#openstack-nova - 2024-10-16
13:31:23 tkajinam anyway this is rather a global issue and so far the "values" naming should help identifying the expected type
13:31:24 tkajinam yeah
13:34:30 tkajinam rpittau, I think that works. some of the people may be busy on Monday and Wednesday for tc discussion or cross project discussions but may be flexible on Tuesday or Thursday
13:34:47 tkajinam rpittau, though I'd defer the decision to bauzas
13:35:15 rpittau thanks, I chose thursday as for ironic is the less busy day

13:44:04 gibi tkajinam: fixed your comment :) ^^
13:46:54 tkajinam gibi, thanks !
13:56:35 bauzas rpittau: fair enough, we can do this at Thursday 13OOUTC
13:57:07 bauzas rpittau: adding it now in https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-2025.1-ptg
13:57:12 rpittau bauzas: thanks, I'll update our schedule!
13:57:16 bauzas in our room or yours ?
13:57:35 rpittau we don;t have one booked at that time, maybe better yours
13:58:08 bauzas okay so please join the austin room :)
13:58:33 rpittau we will, thanks :)
13:58:45 bauzas rpittau: added it in https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-2025.1-ptg#L69
14:00:06 rpittau perfect, I've added it at https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/ironic-ptg-october-2024#L10
14:15:03 admiyo to Nova. https://adam.younglogic.com/2017/05/fixing-bug-96869/
14:15:03 admiyo sean-k-mooney, I see that you closed bug 698696 as won;t fix: https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+bug/968696 I think that is a mistake. All role assignments are scoped. I had a proposal a few years back that addresses your concerns. Basically, for "global" actions that nova has scoped to a proejcct (due to history) you confirm that the project on the token is an "administrative" project. It requires minimal changes
14:19:30 sean-k-mooney admiyo: there is no such thing as a project scoped admin
14:20:05 sean-k-mooney admiyo: there is a governance document to descibe how roels shoudl work consitnatnly across all of openstack
14:20:26 admiyo sean-k-mooney, as of when? When Openstack started, that was all there was. It was a bug in the initial design, before Keystone was a project/
14:20:30 sean-k-mooney the admin role is not scoped to a project based on the desgin agreed in yoga
14:20:58 admiyo And the reason why it has stuck around is that Nova scoped APIs to projects that needed the Aadmin role. It can't be fixed in openstack without being fixed in Nova
14:21:06 admiyo What I wrote up was the "hard" way
14:21:16 admiyo the even harder way was to fix all of the APIs in Nova
14:21:22 sean-k-mooney amorin: have you read https://governance.openstack.org/tc/goals/selected/consistent-and-secure-rbac.html
14:21:34 sean-k-mooney amorin: you cant have a proejct scoped admin role in any project
14:21:37 sean-k-mooney its not just nova
14:21:57 admiyo We just killed the Admin role?
14:22:05 sean-k-mooney no
14:22:53 sean-k-mooney the admin role is defiend as a role that allows the bearer to performe admin operations on any service agaisnt any project
14:23:10 sean-k-mooney which is what it has alwasys ment
14:23:15 admiyo "we decided to postpone the scope implementation"
14:23:23 admiyo Heh....scope existed from the get go
14:23:36 sean-k-mooney not in anything other then keystone
14:23:52 sean-k-mooney we not only persponed it we removed it form almost every project that impmented it
14:24:18 admiyo Keystone split off from Nova. It was originally implemented there. The bug is Nova's original sin
14:24:34 sean-k-mooney admiyo: to be clear i was not makeign the deciosn to close it form a nova point of view
14:24:56 admiyo And the problem was that there WERE nova apis that required admin scoped to the project
14:24:57 sean-k-mooney as a comuntiy a collect dission was made not to go in that direction
14:25:10 admiyo so you HAD to split it up somehow. So you can fix it, and maybe it is fixed now
14:25:53 sean-k-mooney admiyo: have you read https://governance.openstack.org/tc/goals/selected/consistent-and-secure-rbac.html or partipated in any of the discussion that have been taking place for the last 5 years on this topic
14:26:18 admiyo I got so burnt out by chasing this that I had to step away from Keystone.
14:26:36 admiyo And I have popped in periodically. The bug was still assigned to me for a while.
