Messenger v2¶

这是什么¶

The messenger v2 protocol, or msgr2, is the second major revision on Ceph’s on-wire protocol. It brings with it several key features:

A secure mode that encrypts all data passing over the network
Improved encapsulation of authentication payloads, enabling future integration of new authentication modes like Kerberos
Improved earlier feature advertisement and negotiation, enabling future protocol revisions

Ceph daemons can now bind to multiple ports, allowing both legacy Ceph clients and new v2-capable clients to connect to the same cluster.

By default, monitors now bind to the new IANA-assigned port 3300 (ce4h or 0xce4) for the new v2 protocol, while also binding to the old default port 6789 for the legacy v1 protocol.

地址格式¶

Prior to nautilus, all network addresses were rendered like 1.2.3.4:567/89012 where there was an IP address, a port, and a nonce to uniquely identify a client or daemon on the network. Starting with nautilus, we now have three different address types:

v2: v2:1.2.3.4:578/89012 identifies a daemon binding to a port speaking the new v2 protocol
v1: v1:1.2.3.4:578/89012 identifies a daemon binding to a port speaking the legacy v1 protocol. Any address that was previously shown with any prefix is now shown as a v1: address.
TYPE_ANY addresses identify a client that can speak either version of the protocol. Prior to nautilus, clients would appear as 1.2.3.4:0/123456, where the port of 0 indicates they are clients and do not accept incoming connections. Starting with Nautilus, these clients are now internally represented by a TYPE_ANY address, and still shown with no prefix, because they may connect to daemons using the v2 or v1 protocol, depending on what protocol(s) the daemons are using.

Because daemons now bind to multiple ports, they are now described by a vector of addresses instead of a single address. For example, dumping the monitor map on a Nautilus cluster now includes lines like:

epoch 1
fsid 50fcf227-be32-4bcb-8b41-34ca8370bd16
last_changed 2019-02-25 11:10:46.700821
created 2019-02-25 11:10:46.700821
min_mon_release 14 (nautilus)
0: [v2:10.0.0.10:3300/0,v1:10.0.0.10:6789/0] mon.foo
1: [v2:10.0.0.11:3300/0,v1:10.0.0.11:6789/0] mon.bar
2: [v2:10.0.0.12:3300/0,v1:10.0.0.12:6789/0] mon.baz

The bracketed list or vector of addresses means that the same daemon can be reached on multiple ports (and protocols). Any client or other daemon connecting to that daemon will use the v2 protocol (listed first) if possible; otherwise it will back to the legacy v1 protocol. Legacy clients will only see the v1 addresses and will continue to connect as they did before, with the v1 protocol.

Starting in Nautilus, the mon_host configuration option and -m <mon-host> command line options support the same bracketed address vector syntax.

绑定配置选项¶

Two new configuration options control whether the v1 and/or v2 protocol is used:

ms_bind_msgr1 [default: true] controls whether a daemon binds to a port speaking the v1 protocol

ms_bind_msgr2 [default: true] controls whether a daemon binds to a port speaking the v2 protocol

Similarly, two options control whether IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are used:

ms_bind_ipv4 [default: true] controls whether a daemon binds to an IPv4 address

ms_bind_ipv6 [default: false] controls whether a daemon binds to an IPv6 address

连接模式¶

v2 协议支持两种连接模式：

crc mode provides:
- a strong initial authentication when the connection is established (with cephx, mutual authentication of both parties with protection from a man-in-the-middle or eavesdropper), and
- a crc32c integrity check to protect against bit flips due to flaky hardware or cosmic rays
crc mode does not provide:
- secrecy (an eavesdropper on the network can see all post-authentication traffic as it goes by) or
- protection from a malicious man-in-the-middle (who can deliberate modify traffic as it goes by, as long as they are careful to adjust the crc32c values to match)
secure mode provides:
- a strong initial authentication when the connection is established (with cephx, mutual authentication of both parties with protection from a man-in-the-middle or eavesdropper), and
- full encryption of all post-authentication traffic, including a cryptographic integrity check.
In Nautilus, secure mode uses the AES-GCM stream cipher, which is generally very fast on modern processors (e.g., faster than a SHA-256 cryptographic hash).

