of
config management? I don't know what distros do with new defaults however,
maybe that would be the surprise?


With respect to upgrades, assuming we default to Fernet tokens in the
Newton release, it's only an issue if the the deployer has no token format
specified (since it defaulted to UUID pre-Newton), and relied on the
default after the upgrade (since it'll switches to Fernet in Newton).


Assume all users are using defaults.


I'm glad Matt outlines his reasoning above since that is nearly exactly
what Jesse Keating said at the Fernet token work session we had in Austin.
The straw man we come up with of a deployer that just upgrades without
checking then config files is just that, a straw man. Upgrades are well
planned and thought out before being performed. None of the operators in
the room saw this as an issue. We opened a bug to prevent keystone from
starting if fernet setup had not been run, and Fernet is the
selected/defaulted token provider option:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+bug/1576315



Right, I responded there, but just to be clear, this is not about
_operators_ being inconvenienced, it is about _users_.


For all new installations, deploying your cloud will now have two extra
steps, running "keystone-manage fernet_setup" and "keystone-manage
fernet_rotate". We will update the install guide docs accordingly.

With all that said, we do intend to default to Fernet tokens for the Newton
release.


Great! They are supremely efficient and I love that we're moving
forward. However, users really do not care about something that just
makes the operator's life easier if it causes all of their stuff to blow
up in non-deterministic ways (since their new jobs won't have that fail,
it will be a really fun day in the debug chair).




I wonder if one could merge UUID and Fernet into a provider which
handles this transition gracefully:

if self._fernet_keys:
   return self._issue_fernet_token()
else:
   return self._issue_uuid_token()

And in the validation, do the same, but also with an eye toward keeping
the UUID tokens alive:

if self._fernet_keys:
   try:
 self._validate_fernet_token()
   except InvalidFernetFormatting:
 self._validate_uuid_token()
else:
   self._validate_uuid_token()


This just seems sneaky/wrong to me. I'd rather see a failure here than
switch token formats on the fly.


You say "on the fly" I say "when the operator has configured things
fully".

Perhaps we have different perspectives. How is accepting what we
previously emitted and told the user would be valid sneaky or wrong?
Sounds like common sense due diligence to me.

Anyway, the idea could use a few kicks, and I think perhaps a better
way to state what I'm thinking is this:

When the operator has configured a new token format to emit, they should
also be able to allow any previously emitted formats to be validated to
allow users a smooth transition to the new format. We can then make the
default behavior for one release cycle to emit Fernet, and honor both
Fernet and UUID.

Perhaps ignore the other bit that I put in there about switching formats
just because you have fernet keys. Let's say the new pseudo code only
happens in validation:

try:
   self._validate_fernet_token()
except NotAFernetToken:
   self._validate_uuid_token()


I was actually thinking of a different migration strategy, exactly the 
opposite:  for a while, run with the uuid tokens, but store the Fernet 
body.  After while, switch from validating the uuid token body to the 
stored Fernet.  Finally,

If it is P, there are many other options:

 * Palmer

 * Pembroke

 * Phillipston 
 * Pittsfield 
   
 * Plainville  Schools

And Providnece is, I think cliose enough for inclusion as well.  And 
that is just the towns.



Plymouth is the only County in Mass with a P name, but Penobscott ME 
used to be part of MA, and should probably be in the running as well.

Hi everyone,

When will we name the P release of OpenStack?  We named two releases
simultaneously (Newton and Ocata) during the Mitaka release cycle.  This gave us
the names for the N (Mitaka), N+1 (Newton), and N+2 (Ocata) releases.

If we were to vote for the name of the P release soon (since the location is now
known) we would be able to have names associated with the current release cycle
(Newton), N+1 (Ocata), and N+2 (P).  This would also allow us to get back to
only voting for one name per release cycle but consistently have names for N,
N+1, and N+2.

Is there really going to be an option besides Plymouth?  I remember something
important happened there in 1620 ;-)

Re: [openstack-dev] [kolla][kubernetes] One repo vs two

[Adam Young]

On 05/01/2016 05:03 PM, Steven Dake (stdake) wrote:
Ryan had rightly pointed out that when we made the original proposal 
9am morning we had asked folks if they wanted to participate in a 
separate repository.


