CHANGE LOG FOR PEGASUS

Version 1.1.1 - 3 August 2001 - Development Branch (Work in Progress)

current working dev branch of build

1. (Karl) 6 Aug - extend ToMof functions. The MOF for a class can now be

seen as part of CGIclient class displays.

2. (Karl) 7 Aug - Update CIM25 Schema from the "preliminary" version

to the final version in Schemas\CIM25. This included minor

corrections, etc and a couple of file changes. This is the

official final CIM 25 schema relesed by the DMTF. This change

should not affect any current work.

3. (Karl) 7 Aug 2001 - Added CIM Schema 2.6 (preliminary) to the Schemas

directorys. Note however that today the make repository still

loads the 2.5 schema.

4. (Karl) 8 Aug 2001 - Change cimmofparser.cpp to put header and trailers

on XML output.

5. (Denise Eckstein - HP) 13 Aug 2001 - Fixed an HP-UX compile problem

in various src/utils/mu commands (MoveCmd.cpp, PrependCmd.cpp, RmCmd.cpp,

RmDirHierCmd.cpp, StripCmd.cpp, TouchCmd.cpp). aCC scopes variable

declarations in for loop initializers outside the loop, so multiple

"for (int i=0; i<10; i++);" statements cause a compile error.

6. (Nag Boranna - HP) 15 Aug 2001 - Modified Config framework to remove

dependency on the config files at the start of the cimserver. Now the

cimserver will use in-memory default values in the absence of config files

and command line options. Fixed a few defects in the config framework that

were causing cimom to crash under certain conditions. Changed the config

provider class name to 'PG_ConfigSetting' in the mof file and modified

provider implementation files accordingly. Also modified the config CLI

to show user friendly error/status messages.

7. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 16 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug in wbemexec CLI

(reported incorrect line number on error in XML request if input redirected).

Enhanced the -d debug command line option to allow more flexibility in

generating debug output.

8. Karl 17 Aug 2001) - Extended CIMMOF compiler to put pegasus comment line in

xml when it generates xml output.

9. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Aug 2001 - Combine instances of each class into

a common file to reduce the number of files required by the default

repository implementation.

10. (Mike Brasher) - Fixed minor bug in repository implementation.

11. (Mike Brasher) - Committed fix to missing PARAMETER.REFERENCE XML element.

12. (Mike Brasher) - Committed rework of server into queue approach.

13. (Mike Brasher) - New webserver and webclient examples.

14. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 21 Aug 2001 - Fixed a bug that was creating an empty file when trace was not enabled. Changed the Tracer test program's executable file name to TracerTest instead of Tracer.

15. (Mike Brasher) - Initial work on refactorying client into modules.

CIMOperationRequestEncoder and partial CIMOperationResponseDecoder.

16. (Mike Brasher) - queue-based clients now complete.

17. (Jim Chou - HP) 12 Sep 2001 - Initial contribution of wbemexec test directory and make infrastructure. This submittal also includes an initial set of test scripts.

18. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 13 Sep 2001 - Initial support for z/OS on z/Series, the successor of OS/390 and MVS.

19. (Warren Otsuka - HP) 14 Sep 2001 - Implementation of servlet web server

interface to CIMServer.This is for the PEGASUS CIM Server to coexist with

a web server. See doc/Servlet for more information.

20. (Yi Zhou - HP) 20 Sep 2001 - Added tracing in files

CIMOperationRequestDecoder.cpp and CIMOperationResponseEncoder.cpp so XML

input and output can be written in a trace file.

21. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 25 Sep 2001 - Initial Signal Handler support

Created new class SignalHandler that allow registration, activation and

deactivation of signal handler functions (Linux only !).

22. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Modification of ExportServer and

ExportClient to support ExportIndication. DisplayConsumer, a sample

consumer is added which will consume (by displaying on screen) the

indication exported by CIMExportRequestDispatcher. This complete

implementation is based on CIM_EXPORT_INDICATION_REQUEST and

RESPONSE messages. CIMMessage.h, Message.cpp and Message.h files

are modified to implement above messages.

