RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 1. Introduction This document specifies version 2 of the message protocol used in ONC Remote Procedure Call (RPC). The message protocol is specified with the eXternal Data Representation (XDR) language [RFC4506]. This document assumes that the reader is familiar with XDR. It does not attempt to justify remote procedure call systems or describe their use. The paper by Birrell and Nelson [XRPC] is recommended as an excellent background for the remote procedure call concept. 1.1. Requirements Language The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]. 2. Changes since RFC 1831 This document obsoletes [RFC1831] as the authoritative document describing RPC, without introducing any over-the-wire protocol changes. The main changes from RFC 1831 are: o Addition of an Appendix that describes how an implementor can request new RPC program numbers, authentication flavor numbers, and authentication status numbers from IANA, rather than from Sun Microsystems o Addition of an "IANA Considerations" section that describes past number assignment policy and how IANA is intended to assign them in the future o Clarification of the RPC Language Specification to match current usage o Enhancement of the "Security Considerations" section to reflect experience with strong security flavors o Specification of new authentication errors that are in common use in modern RPC implementations o Updates for the latest IETF intellectual property statements 3. Terminology This document discusses clients, calls, servers, replies, services, programs, procedures, and versions. Each remote procedure call has two sides: an active client side that makes the call to a server side, which sends back a reply. A network service is a collection of Thurlow Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 one or more remote programs. A remote program implements one or more remote procedures; the procedures, their parameters, and results are documented in the specific program's protocol specification. A server may support more than one version of a remote program in order to be compatible with changing protocols. For example, a network file service may be composed of two programs. One program may deal with high-level applications such as file system access control and locking. The other may deal with low-level file input and output and have procedures like "read" and "write". A client of the network file service would call the procedures associated with the two programs of the service on behalf of the client. The terms "client" and "server" only apply to a particular transaction; a particular hardware entity (host) or software entity (process or program) could operate in both roles at different times. For example, a program that supplies remote execution service could also be a client of a network file service. 4. The RPC Model The ONC RPC protocol is based on the remote procedure call model, which is similar to the local procedure call model. In the local case, the caller places arguments to a procedure in some well- specified location (such as a register window). It then transfers control to the procedure, and eventually regains control. At that point, the results of the procedure are extracted from the well- specified location, and the caller continues execution. The remote procedure call model is similar. One thread of control logically winds through two processes: the caller's process and a server's process. The caller first sends a call message to the server process and waits (blocks) for a reply message. The call message includes the procedure's parameters, and the reply message includes the procedure's results. Once the reply message is received, the results of the procedure are extracted, and the caller's execution is resumed. On the server side, a process is dormant awaiting the arrival of a call message. When one arrives, the server process extracts the procedure's parameters, computes the results, sends a reply message, and then awaits the next call message. In this model, only one of the two processes is active at any given time. However, this model is only given as an example. The ONC RPC protocol makes no restrictions on the concurrency model implemented, and others are possible. For example, an implementation may choose Thurlow Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 to have RPC calls be asynchronous so that the client may do useful work while waiting for the reply from the server. Another possibility is to have the server create a separate task to process an incoming call so that the original server can be free to receive other requests. There are a few important ways in which remote procedure calls differ from local procedure calls. o Error handling: failures of the remote server or network must be handled when using remote procedure calls. o Global variables and side effects: since the server does not have access to the client's address space, hidden arguments cannot be passed as global variables or returned as side effects. o Performance: remote procedures usually operate at one or more orders of magnitude slower than local procedure calls. o Authentication: since remote procedure calls can be transported over unsecured networks, authentication may be necessary. Authentication prevents one entity from masquerading as some other entity. The conclusion is that even though there are tools to automatically generate client and server libraries for a given service, protocols must still be designed carefully. 