OpenAFS 1.5.75 was released on July 7. It includes various fixes and improvements.
There is the start of a test harness in 1.5.75 and the master git branch. The tests give output in the Test Anything Protocol (TAP), which makes it easy to integrate tests written different languages. All tests will eventually reside in the "tests" folder in git. Please refer to the "tests/README" and "tests/HOWTO" files in the openafs git repository for more information on how to write tests.
As was discussed in the chat rooms and mailing lists, the --enable-fast-restart configure option has been removed on the master branch to deter novice users from using it without understanding the ramifications. This option allows the file server to restart after a crash without salvaging volumes first. This option is dangerous because data corruption may go unnoticed because the volumes might not be salvaged while a good backup is still around. The demand-attach file server offers a better option, which allows for quicker start up than the non-demand-attach server with less chance of data corruption. Only the fast-restart configure option was removed. The fast-restart code will remain in the tree until at least version 2.0. If you still need to enable the fast-restart functionality and understand the consequences, then run configure, add the line "#define FAST_RESTART 1" to src/config/afsconfig.h and compile.
Around the time of the 1.5.75 release, a new development plan was announced. The new plan calls for multiple simultaneously developed branches, which will be released as different versions. The new versions will be as follows:
1.6.x (stable) - branching is imminent. The 1.6 branch will be cut form the current master branch. Some release candidates will be released to iron out the bugs before the 1.6.0 release. 1.6 will be the new stable branch, which will replace 1.4.
1.7.x (development) - This branch will be based on the 1.6 branch sometime after 1.6.0 is released. It will include all patches from 1.6.x and will serve the integration of the Native Windows (IFS) client.
1.8.x (stable) - Once 1.7 is considered stable, the 1.8 branch will be cut from 1.7 and, the 1.6 branch will be retired.
1.9.x (development) - After the 1.6 branch is cut, the master branch will be opened for various changes targeted for 1.9. This will include IFS and non-IFS changes. The plan is to focus resources on having a 1.6.0 release before a 1.9.0 release, but these releases may happen out of order.
2.0.x (stable) - based on 1.9. The IFS client is planned to be included. The 2.0.0 release will not happen before the 1.8.0 release.
The AFSLore Wiki has a new location and different software. The new location is http://wiki.openafs.org/AFSLore/WebHome/, and the wiki was converted from twiki to ikiwiki. ikiwiki allows the wiki content to be stored in git. This allows for content edits to be done through the web or through git.
In this issue, I would like thank Thomas Payerle from The University of Maryland (College Park) for being profiled in the newsletter. --Jason
Thomas Payerle is an IT Sys Analyst at UMD.
Jason: How many full-time and part-time people are responsible for AFS support and in what capacity?
Thomas: A manager and five full-time staff, however, administering AFS is a fairly small part of their job. Other responsibilities include support of the campus Kerberos infrastructure, three medium-sized high performance computing clusters, and general system support for 300 or so University Solaris and Linux systems.
Jason: How much data do you store in AFS?
Thomas: We have 40TB or so dedicated to AFS storage. About 5TB resides on our SAN and 35TB on direct attached RAID storage. Actual usage is much less.
Jason: Do you use contractors or vendors to augment your workforce? If so, do they use your AFS space?
Thomas: Rarely, but if the need arises and AFS access is required, we provide it.
Jason: How do you use OpenAFS?
Thomas: OpenAFS is integral to the Unix environment that comprises our academic, research, and computing infrastructure. We use it to replicate core OS components and applications running on Linux and Solaris. We also use it to deploy some Microsoft Windows applications. User home directories and web pages reside in AFS, as does the University's central web hosting and WebSphere environments. Access to AFS has traditionally been provided via a native client, which is installed by default on all supported Linux and Solaris machines and by hand on Windows and Macintosh desktops on an as needed basis. More recently, we also have begun providing AFS access via a native web interface (a locally-modified MFILE clone) and via WebDAV.
Jason: How many servers do you have?
Thomas: 10 file servers, 3 DB servers
Jason: Are they in different locations? How far apart are they?
Thomas: Servers reside in three campus locations that are approximately 0.25 miles (0.5 km) apart.
Jason: Do you use any other network storage to supplement AFS, like Dropbox, or Windows shares?
Is AFS the only networked file-system that you use?
If not, what are the others, and how do they compare/contrast?
If applicable, why do you use the other file-systems?
Thomas: Microsoft DFS is the networked file-system of choice for Windows desktops attached to the campus Active Directory infrastructure. CIFS is also used, though predominantly to integrate Windows desktops in departments with Linux infrastructures. Such departments also often use NFS, especially those units who have the need/desire for departmental control. NFS is also often used to provide access to large data sets for researchers with high-speed network connections who don't need the management features of AFS and don't benefit much from its caching performance.
Finally, Lustre is replacing NFS in the HPCC arena due to its high performance
Jason: Is your investment in AFS increasing or decreasing?
Thomas: No change.

