.. _msgr2-protocol:

msgr2 protocol (msgr2.0 and msgr2.1)
====================================

This is a revision of the legacy Ceph on-wire protocol that was
implemented by the SimpleMessenger.  It addresses performance and
security issues.

Goals
-----

This protocol revision has several goals relative to the original protocol:

* *Flexible handshaking*.  The original protocol did not have a
  sufficiently flexible protocol negotiation that allows for features
  that were not required.
* *Encryption*.  We will incorporate encryption over the wire.
* *Performance*.  We would like to provide for protocol features
  (e.g., padding) that keep computation and memory copies out of the
  fast path where possible.
* *Signing*.  We will allow for traffic to be signed (but not
  necessarily encrypted).  This is not implemented.

Definitions
-----------

* *client* (C): the party initiating a (TCP) connection
* *server* (S): the party accepting a (TCP) connection
* *connection*: an instance of a (TCP) connection between two processes.
* *entity*: a ceph entity instantiation, e.g. 'osd.0'.  each entity
  has one or more unique entity_addr_t's by virtue of the 'nonce'
  field, which is typically a pid or random value.
* *session*: a stateful session between two entities in which message
  exchange is ordered and lossless.  A session might span multiple
  connections if there is an interruption (TCP connection disconnect).
* *frame*: a discrete message sent between the peers.  Each frame
  consists of a tag (type code), payload, and (if signing
  or encryption is enabled) some other fields.  See below for the
  structure.
* *tag*: a type code associated with a frame.  The tag
  determines the structure of the payload.

Phases
------

A connection has four distinct phases:

#. banner
#. authentication frame exchange
#. message flow handshake frame exchange
#. message frame exchange

Banner
------

Both the client and server, upon connecting, send a banner::

  "ceph v2\n"
  __le16 banner payload length
  banner payload

A banner payload has the form::

  __le64 peer_supported_features
  __le64 peer_required_features

This is a new, distinct feature bit namespace (CEPH_MSGR2_*).
Currently, only CEPH_MSGR2_FEATURE_REVISION_1 is defined. It is
supported but not required, so that msgr2.0 and msgr2.1 peers
can talk to each other.

If the remote party advertises required features we don't support, we
can disconnect.

           +---------+        +--------+
           | Client  |        | Server |

                |<-----------+    |
                |                 |

Frame format
------------

After the banners are exchanged, all further communication happens
in frames.  The exact format of the frame depends on the connection
mode (msgr2.0-crc, msgr2.0-secure, msgr2.1-crc or msgr2.1-secure).
All connections start in crc mode (either msgr2.0-crc or msgr2.1-crc,
depending on peer_supported_features from the banner).

Each frame has a 32-byte preamble::

  __u8 tag
  __u8 number of segments
  {
    __le32 segment length
    __le16 segment alignment
  } * 4
  __u8 flags
  reserved (1 byte)
  __le32 preamble crc

An empty frame has one empty segment.  A non-empty frame can have
between one and four segments, all segments except the last may be
empty.

If there are less than four segments, unused (trailing) segment
length and segment alignment fields are zeroed.

### Currently supported flags

  1. FRAME_EARLY_DATA_COMPRESSED (see :ref:`msgr-post-compression`)

The reserved bytes are zeroed.

The preamble checksum is CRC32-C (see :ref:`crc`).  It covers
everything up to itself (28 bytes) and is calculated and verified
irrespective of the connection mode (i.e. even if the frame is
encrypted).

### msgr2.0-crc mode

A msgr2.0-crc frame has the form::

  preamble (32 bytes)
  {
    segment payload
  } * number of segments
  epilogue (17 bytes)

where epilogue is::

  __u8 late_flags
  {
    __le32 segment crc
  } * 4

late_flags is used for frame abortion.  After transmitting the
preamble and the first segment, the sender can fill the remaining
segments with zeros and set a flag to indicate that the receiver must
drop the frame.  This allows the sender to avoid extra buffering
when a frame that is being put on the wire is revoked (i.e. yanked
out of the messenger): payload buffers can be unpinned and handed
back to the user immediately, without making a copy or blocking
until the whole frame is transmitted.  Currently this is used only
by the kernel client, see ceph_msg_revoke().

The segment checksum is CRC32-C (see :ref:`crc`).  For "used"
empty segments, it is initialized with (__le32)-1. For unused
(trailing) segments, it is zeroed.

