This patch makes conditional the existing DB migration that adds the new indexes "target_tenant" and "action" in the "*rbacs" tables. The rationale of this patch is to be able to manually improve older systems by just manually creating the indexes in the database. Once these indexes are added, those operations including RBACs checks (all these called from non-admin user to RBAC administrated resourced) will be improved. This patch is avoiding the migration issue a system could find if these indexes have been manually added and then the system is upgraded. The new check added will first retrieve the table indexes; if the index is already present, the index addition is skipped. Closes-Bug: #2020802 Change-Id: I1962fbc844bb67180e9071bcee01f8e95853bdda

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
The Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) policy framework enables both operators and users to grant access to resources for specific projects.
Supported objects for sharing with specific projects
Currently, the access that can be granted using this feature is supported by:
- Regular port creation permissions on networks (since Liberty).
- Binding QoS policies permissions to networks or ports (since Mitaka).
- Attaching router gateways to networks (since Mitaka).
- Binding security groups to ports (since Stein).
- Assigning address scopes to subnet pools (since Ussuri).
- Assigning subnet pools to subnets (since Ussuri).
- Assigning address groups to security group rules (since Wallaby).
Sharing an object with specific projects
Sharing an object with a specific project is accomplished by creating
a policy entry that permits the target project the
access_as_shared
action on that object.
Sharing a network with specific projects
Create a network to share:
$ openstack network create secret_network

Create the policy entry using the openstack network rbac create
command (in this
example, the ID of the project we want to share with is
b87b2fc13e0248a4a031d38e06dc191d
):
$ openstack network rbac create --target-project \

+-------------------+--------------------------------------+
The target-project
parameter specifies the project that
requires access to the network. The action
parameter
specifies what the project is allowed to do. The type
parameter says that the target object is a network. The final parameter
is the ID of the network we are granting access to.
Project b87b2fc13e0248a4a031d38e06dc191d
will now be
able to see the network when running openstack network list
and openstack network show
and will also be able to create ports on that network. No other users
(other than admins and the owner) will be able to see the network.
Note
Subnets inherit the RBAC policy entries of their network.
To remove access for that project, delete the policy that allows it
using the openstack network rbac delete
command:
$ openstack network rbac delete f93efdbf-f1e0-41d2-b093-8328959d469e
If that project has ports on the network, the server will prevent the policy from being deleted until the ports have been deleted:
$ openstack network rbac delete f93efdbf-f1e0-41d2-b093-8328959d469e
RBAC policy on object f93efdbf-f1e0-41d2-b093-8328959d469e
cannot be removed because other objects depend on it.
This process can be repeated any number of times to share a network with an arbitrary number of projects.

+-------------------+--------------------------------------+
The target-project
parameter specifies the project that
requires access to the QoS policy. The action
parameter
specifies what the project is allowed to do. The type
parameter says that the target object is a QoS policy. The final
parameter is the ID of the QoS policy we are granting access to.
Project be98b82f8fdf46b696e9e01cebc33fd9
will now be
able to see the QoS policy when running openstack network qos policy list
and openstack network qos policy show
and will also be
able to bind it to its ports or networks. No other users (other than
admins and the owner) will be able to see the QoS policy.
To remove access for that project, delete the RBAC policy that allows
it using the openstack network rbac delete
command:
$ openstack network rbac delete 8828e38d-a0df-4c78-963b-e5f215d3d550
If that project has ports or networks with the QoS policy applied to them, the server will not delete the RBAC policy until the QoS policy is no longer in use:
$ openstack network rbac delete 8828e38d-a0df-4c78-963b-e5f215d3d550
RBAC policy on object 8828e38d-a0df-4c78-963b-e5f215d3d550

The target-project
parameter specifies the project that
requires access to the security group. The action
parameter
specifies what the project is allowed to do. The type
parameter says that the target object is a security group. The final
parameter is the ID of the security group we are granting access to.
Project 32016615de5d43bb88de99e7f2e26a1e
will now be
able to see the security group when running openstack security group list
and openstack security group show

it using the openstack network rbac delete
command:
$ openstack network rbac delete 8828e38d-a0df-4c78-963b-e5f215d3d550
If that project has ports with the security group applied to them, the server will not delete the RBAC policy until the security group is no longer in use:
$ openstack network rbac delete 8828e38d-a0df-4c78-963b-e5f215d3d550
RBAC policy on object 8828e38d-a0df-4c78-963b-e5f215d3d550
cannot be removed because other objects depend on it.
This process can be repeated any number of times to share a security-group with an arbitrary number of projects.
Creating an instance which uses a security group shared through RBAC, but only specifying the network ID when calling Nova will not work currently. In such cases Nova will check if the given security group exists in Neutron before it creates a port in the given network. The problem with that is that Nova asks only for the security groups filtered by the project_id thus it will not get the shared security group back from the Neutron API. See bug 1942615 for details. To workaround the issue, the user needs to create a port in Neutron first, and then pass that port to Nova:
$ openstack port create --network net1 --security-group
5ba835b7-22b0-4be6-bdbe-e0722d1b5f24 shared-sg-port
$ openstack server create --image cirros-0.5.1-x86_64-disk --flavor m1.tiny

How the 'shared' flag relates to these entries
As introduced in other guide entries, neutron provides a means of
making an object (address-scope
, network
,
qos-policy
, security-group
,
subnetpool
) available to every project. This is
accomplished using the shared
flag on the supported
object:
$ openstack network create global_network --share

This is the equivalent of creating a policy on the network that
permits every project to perform the action
access_as_shared
on that network. Neutron treats them as
the same thing, so the policy entry for that network should be visible
using the openstack network rbac list
command:
$ openstack network rbac list
+-------------------------------+-------------+--------------------------------+
| ID | Object Type | Object ID |
+-------------------------------+-------------+--------------------------------+
| 58a5ee31-2ad6-467d- | qos_policy | 1f730d69-1c45-4ade- |