XmlIndicationDispatcher test program is modified to test complete

operation. It now creates a consumer, handler and indication

instance and then calls CIMExportRequestDispatcher to export the

indication to consumer. This program needs

src/Pegasus/Server/tests/XmlIndicationDispatcher/TestSoftwarePkg.mof

and Schemas/Pegasus/PG_ConsumerRegistration.mof files to be loaded

in the repository to complete the test successfully. This test

program also needs Handler qualifier defined in repository and

modify CIM_Event25.mof for CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP class as

below:

//====================================================================

// CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP

//====================================================================

[Description (

"CIM_IndicationHandlerXMLHTTP describes the destination for "

"Indications to be delivered via HTTP, using a cimXML "

"representation."), Handler ("CIMxmlIndicationHandler") ]

23. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 27 Sep 2001 - Added tracing code in

ProviderTable.cpp and SystemUnix.cpp to indicate progress of loading

a provider library.

24. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - implementation of InvokeMethod

interface for the provider. InvokeMethod currently uses CIMValue as

type for inParameters and outParameters, which are unable to give

information about param name, type and value. This should be changed

to CIMParamValue which will help providers to know details of the

parameter name and type along with value passed through InvoleMethod

call. Current implementation uses CIMParamValue as parameters while

travelling through message queues and converts it back to array of

CIMValue before calling Provider API (which needs to be changed

later).

Also added are two test programs:

src/Pegasus/Common/tests/ParamValue - which demonstrate use of

CIMParamValue class.

src/Pegasus/Client/tests/InvokeMethod - which makes call to

InvokeMethod and displays the return value. Current

implementation assumes that provider had returned true value

and outParameters (which are now hard coded in

CIMOperationRequestDispatcher to implement functionality)

which are passed as response of InvokeMethod to client.

25. (Nag Boranna - HP) 05 Oct 2001 - Added first level implementation of

authentication to the pegasus code. Created an Authentication Manager

and authenticator interfaces. The file based local authentication

module has been modified to implement the local authenticator

interface, to generate the challenge for the unauthorized requests

and to verify the authentication.

A skeleton program has been created for the Basic Authenticator.

This code is in the Security/Authentication directory which is not

yet linked into the build.

26. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 08 Oct 2001 - Changes to Operation and Export

Decoders. Earlier decoders were sending requests and responses

before finishing complete Xml parse. This was prone to send

request/response even the Xml is wrong after the MethodCall.

New changes collects the Message* as return value from the

appropriate functions while parsing the Xml and sends on

_outputQueue only when Xml is parsed successfully.

27. (Nag Boranna - HP) 11 Oct 2001 - Modified ProviderModule.cpp to

fix the problem with constructing provider name and loading the

providers for unix platforms. Also moved the shared library name

construction (appending .sl or .so) from

CIMOperationRequestDispatcher.cpp/SystemUnix.cpp to

ProviderModule.cpp and included it in a method that returns

provider file path name.

28. (Nitin Upasani - HP) 12 Oct 2001 - Implementation of SNMP Indication

Handler. This handler extracts MappingStrings qualifier from class

definition and converts it into SNMP specific trap data. The trap

structure is defined in a abstract class in snmpDeliverTrap.h file.

Every one has his or her own SNMP agent, which will talk with master

agent to deliver the trap or may have some other mechanism.

Extending snmpDeliverTrap class and deliverTrap method will help to

implement specific trap delivery mechanism.

29. (Yi Zhou - HP) 09 Oct 2001 - Changed cimconfig to allow setting property to

be NULL. Also, if -u -p specified in the cimconfig, instead of updating

property value to be default in the plan file, remove the property from the

plan file. Converted ConfigSettingProvider to use provider2 library.

30. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 24 Oct 2001 - Added an interface to the tracer

to allow tracing of a specific number of bytes in a given

string. Also modified the XmlIO trace code to use the new interface.

Changed the config file defaults for tracing.

31. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 28 Oct 2001 - Added "make" support for Compaq

NonStop platform (NSK) in directory pegasus/mak. The following files

were added: platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak, objects-nsk.mak,

library-nsk.mak, config-nsk.mak, program-nsk.mak, program-windows.mak,

program-unix.mak. The original program.mak which previously covered

all platforms was split into platform-specific make files, and now

only contains conditionals. Files config.mak, objects.mak, and

library.mak were changed to include the NSK files.

File platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.mak includes config-nsk.mak.

32. (Jenny Yu - HP) 29 Oct 2001 - Fixed CIMReference constructor to allow

commas (,) in the string values of key properties.

