Create Redfish specific setProperty call There are currently 78 sdbusplus::asio::setProperty calls in redfish-core. The error handler for nearly all of them looks something like: ``` if (ec) { const sd_bus_error* dbusError = msg.get_error(); if ((dbusError != nullptr) && (dbusError->name == std::string_view( "xyz.openbmc_project.Common.Error.InvalidArgument"))) { BMCWEB_LOG_WARNING("DBUS response error: {}", ec); messages::propertyValueIncorrect(asyncResp->res, "<PropertyName>", <PropertyValue>); return; } messages::internalError(asyncResp->res); return; } messages::success(asyncResp->res); ``` In some cases there are more errors handled that translate to more error messages, but the vast majority only handle InvalidArgument. Many of these, like the ones in account_service.hpp, do the error handling in a lambda, which causes readability problems. This commit starts to make things more consistent, and easier for trivial property sets. This commit invents a setDbusProperty method in the redfish namespace that tries to handle all DBus errors in a consistent manner. Looking for input on whether this will work before changing over the other 73 calls. Overall this is less code, fewer inline lambdas, and defaults that should work for MOST use cases of calling an OpenBMC daemon, and fall back to more generic errors when calling a "normal" dbus daemon. As part of this, I've ported over several examples. Some things that might be up in the air: 1. Do we always return 204 no_content on property sets? Today there's a mix of 200, with a Base::Success message, and 204, with an empty body. 2. Do all DBus response codes map to the same error? A majority are covered by xyz.openbmc_project.Common.Error.InvalidArgument, but there are likely differences. If we allow any daemon to return any return code, does that cause compatibility problems later? Tested: ``` curl -k --user "root:0penBmc" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PATCH -d '{"HostName":"openbmc@#"}' https://192.168.7.2/redfish/v1/Managers/bmc/EthernetInterfaces/eth0 ``` Returns the appropriate error in the response Base.1.16.0.PropertyValueIncorrect Change-Id: If033a1112ba516792c9386c997d090c8f9094f3a Signed-off-by: Ed Tanous <ed@tanous.net>
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.