In Keystone, we are going to more and more repositories all the time.  
We started with everything in Keystone server, then split out the 
python-keystoneclient repo, then keystonemiddleware, and now 
keystoneauth.  Kerberos requires a separate auth repo, too, just due to 
package dependencies.  Multiple repos are not a bad thing.  The Policy 
store, and  the drivers behind identity are all candidates for future 
refactoring.


Splitting a repo is not a big deal, but it is easier to do up front than 
to retool.




I think starting with a separate, but supported repository makes things 
much easier.


Kolla is 2 things:

1.  Creation of Containers for deploying the base openstack services.
2.  Actual deployment of the same

I would argue that the architecture for this should be something like 4 
repos:


1.  Container production.  Assuming a single toolchain here.
2.  Kubernetes deploy
3.  Ansible deploy
4.  Mesos deploy
5.  kolla-deploy-common.

Python in general makes it hard to have more than one upstream library 
from a repo, so you really want to think about what it looks like from 
PyPi first and organize based on that.


If anything can be pulled out into its own repo, it should.

Yeah, it makes development a bit more of a pain, but there are ways to 
mitigate that.  git subprojects might be a painful one, but it is not 
the the only approach.


Over time, I would expect both the Ansible and Kubernetes repos 
themselves to be split into finer repos, with Ansible plugins and 
Kubernetes modules being separately managed.






I don't think a separate repository is the correct approach based upon 
one off private conversations with folks at summit.  Many people from 
that list approached me and indicated they would like to see the work 
integrated in one repository as outlined in my vote proposal email. 
 The reasons I heard were:


  * Better integration of the community
  * Better integration of the code base
  * Doesn't present an us vs them mentality that one could argue
happened during kolla-mesos
  * A second repository makes k8s a second class citizen deployment
architecture without a voice in the full deployment methodology
  * Two gating methods versus one
  * No going back to a unified repository while preserving git history

I favor of the separate repositories I heard

  * It presents a unified workspace for kubernetes alone
  * Packaging without ansible is simpler as the ansible directory need
not be deleted

There were other complaints but not many pros.  Unfortunately I failed 
to communicate these complaints to the core team prior to the vote, so 
now is the time for fixing that.


I'll leave it open to the new folks that want to do the work if they 
want to work on an offshoot repository and open us up to the possible 
problems above.


If you are on this list:

  * Ryan Hallisey
  * Britt Houser

  * mark casey

  * Steven Dake (delta-alpha-kilo-echo)

  * Michael Schmidt

  * Marian Schwarz

Re: [openstack-dev] [oslo.config] Encrypt the sensitive options

Hello, oslo team

For now, some sensitive options like password or token are configured 
as plaintext, anyone who has the priviledge to read the configure file 
can get the real password, this may be a security problem that can't 
be unacceptable for some people.


So the first solution comes to my mind is to encrypt these options 
when configuring them and decrypt them when reading them in 
oslo.config. This is a bit like apache/openldap did, but the 
difference is these softwares do a salt hash to the password, this is 
a one-way encryption that can't be decrypted, these softwares can 
recognize the hashed value. But if we do this work in oslo.config, for 
example the admin_password in keystone_middleware section, we must 
feed the keystone with the plaintext password which will be hashed in 
keystone to compare with the stored hashed password, thus the encryped 
value in oslo.config must be decryped to plaintext. So we should 
encrypt these options using symmetrical or unsymmetrical method with a 
key, and put the key in a well secured place, and decrypt them using 
the same key when reading them.


Of course, this feature should be default closed. Any ideas?


PKI.  Each service gets a client certificate that they use, signed by a 
selfsigned CA on the controller node, and uses the Tokenless/X509 
Mapping in Keystone to identify itself.


Do not try to build a crypto system around passwords.  None of us are 
qualified to do that.


We should be able to kill explicit service users and use X509 any way.

Kerberos would work, too, for deployments that prefer that form of 
Authentication.  We can document this, but do not need to implement.


Certmonger can manage the certificates for us.

Anchor can act as the CA for deployments that want something more than 
selfsigned, but don't want to go with a full CA.

group_dns = ['cn=GroupX,ou=Groups,ou=YYY,dc=...']

Therefore the check:

Will return false. I do not understand how this should work -
why should user_dn match group_dn?