14:27:01 admiyo And I think it is ok to say that it is fixed if you cannot have a admin scoped project token
14:27:07 sean-k-mooney admiyo: when we explained to operator that they would not be able to do openstack service list --all-tenant with the proposed implemetion they said hell no
14:27:26 admiyo And there was a solution to that
14:27:45 admiyo That was why we had implied roles.
14:27:55 sean-k-mooney we still have implied roels
14:28:05 sean-k-mooney admin impiles member implies reader
14:28:12 admiyo I know. I wrote that implementation and I can see it has been maintained.
14:28:20 sean-k-mooney that does nto solve the problem when a servier is a proejct scoped resoucece
14:28:39 admiyo Yes it does....
14:29:29 sean-k-mooney well in 5 years noone has been able to expalin how to make it owrk in a way that people can accpet and implemtnet
14:29:38 admiyo You need the appropriate role, but implied roles work down the hierarchy, So if I have the correct role on the parent proejct (or domain) it works for all projects underneath it.
14:29:58 sean-k-mooney sure
14:30:16 sean-k-mooney but we dont supprot domain scoped tokens and you cant have nested projects
14:30:22 admiyo And you could even do it on a domain, but it looks like they have made it work bettern
14:30:51 sean-k-mooney even if we did use the domain scopet token to list all the project you shoudl have acceess too that still means you cant see things across multiple domains
14:31:14 admiyo It used to work.
14:31:29 admiyo I think we called it the default domain....
14:31:55 sean-k-mooney admiyo: i was just doing clean up of old bugs by the way
14:32:11 sean-k-mooney as far as i can tell what was being asked for in that bug is not compatible with the governance doc
14:32:33 sean-k-mooney admiyo: gmann: has been following srbac more closely then i
14:32:57 sean-k-mooney admiyo: but the only work i am aware of in this are is what descibe in that doc
14:33:06 admiyo It sounds like you have a fix in place. I think that is better to write up there than "won't fix." This was a deal breaker for giving people direct access to the API in a lot of cases, and lead to everyone putting APIs in front of OpenStack. I would love to see it closed properly.
14:33:10 opendevreview Merged openstack/placement master: Switch python version used for periodic jobs https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/932472
14:33:46 sean-k-mooney admiyo: i really dont get the issue with acess to the apis
14:33:58 sean-k-mooney there are verly few things that actully need admin in nova
14:34:11 admiyo And do those HAVE to be on project tokens?
14:34:44 sean-k-mooney specificly creating flavors, managing compute servcices/host aggreates or things like live migration
14:34:50 admiyo I'll explein the issue after, but I am more interested in the solution, sounds like you have one
14:35:04 sean-k-mooney admiyo: yes if you want to create a service via nova you need to use a project scoped token
14:35:09 admiyo Right, and the resources you list there are not scoped to projects anymore?
14:35:44 sean-k-mooney they were system scoped and now they are project scoped again
14:36:08 admiyo but why are the "admin" then if admin is global role?
14:36:42 sean-k-mooney becuase flavors/hostaggated compute service are not somethign a normal user shoudl be able to modify
14:36:58 sean-k-mooney they are admin because only admins of the openstack cloud should be able to interact with them
14:37:19 admiyo but should a project admin be able to change flavors that are specific to a different project?
14:37:35 sean-k-mooney no
14:38:05 sean-k-mooney you are misussing that term based on the current agreed usage
14:38:24 sean-k-mooney a a use with an admin role is a global admin
14:38:40 admiyo can I have a project specific flavor ?
14:39:04 sean-k-mooney technially yes private flavor are a thing and only admins can create them on behayce fo end users
14:39:15 sean-k-mooney a normal user of a public cloud should not be allowed ot od that with the member role
14:40:04 sean-k-mooney admiyo: a new role that is seperat eform the curent heriacy was proposed if to have project scoped elevated access
14:40:07 sean-k-mooney https://governance.openstack.org/tc/goals/selected/consistent-and-secure-rbac.html#implement-support-for-project-manager-personas
14:40:11 dansmith flavors are also a lot more involved than they were in 2010 and require knowledge of the backend to some degree to set up in a lot of real-world cases, like knowing what hardware is available and in what configuration
14:40:14 sean-k-mooney its called the project manager role
14:40:40 sean-k-mooney that is part of phase 3 and we are in the midel of pahse 2 right now
14:41:00 dansmith and as sean-k-mooney has been saying, I think this is not nova-specific and also pretty much a sailed ship at this point
14:41:17 admiyo So it looks like you DO have a plan in place to fix the bug. It should not be closed as won't-fix
