<H2>Abstract</H2>

<P>This is the specification for an API which provides Credentials
Cache services for both
<A HREF="http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/www/">Kerberos V5</A> and V4.
The idea behind this API is that multiple Kerberos implementations
can share a single Credentials Cache, mediated by this API
specification. On the Microsoft Windows platform this will allow
single-signon, even when more than one Kerberos DLL is in use on a
particular system. Ideally, this problem could be solved by
standardizing the Kerberos V5 API library interface. However, the
Kerberos API is complicated enough that this would be hard to
accomplish. Standardizing the interface for credentials cache access
is much simpler. This API has also been adopted in the MIT Kerberos
for the Macintosh implementation.

<P>This specification has been revised to allow storage and
manipulation of both V4 and V5 tickets. A cache contains one or more
"Named Cache"s. It is assumed that V4 and V5 credentials would each
be stored in separate "Named Cache"s and not mixed in a single "Named
Cache".

<P>Below, "NC" refers to "Named Cache".<BR>

<H4>Revision 2 (Draft Version 1)</H4>

<P>970628 by <A HREF="http://www.umich.edu/~sgr">Steve Rothwell</A>
for the V4Cache Team (Paul Hill, Jenny Khuon, Jean Luker, Dave
Detlefs, Allan Bjorklund, &amp; Steve Rothwell)

<P><A NAME="ChangesRev3"></A>

<H4>Revision 3 (Draft Version 1)</H4>

<P>970725 by Steve Rothwell after initial implementation and alpha
release. The term "credentials cache" was previously used to mean
both "the main cache" and individual "named cache"s within the main
cache. I have started using the term "NC" for "named cache" to make
the distinction clearer and to reduce the overloading of the word
"cache".

<H5>Changes made for revision 3 of this API:</H5>

<UL>
   <LI>Added cred version type to cc_create() &amp; cc_open()
   
   <LI>New functions
   
   <UL>
      <LI>cc_get_NC_info(), returns NC_info list for all NCs
      
      <LI>cc_free_NC_info(), frees NC_info list
      
      <LI>cc_get_cred_version(), returns version type of NC
      
      <LI>cc_get_name(), returns name of NC
      
      <LI>cc_free_name(), frees name aquired via cc_get_name()
      
      <LI>cc_seq_fetch_NCs(), iterate over all NCs
   </UL>
   
   <LI>New return codes
   
   <UL>
      <LI>CC_BAD_PARM
      
      <LI>CC_ERR_CACHE_ATTACH
      
      <LI>CC_ERR_CACHE_RELEASE

      <LI>CC_ERR_CRED_VERSION
   </UL>
   
   <LI>Modified functions
   
   <UL>
      <LI>cc_create(), cc_open(), pass version type of NC
      
      <LI>cc_store(), cc_remove(), cc_
   </UL>
   
   <LI>New &amp; Modified typedefs &amp; data structures
   
   <UL>
      <LI>cc_cred_vers { CC_CRED_VUNKNOWN, CC_CRED_V4, CC_CRED_V5 }
      
      <LI>cred_ptr_union : contains pointer to credentials (either V4
      or V5)
      
      <LI>cred_union : contains version type and cred_ptr_union
      
      <LI>modified V4Cred_type
      
      <LI>enum StringToKey_Type { STK_AFS or STK_DES }
      
      <LI>copies of the maximum V4 string size indicators
      KRB_PRINCIPAL_SZ, KRB_SERVICE_SZ, KRB_INSTANCE_SZ,
      KRB_REALM_SZ, ADDR_SZ
   </UL>
</UL>

<H4>Revision 4 (Draft Version 1)</H4>

<P>970908 by Steve Rothwell to incorporate changes initiated by Ted
Tso. Further changes are expected in the comments for cc_create() and
cc_get_change_time().

<H4>Revision 4a (Final Version 1)</H4>

<P>980603 by <A HREF="mailto:smcguire@mit.edu">Scott McGuire</A> to
correct typographical errors, HTML errors, and minor clarifications.
Final API Version 1 spec.

