  1. Client Utility Tutorial Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  2. Kernel Applications Physical Resources e.g., CPU time slice, disk NT/Unix - “OS for Devices” Operating System Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  3. Core Kernel Kernel Kernel Applications Physical Resources e.g., CPU time slice, disk CUSP - “OS for the Internet” Services Information and Services Resources (sub-services) e.g., location, brokering, provisioning, monitoring, security, billing, management CUSP Operating System Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  5. Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  6. System Structure • Collection of Logical Machines • Logical Machine • Active entity - Core • Passive entity - Repository • Mailbox metaphor for requests to Core Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  7. Fundamentals • Every resource registered with Core • Tasks access resources by name • Core associates name with resource metadata • Each task has an outbox connected to the Core • Outgoing message has envelope and payload • Each task has zero or more inboxes • Incoming message has envelope and payload Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  8. A First Request App API Core Router Repository Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  9. Open a File • Construct outbox envelope and append payload • Name field - (/mydoc.txt) • Payload - (open rw /mydoc.txt) • Look up /mydoc.txt • Finds resource description in repository • Forwards to designated resource proxy Name: /mydoc.txt Payload: open rw /mydoc.txt Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  10. Problem How can a resource owner control access without needing to authenticate a large number of potential users? How can a task describe the access rights it wants to use for a particular request? Use keys to unlock permissions Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  11. Extracting Access Rights App API Core Permission Router Repository Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  12. Setting Up Permissions • Inserted by resource owner • Recorded with resource metadata in repository • (Lock,Permission) pair • Permission forwarded if lock opened Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  13. Request with Access Rights • Outbox envelope includes collection of keys • Key rings - (mykeys) • Name field - (/mydoc.txt) • Payload - (open rw /mydoc.txt) • Inbox envelope gets permissions • Name: /mydoc.txt • Permissions: read,write • Payload: open rw /mydoc.txt Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  14. Problem How can a task find its “stuff” no matter where it runs? Virtualize names All names are personal to task Core identifies actual resource being referenced Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  15. Name Virtualization App API Core Naming Permission Name Space Name Space Router Repository Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  16. Name Virtualization • Construct outbox envelope • Name field - (/boss_is_dumb) • Label - (/boss_is_smart) • Payload - (open rw /boss_is_smart) • Name manager looks up name in Name Space • Finds resource description in repository • Forwards to resource proxy Name: X928 Label: /boss_is_smart Permissions: read,write Payload: open rw /boss_is_smart Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  17. Problem How does the resource proxy know what resource is being accessed if there is no common name? The resource metadata has a field for resource specific data Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  18. Resource Identification • Construct outbox envelope • Name field - (/resume.txt) • Label - (/doc.txt) • Payload - (open rw /doc.txt) • Name manager looks up /resume.txt in repository • Forwards to resource proxy Name: G3965 Label: /doc.txt Resource data: /u/karp/report.txt,read,write Payload: open rw /doc.txt Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  19. Problem How can one task put a name into another task’s name space while avoiding accidental name conflicts? Give name spaces structure Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  20. Typical Name Space Structure InboxFrame MyDefaultFrame FrameB FrameA MyNameSpace=(MyDefaultFrame,InboxFrame,FrameA,FrameB) Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  21. Name Space Structure • Name space an ordered list of frames • Frames hold collections of name associations • Core looks for names in designated order • Unique frame for each mailbox • Delivery associates names in inbox frame • Receiver can rename or move entries • Name spaces and frames are resources Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  22. Problem How can two or more tasks share a set of names? Each has a name for the same frame Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  23. Sharing Names Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  24. Problem How can the core begin the name look-up procedure? Use default frame as anchor Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  25. Name Look-up Procedure • Outbox has associated frame • Look for default name space • Use mandatory key ring • Find name mapping for name space • Find name mapping for key rings • Step through frames looking for names Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  26. Problem How can an administrator know what’s going on? Record resource access requests Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  27. Structure of the CU Core Monitor Data Base App API Core Monitor Naming Permission Name Space Name Space Router Repository Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  28. Monitor • Monitor records all requests • Database is a resource like any other • Requests to database specify keys • Monitoring task has a different set of keys • Management task has keys to change repository entries Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  29. Problem How can a task add name bindings to its protection domain? Describe resource Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  30. Resource Look-up • Attribute-based look-up get {DOC=“CU Architecture”,VER=3.8}, bind to /cuarch.doc in frame CUArch • Search repository for matches • Use designated arbitration if many found • Error return if no matches Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  31. What can be done if no attribute grammar can describe a new kind of resource? Make grammar a resource that can be specified with the attributes Problem Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  32. Attribute Grammars • Define a new grammar and register it with Core • Built up out of Core supplied components • Data types: integer, string, etc. • Comparisons: equal, greater than, longer, etc. • Logic: AND, OR • Other: valid names, required, bounds • Name grammar in a resource description or as part of a look-up request Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  33. Attribute Grammar Grammar Toolkit ShoeSizeGrammar Size=int, > 6, <12 Width=char,From(A,B,C,D,E) Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  34. Grammar Matching Rules • Each grammar has matching rules for each field • Can match fields in other grammars • Service can translate between grammars Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  35. Problem How do machines share resources Connect with DRIP Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  36. Distributed Resource Interchange Protocol • Agree on a connection mode (TCP, IR) • Agree on a DRIP version • Mutually authenticate • Derive session key (optional) • Set up proxy for other machine • Exchange resource descriptions • Register in each Core repository with proxy as handler Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  37. Connecting Two Machines Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  38. Problem How does a task use a resource from another machine? The same way it uses any other resource Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  39. Using a Remote Resource Request Reply Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  40. Using a resource from another machine • Get a name association (transfer or look-up) • Specify name in outbox envelope • Core forwards to proxy as handler • Proxy forwards request over the wire • Proxy on owning side names resource in its outbox envelope • Its Core routes request to handler • Reply sent back along same path Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  41. Problem How can an application limit what it might find? How can the application speed up searches? Use views into the repository Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  42. Specifying a Look-Up My Stuff His Stuff Her Stuff Default Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  43. Repository Views • Any task can create a repository view • View for “MyStuff” • Proxy uses view for imported resources • Registered resources can be added • Name association for repository view can be given out • Look-up names an ordered list of repository views • Default view contains all resources Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  44. Must resource descriptions be pushed or can they be pulled? Repository view may specify an extended look-up handler Problem Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  45. HerHandler HisHandler Extending a Look-up My Stuff His Stuff Her Stuff Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  46. Extending a Look-up • Repository view specifies task to continue look-up • If look-up fails, requester gets a partial binding • Core asked to complete binding • Examples • Proxy can pull resource description across wire • File system may register files on demand • If successful, requester gets name association Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  47. Finding a Machine • What if extended look-up fails? • Need to find a machine • Do a discovery at an advertising service • Get back one or more connection objects • Initiate connection and import desired resources Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  48. Problem How can applications that need additional resources ensure that they are available? Resource description points to other resources to be bound to names Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  49. Inheriting Resources Resource Metadata Inheritance Field (Application’s name, Repository Handle) (/word97,53384) (/times8.fnt,593) (/times12.fnt,4937) (/times16.fnt, 332) s s s Hewlett-Packard Confidential

  50. How does a user login to the system? Attribute based look-up of a Protection Domain Problem Hewlett-Packard Confidential