The crcs are calculated just to protect against bit errors.
No authenticity guarantees are provided, unlike in msgr1 which
attempted to provide some authenticity guarantee by optionally
signing segment lengths and crcs with the session key.

Issues:

1. As part of introducing a structure for a generic frame with
   variable number of segments suitable for both control and
   message frames, msgr2.0 moved the crc of the first segment of
   the message frame (ceph_msg_header2) into the epilogue.

   As a result, ceph_msg_header2 can no longer be safely
   interpreted before the whole frame is read off the wire.
   This is a regression from msgr1, because in order to scatter
   the payload directly into user-provided buffers and thus avoid
   extra buffering and copying when receiving message frames,
   ceph_msg_header2 must be available in advance -- it stores
   the transaction id which the user buffers are keyed on.
   The implementation has to choose between forgoing this
   optimization or acting on an unverified segment.

2. late_flags is not covered by any crc.  Since it stores the
   abort flag, a single bit flip can result in a completed frame
   being dropped (causing the sender to hang waiting for a reply)
   or, worse, in an aborted frame with garbage segment payloads
   being dispatched.

   This was the case with msgr1 and got carried over to msgr2.0.

### msgr2.1-crc mode

Differences from msgr2.0-crc:

1. The crc of the first segment is stored at the end of the
   first segment, not in the epilogue.  The epilogue stores up to
   three crcs, not up to four.

   If the first segment is empty, (__le32)-1 crc is not generated.

2. The epilogue is generated only if the frame has more than one
   segment (i.e. at least one of second to fourth segments is not
   empty).  Rationale: If the frame has only one segment, it cannot
   be aborted and there are no crcs to store in the epilogue.

3. Unchecksummed late_flags is replaced with late_status which
   builds in bit error detection by using a 4-bit nibble per flag
   and two code words that are Hamming Distance = 4 apart (and not
   all zeros or ones).  This comes at the expense of having only
   one reserved flag, of course.

Some example frames:

* A 0+0+0+0 frame (empty, no epilogue)::

    preamble (32 bytes)

* A 20+0+0+0 frame (no epilogue)::

    preamble (32 bytes)
    segment1 payload (20 bytes)
    __le32 segment1 crc

* A 0+70+0+0 frame::

    preamble (32 bytes)
    segment2 payload (70 bytes)
    epilogue (13 bytes)

* A 20+70+0+350 frame::

    preamble (32 bytes)
    segment1 payload (20 bytes)
    __le32 segment1 crc
    segment2 payload (70 bytes)
    segment4 payload (350 bytes)
    epilogue (13 bytes)

where epilogue is::

  __u8 late_status
  {
    __le32 segment crc
  } * 3

Hello
-----

* TAG_HELLO: client->server and server->client::

    __u8 entity_type
    entity_addr_t peer_socket_address

  - We immediately share our entity type and the address of the peer (which can be useful
    for detecting our effective IP address, especially in the presence of NAT).


Authentication
--------------

* TAG_AUTH_REQUEST: client->server::

    __le32 method;  // CEPH_AUTH_{NONE, CEPHX, ...}
    __le32 num_preferred_modes;
    list<__le32> mode  // CEPH_CON_MODE_*
    method specific payload

* TAG_AUTH_BAD_METHOD server -> client: reject client-selected auth method::

    __le32 method
    __le32 negative error result code
    __le32 num_methods
    list<__le32> allowed_methods // CEPH_AUTH_{NONE, CEPHX, ...}
    __le32 num_modes
    list<__le32> allowed_modes   // CEPH_CON_MODE_*

  - Returns the attempted auth method, and error code (-EOPNOTSUPP if
    the method is unsupported), and the list of allowed authentication
    methods.

* TAG_AUTH_REPLY_MORE: server->client::

    __le32 len;
    method specific payload

* TAG_AUTH_REQUEST_MORE: client->server::

    __le32 len;
    method specific payload

* TAG_AUTH_DONE: (server->client)::

    __le64 global_id
    __le32 connection mode // CEPH_CON_MODE_*
    method specific payload

  - The server is the one to decide authentication has completed and what
    the final connection mode will be.


