Make routes start matching Redfish This is preliminary patch to set up the route handling such that it's ready for the addition of multiple hosts, multiple managers in the future. Routes previously took the form of /redfish/v1/Systems/system which essentially hardcoded the name "system" into a number of places. As the stack evolves to support multiple systems, this needs to change. This patchset changes all the ComputerSystem resources to the form: /redfish/v1/Systems/<str> and adds 404 checks to each route such that they will be handled properly still. This means that as we evolve our multi-host support, each individual route can be moved one at a time to support multi-host. In the future, moving these to redfish-spec-defined routing would likely mean that we could generate this code in the future at some point, which reduces the likelihood that people do it incorrectly. This patch currently sets the resource id and resource type in the resourceNotFound message to empty string (""). This handling is still arguably more correct than what we had before, which just returned 404 with an empty payload, although this will be corrected in the future. Tested: None yet. RFC to see if this is a pattern we'd like to propogate Signed-off-by: Ed Tanous <edtanous@google.com> Change-Id: If9c07ad69f5287bb054645f460d7e370d433dc27
This component attempts to be a "do everything" embedded webserver for OpenBMC.
The webserver implements a few distinct interfaces:
bmcweb at a protocol level supports http and https. TLS is supported through OpenSSL.
Bmcweb supports multiple authentication protocols:
Each of these types of authentication is able to be enabled or disabled both via runtime policy changes (through the relevant Redfish APIs) or via configure time options. All authentication mechanisms supporting username/password are routed to libpam, to allow for customization in authentication implementations.
All authorization in bmcweb is determined at routing time, and per route, and conform to the Redfish PrivilegeRegistry.
*Note: Non-Redfish functions are mapped to the closest equivalent Redfish privilege level.
bmcweb is configured per the meson build files. Available options are documented in meson_options.txt
meson builddir ninja -C builddir
If any of the dependencies are not found on the host system during configuration, meson will automatically download them via its wrap dependencies mentioned in bmcweb/subprojects
.
bmcweb by default is compiled with runtime logging disabled, as a performance consideration. To enable it in a standalone build, add the
-Dlogging='enabled'
option to your configure flags. If building within Yocto, add the following to your local.conf.
EXTRA_OEMESON:pn-bmcweb:append = "-Dbmcweb-logging='enabled'"
bmcweb relies on some on-system data for storage of persistent data that is internal to the process. Details on the exact data stored and when it is read/written can seen from the persistent_data namespace.
When SSL support is enabled and a usable certificate is not found, bmcweb will generate a self-signed a certificate before launching the server. Please see the bmcweb source code for details on the parameters this certificate is built with.