The Workshop Organizers,
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
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-brashear-afs3-pts-extended-names
Status: Third Draft
draft-brashear-afs3-pts-extended-names continues to be available for review. There is still discussion about the technical content and background references.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-benjamin-extendedcallbackinfo
Status: Active - Waiting on RPC refresh
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
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wilkinson-afs3-rxgk
Status: Active
Rxgk is a security layer for AFS which will support strong encryption and authentication through Kerberos v5, GSI and any other GSSAPI security mechanism.
Changes which are considered suitable for the 1.5.x series are in git - look for changes with author sxw@your-file-system.com. A development tree, which will be frequently rebased, is at http://github.com/your-file-system/openafs-rxgk
Last Update: Jan 9, 2010
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-deason-afs3-acl-restrictions
Status: Second draft
Last update: January 13, 2010
This draft calls for volume-level restrictions on what users with 'a' administrator rights to a folder may do. For example, you may want to prevent users from granting 'w' write access to 'system:anyuser', which would give anyone in the world with an AFS client write access.
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:
new introductory section that better explains the relationship between Rx and AFS-3 so that the document is more approachable for novices
additional prose in the security considerations section which better explains how this security object changes the attack vectors, as well as a brief mention of securing rxnull/rxclear with IPsec
flesh out the AFS assigned numbers registrar section with formal specifications for each newly requested registry
change the endpoint identifier type enumeration from 32-bits to 8-bits, as the larger size seemed quite wasteful
mark several security header fields as reserved for future use
I added a number of informative references to Transarc and CMU ITC tech reports
--Tom
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-tkeiser-afs3-volser-tlv
Status: Third Draft
Last Update: June 15, 2010
Here is the change log for this revision:
ERRATA: AFSCAPABILITIESMAX is actually defined to be 196, not 192
add section re: cache coherence to the tag enumeration RPC
add section re: day-of-week usage following discussion with mmeffie
s/AFSVOL_TLV_TAG_VOL_DAY_USE/AFSVOL_TLV_TAG_VOL_STAT_USE_TODAY/ following discussion with mmeffie
add AFSVOL_TLV_TAG_VOL_STAT_USE_TODAY_DATE following discussion with mmeffie
add section re: definition of each tlv payload type
add section re: definition of each tlv flag
add note soliciting comments to afs3-stds list
s/GCO Registrar/AFS Assigned Numbers Registrar/
s/afsint/AFSVol/ so that we keep our options open with respect to wider standardization of TLV semantics
add AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_UINT64_VEC payload type
convert various tags from AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_OPAQUE to AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_UINT64_VEC
add AFSVOL_TLV_FLAG_QUALIFIER_NO_MATCH flag
write AFSVol TLV Payloads registry definition
write AFSVol TLV Tags registry definition
add registry for AFSVol_TLV.tlv_flags
add registry for AFSVol_stat_use_per_dow.stat_flags
write AFSVol Vol State Expls registry definition
write AFSVol Program Types registry definition
add numeric value assignments for newly created registries
add RFC section references to new allocations
add reference to Simon's AFS-STDS charter
add an appendix with sample XDR for AFSVol Capabilities
add an appendix with sample XDR for AFSVol TLV
various cosmetic improvements (e.g. adding vspace tags)
Moving forward, I propose making one change in -03. Namely, I want to split type AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_UINT64 up into a few types that embed some limited semantic knowledge into the TLV layer. Specifically, I'm thinking of splitting AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_UINT64 into the following six types:
AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_UINT64 [generic unit-less type, as before]
AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_TIME_ABS [Simon's rpc refresh 100ns unit; absolute]
AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_TIME_REL [Simon's rpc refresh 100ns unit; relative]
AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_BLOCKS [storage in 1KiB units]
AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_VOLUME_ID
AFSVOL_TLV_TYPE_PARTITION_ID
All six would be backed by afs_uint64 in the AFSVol_TLV_value union. While this change isn't strictly necessary, it's relatively straightforward to implement, and makes the resulting volume TLV data considerably more self-describing.
As always, comments and feedback are invited.

The DAFS bug mentioned at the workshop involving restoring fileserver state has been fixed (gerrit 2205). One more DAFS bug involving demand-salvages of on-line volumes has been identified and is being worked on (gerrit 2329). A proposed run-time option is in gerrit 2277 to enable fast-restart-like functionality with DAFS. We're also working on Admin Guide and Quick Start documentation for DAFS, as well as always building DAFS and non-DAFS binaries (instead of having DAFS be a configure-time option). The positional I/O work and threaded salvaging work is postponed until after 1.6 has been branched.

One of the remaining demand-attach binaries has now been documented, leaving only one left to document. There have been some other, more minor improvements to the man page documentation.
The OpenAFS wiki has been relocated from dementia.org to a new permanent home and temporary URL at openafs-wiki.stanford.edu, probably soon to get a *.openafs.org DNS name. It is now using ikiwiki, and the eventual plan is to allow people to check out and commit to the underlying Git repository via Gerrit, which is more efficient than using the web editor for significant work.

The next rxk5 "m" base will be 1.5.74. Before dealing with the new "afsconf_PickClientSecObj", I updated rxk5 "xo" (1.4 base). [ The gatekeepers need not care, but rxk5 for 1.4 is more interesting to potential testers, then there's rxosd which has unique crypto. ] Nearly all of my recent work has been on refining patch splitting. I'm up to over 100 distinct patches. The split process can work on m, xo, or in the future rxk5 for rxosd or 1.6 or 1.9 The next snapshot I do will be of "xo". Feedback for those patches will improve what I do next for 1.5.74.
--Marcus

We have a new internal snapshot (alpha2) with 90% of the S3 functions. We have also a non-AFS-based simple authentication and some revision primitives, but it lacks some parts like logging or load balancing. We hope to release a preview soon.

Abstract:
The AFS protocol offers encryption for data transport from client to server. However, that data is stored on the server in cleartext, where it can potentially be read by the administrators of that server. This poses a real world problem for organizations who wish to outsource the provision of their file storage, whilst keeping their data confidential. This project would augment the existing AFS client to support encrypting data blocks before sending them to the file server.

The basic versions of the functions have been tested on both Linux and Windows and the the tests have been verified against the Microsoft implementation. A draft of the extended functions has also been written. The current focus is implementing tests for the extended functionalities of the extended functions to test the draft implementation and verify the functionality against the Microsoft implementation.