Example of authentication phase interaction when the client uses an
allowed authentication method:

.. ditaa::

           +---------+        +--------+
           | Client  |        | Server |
           +---------+        +--------+
                | auth request    |
                |---------------->|
                |<----------------|
                |        auth more|
                |                 |
                |auth more        |
                |---------------->|
                |<----------------|
                |        auth done|


Example of authentication phase interaction when the client uses a forbidden
authentication method as the first attempt:

.. ditaa::

           +---------+        +--------+
           | Client  |        | Server |
           +---------+        +--------+
                | auth request    |
                |---------------->|
                |<----------------|
                |   bad method    |
                |                 |
                | auth request    |
                |---------------->|
                |<----------------|
                |        auth more|
                |                 |
                | auth more       |
                |---------------->|
                |<----------------|
                |        auth done|


Post-auth frame format
----------------------

Depending on the negotiated connection mode from TAG_AUTH_DONE, the
connection either stays in crc mode or switches to the corresponding
secure mode (msgr2.0-secure or msgr2.1-secure).

### msgr2.0-secure mode

A msgr2.0-secure frame has the form::

  {
    preamble (32 bytes)
    {
      segment payload
      zero padding (out to 16 bytes)
    } * number of segments
    epilogue (16 bytes)
  } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
  auth tag (16 bytes)

where epilogue is::

    __u8 late_flags
    zero padding (15 bytes)

late_flags has the same meaning as in msgr2.0-crc mode.

Each segment and the epilogue are zero padded out to 16 bytes.
Technically, GCM doesn't require any padding because Counter mode
(the C in GCM) essentially turns a block cipher into a stream cipher.
But, if the overall input length is not a multiple of 16 bytes, some
implicit zero padding would occur internally because GHASH function
used by GCM for generating auth tags only works on 16-byte blocks.

Issues:

1. The sender encrypts the whole frame using a single nonce
   and generating a single auth tag.  Because segment lengths are
   stored in the preamble, the receiver has no choice but to decrypt
   and interpret the preamble without verifying the auth tag -- it
   can't even tell how much to read off the wire to get the auth tag
   otherwise!  This creates a decryption oracle, which, in conjunction
   with Counter mode malleability, could lead to recovery of sensitive
   information.

   This issue extends to the first segment of the message frame as
   well.  As in msgr2.0-crc mode, ceph_msg_header2 cannot be safely
   interpreted before the whole frame is read off the wire.

2. Deterministic nonce construction with a 4-byte counter field
   followed by an 8-byte fixed field is used.  The initial values are
   taken from the connection secret -- a random byte string generated
   during the authentication phase.  Because the counter field is
   only four bytes long, it can wrap and then repeat in under a day,
   leading to GCM nonce reuse and therefore a potential complete
   loss of both authenticity and confidentiality for the connection.
   This was addressed by disconnecting before the counter repeats
   (CVE-2020-1759).

### msgr2.1-secure mode

Differences from msgr2.0-secure:

1. The preamble, the first segment and the rest of the frame are
   encrypted separately, using separate nonces and generating
   separate auth tags.  This gets rid of unverified plaintext use
   and keeps msgr2.1-secure mode close to msgr2.1-crc mode, allowing
   the implementation to receive message frames in a similar fashion
   (little to no buffering, same scatter/gather logic, etc).

   In order to reduce the number of en/decryption operations per
   frame, the preamble is grown by a fixed size inline buffer (48
   bytes) that the first segment is inlined into, either fully or
   partially.  The preamble auth tag covers both the preamble and the
   inline buffer, so if the first segment is small enough to be fully
   inlined, it becomes available after a single decryption operation.

2. As in msgr2.1-crc mode, the epilogue is generated only if the
   frame has more than one segment.  The rationale is even stronger,
   as it would require an extra en/decryption operation.

3. For consistency with msgr2.1-crc mode, late_flags is replaced
   with late_status (the built-in bit error detection isn't really
   needed in secure mode).

4. In accordance with `NIST Recommendation for GCM`_, deterministic
   nonce construction with a 4-byte fixed field followed by an 8-byte
   counter field is used.  An 8-byte counter field should never repeat
   but the nonce reuse protection put in place for msgr2.0-secure mode
   is still there.

   The initial values are the same as in msgr2.0-secure mode.

   .. _`NIST Recommendation for GCM`: https://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/Legacy/SP/nistspecialpublication800-38d.pdf

As in msgr2.0-secure mode, each segment is zero padded out to
16 bytes.  If the first segment is fully inlined, its padding goes
to the inline buffer.  Otherwise, the padding is on the remainder.
The corollary to this is that the inline buffer is consumed in
16-byte chunks.