5. Transports and Semantics The RPC protocol can be implemented on several different transport protocols. The scope of the definition of the RPC protocol excludes how a message is passed from one process to another, and includes only the specification and interpretation of messages. However, the application may wish to obtain information about (and perhaps control over) the transport layer through an interface not specified in this document. For example, the transport protocol may impose a restriction on the maximum size of RPC messages, or it may be stream-oriented like TCP [RFC0793] with no size limit. The client and server must agree on their transport protocol choices. It is important to point out that RPC does not try to implement any kind of reliability and that the application may need to be aware of the type of transport protocol underneath RPC. If it knows it is running on top of a reliable transport such as TCP, then most of the work is already done for it. On the other hand, if it is running on Thurlow Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 top of an unreliable transport such as UDP [RFC0768], it must implement its own time-out, retransmission, and duplicate detection policies as the RPC protocol does not provide these services. Because of transport independence, the RPC protocol does not attach specific semantics to the remote procedures or their execution requirements. Semantics can be inferred from (but should be explicitly specified by) the underlying transport protocol. For example, consider RPC running on top of an unreliable transport such as UDP. If an application retransmits RPC call messages after time- outs, and does not receive a reply, it cannot infer anything about the number of times the procedure was executed. If it does receive a reply, then it can infer that the procedure was executed at least once. A server may wish to remember previously granted requests from a client and not regrant them, in order to insure some degree of execute-at-most-once semantics. A server can do this by taking advantage of the transaction ID that is packaged with every RPC message. The main use of this transaction ID is by the client RPC entity in matching replies to calls. However, a client application may choose to reuse its previous transaction ID when retransmitting a call. The server may choose to remember this ID after executing a call and not execute calls with the same ID, in order to achieve some degree of execute-at-most-once semantics. The server is not allowed to examine this ID in any other way except as a test for equality. On the other hand, if using a "reliable" transport such as TCP, the application can infer from a reply message that the procedure was executed exactly once, but if it receives no reply message, it cannot assume that the remote procedure was not executed. Note that even if a connection-oriented protocol like TCP is used, an application still needs time-outs and reconnections to handle server crashes. There are other possibilities for transports besides datagram- or connection-oriented protocols. For example, a request-reply protocol such as [VMTP] is perhaps a natural transport for RPC. ONC RPC currently uses both TCP and UDP transport protocols. Section 11 ("Record Marking Standard") describes the mechanism employed by ONC RPC to utilize a connection-oriented, stream-oriented transport such as TCP. The mechanism by which future transports having different structural characteristics should be used to transfer ONC RPC messages should be specified by means of a Standards Track RFC, once such additional transports are defined. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 6. Binding and Rendezvous Independence The act of binding a particular client to a particular service and transport parameters is NOT part of this RPC protocol specification. This important and necessary function is left up to some higher-level software. Implementors could think of the RPC protocol as the jump-subroutine instruction (JSR) of a network; the loader (binder) makes JSR useful, and the loader itself uses JSR to accomplish its task. Likewise, the binding software makes RPC useful, possibly using RPC to accomplish this task. 7. Authentication The RPC protocol provides the fields necessary for a client to identify itself to a service, and vice-versa, in each call and reply message. Security and access control mechanisms can be built on top of this message authentication. Several different authentication protocols can be supported. A field in the RPC header indicates which protocol is being used. More information on specific authentication protocols is in Section 8.2, "Authentication, Integrity and Privacy". 8. RPC Protocol Requirements The RPC protocol must provide for the following: o Unique specification of a procedure to be called o Provisions for matching response messages to request messages o Provisions for authenticating the caller to service and vice-versa Besides these requirements, features that detect the following are worth supporting because of protocol roll-over errors, implementation bugs, user error, and network administration: o RPC protocol mismatches o Remote program protocol version mismatches o Protocol errors (such as misspecification of a procedure's parameters) o Reasons why remote authentication failed o Any other reasons why the desired procedure was not called Thurlow Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 8.1. RPC Programs and Procedures The RPC call message has three unsigned-integer fields -- remote program number, remote program version number, and remote procedure number -- that uniquely identify the procedure to be called. Program