Make SSE pass Redfish protocol validator is failing SSE. This is due to a clause in the Redfish specification that requires a "json" error to be returned when the SSE URI is hit with a standard request. In what exists today, we return 4XX (method not allowed) but because this is handled by the HTTP layer, it's not possible to return the correct Redfish payloads for when that 4XX happens within the Redfish tree, because there is in fact a route that matches, that route just doesn't support the type that we need. This commit rearranges the router such that there are now 4 classes of rules. 1. "verb" rules. These are GET/POST/PATCH type, and they are stored using the existing PerMethod array index. 2. "upgrade" rules. These are for websocket or SSE routes that we expect to upgrade to another route 3. 404 routes. These are called in the case where no route exists with that given URI pattern, and no routes exist in the table for any verb. 4. 405 method not allowed. These are called in the case where routes exist in the tree for some method, but not for the method the user requested. To accomplish this, some minor refactors are implemented to separate out the 4xx handlers to be their own variables, rather than just existing at an index at the end of the verb table. This in turn means that getRouteByIndex now changes to allow getting the route by PerMethod instance, rather than index. Tested: unit tests pass (okish coverage) Redfish protocol validator passes (with the exception of #277, which fails identically before and after). SSE tests now pass. Redfish service validator passes. Change-Id: I555c50f392cb12ecbc39fbadbae6a3d50f4d1b23 Signed-off-by: Ed Tanous <etanous@nvidia.com>
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 setup 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 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.
bmcweb is capable of aggregating resources from satellite BMCs. Refer to AGGREGATION.md for more information on how to enable and use this feature.