The unused portion of the inline buffer is zeroed.

Some example frames:

* A 0+0+0+0 frame (empty, nothing to inline, no epilogue)::

    {
      preamble (32 bytes)
      zero padding (48 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)

* A 20+0+0+0 frame (first segment fully inlined, no epilogue)::

    {
      preamble (32 bytes)
      segment1 payload (20 bytes)
      zero padding (28 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)

* A 0+70+0+0 frame (nothing to inline)::

    {
      preamble (32 bytes)
      zero padding (48 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)
    {
      segment2 payload (70 bytes)
      zero padding (10 bytes)
      epilogue (16 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)

* A 20+70+0+350 frame (first segment fully inlined)::

    {
      preamble (32 bytes)
      segment1 payload (20 bytes)
      zero padding (28 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)
    {
      segment2 payload (70 bytes)
      zero padding (10 bytes)
      segment4 payload (350 bytes)
      zero padding (2 bytes)
      epilogue (16 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)

* A 105+0+0+0 frame (first segment partially inlined, no epilogue)::

    {
      preamble (32 bytes)
      segment1 payload (48 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)
    {
      segment1 payload remainder (57 bytes)
      zero padding (7 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)

* A 105+70+0+350 frame (first segment partially inlined)::

    {
      preamble (32 bytes)
      segment1 payload (48 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)
    {
      segment1 payload remainder (57 bytes)
      zero padding (7 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)
    {
      segment2 payload (70 bytes)
      zero padding (10 bytes)
      segment4 payload (350 bytes)
      zero padding (2 bytes)
      epilogue (16 bytes)
    } ^ AES-128-GCM cipher
    auth tag (16 bytes)

where epilogue is::

    __u8 late_status
    zero padding (15 bytes)

late_status has the same meaning as in msgr2.1-crc mode.

Compression
-----------
Compression handshake is implemented using msgr2 feature-based handshaking.
In this phase, the client will indicate the server if on-wire-compression can be used for message transmitting, 
in addition to the list of supported compression methods. If on-wire-compression is enabled for both client and server, 
the server will choose a compression method based on client's request and its' own preferences. 
Once the handshake is completed, both peers have setup their compression handlers (if desired). 

* TAG_COMPRESSION_REQUEST (client->server): declares compression capabilities and requirements::

    bool  is_compress
    std::vector<uint32_t> preferred_methods 

  - if the client identifies that both peers support compression feature, it initiates the handshake.
  - is_compress flag indicates whether the client's configuration is to use compression.
  - preferred_methods is a list of compression algorithms that are supported by the client.

* TAG_COMPRESSION_DONE (server->client) : determines on compression settings::

    bool is_compress
    uint32_t  method

  - the server determines whether compression is possible according to the configuration.
  - if it is possible, it will pick the most prioritized compression method that is also supported by the client.
  - if none exists, it will determine that session between the peers will be handled without compression.

.. ditaa::

           +---------+              +--------+
           | Client  |              | Server |
           +---------+              +--------+
                | compression request    |
                |----------------------->|
                |<-----------------------|
                |   compression done     |

# msgr2.x-secure mode

Combining compression with encryption introduces security implications.
Compression will not be possible when using secure mode, unless configured specifically by an admin. 

.. _msgr-post-compression:

Post-compression frame format 
-----------------------------
Depending on the negotiated connection mode from TAG_COMPRESSION_DONE, the connection is able to accept/send compressed frames or process all frames as decompressed.

# msgr2.x-force mode

All subsequent frames that will be sent via the connection will be compressed if compression requirements are met (e.g, the frames size).

For compressed frames, the sending peer will enable the FRAME_EARLY_DATA_COMPRESSED flag, thus allowing the accepting peer to detect it and decompress the frame.

# msgr2.x-none mode

FRAME_EARLY_DATA_COMPRESSED flag will be disabled in preamble.


Message flow handshake
----------------------

In this phase the peers identify each other and (if desired) reconnect to
an established session.