numbers are administered by a central authority (IANA). Once implementors have a program number, they can implement their remote program; the first implementation would most likely have the version number 1 but MUST NOT be the number zero. Because most new protocols evolve, a "version" field of the call message identifies which version of the protocol the caller is using. Version numbers enable support of both old and new protocols through the same server process. The procedure number identifies the procedure to be called. These numbers are documented in the specific program's protocol specification. For example, a file service's protocol specification may state that its procedure number 5 is "read" and procedure number 12 is "write". Just as remote program protocols may change over several versions, the actual RPC message protocol could also change. Therefore, the call message also has in it the RPC version number, which is always equal to 2 for the version of RPC described here. The reply message to a request message has enough information to distinguish the following error conditions: o The remote implementation of RPC does not support protocol version 2. The lowest and highest supported RPC version numbers are returned. o The remote program is not available on the remote system. o The remote program does not support the requested version number. The lowest and highest supported remote program version numbers are returned. o The requested procedure number does not exist. (This is usually a client-side protocol or programming error.) o The parameters to the remote procedure appear to be garbage from the server's point of view. (Again, this is usually caused by a disagreement about the protocol between client and service.) Thurlow Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 8.2. Authentication, Integrity, and Privacy Provisions for authentication of caller to service and vice-versa are provided as a part of the RPC protocol. The call message has two authentication fields: the credential and the verifier. The reply message has one authentication field: the response verifier. The RPC protocol specification defines all three fields to be the following opaque type (in the eXternal Data Representation (XDR) language [RFC4506]): enum auth_flavor { AUTH_NONE = 0, AUTH_SYS = 1, AUTH_SHORT = 2, AUTH_DH = 3, RPCSEC_GSS = 6 /* and more to be defined */ }; struct opaque_auth { auth_flavor flavor; opaque body<400>; }; In other words, any "opaque_auth" structure is an "auth_flavor" enumeration followed by up to 400 bytes that are opaque to (uninterpreted by) the RPC protocol implementation. The interpretation and semantics of the data contained within the authentication fields are specified by individual, independent authentication protocol specifications. If authentication parameters were rejected, the reply message contains information stating why they were rejected. As demonstrated by RPCSEC_GSS, it is possible for an "auth_flavor" to also support integrity and privacy. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 8.3. Program Number Assignment Program numbers are given out in groups according to the following chart: 0x00000000 Reserved 0x00000001 - 0x1fffffff To be assigned by IANA 0x20000000 - 0x3fffffff Defined by local administrator (some blocks assigned here) 0x40000000 - 0x5fffffff Transient 0x60000000 - 0x7effffff Reserved 0x7f000000 - 0x7fffffff Assignment outstanding 0x80000000 - 0xffffffff Reserved The first group is a range of numbers administered by IANA and should be identical for all sites. The second range is for applications peculiar to a particular site. This range is intended primarily for debugging new programs. When a site develops an application that might be of general interest, that application should be given an assigned number in the first range. Application developers may apply for blocks of RPC program numbers in the first range by methods described in Appendix B. The third group is for applications that generate program numbers dynamically. The final groups are reserved for future use, and should not be used. 8.4. Other Uses of the RPC Protocol The intended use of this protocol is for calling remote procedures. Normally, each call message is matched with a reply message. However, the protocol itself is a message-passing protocol with which other (non-procedure-call) protocols can be implemented. 8.4.1. Batching Batching is useful when a client wishes to send an arbitrarily large sequence of call messages to a server. Batching typically uses reliable byte stream protocols (like TCP) for its transport. In the case of batching, the client never waits for a reply from the server, and the server does not send replies to batch calls. A sequence of batch calls is usually terminated by a legitimate remote procedure call operation in order to flush the pipeline and get positive acknowledgement. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 8.4.2. Broadcast Remote Procedure Calls In broadcast protocols, the client sends a broadcast call to the network and waits for numerous replies. This requires the use of packet-based protocols (like UDP) as its transport protocol. Servers that support broadcast protocols usually respond only when the call is successfully processed and are silent in the face of errors, but this varies with the application. The principles of broadcast RPC also apply to multicasting -- an RPC request can be sent to a multicast address. 