[Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC v3 for-2.9 08/11] rbd: Revert -blockdev and -drive parameter auth-supported
Posted by Markus Armbruster 8 years, 10 months ago
This reverts half of commit 0a55679.  We're having second thoughts on
the QAPI schema (and thus the external interface), and haven't reached
consensus, yet.  Issues include:

* The implementation uses deprecated rados_conf_set() key
  "auth_supported".  No biggie.

* The implementation makes -drive silently ignore invalid parameters
  "auth" and "auth-supported.*.X" where X isn't "auth".  Fixable (in
  fact I'm going to fix similar bugs around parameter server), so
  again no biggie.

* BlockdevOptionsRbd member @password-secret applies only to
  authentication method cephx.  Should it be a variant member of
  RbdAuthMethod?

* BlockdevOptionsRbd member @user could apply to both methods cephx
  and none, but I'm not sure it's actually used with none.  If it
  isn't, should it be a variant member of RbdAuthMethod?

* The client offers a *set* of authentication methods, not a list.
  Should the methods be optional members of BlockdevOptionsRbd instead
  of members of list @auth-supported?  The latter begs the question
  what multiple entries for the same method mean.  Trivial question
  now that RbdAuthMethod contains nothing but @type, but less so when
  RbdAuthMethod acquires other members, such the ones discussed above.

* How BlockdevOptionsRbd member @auth-supported interacts with
  settings from a configuration file specified with @conf is
  undocumented.  I suspect it's untested, too.

Let's avoid painting ourselves into a corner now, and revert the
feature for 2.9.

Note that users can still configure authentication methods with a
configuration file.  They probably do that anyway if they use Ceph
outside QEMU as well.

qemu_rbd_array_opts()'s parameter @type now must be RBD_MON_HOST,
which is silly.  This will be cleaned up shortly.

If we're only reverting the QMP blockdev-add feature, then this makes
absolute sense (it's not a regression since we don't have a release with
it yet, and we don't want to bake something into the release that can't
be supported).  But breaking -drive usage seems risky, especially since
libvirt is already expecting to work - I'm worried that doing this may
break existing libvirt command line usage if the QemuOpts side doesn't
permit anything at all.  Maybe we need to rely on your '=foo' or 'x-foo'
hack for letting QemuOpts still accept the old spelling during -drive
but not during QMP.

Removing the .json QMP support is fine. But I'm reluctant to give R-b
without knowing for sure that -drive usage won't regress.

There may still be some tweaks to improve the commit message and/or code
comments to clarify things that tripped me up until later in the
subthread, but now that I understand the difference between pseudo-file
format (where the key-value pair backdoor still works for libvirt's
usage of -drive file=rbd:...) and QemuOpts format (-drive driver=rbd,...
which didn't really exist in 2.8, and where we don't want to bake in
something we don't like in 2.9), I agree with the move.

I think this move makes sense; it allows blockdev-add to still be supported
for rbd, but does not lock us into a perhaps unwieldy API.