* TAG_CLIENT_IDENT (client->server): identify ourselves::

    __le32 num_addrs
    entity_addrvec_t*num_addrs entity addrs
    entity_addr_t target entity addr
    __le64 gid (numeric part of osd.0, client.123456, ...)
    __le64 global_seq
    __le64 features supported (CEPH_FEATURE_* bitmask)
    __le64 features required (CEPH_FEATURE_* bitmask)
    __le64 flags (CEPH_MSG_CONNECT_* bitmask)
    __le64 cookie

  - client will send first, server will reply with same.  if this is a
    new session, the client and server can proceed to the message exchange.
  - the target addr is who the client is trying to connect *to*, so
    that the server side can close the connection if the client is
    talking to the wrong daemon.
  - type.gid (entity_name_t) is set here, by combining the type shared in the hello
    frame with the gid here.  this means we don't need it
    in the header of every message.  it also means that we can't send
    messages "from" other entity_name_t's.  the current
    implementations set this at the top of _send_message etc so this
    shouldn't break any existing functionality.  implementation will
    likely want to mask this against what the authenticated credential
    allows.
  - cookie is the client cookie used to identify a session, and can be used
    to reconnect to an existing session.
  - we've dropped the 'protocol_version' field from msgr1

* TAG_IDENT_MISSING_FEATURES (server->client): complain about a TAG_IDENT
  with too few features::

    __le64 features we require that the peer didn't advertise

* TAG_SERVER_IDENT (server->client): accept client ident and identify server::

    __le32 num_addrs
    entity_addrvec_t*num_addrs entity addrs
    __le64 gid (numeric part of osd.0, client.123456, ...)
    __le64 global_seq
    __le64 features supported (CEPH_FEATURE_* bitmask)
    __le64 features required (CEPH_FEATURE_* bitmask)
    __le64 flags (CEPH_MSG_CONNECT_* bitmask)
    __le64 cookie

  - The server cookie can be used by the client if it is later disconnected
    and wants to reconnect and resume the session.

* TAG_RECONNECT (client->server): reconnect to an established session::

    __le32 num_addrs
    entity_addr_t * num_addrs
    __le64 client_cookie
    __le64 server_cookie
    __le64 global_seq
    __le64 connect_seq
    __le64 msg_seq (the last msg seq received)

* TAG_RECONNECT_OK (server->client): acknowledge a reconnect attempt::

    __le64 msg_seq (last msg seq received)

  - once the client receives this, the client can proceed to message exchange.
  - once the server sends this, the server can proceed to message exchange.

* TAG_RECONNECT_RETRY_SESSION (server only): fail reconnect due to stale connect_seq

* TAG_RECONNECT_RETRY_GLOBAL (server only): fail reconnect due to stale global_seq

* TAG_RECONNECT_WAIT (server only): fail reconnect due to connect race.

  - Indicates that the server is already connecting to the client, and
    that direction should win the race.  The client should wait for that
    connection to complete.

* TAG_RESET_SESSION (server only): ask client to reset session::

      __u8 full

  - full flag indicates whether peer should do a full reset, i.e., drop
    message queue.


Example of failure scenarios:

* First client's client_ident message is lost, and then client reconnects.

Message exchange
----------------

Once a session is established, we can exchange messages.

* TAG_MSG: a message::

    ceph_msg_header2
    front
    middle
    data_pre_padding
    data

  - The ceph_msg_header2 is modified from ceph_msg_header:
      * include an ack_seq.  This avoids the need for a TAG_ACK
        message most of the time.
      * remove the src field, which we now get from the message flow
        handshake (TAG_IDENT).
      * specifies the data_pre_padding length, which can be used to
        adjust the alignment of the data payload.  (NOTE: is this is
        useful?)

* TAG_ACK: acknowledge receipt of message(s)::

    __le64 seq

  - This is only used for stateful sessions.

* TAG_KEEPALIVE2: check for connection liveness::

    ceph_timespec stamp

  - Time stamp is local to sender.

* TAG_KEEPALIVE2_ACK: reply to a keepalive2::

    ceph_timestamp stamp

  - Time stamp is from the TAG_KEEPALIVE2 we are responding to.

* TAG_CLOSE: terminate a connection

  Indicates that a connection should be terminated. This is equivalent
  to a hangup or reset (i.e., should trigger ms_handle_reset).  It
  isn't strictly necessary or useful as we could just disconnect the
  TCP connection.

CRC Calculation
---------------

The CRC algorithm used in this section has the following parameters:

* Width: 32 bits
* Poly: ``0x1EDC6F41``
* Init: ``0`` (for preamble CRC), ``(__le32)-1`` = ``0xFFFFFFFF`` (for segment data CRC)
* Refin: ``true``
* Refout: ``true``
* Xorout: ``0``
* Check: ``0``
* Residue: ``0``