9. The RPC Message Protocol This section defines the RPC message protocol in the XDR data description language [RFC4506]. enum msg_type { CALL = 0, REPLY = 1 }; A reply to a call message can take on two forms: the message was either accepted or rejected. enum reply_stat { MSG_ACCEPTED = 0, MSG_DENIED = 1 }; Given that a call message was accepted, the following is the status of an attempt to call a remote procedure. enum accept_stat { SUCCESS = 0, /* RPC executed successfully */ PROG_UNAVAIL = 1, /* remote hasn't exported program */ PROG_MISMATCH = 2, /* remote can't support version # */ PROC_UNAVAIL = 3, /* program can't support procedure */ GARBAGE_ARGS = 4, /* procedure can't decode params */ SYSTEM_ERR = 5 /* e.g. memory allocation failure */ }; Reasons why a call message was rejected: enum reject_stat { RPC_MISMATCH = 0, /* RPC version number != 2 */ AUTH_ERROR = 1 /* remote can't authenticate caller */ }; Thurlow Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 Why authentication failed: enum auth_stat { AUTH_OK = 0, /* success */ /* * failed at remote end */ AUTH_BADCRED = 1, /* bad credential (seal broken) */ AUTH_REJECTEDCRED = 2, /* client must begin new session */ AUTH_BADVERF = 3, /* bad verifier (seal broken) */ AUTH_REJECTEDVERF = 4, /* verifier expired or replayed */ AUTH_TOOWEAK = 5, /* rejected for security reasons */ /* * failed locally */ AUTH_INVALIDRESP = 6, /* bogus response verifier */ AUTH_FAILED = 7, /* reason unknown */ /* * AUTH_KERB errors; deprecated. See [RFC2695] */ AUTH_KERB_GENERIC = 8, /* kerberos generic error */ AUTH_TIMEEXPIRE = 9, /* time of credential expired */ AUTH_TKT_FILE = 10, /* problem with ticket file */ AUTH_DECODE = 11, /* can't decode authenticator */ AUTH_NET_ADDR = 12, /* wrong net address in ticket */ /* * RPCSEC_GSS GSS related errors */ RPCSEC_GSS_CREDPROBLEM = 13, /* no credentials for user */ RPCSEC_GSS_CTXPROBLEM = 14 /* problem with context */ }; As new authentication mechanisms are added, there may be a need for more status codes to support them. IANA will hand out new auth_stat numbers on a simple First Come First Served basis as defined in the "IANA Considerations" and Appendix B. The RPC message: All messages start with a transaction identifier, xid, followed by a two-armed discriminated union. The union's discriminant is a msg_type that switches to one of the two types of the message. The xid of a REPLY message always matches that of the initiating CALL message. NB: The "xid" field is only used for clients matching reply messages with call messages or for servers detecting retransmissions; the service side cannot treat this id as any type of sequence number. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 struct rpc_msg { unsigned int xid; union switch (msg_type mtype) { case CALL: call_body cbody; case REPLY: reply_body rbody; } body; }; Body of an RPC call: In version 2 of the RPC protocol specification, rpcvers MUST be equal to 2. The fields "prog", "vers", and "proc" specify the remote program, its version number, and the procedure within the remote program to be called. After these fields are two authentication parameters: cred (authentication credential) and verf (authentication verifier). The two authentication parameters are followed by the parameters to the remote procedure, which are specified by the specific program protocol. The purpose of the authentication verifier is to validate the authentication credential. Note that these two items are historically separate, but are always used together as one logical entity. struct call_body { unsigned int rpcvers; /* must be equal to two (2) */ unsigned int prog; unsigned int vers; unsigned int proc; opaque_auth cred; opaque_auth verf; /* procedure-specific parameters start here */ }; Body of a reply to an RPC call: union reply_body switch (reply_stat stat) { case MSG_ACCEPTED: accepted_reply areply; case MSG_DENIED: rejected_reply rreply; } reply; Thurlow Standards Track [Page 13]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 Reply to an RPC call that was accepted by the server: There could be an error even though the call was accepted. The first field is an authentication verifier that the server generates in order to validate itself to the client. It is followed by a union whose discriminant is an enum accept_stat. The SUCCESS arm of the union is protocol-specific. The PROG_UNAVAIL, PROC_UNAVAIL, GARBAGE_ARGS, and SYSTEM_ERR arms of the union are void. The PROG_MISMATCH arm specifies the lowest and highest version numbers of the remote program supported by the server. struct accepted_reply { opaque_auth verf; union switch (accept_stat stat) { case SUCCESS: opaque results[0]; /* * procedure-specific results start here */ case PROG_MISMATCH: struct { unsigned int low; unsigned int high; } mismatch_info; default: /* * Void. Cases include PROG_UNAVAIL, PROC_UNAVAIL, * GARBAGE_ARGS, and SYSTEM_ERR. */ void; } reply_data; }; Reply to an RPC call that was rejected by the server: The call can be rejected for two reasons: either the server is not running a compatible version of the RPC protocol (RPC_MISMATCH) or the server rejects the identity of the caller (AUTH_ERROR). In case of an RPC version mismatch, the server returns the lowest and highest supported RPC version numbers. In case of invalid authentication, failure status is returned. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 14]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 union rejected_reply switch (reject_stat stat) { case RPC_MISMATCH: struct { unsigned int low; unsigned int high; } mismatch_info; case AUTH_ERROR: auth_stat stat; }; 10. Authentication Protocols As previously stated, authentication parameters are opaque, but open-ended to the rest of the RPC protocol. This section defines two standard flavors of authentication. Implementors are free to invent new authentication types, with the same rules of flavor number assignment as there are for program number assignment. The flavor of a credential or verifier refers to the value of the "flavor" field in the opaque_auth structure. Flavor numbers, like RPC program numbers, are also administered centrally, and developers may assign new flavor numbers by methods described in Appendix B. Credentials and verifiers are represented as variable-length opaque data (the "body" field in the opaque_auth structure). In this document, two flavors of authentication are described. Of these, Null authentication (described in the next subsection) is mandatory -- it MUST be available in all implementations. System authentication (AUTH_SYS) is described in Appendix A. Implementors MAY include AUTH_SYS in their implementations to support existing applications. See "Security Considerations" for information about other, more secure, authentication flavors. 10.1. Null Authentication Often, calls must be made where the client does not care about its identity or the server does not care who the client is. In this case, the flavor of the RPC message's credential, verifier, and reply verifier is "AUTH_NONE". Opaque data associated with "AUTH_NONE" is undefined. It is recommended that the length of the opaque data be zero. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 15]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 11. Record Marking Standard When RPC messages are passed on top of a byte stream transport protocol (like TCP), it is necessary to delimit one message from another in order to detect and possibly recover from protocol errors. This is called record marking (RM). One RPC message fits into one RM record. A record is composed of one or more record fragments. A record fragment is a four-byte header followed by 0 to (2**31) - 1 bytes of fragment data. The bytes encode an unsigned binary number; as with XDR integers, the byte order is from highest to lowest. The number encodes two values -- a boolean that indicates whether the fragment is the last fragment of the record (bit value 1 implies the fragment is the last fragment) and a 31-bit unsigned binary value that is the length in bytes of the fragment's data. The boolean value is the highest-order bit of the header; the length is the 31 low-order bits. (Note that this record specification is NOT in XDR standard form!) 12. The RPC Language Just as there was a need to describe the XDR data-types in a formal language, there is also need to describe the procedures that operate on these XDR data-types in a formal language as well. The RPC language is an extension to the XDR language, with the addition of "program", "procedure", and "version" declarations. The keywords "program" and "version" are reserved in the RPC language, and implementations of XDR compilers MAY reserve these keywords even when provided with pure XDR, non-RPC, descriptions. The following example is used to describe the essence of the language. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 16]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 12.1. An Example Service Described in the RPC Language Here is an example of the specification of a simple ping program. program PING_PROG { /* * Latest and greatest version */ version PING_VERS_PINGBACK { void PINGPROC_NULL(void) = 0; /* * Ping the client, return the round-trip time * (in microseconds). Returns -1 if the operation * timed out. */ int PINGPROC_PINGBACK(void) = 1; } = 2; /* * Original version */ version PING_VERS_ORIG { void PINGPROC_NULL(void) = 0; } = 1; } = 1; const PING_VERS = 2; /* latest version */ The first version described is PING_VERS_PINGBACK with two procedures: PINGPROC_NULL and PINGPROC_PINGBACK. PINGPROC_NULL takes no arguments and returns no results, but it is useful for computing round-trip times from the client to the server and back again. By convention, procedure 0 of any RPC protocol should have the same semantics and never require any kind of authentication. The second procedure is used for the client to have the server do a reverse ping operation back to the client, and it returns the amount of time (in microseconds) that the operation used. The next version, PING_VERS_ORIG, is the original version of the protocol, and it does not contain the PINGPROC_PINGBACK procedure. It is useful for compatibility with old client programs, and as this program matures, it may be dropped from the protocol entirely. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 17]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 12.2. The RPC Language Specification The RPC language is identical to the XDR language defined in RFC 4506, except for the added definition of a "program-def", described below. program-def: "program" identifier "{" version-def version-def * "}" "=" constant ";" version-def: "version" identifier "{" procedure-def procedure-def * "}" "=" constant ";" procedure-def: proc-return identifier "(" proc-firstarg ("," type-specifier )* ")" "=" constant ";" proc-return: "void" | type-specifier proc-firstarg: "void" | type-specifier 12.3. Syntax Notes o The following keywords are added and cannot be used as identifiers: "program" and "version". o A version name cannot occur more than once within the scope of a program definition. Neither can a version number occur more than once within the scope of a program definition. o A procedure name cannot occur more than once within the scope of a version definition. Neither can a procedure number occur more than once within the scope of version definition. o Program identifiers are in the same name space as constant and type identifiers. o Only unsigned constants can be assigned to programs, versions, and procedures. o Current RPC language compilers do not generally support more than one type-specifier in procedure argument lists; the usual practice is to wrap arguments into a structure. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 18]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 13. IANA Considerations The assignment of RPC program numbers, authentication flavor numbers, and authentication status numbers has in the past been performed by Sun Microsystems, Inc (Sun). This is inappropriate for an IETF Standards Track protocol, as such work is done well by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). This document proposes the transfer of authority over RPC program numbers, authentication flavor numbers, and authentication status numbers described here from Sun Microsystems, Inc. to IANA and describes how IANA will maintain and assign these numbers. Users of RPC protocols will benefit by having an independent body responsible for these number assignments. 13.1. Numbering Requests to IANA Appendix B of this document describes the information to be sent to IANA to request one or more RPC numbers and the rules that apply. IANA will store the request for documentary purposes and put the following information into the public registry: o The short description of purpose and use o The program number(s) assigned o The short identifier string(s) 13.2. Protecting Past Assignments Sun has made assignments in both the RPC program number space and the RPC authentication flavor number space since the original deployment of RPC. The assignments made by Sun Microsystems are still valid, and will be preserved. Sun has communicated all current assignments in both number spaces to IANA and final handoff of number assignment is complete. Current program and auth number assignments are provided in Appendix C. Current authentication status numbers are listed in Section 9 of this document in the "enum auth_stat" definition. 13.3. RPC Number Assignment Future IANA practice will deal with the following partitioning of the 32-bit number space as listed in Section 8.3. Detailed information for the administration of the partitioned blocks in Section 8.3 is given below. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 19]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 13.3.1. To Be Assigned By IANA The first block will be administered by IANA, with previous assignments by Sun protected. Previous assignments were restricted to the range decimal 100000-399999 (0x000186a0 to 0x00061a7f); therefore, IANA will begin assignments at decimal 400000. Individual numbers should be grated on a First Come First Served basis, and blocks should be granted under rules related to the size of the block. 13.3.2. Defined by Local Administrator The "Defined by local administrator" block is available for any local administrative domain to use, in a similar manner to IP address ranges reserved for private use. The expected use would be through the establishment of a local domain "authority" for assigning numbers from this range. This authority would establish any policies or procedures to be used within that local domain for use or assignment of RPC numbers from the range. The local domain should be sufficiently isolated that it would be unlikely that RPC applications developed by other local domains could communicate with the domain. This could result in RPC number contention, which would cause one of the applications to fail. In the absence of a local administrator, this block can be utilized in a "Private Use" manner per [RFC5226]. 13.3.3. Transient Block The "Transient" block can be used by any RPC application on an "as available" basis. This range is intended for services that can communicate a dynamically selected RPC program number to clients of the service. Any mechanism can be used to communicate the number. For example, either shared memory when the client and server are located on the same system or a network message (either RPC or otherwise) that disseminates the selected number can be used. The transient block is not administered. An RPC service uses this range by selecting a number in the transient range and attempting to register that number with the local system's RPC bindery (see the RPCBPROC_SET or PMAPPROC_SET procedures in "Binding Protocols for ONC RPC Version 2", [RFC1833]). If successful, no other RPC service was using that number and the RPC Bindery has assigned that number to the requesting RPC application. The registration is valid until the RPC Bindery terminates, which normally would only happen if the system reboots, causing all applications, including the RPC service using the transient number, to terminate. If the transient number registration fails, another RPC application is using the number and Thurlow Standards Track [Page 20]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 the requestor must select another number and try again. To avoid conflicts, the recommended method is to select a number randomly from the transient range. 