连接模式配置选项¶

For most connections, there are options that control which modes are used:

ms_cluster_mode is the connection mode (or permitted modes) used for intra-cluster communication between Ceph daemons. If multiple modes are listed, the modes listed first are preferred.
ms_service_mode is a list of permitted modes for clients to use when connecting to the cluster.
ms_client_mode is a list of connection modes, in order of preference, for clients to use (or allow) when talking to a Ceph cluster.

There are a parallel set of options that apply specifically to monitors, allowing administrators to set different (usually more secure) requirements on communication with the monitors.

ms_mon_cluster_mode is the connection mode (or permitted modes) to use between monitors.
ms_mon_service_mode is a list of permitted modes for clients or other Ceph daemons to use when connecting to monitors.
ms_mon_client_mode is a list of connection modes, in order of preference, for clients or non-monitor daemons to use when connecting to monitors.

从仅有 v1 过渡到 v2+v1¶

By default, ms_bind_msgr2 is true starting with Nautilus 14.2.z. However, until the monitors start using v2, only limited services will start advertising v2 addresses.

For most users, the monitors are binding to the default legacy port 6789 for the v1 protocol. When this is the case, enabling v2 is as simple as:

ceph mon enable-msgr2

If the monitors are bound to non-standard ports, you will need to specify an additional port for v2 explicitly. For example, if your monitor mon.a binds to 1.2.3.4:1111, and you want to add v2 on port 1112,:

ceph mon set-addrs a [v2:1.2.3.4:1112,v1:1.2.3.4:1111]

Once the monitors bind to v2, each daemon will start advertising a v2 address when it is next restarted.

更新 ceph.conf 和 mon_host¶

Prior to Nautilus, a CLI user or daemon will normally discover the monitors via the mon_host option in /etc/ceph/ceph.conf. The syntax for this option has expanded starting with Nautilus to allow support the new bracketed list format. For example, an old line like:

mon_host = 10.0.0.1:6789,10.0.0.2:6789,10.0.0.3:6789

Can be changed to:

mon_host = [v2:10.0.0.1:3300/0,v1:10.0.0.1:6789/0],[v2:10.0.0.2:3300/0,v1:10.0.0.2:6789/0],[v2:10.0.0.3:3300/0,v1:10.0.0.3:6789/0]

However, when default ports are used (3300 and 6789), they can be omitted:

mon_host = 10.0.0.1,10.0.0.2,10.0.0.3

Once v2 has been enabled on the monitors, ceph.conf may need to be updated to either specify no ports (this is usually simplest), or explicitly specify both the v2 and v1 addresses. Note, however, that the new bracketed syntax is only understood by Nautilus and later, so do not make that change on hosts that have not yet had their ceph packages upgraded.

When you are updating ceph.conf, note the new ceph config generate-minimal-conf command (which generates a barebones config file with just enough information to reach the monitors) and the ceph config assimilate-conf (which moves config file options into the monitors’ configuration database) may be helpful. For example,:

# ceph config assimilate-conf < /etc/ceph/ceph.conf
# ceph config generate-minimal-config > /etc/ceph/ceph.conf.new
# cat /etc/ceph/ceph.conf.new
# minimal ceph.conf for 0e5a806b-0ce5-4bc6-b949-aa6f68f5c2a3
[global]
        fsid = 0e5a806b-0ce5-4bc6-b949-aa6f68f5c2a3
        mon_host = [v2:10.0.0.1:3300/0,v1:10.0.0.1:6789/0]
# mv /etc/ceph/ceph.conf.new /etc/ceph/ceph.conf