I would not advise using the LDAP assignment backend, but rather use 
LDAP for identity, and put assignments in SQL.  LDAP assignments was 
deprecated a few releases ago and has since been removed.

One thing that would help is if core reviews would +2 instead of +1'ing

good, etc. then go on and +2 it. Don't wait for CI to pass before
coming back around to add your final stamp of approval. We all agree
that the tripleo-check jobs should be passing (or have passed once
collectively) before making any final +A to the patch.


Agreed. The rationale for +1 is only if you are a contributor to the 
patch, and someone else has made changes.  +1 Indicates that you are 
happy with the other person's changes.




The case for a core reviewer to +1 a patch is rare I think. If you have
some comments to add but don't want to +2 it then perhaps add those
comments with a +0 (or -1 if you think it needs fixed). Sure there are
some edge cases where +1's are helpful. But if our goal is to land good
code faster I think it would be more helpful to go ahead and +2 and let
the CI results fall where they may.

On 04/18/2016 09:19 AM, Daniel P. Berrange wrote:

There have been threads in the past about the slowness of the "openstack"
client tool such as this one by Sean last year:

   http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-April/061317.html

Sean mentioned a 1.5s fixed overhead on openstack client, and mentions it
is significantly slower than the equivalent nova command. In my testing
I don't see any real speed difference between openstack & nova client
programs, so maybe that differential has been addressed since Sean's
original thread, or maybe nova has got slower.

Overall though, I find it is way too sluggish considering it is running
on a local machine with 12 cpus and 30 GB of RAM.

I had a quick go at trying to profile the tools with cprofile and analyse
with KCacheGrind as per this blog:

   
https://julien.danjou.info/blog/2015/guide-to-python-profiling-cprofile-concrete-case-carbonara

And notice that in profiling 'nova help' for example, the big sink appears
to come from the 'pkg_resource' module and its use of pyparsing. I didn't
spend any real time to dig into this in detail, because it got me wondering
whether we can easily just avoid the big startup penalty by not having to
startup a new python interpretor for each command we run.

I traced devstack and saw it run 'openstack' and 'neutron' commands approx
140 times in my particular configuration. If each one of those has a 1.5s
overhead, we could potentially save 3 & 1/2 minutes off devstack execution
time.

So as a proof of concept I have created an 'openstack-server' command
which listens on a unix socket for requests and then invokes the
OpenStackShell.run / OpenStackComputeShell.main / NeutronShell.run
methods as appropriate.

I then replaced the 'openstack', 'nova' and 'neutron' commands with
versions that simply call to the 'openstack-server' service over the
UNIX socket. Since devstack will always recreate these commands in
/usr/bin, I simply put my replacements in $HOME/bin and then made
sure $HOME/bin was first in the $PATH

You might call this 'command line as a service' :-)

Anyhow, with my devstack setup a traditional install takes

   real 21m34.050s
   user 7m8.649s
   sys  1m57.865s

And when using openstack-server it only takes

   real 17m47.059s
   user 3m51.087s
   sys  1m42.428s

So that has cut 18% off the total running time for devstack, which
is quite considerable really.

I'm attaching the openstack-server & replacement openstack commands
so you can see what I did. You have to manually run the openstack-server
command ahead of time and it'll print out details of every command run
on stdout.

Anyway, I'm not personally planning to take this experiment any further.
I'll probably keep using this wrapper in my own local dev env since it
does cut down on devstack time significantly. This mail is just to see
if it'll stimulate any interesting discussion or motivate someone to
explore things further.


I wonder how much of that is Token caching.  In a typical CLI use 
patter, a new token is created each time a client is called, with no 
passing of a token between services.  Using a session can greatly 
decrease the number of round trips to Keystone.

Daniel

Hi,

we're deploying Liberty (soon Mitaka) with heavy reliance on the SAML2

The problem in this situation is getting a token for direct API

There are conceptually two methods to use the CLI:
  1) Modify ones (each customer -- in our case O(100)) IdP to add support
for a feature called ECP(**), and then use keystoneauth with SAML2
plugin,
We have this working.  Your SAML provider might not.  What Are you 
working with?




  2) Go to (for example) "Access & Security / API Access / View
Credentials" in Horizon, and check out a token from there.