13.3.4. Reserved Block The "Reserved" blocks are available for future use. RPC applications must not use numbers in these ranges unless their use is allowed by future action by the IESG. 13.3.5. RPC Number Sub-Blocks RPC numbers are usually assigned for specific RPC services. Some applications, however, require multiple RPC numbers for a service. The most common example is an RPC service that needs to have multiple instances of the service active simultaneously at a specific site. RPC does not have an "instance identifier" in the protocol, so either a mechanism must be implemented to multiplex RPC requests amongst various instances of the service or unique RPC numbers must be used by each instance. In these cases, the RPC protocol used with the various numbers may be different or the same. The numbers may either be assigned dynamically by the application, or as part of a site-specific administrative decision. If possible, RPC services that dynamically assign RPC numbers should use the "Transient" RPC number block defined in Section 13.3.3. If not possible, RPC number sub-blocks may be requested. Assignment of RPC Number Sub-Blocks is controlled by the size of the sub-block being requested. "Specification Required" and "IESG Approval" are used as defined by Section 4.1 of [RFC5226]. Size of sub-block Assignment Method Authority ----------------- ----------------- --------- Up to 100 numbers First Come First Served IANA Up to 1000 numbers Specification Required IANA More than 1000 numbers IESG Approval required IESG Note: sub-blocks can be any size. The limits given above are maximums, and smaller size sub-blocks are allowed. Sub-blocks sized up to 100 numbers may be assigned by IANA on a First Come First Served basis. The RPC Service Description included in the range must include an indication of how the sub-block is managed. At a minimum, the statement should indicate whether the sub-block is Thurlow Standards Track [Page 21]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 used with a single RPC protocol or multiple RPC protocols, and whether the numbers are dynamically assigned or statically (through administrative action) assigned. Sub-blocks of up to 1000 numbers must be documented in detail. The documentation must describe the RPC protocol or protocols that are to be used in the range. It must also describe how the numbers within the sub-block are to be assigned or used. Sub-blocks sized over 1000 numbers must be documented as described above, and the assignment must be approved by the IESG. It is expected that this will be rare. In order to avoid multiple requests of large blocks of numbers, the following rule is proposed. Requests up to and including 100 RPC numbers are handled via the First Come First Served assignment method. This 100 number threshold applies to the total number of RPC numbers assigned to an individual or entity. For example, if an individual or entity first requests, say, 70 numbers, and then later requests 40 numbers, then the request for the 40 numbers will be assigned via the Specification Required method. As long as the total number of numbers assigned does not exceed 1000, IANA is free to waive the Specification Required assignment for incremental requests of less than 100 numbers. If an individual or entity has under 1000 numbers and later requests an additional set of numbers such that the individual or entity would be granted over 1000 numbers, then the additional request will require IESG Approval. 13.4. RPC Authentication Flavor Number Assignment The second number space is the authentication mechanism identifier, or "flavor", number. This number is used to distinguish between various authentication mechanisms that can be optionally used with an RPC message. An authentication identifier is used in the "flavor" field of the "opaque_auth" structure. 13.4.1. Assignment Policy Appendix B of this document describes the information to be sent to IANA to request one or more RPC auth numbers and the rules that apply. IANA will store the request for documentary purposes and put the following information into the public registry: Thurlow Standards Track [Page 22]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 o The short identifier string(s) o The auth number(s) assigned o The short description of purpose and use 13.4.2. Auth Flavors vs. Pseudo-Flavors Recent progress in RPC security has moved away from new auth flavors as used by AUTH_DH [DH], and has focused on using the existing RPCSEC_GSS [RFC2203] flavor and inventing novel GSS-API (Generic Security Services Application Programming Interface) mechanisms that can be used with it. Even though RPCSEC_GSS is an assigned authentication flavor, use of a new RPCSEC_GSS mechanism with the Network File System (NFS) ([RFC1094] [RFC1813], and [RFC3530]) will require the registration of 'pseudo-flavors' that are used to negotiate security mechanisms in an unambiguous way, as defined by [RFC2623]. Existing pseudo-flavors have been granted in the decimal range 390000-390255. New pseudo-flavor requests will be granted by IANA within this block on a First Come First Served basis. For non-pseudo-flavor requests, IANA will begin granting RPC authentication flavor numbers at 400000 on a First Come First Served basis to avoid conflicts with currently granted numbers. For authentication flavors or RPCSEC_GSS mechanisms to be used on the Internet, it is strongly advised that an Informational or Standards Track RFC be published describing the authentication mechanism behaviour and parameters. 13.5. Authentication Status Number Assignment The final number space is the authentication status or "auth_stat" values that describe the nature of a problem found during an attempt to authenticate or validate authentication. The complete initial list of these values is found in Section 9 of this document, in the "auth_stat" enum listing. It is expected that it will be rare to add values, but that a small number of new values may be added from time to time as new authentication flavors introduce new possibilities. Numbers should be granted on a First Come First Served basis to avoid conflicts with currently granted numbers. 