+-------------------------------+-------------+--------------------------------+
Use the openstack network rbac show
command to see the
details:
$ openstack network rbac show 27efbd79-f384-4d89-9dfc-6c4a606ceec6

The output shows that the entry allows the action
access_as_shared
on object
84a7e627-573b-49da-af66-c9a65244f3ce
of type
network
to target_project *
, which is a
wildcard that represents all projects.
Currently, the shared
flag is just a mapping to the
underlying RBAC policies for a network. Setting the flag to
True
on a network creates a wildcard RBAC entry. Setting it
to False
removes the wildcard entry.
When you run openstack network list
or openstack network show
,
the shared
flag is calculated by the server based on the
calling project and the RBAC entries for each network. For QoS objects
use openstack network qos policy list
or openstack network qos policy show
respectively. If
there is a wildcard entry, the shared
flag is always set to
True
. If there are only entries that share with specific
projects, only the projects the object is shared to will see the flag as
True
and the rest will see the flag as

Allowing a network to be used as an external network
To make a network available as an external network for specific
projects rather than all projects, use the
access_as_external
action.
Create a network that you want to be available as an external network:
$ openstack network create secret_external_network +---------------------------+--------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +---------------------------+--------------------------------------+ | admin_state_up | UP | | availability_zone_hints | | | availability_zones | | | created_at | 2017-01-25T20:36:59Z | | description | | | dns_domain | None | | id | 802d4e9e-4649-43e6-9ee2-8d052a880cfb | | ipv4_address_scope | None | | ipv6_address_scope | None | | is_default | None | | mtu | 1450 | | name | secret_external_network | | port_security_enabled | True | | project_id | 61b7eba037fd41f29cfba757c010faff | | proider:network_type | vxlan | | provider:physical_network | None | | provider:segmentation_id | 21 | | qos_policy_id | None | | revision_number | 3 | | router:external | Internal | | segments | None | | shared | False | | status | ACTIVE | | subnets | | | tags | [] | | updated_at | 2017-01-25T20:36:59Z | +---------------------------+--------------------------------------+
Create a policy entry using the
openstack network rbac create
command (in this example, the ID of the project we want to share with is838030a7bf3c4d04b4b054c0f0b2b17c
):$ openstack network rbac create --target-project \ 838030a7bf3c4d04b4b054c0f0b2b17c --action access_as_external \ --type network 802d4e9e-4649-43e6-9ee2-8d052a880cfb +-------------------+--------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +-------------------+--------------------------------------+ | action | access_as_external | | id | afdd5b8d-b6f5-4a15-9817-5231434057be | | name | None | | object_id | 802d4e9e-4649-43e6-9ee2-8d052a880cfb | | object_type | network | | project_id | 61b7eba037fd41f29cfba757c010faff | | target_project_id | 838030a7bf3c4d04b4b054c0f0b2b17c | +-------------------+--------------------------------------+
The target-project
parameter specifies the project that
requires access to the network. The action
parameter
specifies what the project is allowed to do. The type
parameter indicates that the target object is a network. The final
parameter is the ID of the network we are granting external access
to.
Now project 838030a7bf3c4d04b4b054c0f0b2b17c
is able to
see the network when running openstack network list
and openstack network show
and can attach router gateway ports to that network. No other users
(other than admins and the owner) are able to see the network.
To remove access for that project, delete the policy that allows it
using the openstack network rbac delete
command:
$ openstack network rbac delete afdd5b8d-b6f5-4a15-9817-5231434057be
If that project has router gateway ports attached to that network, the server prevents the policy from being deleted until the ports have been deleted:
$ openstack network rbac delete afdd5b8d-b6f5-4a15-9817-5231434057be
RBAC policy on object afdd5b8d-b6f5-4a15-9817-5231434057be
cannot be removed because other objects depend on it.
This process can be repeated any number of times to make a network available as external to an arbitrary number of projects.
If a network is marked as external during creation, it now implicitly creates a wildcard RBAC policy granting everyone access to preserve previous behavior before this feature was added.
$ openstack network create global_external_network --external

In the output above the standard router:external
attribute is External
as expected. Now a wildcard policy is
visible in the RBAC policy listings:
$ openstack network rbac list --long -c ID -c Action
+--------------------------------------+--------------------+
| ID | Action |
+--------------------------------------+--------------------+
| b694e541-bdca-480d-94ec-eda59ab7d71a | access_as_external |
+--------------------------------------+--------------------+
You can modify or delete this policy with the same constraints as any
other RBAC access_as_external
policy.
Preventing regular users from sharing objects with each other
The default policy.yaml
file will not allow regular
users to share objects with every other project using a wildcard;
however, it will allow them to share objects with specific project
IDs.
If an operator wants to prevent normal users from doing this, the
"create_rbac_policy":
entry in policy.yaml
can
be adjusted from ""
to "rule:admin_only"
.
Improve database RBAC query operations
Since1, present in Yoga version, Neutron has indexes for "target_tenant" (now "target_project") and "action" columns in all RBAC related tables. That improves the SQL queries involving the RBAC tables2. Any system before Yoga won't have these indexes but the system administrator can manually add them to the Neutron database following the next steps:
- Find the RBAC tables:
$ tables=`mysql -e "use ovs_neutron; show tables;" | grep rbac`
Insert the indexes for the "target_tenant" and "action" columns:
$ for table in $tables do; mysql -e "alter table $table add key (action); alter table $table add key (target_tenant);"; done
In order to prevent errors during a system upgrade,3 was implemented and backported up to Yoga. This patch checks if any index is already present in the Neutron tables and avoids executing the index creation command again.