Insecure as all get out.  Please no.



2) isn't implemented. 1) is a complete blocker for many customers.

Are there any principal and fundamental reasons why 2 is not doable?
What I imagine needs to happen:
   A) User is authenticated (see *) in Horizon,
   B) User uses said authentication (token) to request another token from
Keystone, which is displayed under the "API Access" tab on "Access &
Security".

 From a general perspective, I can't see why this shouldn't work.


Let me explain.   A Token is a symmetric shared secret.  You should not 
be copyuing it around, etc.  You don't make it readable in a Web UI.  
You control it, and ideally, never let it see the light of day.




Whatever scoping the user currently has should be sufficient to check
out a similarly-or-lesser scoped token.

Anyway, we will, if this is at all doable, bolt this onto our local
deployment. I do, A) believe we're not alone with this use case (***),
B) look for input on doability.

We'll be around in Austin for discussion with Horizon/Keystone regarding
this if necessary.

(* The reason this is a problem: With Federation, there are no local
users and passwords in the Keystone database. When authenticating to
Horizon in this setup, Keystone (I think) redirects the user to an HTTP
page on the home site's Identity Provider (IdP), which performs the
authentication. The IdP then signs a set of entitlements about this
identity, and sends these back to Keystone. Passwords stay at home. Epic
Win.)

(** ECP is a new feature, not supported by all IdP's, that at (second)
best requires reconfiguration of core authentication services at each
customer, and at worst requires customers to change IdP software
completely. This is a varying degree of showstopper for various
customers.)

In some deployment, they should be owned by different users.  In

I'm not a devstack user, but as I mentioned before, I assume
devstack called keystone-manage db_sync? Why couldn't it also
call keystone-manage fernet_setup?


When you tell devstack that it's using fernet then it does
keystone-manage fernet_setup. When you tell devstack to use the
default, it doesn't fernet_setup because for now it thinks the
default is UUID and doesn't require keys. One way to have devstack
work when fernet is the default is to have devstack always do
keystone-manage fernet_setup.

My thought was to have this as a temporary fix as the default changes.  
Once we settle in to Fernet, we can swap to "only Fernet if Fernet"


There is no reason Devstack can't read the config option from Keystone, 
but that is a larger c

Might be interesting having one this early in the cycle.

R-12 July 11-15

As usual this will be a 3 day event (probably Wed, Thurs, Fri), and 
based on previous attendance we can expect ~30 people to attend. Based 
upon all the information (other midcycles, other events, the US 
July4th holiday), I am thinking that week R-12 (the week of the 
newton-2 milestone) would be the best offering. Weeks before or after 
these three tend to push too close to the summit or too far into the 
development cycle.


I am trying to arrange for a venue in the Bay Area (most likely will 
be South Bay, such as Mountain View, Sunnyvale, Palo Alto, San Jose) 
since we have done east coast and central over the last few midcycles.


Please let me know your thoughts / preferences. In summary:

* Venue will be Bay Area (more info to come soon)

* Options of weeks (in general subjective order of preference): R-12, 
R-11, R-14

Re: [openstack-dev] [magnum][keystone][all] Using Keystone /v3/credentials to store TLS certificates

[Adam Young]

On 04/12/2016 03:43 PM, Hongbin Lu wrote:


Hi all,

In short, some Magnum team members proposed to store TLS certificates 
in Keystone credential store. As Magnum PTL, I want to get agreements 
(or non-disagreement) from OpenStack community in general, Keystone 
community in particular, before approving the direction.


In details, Magnum leverages TLS to secure the API endpoint of 
kubernetes/docker swarm. The usage of TLS requires a secure store for 
storing TLS certificates.



No it does not.

Nothing required "secure storing of certificates."

What is required is "secure storing of private keys."  Period. Nothing 
else needs to be securely stored.


Next step is the "signing" of X509 certificates, and this requires a 
CA.  Barbican is the OpenStack abstraction for a CA, but still requires 
a "real" implementation to back to.  Dogtag is available for this role.



Now, what Keystone can and should do is provide a way to map an X509 
Certificate to a user.  This is actually much better done using the 
Federation approach than the Credentials store.


Credentials kinda suck.  They should die in a fire.  They can't, but 
they should. Different rant though.