<H4>Revision 5 (Draft Version 2)</H4>

<P>990201 by <A HREF="mailto:smcguire@mit.edu">Scott McGuire</A>.

<UL>
   <LI>Increased API version number to 2.
   
   <LI>Added enum's defining version numbers.
   
   <LI>Changes to cc_initialize() to specify how to deal with
   different API version numbers.
   
   <LI>Added description of cc_int32 and cc_uint32 types.
   
   <LI>Change some cc_int32's to cc_uint32's.
   
   <LI>Changed way cc_create() will behave when called on an existing
   cache.
   
   <LI>Replaced cc_seq_fetch_NCs() with cc_seq_fetch_NCs_begin(),
   cc_seq_fetch_NCs_next(), and cc_seq_fetch_NCs_end();
   
   <LI>Replaced cc_seq_fetch_creds() with cc_seq_fetch_creds_begin(),
   cc_seq_fetch_creds_next(), and cc_seq_fetch_creds_end();
   
   <LI>Replaced enum type references in structs and function
   paramenters with cc_int32 references;
   
   <LI>Replaced int type references in function parameters with
   cc_int32;
   
   <LI>Added return type of cc_int32 to all functions;
   
   <LI>Removed #ifdef from cred_union structure;
   
   <LI>Constant definitions and changes to V4Cred_type structure;
   
   <LI>Removed incorrect const ccache_p * parameters from cc_store()
   and cc_remove_cred();
   
   <LI>Added CC_NOERROR and CC_BAD_PARM as possible return codes from
   all functions (except no CC_BAD_PARM from cc_shutdown() );
   
   <LI>Added CC_ERR_CRED_VERSION as possible return code from
   cc_open() and cc_create();
   
   <LI>Moved infoNC structure definition up to be with rest of
   structure definitions;
   
   <LI>Changed "struct _infoNC" to "infoNC" in parameter type
   references.
   
   <LI>cc_free_principal() and cc_free_name() now take char **
   instead of char * for final parameter. (This change was made
   between rev 4a and rev 5, but I'm re-emphasizing it here.)
   
   <LI>Added Implementation Notes section with requirement that all
   functions must be atomic and name requirements for Windows DLL's.
   
   <LI>Renamed "the proposed changes to this API are" section to
   "Ideas for Future Versions" -- but removed all items but one
   because they'd all been done.
   
   <LI>Removed most of the notes about differences with the Win NT/95
   implementation of the API -- the differences have been reconciled.
   
   <LI>Removed unnecessary and inconsistent italicizing.
</UL>

<H4>Revsion 5a (Final Version 2)</H4>

<P>990723 by <A HREF="mailto:smcguire@mit.edu">Scott McGuire</A>.

<UL>
   <LI>cc_create(): Removed text about "expected" form of name.
   Removed note about "the alpha version does not do this."
   
   <LI>cc_destroy(): Clarified that you do not need to call
   cc_close() on the cache_pointer after calling this function.
   
   <LI>Removed note about Windows cc_get_instance() and
   cc_set_instance() functions, they are no longer part of the
   Windows code!
</UL>

<H2><A NAME="FutureIdeas"></A>Ideas for Future Versions</H2>

<UL>
   <LI>Define Get/Set functions for all components of _cc_creds?
   (This will allow future changes to the data structure to be
   transparent to the caller. This also makes backward compatibility
   much easier to maintain.)
</UL>

returns all the information needed to uniquely identify each NC in
the cache (name and cred_version) and the associated principal.
Specifically it returns a null terminated list of pointers to infoNC
structs. Each infoNC struct contain a pointer to the NC's name, a
pointer to the the principal associated with the NC, and the version
number (as an enumerated type) of the credentials stored in this NC.