33. (Karl Schopmeyer) 30 October 2001- Move the repository load to CIM schema 2.6

34. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 30 Oct 2001 - Fixed a problem in

pegasus/mak/program-windows.mak that prevented program builds for

the windows platform (related to change from 28 Oct). Replaced

leading whitespace in front of commands with tabs as required

in make files.

35. (K Schopmeyer) 2 Nov 2001 - Temporarily moved repository back to CIM25

because getting an error in 26

35. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 30 Oct 2001 - Association classes have keys

whose types are references. These reference values must be

treated specially in the XML encoding, using the VALUE.REFERENCE

tag structure.

Pegasus had been passing reference values simply as String values.

For example, EnumerateInstanceNames returned KEYVALUEs of string

type rather than VALUE.REFERENCEs.

I've modified the XmlReader::getKeyBindingElement() and

CIMReference::instanceNameToXml() methods to read and write the

XML in the proper format. However, making that change required

that a CIMReference object be able to distinguish between a key

of String type and a key of reference type.

I've modified the String format of CIMReferences slightly to

allow efficient processing of references whose keys are also of

reference type. The "official" form uses the same encoding for

key values of String type and of reference type, and so it

would be necessary to retrieve the class definition and look up

the types of the key properties to determine how to treat the

key values. This is clearly too inefficient for internal

transformations between CIMReferences and String values.

The workaround is to encode a 'R' at the beginning of the value

for a key of reference type (before the opening '"'). This allows

the parser to know a priori whether the key is of String or

reference type.

In this example:

MyClass.Key1="StringValue",Key2=R"RefClass.KeyA="StringA",KeyB=10"

Property Key1 of class MyClass is of String type, and so it gets

the usual encoding. Key2 is a reference property, so the extra 'R'

is inserted before its encoded value. Note that this algorithm is

recursive, such that RefClass could include KeyC of reference type,

which would also get encoded with the 'R' notation.

The toString() method inserts the 'R' to provide symmetry. A new

KeyBinding type (REFERENCE) has been defined to denote keys in a

CIMReference that are of reference type. This KeyBinding type must

be used appropriately for CIMReference::ttoString() to behave

correctly.

The files that have been modified to make this change are

CIMReference.h, CIMReference.cpp, and CIMInstanceRep.cpp.

A result of this change is that instances names in the instance

repository will include this extra 'R' character. Thus, you will

need to repopulate your repository when you download the latest

CIMOM version.

Note that for user-facing uses of the String encoding of instance

names (such as might appear in MOF for static association

instances or in the CGI client), this solution is non-standard and

therefore unacceptable. It is likely that these points will need

to process the more expensive operation of retrieving the class

definition to determine the key property types.

36. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) Modified tracer to return invalid components

in case of error in setting trace components. Modified the property owner

init and update methods. Submitted the pegasus/mak/Buildmakefile with

cleanbuild, rebuild and trace configuration options.

37. (Yi Zhou - HP) 05 Nov 2001 - Fixed createInstance to return a CIMReference

(instanceName).

38. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 08 Nov 2001 - Implemented encoding/decoding of

GetProperty/SetProperty/EnumerateInstances request/response messages.

Added encoding and decoding of PropertyList parameters on all

relevant intrinsic methods.

39. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 09 Nov 2001 - Added Associator calls to CIMBase

ProviderFacade.cpp; fixed Provider unloading in CIMProviderManager.cpp

40. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 12 Nov 2001 - Common module: added the following

files for nsk platform support: TraceFileHandlerNsk.cpp, ThreadNsk.cpp,

TCPChannelNsk.cpp, SystemNsk.cpp, ServiceNsk.cpp, SelectorNsk.cpp,

IPCNsk.cpp, DirNsk.cpp. Most of these files (with the exception of

SystemNsk.cpp) contain stubs. The associated control files

(TraceFileHandler.cpp, Thread.cpp, etc) have been updated to include

nsk platform links.

41. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 14 Nov 2001 - Changed the behavior of the CIMValue

toString() method for CIMValues of String type. The old behavior

returned an XML encoding of the String with special characters

replaced by their UTF-8 equivalents. For example, a CIMValue of a"b

would be returned as a"b. The new behavior just returns the

String value directly with no translation. (Note that

CIMValue.toXml() may still be used to get the XML-encoded value.)