So, to nail it down specifically:  Keystone's  sole role here is to map  
the Subject from an X509 certificate to a user_id.  If you try to do 
anything more than that with Keystone, you are in a state of sin.


So, if what you want to do is to store an X509 Certificate in the 
Keystone Credentials API, go for it, but I don;'t know what it would buy 
you, as only the "owner" of that cert would then be able to retrieve it.



If, on the other hand, what you want to do is to decouple the 
request/approval of X509 dfrom Barbican, I would suggest you use 
Certmonger.  It is an Operating system level tool for exactly this 
purpose.  And then we should make sure that Barbican can act as a CA for 
Certmonger (I know that Dogtag can already).



There is nothing Magnum specific about this.  We need to solve the Cert 
story for OpenStack in general.  We need TLS for The Message Broker and 
the Database connections as well as any HTTPS servers we have.





Currently, we leverage Barbican for this purpose, but we constantly 
received requests to decouple Magnum from Barbican (because users 
normally don’t have Barbican installed in their clouds). Some Magnum 
team members proposed to leverage Keystone credential store as a 
Barbican alternative [1]. Therefore, I want to confirm what is 
Keystone team position for this proposal (I remembered someone from 
Keystone mentioned this is an inappropriate use of Keystone. Would I 
ask for further clarification?). Thanks in advance.

Secure the Message bus is essential anyway.  Let's not piecemeal a 
solution here.





Nova has several back channel mechanisms at its disposal. We should use one or 
more of them to solve the problem properly instead of opening a security hole 
in our solution to a security problem.

Such as:
  * The nova console is one mechanism that could be utilized as a secure back 
channel.
  * The vm based instances could add a virutal serial port as a back channel.
  * Some bare metal bmc's support virtual cd's which could be loaded with fresh 
credentials upon request.
  * The metadata server is reliable in certain situations.

I'm sure there are more options too.

The instance user spec covers a lot of that stuff.

I'm ok if we want to refactor the instance user spec to cover creating phase 1 
credentials that are intended to be used for things other then getting a 
keystone token. It could be used to register/reregister with ipa, chef, puppet, 
etc. We just need to reword the spec to cover that use case too.

I'm also not tied to the implementation listed. it just needs to meet the 
requirements.

Re: [openstack-dev] [tc][ptl][keystone] Proposal to split authentication part out of Keystone to separated project

[Adam Young]

On 04/06/2016 04:56 PM, Dolph Mathews wrote:
For some historical perspective, that's basically how v2 was designed. 
The "public" service (port 5000) did nothing but the auth flow. The 
"admin" service (port 35357) was identity management.


Unfortunately, there are (perhaps uncommon) authentication flows 
where, for example, you need to 1) authenticate for an unscoped token, 
2) retrieve a list of tenants where you have some authorization, 3) 
re-authenticate for a scoped token. There was a lot of end-user 
confusion over what port was used for what operations (Q: "Why is my 
curl request returning 404? I'm doing what the docs say to do!" A: 
"You're calling the wrong port."). More and more calls straddled the 
line between the two APIs, blurring their distinction.


The approach we took in v3 was to consolidate the APIs into a single, 
functional superset, and use RBAC to distinguish between use cases in 
a more flexible manner.

Hi stackers,

I would like to suggest very simple idea of splitting out of
Keystone authentication
part in the separated project.

Such change has 2 positive outcomes:
1) It will be quite simple to create scalable service with high
performance for authentication based on very mature projects like:
Kerberos[1] and OpenLDAP[2].


You can basically do this today if you just focus on implementing 
drivers for the few bits of keystone you need, and disable the rest.


We should deprecate the userid/password in the token Body and use the 
BasicAuth mechanism in its place.  Then Password could be a Federated 
call like anything else.  We could do that logic in Middleware instead 
of an apache module.


A comparble middleware/apache module could also be used in other 
services, allowing the identity inside of Keystone to be used with 
remote services.


Ideally, we would get out of the business of distributing tokens 
altogether, and use the standar Mechanism for authentication that the 
web has when talking to the services directly.  Keystone then reduces to 
a service catalog look up for end users.