<P>The ppNCi (the entire data structure) aquired by this routine

<P>Create a new NC. The NC is uniquely identified by the combination
of it's name and the "cc_creds_vers" (i.e. which credentials version
it holds). The principal given is also associated with the NC. A NULL
<B>name</B> is not allowed (and CC_BADNAME should be returned if one
is passed in). If <B>name</B> is non-null and there is already a NC
named <B>name</B>, all credentials in the cache are removed, and
handle for the existing cache is returned. If there is already a NC
named name, all existing handles for this cache remain valid. The NC
is created with a primary principal specified by <B>principal</B>.

<P><I>(Removed text about the "expected" form of the NC name.)</I>

<P>An NC is intended to hold credentials for a single principal in a
single realm, and for a single credentials version (i.e. V4 or V5).
The cache can contain credentials for other credential versions,
other realms, and even other principals, but each in a separate NC.
This rule will allow callers that can only handle a single principal
in a single realm to continue to work by dealing with only one NC.
Callers that can deal with multiple principals, multiple realms,
and/or multiple credentials versions can do so by dealing with
multiple NCs. By doing it this way, the callers that are able to
handle multiple principals, realms, and/or versions can do so without
interfering with "differently abled" code.

<PRE>cc_int32 cc_seq_fetch_creds_next(apiCB* cc_ctx, cred_union** cred, ccache_cit* itCreds)</PRE>

<P>cc_seq_fetch_creds_next() is used to sequentially read every set
of credentials in an NC. The NC has been indicated in the call to
cc_seq_fetch_creds_begin().

<P>itCreds must be a pointer to a ccache_cit* variable provided by
the calling application and which is used by
cc_seq_fetch_creds_next() to determine the next cached credential to
return. The ccache_cit* variable must be initialized by calling
cc_seq_fetch_creds_begin().

<P>The credentials are filled into the cred_union pointed to by
creds. Note that the cred_union contains elements which are
dynamically allocated, so must be freed using cc_free_creds() between
calls to cc_seq_fetch_creds_next().

<P>If changes are made to the NC while it iterator is being used, it
must return at least the intersection, and at most the union, of the
set of credentials that were in the NC when the iteration began and
the set of credentials that are in the NC when it ends.

<P>When the last credential in the sequence is returned, the return
code from cc_seq_fetch_creds_next() will be CC_END.

<P>Possible error codes: CC_NOERROR, CC_END, CC_NO_EXIST,
CC_BAD_PARM, CC_NOMEM

   <DD><B>As of&nbsp;this date there is no locking in the Win NT/95
   or Machintosh implementations. The description below may not be
   completely accurate as to how this function should be
   implemented.</B>
</DL>

<P>This function is currently NOT IMPLEMENTED. All functions attach
to the cache, take action, and detach from the cache before returning
to the caller.

<P>This function will lock or unlock the NC based on the argument
value of lock_type:

<PRE>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; CC_LOCK_UNLOCK&nbsp; 1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Unlock the NC
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; CC_LOCK_READER&nbsp; 2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Lock the NC for reading
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; CC_LOCK_WRITER&nbsp; 3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Lock the NC for writing
&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; CC_LOCK_NOBLOCK 16&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Don't block, but return an error code if
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the request cannot be satisfied.
&nbsp;</PRE>

<P>Locking is done on a per-thread basis. At most one thread may have
the credentials locked for writing; if so, there must not be any
threads that have the credentials locked for reading.

<P>Multiple threads may have the cache locked for reading, as long as
there is not a writer lock asserted on the cache.

<P>If a thread has a cache locked for reading, that lock may be
upgraded to a writer lock by calling cc_lock_request() with a
lock_type of CC_LOCK_WRITER. If a thread has the cache locked for
reading or writing, a request to cc_lock_request() for a reader or
writer lock, respectively, is a no-op. If a thread does not have the
cache locked, and calls cc_lock_request() with a lock_type of
CC_LOCK_UNLOCK, this is also a no-op.

<P>A request for CC_LOCK_READER and CC_LOCK_WRITER may be made
non-blocking by logical or'ing the value CC_LOCK_NOBLOCK. In that
case, if it is not possible to satisfy the lock request, the error
CC_LOCKED will be returned.
