General OpenAFS Progress

The official results for the chairs of the afs3-standardization group is still pending, waiting on the results from one of the three vote-takers.

Jeffrey Altman announced that the OpenAFS code base needs to migrate away from MIT Kerberos and towards Heimdal as the primary Kerberos library <http://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-devel/2010-September/017932.html>. This change is required to maintain a high-level of Windows support and to enable the use of stronger encryption. To make this change easier, a shim library is being developed at http://github.com/secure-endpoints/heimdal-krbcompat, which allows for either Kerberos distribution to be used. The transition was discussed on the openafs-devel mailing list with most people preferring that minimal Heimdal code be imported into the OpenAFS git repository.

Events

European AFS Conference

Thanks to Michal Svamberg for providing a summary of the European AFS Conference. --Ed.

The European OpenAFS & Kerberos Conference 2010 <http://afs2010.civ.zcu.cz> was held between 13 and 15 September 2010 in Pilsen <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plzeň>, Czech Republic <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czech_Republic>. It was hosted by the Centre for Information Technology, University of West Bohemia <http://www.zcu.cz/en/>. Earlier international conferences took place in Graz (2008) <http://www.openafs.at/> and Rome (2009) <http://www.dia.uniroma3.it/~afscon09/>.

The number of participants grows steadily and the event promises to become a regular European forum for OpenAFS users and developers. This year, there were 75 participants from nine different countries. In addition, on-line audience counting more than 50 viewers around the world was watching live streams.

The organizing institute has been an AFS user for many years, having started the early experiments with Transarc AFS in 1994 and relying on AFS as the only distributed file system across the campus (23000+ accounts, 200+ servers, 7800+ end user PCs) since 1996. Find more information on the distributed environment deployed by the hosting institute as well as other organizations relying on AFS and Kerberos in posters <http://afs2010.civ.zcu.cz/desc.php?name=sr>.

To name but a few lectures from the program:

Visit the conference web site at http://afs2010.civ.zcu.cz/agenda.php to watch recordings of other interesting talks.

The conference program also included two tutorials. The first one, Advanced Tuning & Troubleshooting <http://afs2010.civ.zcu.cz/desc.php?name=tutorial-II>, was given by Derrick Brashear and Jeffrey Altman. Participants were invited to present problems they are facing and received tips for tuning their environment to achieve better performance.

The second tutorial, Setting-up your AFS Cell <http://afs2010.civ.zcu.cz/desc.php?name=tutorial-I>, was given by Wolfgang Alexander Gehrke and Christof Hanke. It focused on beginners, who learned about the internals of the system and had a chance to try and set up their own file servers within a testing infrastructure.

The official program was complemented by social events. Participants have learned about the World's best beer, seen the brewery and tasted the final product. The organizers were delighted by their enthusiasm and also by the persistence of those who endured until late night or even early morning. See the image gallery <http://afs2010.civ.zcu.cz/gallery.php> for photographs taken at the conference sessions as well as the social events.

We would like to thank all attendants and we are looking forward to next year's event, which is going to be hosted by DESY <http://www.desy.de/> in Hamburg.

AFS Protocol Standardization

Informal drafts that haven't been uploaded to the IETF web site:

Rx Spec:

http://openafs.sinenomine.net/~mmeffie/rfc/draft-zeldovich-rx-spec-00.html

This draft is in the very early stages. Mike Meffie and Tom Keiser are the current owners of this proposal. A formal specification of Rx is needed as a basis for other IETF proposals.

Discussion on these proposals is welcome and should be done on the AFS3-standardization list at http://michigan-openafs-lists.central.org/mailman/listinfo/afs3-standardization

PTS Alternate Authentication

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-brashear-afs3-pts-extended-names

Status: Seventh Draft

Last update: August 31, 2010

A request for last call will happen soon.

--Derrick

AFS Callback Extensions

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-benjamin-extendedcallbackinfo

Status: Active - Waiting on RPC refresh

Last Update: September 23, 2009

The callback draft is stable. There is a published implementation. My understanding is that it is accepted with the requirement that it be adjusted to use RPC refresh data types, which means AFSFetchStatus64 and the new 100ns time data type. This is regarded as "trivial" but at the same time, the spec can't be standardized as is. It is planned for merge in, IIRC, 1.9/1.10.

--Matt Benjamin

RXGK

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wilkinson-afs3-rxgk

Status: Active

Last Draft Update: Jan 9, 2010

A working implementation of rxgk was demonstrated at the European AFS & Kerberos Workshop in Pilsen. Whilst there is still work to be done, both on completing the implementation, and on getting the code into the OpenAFS tree, this is an important milestone. Slides from the Pilsen talk are available on their web site, the current rxgk code is, as always, available on github.

--Simon Wilkinson

AFS3 ACL Rights

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-deason-afs3-acl-restrictions

Status: Second draft

Last update: January 13, 2010

We're waiting for the afs3-standardization structure to solidify before proceeding with this. So, no progress right now.

--Andrew Deason

Rx Security Object Providing Clear-text Peer Identity Assertions

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-tkeiser-rxrpc-sec-clear

Status: Third draft

Last Update: April 17, 2010

I released a new version of the Rx Clear security class I-D the other day. I am hereby soliciting comments on this new version of the draft.

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-tkeiser-rxrpc-sec-clear

The major changes in this version of the document are:

AFSVol Tag-Length-Value Remote Procedure Call Extensions

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-tkeiser-afs3-volser-tlv

Status: Fourth Draft

Last Update: August 4, 2010

The other week I submitted a new draft to the IETF which implements the aforementioned changes (as well as a few others). The new draft is available at the following URLs:

The complete revision history is as follows:

Any comments or feedback are appreciated.

AFS Byte-Range File Locking

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mbenjamin-afs-file-locking

Status: Fifth Draft

This draft proposes protocol extensions to support byte-range and mandatory locking.

The first draft was submitted on May 5, 2010.

Projects

Demand-Attach FileServer (DAFS)

Project Contacts:

A fix for improving startup preattachment speed was merged (gerrit 2648), as well as the minor fixes for -vhashsize (2649, 2650). The fix for salvaging attached volumes (2329) was almost merged, but had a conflict that was recently resolved and hasn't been merged yet. More prerequisites for salvageserver threading improvements have been merged (1862, 1863), and the improvements themselves should be in soon, as well. A fix for log-related performance problems with large numbers of volumes was submitted and merged in gerrit 2759.

--Andrew

Better Documentation

Project Contacts:

There were a few minor fixes, but I don't think any significant changes in the past month.

Port OpenAFS to NetBSD

Student Developer: Matt Smith <matt.j.sm@gmail.com>

Mentor: Matt Benjamin <matt@linuxbox.com>

Self-intro: https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-devel/2010-March/017450.html

Due to classwork, the only progress I've been able to make so far is to merge the changes from the summer with master.

The version that I pushed up still only had a mountable LKM, was able to retrieve the names of the files from the server but could not actually create the vnodes. So what remains is to finish debugging vnode creation, then move on to reading/writing, permissions, etc.

Unfortunately, I cloned master today and was unable to compile it again due to some Heimdal changes that had been merged. Those aren't from me, however. :)
