End-to-End keyserver implementation

The keyserver implementation is structured as a log-driven statemachine to support linearizable high-availability replication. The log in replication supports two main operations: Propose, which possibly appends an entry, and WaitCommitted, which returns new entries that are appended. All guarantees the server provides are provided through the log: for example, no new epoch is signed before all information about it has been committed. However, there are also nice-to-haves, for example reducing the load on the log, which are handled by sometimes holding back calls to Propose when it is likely that the appended value would be ignored anyway.

The lifecycle of an update is as follows:

  1. The client calls the update RPC
  2. The update is Propose-d and appended to the log
  3. run gets the update from WaitCommitted, calls step with it. step prepares an atomic change (kv.Batch) to the local database, and world-visible actions to be taken after the state change has been persisted (deferredIO).
  4. run gets an epoch delimiter from the log (how it gets there will be described later) and calls step on it; step composes and signs a summary of the new keyserver state and pushes it into the log (the "epoch head").
  5. run gets receives the signatures on the new epoch head from a majority of replicas and combines them to form the keyserver signature.
  6. The updates and the ratified state summary are made available to verifiers.
  7. Verifiers push ratifications, the ratifications get proposed to the log.
  8. run receives verifier ratifications from WaitCommitted, stores them in the local database.

Epoch delimiters are inserted equivalentlry to the following pseudocode:

for {
	if we are ALL
		likely the the leader of the cluster
		AND at least RetryEpochInterval has passed since the last time we `Propose`d an epoch delimiter
		AND either
			at least MinEpochInterval has passed since last ratification AND a new update has happened since the last delimiter
			at least MaxEpochInteval has passed since the last ratification
		then {
		`Propose` new EpochDelimiter with the next unused seq number and current time
		}
}

In the implementation, this busy-loop is turned into a non-blocking state machine by tracking changes to all inputs using channels. This implementation pattern is known as "sensitivity list" (in Verilog, for example) and is used for all proposals that need to be retried (most do!).

A key-value database is used for local storage, its key space is split into tables based on the first byte of the key as specified in tables.go. Big-endian unsigned integers are used to preserve sorting order for range traversals and cache locality.

The database interface also serves as a testing output (we really care that database writes happen before network requests, for example).

Functions

func RunWithConfig

func RunWithConfig(cfg *proto.ReplicaConfig)

Types

type Keyserver

type Keyserver struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Keyserver manages a single end-to-end keyserver realm.

func Open

func Open(cfg *proto.ReplicaConfig, db kv.DB, log replication.LogReplicator, initialAuthorizationPolicy *proto.AuthorizationPolicy, clk clock.Clock, getKey func(string) (crypto.PrivateKey, error), LookupTXT func(string) ([]string, error)) (ks *Keyserver, err error)

Open initializes a new keyserver based on cfg, reads the persistent state and binds to the specified ports. It does not handle input: requests will block.

func (*Keyserver) InRotation

func (ks *Keyserver) InRotation() bool

InRotation indicates whether the keyserver host is in rotation

func (*Keyserver) Lookup

func (ks *Keyserver) Lookup(ctx context.Context, req *proto.LookupRequest) (*proto.LookupProof, error)

Lookup implements proto.E2EKSLookupServer

func (*Keyserver) OIDCRequest

func (ks *Keyserver) OIDCRequest(domain string, uri string) (string, error)

func (*Keyserver) PushRatification

func (ks *Keyserver) PushRatification(ctx context.Context, r *proto.SignedEpochHead) (*proto.Nothing, error)

PushRatification implements the interfaceE2EKSVerification interface from proto/verifier.proto

func (*Keyserver) SAMLRequest

func (ks *Keyserver) SAMLRequest() (string, error)

SAMLRequest constructs the redirect URL with SAMLRequest as a query string parameter

func (*Keyserver) Start

func (ks *Keyserver) Start()

Start makes the keyserver start handling requests (forks goroutines).

func (*Keyserver) Stop

func (ks *Keyserver) Stop()

Stop cleanly shuts down the keyserver and then returns.

func (*Keyserver) Update

func (ks *Keyserver) Update(ctx context.Context, req *proto.UpdateRequest) (*proto.LookupProof, error)

Update implements proto.E2EKS.UpdateServer

func (*Keyserver) VerifierStream

VerifierStream implements the interfaceE2EKSVerification interface from proto/verifier.proto

type OIDCConfig

type OIDCConfig struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

OIDCConfig manages an OpenID Connect object

type Proposer

type Proposer struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func StartProposer

func StartProposer(log replication.LogReplicator, clk clock.Clock, initialDelay time.Duration, proposal replication.LogEntry) *Proposer

func (*Proposer) Stop

func (p *Proposer) Stop()

type SAMLReq

type SAMLReq struct {
	Payload   string
	IDPSSOURL string
}