13.5.1. Assignment Policy Appendix B of this document describes the information to be sent to IANA to request one or more auth_stat values and the rules that apply. IANA will store the request for documentary purposes, and put the following information into the public registry: Thurlow Standards Track [Page 23]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 o The short identifier string(s) o The auth_stat number(s) assigned o The short description of purpose and use 14. Security Considerations AUTH_SYS as described in Appendix A is known to be insecure due to the lack of a verifier to permit the credential to be validated. AUTH_SYS SHOULD NOT be used for services that permit clients to modify data. AUTH_SYS MUST NOT be specified as RECOMMENDED or REQUIRED for any Standards Track RPC service. AUTH_DH as mentioned in Sections 8.2 and 13.4.2 is considered obsolete and insecure; see [RFC2695]. AUTH_DH SHOULD NOT be used for services that permit clients to modify data. AUTH_DH MUST NOT be specified as RECOMMENDED or REQUIRED for any Standards Track RPC service. [RFC2203] defines a new security flavor, RPCSEC_GSS, which permits GSS-API [RFC2743] mechanisms to be used for securing RPC. All non- trivial RPC programs developed in the future should implement RPCSEC_GSS-based security appropriately. [RFC2623] describes how this was done for a widely deployed RPC program. Standards Track RPC services MUST mandate support for RPCSEC_GSS, and MUST mandate support for an authentication pseudo-flavor with appropriate levels of security, depending on the need for simple authentication, integrity (a.k.a. non-repudiation), or data privacy. Thurlow Standards Track [Page 24]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 Appendix A: System Authentication The client may wish to identify itself, for example, as it is identified on a UNIX(tm) system. The flavor of the client credential is "AUTH_SYS". The opaque data constituting the credential encodes the following structure: struct authsys_parms { unsigned int stamp; string machinename<255>; unsigned int uid; unsigned int gid; unsigned int gids<16>; }; The "stamp" is an arbitrary ID that the caller machine may generate. The "machinename" is the name of the caller's machine (like "krypton"). The "uid" is the caller's effective user ID. The "gid" is the caller's effective group ID. "gids" are a counted array of groups that contain the caller as a member. The verifier accompanying the credential should have "AUTH_NONE" flavor value (defined above). Note that this credential is only unique within a particular domain of machine names, uids, and gids. The flavor value of the verifier received in the reply message from the server may be "AUTH_NONE" or "AUTH_SHORT". In the case of "AUTH_SHORT", the bytes of the reply verifier's string encode an opaque structure. This new opaque structure may now be passed to the server instead of the original "AUTH_SYS" flavor credential. The server may keep a cache that maps shorthand opaque structures (passed back by way of an "AUTH_SHORT" style reply verifier) to the original credentials of the caller. The caller can save network bandwidth and server cpu cycles by using the shorthand credential. The server may flush the shorthand opaque structure at any time. If this happens, the remote procedure call message will be rejected due to an authentication error. The reason for the failure will be "AUTH_REJECTEDCRED". At this point, the client may wish to try the original "AUTH_SYS" style of credential. It should be noted that use of this flavor of authentication does not guarantee any security for the users or providers of a service, in itself. The authentication provided by this scheme can be considered legitimate only when applications using this scheme and the network can be secured externally, and privileged transport addresses are used for the communicating end-points (an example of this is the use of privileged TCP/UDP ports in UNIX systems -- note that not all systems enforce privileged transport address mechanisms). Thurlow Standards Track [Page 25]
RFC 5531 Remote Procedure Call Protocol Version 2 May 2009 Appendix B: Requesting RPC-Related Numbers from IANA RPC program numbers, authentication flavor numbers, and authentication status numbers that must be unique across all networks are assigned by the Internet Assigned Number Authority. To apply for a single number or a block of numbers, electronic mail must be sent to IANA <iana@iana.org> with the following information: o The type of number(s) (program number or authentication flavor number or authentication status number) sought o How many numbers are sought o The name of the person or company that will use the number o An "identifier string" that associates the number with a service o Email address of the contact person for the service that will be using the number o A short description of the purpose and use of the number o If an authentication flavor number is sought, and the number will be a 'pseudo-flavor' intended for use with RPCSEC_GSS and NFS, mappings analogous to those in Section 4.2 of [RFC2623] Specific numbers cannot be requested. Numbers are assigned on a First Come First Served basis. For all RPC authentication flavor and authentication status numbers to be used on the Internet, it is strongly advised that an Informational or Standards Track RFC be published describing the authentication mechanism behaviour and parameters.