This change was necessary in part to correct the behavior of the

repository. CreateInstance stores the instance name returned by

CIMInstance.getInstanceName(), which is built using calls to

CIMValue.toString(). GetInstance searches for the instance name

without UTF-8 encoding of special characters. For GetInstance to

be successful, CreateInstance must have stored the instance name

in that same form, without special character encoding.

42. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 15 Nov 2001 - Added a toXml(void) method to

the CIMValue class. Eliminated improper use of CIMValue.toString(),

often replacing with CIMValue.get(String&) or CIMValue.toXml().

Also added some error handling in the indication handlers.

43. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 16 Nov 2001 - Added a function

localObjectPathtoXml(Array<Sint8>& out) to the CIMReference class

to handle local instance path and local classpath. Modified the

CIMOperationRequestDecoder to handle <LOCALCLASSPATHELEMENT ...>.

Changed the CIMOperationRequestEncoder to call the localObjectPathtoXml.

44. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added a CIMNamedInstance class

to hold the argument to ModifyInstance and the return values

from EnumerateInstances. The client and provider APIs need to

be updated to use this class.

45. (Sushma Fernandes - HP) 19 Nov 2001 - Added the cimuser command line

source files. This CLI allows addition, modification, removal and listing

of CIM users. The CLI is not linked to the main makefile as the Provider

functionality is yet to be implemented. Added the function

String getPassword(char* prompt) to the System.h and cpp files.

46. (Nag Boranna - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Implemented Authentication code on

the server to challenge the unauthorized requests, authenticate

the challenge responses, and verify the subsequent authorized requests.

Implemented authentication mechanism on the Client api to send

responses to the challenges from the server. Current implementation

supports only 'local' authentication mechanism.

47. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 20 Nov 2001 - Commited the following set of changes:

- Changed the return value of EnumerateInstances from Array<CIMInstance>

to Array<CIMNamedInstance>

- Changed the parameter to ModifyInstance from CIMInstance to

CIMNamedInstance

- Added an optional PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance

- Changed all handling of PropertyList parameters to use the

CIMPropertyList class instead of Array<String>

Each of these changes was required to comply with the DMTF specification.

These changes were made throughout the system except for in the provider

API. For now, the CIMProviderHandle and CIMBaseProviderHandle hide the

differences from providers, so older providers will continue to function.

However, this means that clients can not yet take advantage of the added

functionality.

When the provider API is updated, the following changes will be visible:

- Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which

they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the

PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the

list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by

issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of

properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace

the entire instance.

- Providers will be required to return instance names along with

instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive

these instance names, as the standard dictates.

- Providers will receive a CIMPropertyList argument containing the

PropertyList instead of an Array<String>. This change allows

providers to distinguish between an empty list and a null list.

Note that the repository also does not yet handle the PropertyList in

ModifyInstance correctly.

48. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 21 Nov 2001 - I have updated the Provider2 instance

provider API to match the changes made to the EnumerateInstances and

ModifyInstance operations. These changes were made to comply with

the DMTF specification.

The original Provider API has not been updated, and I have no

plans to do so. Providers written to the original API will

continue to function, but they will not have the opportunity

to take advantage of the features that have been added.

The significant changes to the Provider2 API are:

- Providers will get a PropertyList parameter to ModifyInstance which

they are required to respect. Providers that can not process the

PropertyList must throw a NOT_SUPPORTED exception whenever the

list is not null. Clients can take advantage of this change by

issuing a ModifyInstance request against a selected set of

properties in an instance, rather than being required to replace

the entire instance.

- Providers will get an IncludeQualifiers parameter to ModifyInstance

which they are required to respect. If IncludeQualifiers is

false, the qualifiers on the modified instance provided must not

be used to update the instance.

- Providers will be required to return instance names along with

instances in the EnumerateInstances method. Clients will receive

these instance names, as the standard dictates.

The providers that are in the Pegasus build have all been updated.

However, whenever the PropertyList is not null, the providers throw

a NOT_SUPPORTED exception.

49. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 25 NOV 2001 - To support the NSK platform,

files Platform_NSK_NONSTOP_NMCPLUS.h and ConfigNsk.h were added to

the Common module. File Config.h was modified to include the NSK

platform and a new option PEGASUS_HAVE_NO_STD that allows compilation

without the standard (std) namespace.

50. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added two new configuration

properties to support alternate behavior of the Pegasus repository:

repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider and repositoryProviderName.

Using the first one, the repository can be enabled/disabled as the

default provider for instance (and association) operations. The default

setting is "true", so the default behavior has not been changed. To

disable the repository as the default instance provider, issue the

following command before starting cimserver:

cimconfig -s repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider=false -p

The repositoryProviderName configuration property specifies what

provider name is used to explicitly register the repository as a

provider. This is necessary when the repository needs to serve

instances of a class and repositoryIsDefaultInstanceProvider is set

to "false". The default value is "repository". To register the

repository as an instance provider for a class, add a

'Provider("repository")' qualifier to the class definition.

51. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 26 Nov 2001 - Added a new ServiceCIMOMHandle to

pass to providers that act as services. This handle provides

service providers with access to the CIMServer data structures.

52. (Roger Kumpf - HP) 28 Nov 2001 - Implemented ModifyInstance in

the repository so that it respects the IncludeQualifiers and

PropertyList parameters. Updated SetProperty in the repository

so that it uses ModifyInstance correctly. The repository now

supports GetProperty and SetProperty in addition to ModifyInstance.

Implemented GetProperty and SetProperty in the Dispatcher and

Provider2 so that they get translated to GetInstance and

ModifyInstance calls (respectively) in the provider. Providers

written to the Provider2 API that correctly process the new

ModifyInstance parameters will automatically support SetProperty

operations. Note that GetProperty and SetProperty currently only

work for String properties because of an XML encoding limitation.

53. (Nag Boranna - HP, Sushma Fernandes - HP) 30 Nov 2001 - Implemented the

Security components for authentication and authorization.

Authentication and User Management:

cimuser CLI : This CLI is used for addition, modification, removal

and listing of CIM Users. The CIM user password is encrypted and stored

in a file. The password file format is compatible with Apache's htpasswd

generated password file.

cimauth CLI implement the authorization managment functionality by letting

to add/remove/list user authorizations.

User Manager and User Manager Provider components implement the user

management and authorization functionality.

54. (Mike Brasher - BMC) 3 Dec 2001 - Added support for WQL-1. New directory

under src/Pegasus/WQL which contains library and BNF.

55. (Yi Zhou - HP) 03 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus registration provider

which does provider registration, block, unblock, and stop a provider.

It also alert Subscription Service of any provider registration changes.

56. (Rudy Schuet - Compaq) 04 Dec 2001 - Replaced _min macro in String.h

and String.cpp with PEG_min. The _min macro caused problems on the

NSK platform because of a duplicate definition in a standard file.

57. (Carol Ann Krug Graves - HP) 04 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus indication

subscription service provider that serves as the instance provider for the

CIM_IndicationSubscription, CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_IndicationHandler

classes (from CIM_Events27.mof). The service also takes appropriate action

in response to startup, shutdown of the cimom, termination of a provider,

or change in provider registration.

58. (Jenny Yu - HP) 05 Dec 2001 - Implemented Pegasus Shutdown Service

and the command line interface for shutting down cimom gracefully.

For more information, refer to the CIMOM Shutdown working paper

in pegasus/doc/WorkPapers/CIMOMShutdown.pdf.

59. (Markus Mueller - IBM) 06 Dec 2001 - Implemented SSL support (Linux only).

It consists the new classes SSL_Context, SSLSocket and MP_Socket defined

in TLS.h. HTTPAcceptor and HTTPConnector are extended with an additional

constructor to set a pointer to the server-, resp. client wide SSL_Context

structure. The Socket field in HTTPConnection is substituted with an

MP_Socket pointer, a class that is designed to hide the differences

between Socket and SSLSocket. The MP_Socket (multipurpose socket) class

is defined even in a non-ssl environment.

How to use it in a Server or Client:

1. Just create an SSL_Context once per Server/Client address space

2. Construct every HTTPConnector/Acceptor with a pointer to this

SSL_Context if you want to enable SSL; construct Connectors/Acceptors

without SSL_Context for conventional connections.

The Configuration data was extended with the boolean SSL property, and

cimserver and TestClient now understand the -SSL, resp. -ssl flag.

60. (Bapu Patil - HP) Updated makefiles to support HP-UX IA64 bits O.S.