2) This will reduce scope of Keystone, which means 2 things
2.1) Smaller code base that has less issues and is simpler for testing
2.2) Keystone team would be able to concentrate more on fixing
perf/scalability issues of authorization, which is crucial at the
moment for large clouds.


(2.2) is particularly untrue, because this will cause at least 2 
releases worth of refactoring work for everyone, and another 6 
releases justifying to deployers why their newfound headaches are 
worthwhile. Perhaps after burning those ~4 years of productivity, we'd 
be able to get back to "fixing perf/scalability issues of authorization."

4. Federation Support
5. SSH Access control to Hosts for both undercloud and overcloud
6. SUDO management
7. Single Sign On for Applications running in the overcloud.


The main pieces of FreeIPA are
1. LDAP (the 389 Directory Server)
2. Kerberos
3. DNS (BIND)
4. Certificate Authority (CA) server (Dogtag)
5. WebUI/Web Service Management Interface (HTTPD)

Of these, the CA is the most critical.  Without a centralized CA,
we
have no reasonable way to do certificate management.

Would using Barbican to provide an API to manage the certificates
make
more sense for our deployment tooling? This could be useful for
both
undercloud and overcloud cases.

As for the rest of this, how invasive is the implementation of
FreeIPA.? Is this something that we can layer on top of an existing
deployment such that users wishing to use FreeIPA can opt-in.


Now, I know a lot of people have an allergic reaction to some,
maybe
all, of these technologies. They should not be required to be
running
in
a development or testbed setup.  But we need to make it possible
to
secure an end deployment, and FreeIPA was designed explicitly for
these
kinds of distributed applications.  Here is what I would like to
implement.

Assuming that the Undercloud is installed on a physical machine,
we
want
to treat the FreeIPA server as a managed service of the
undercloud
that
is then consumed by the rest of the overcloud. Right now, there
are
conflicts for some ports (8080 used by both swift and Dogtag)
that
prevent a drop-in run of the server on the undercloud
controller.  Even
if we could deconflict, there is a possible battle between
Keystone
and
the FreeIPA server on the undercloud.  So, while I would like to
see
the
ability to run the FreeIPA server on the Undercloud machine
eventuall, I
think a more realistic deployment is to build a separate virtual
machine, parallel to the overcloud controller, and install
FreeIPA
there. I've been able to modify Tripleo Quickstart to provision
this
VM.

I was also able to run FreeIPA in a container on the undercloud
machine,
but this is, I think, not how we want to migrate to a container
based
strategy. It should be more deliberate.


While the ideal setup would be to install the IPA layer first,
and
create service users in there, this produces a different install
path
between with-FreeIPA and without-FreeIPA. Thus, I suspect the
right
approach is to run the overcloud deploy, then "harden" the
deployment
with the FreeIPA steps.


The IdM team did just this last summer in preparing for the Tokyo
summit, using Ansible and Packstack.  The Rippowam project
https://github.com/admiyo/rippowam was able to fully lock down a
Packstack based install.  I'd like to reuse as much of Rippowam
as
possible, but called from Heat Templates as part of an overcloud
deploy.  I do not really want to re implement Rippowam in Puppet.

As we are using Puppet for our configuration I think this is
currently
a requirement. There are many good puppet examples out there of
various
servers and a quick google search showed some IPA modules are
available
as well.

I think most TripleO users are quite happy in using puppet modules
for
configuration in that the puppet openstack modules are quite mature
and
well tested. Making a one-off exception for FreeIPA at this point
doesn't make sense to me.

What about calling an ansible playbook from a puppet module?

Given our current toolset in TripleO having the ability to manage all
service configurations with a common language overrides any short cuts
that calling Ansible from Puppet would give you I think.

The best plan I think for IPA integration into the Over and underclouds
would be a puppet-freeipa module.
Puppet is fine. I have some feedback from the IPA side that the 
https://github.com/purpleidea/puppet-ipa/  works ok.  Work on it seems 
to have tapered off last June, but we could revive.





So, big question: is Heat->ansible (instead of Puppet) for an
overcloud
deployment an acceptable path?  We are talking Ansible 1.0
Playbooks,
which should be relatively straightforward ports to 2.0 when the
time
comes.

Thus, the sequence would be:

1. Run existing overcloud deploy steps.
2. Install IPA server on the
