Repo Protocol Specification
2
===========================
3
4 36 Shuo Chen
A Repo supports the network by preserving content and responding to Interests requesting content that it holds. A Repo can exist in any node, and is recommended if applications in that node need to preserve data. The NDN repo protocol is a specification of repo operations including reading, insertion and deletion of data objects in repo.
5 2 Shuo Chen
6
Repo semantics is based on [Command Interests](http://redmine.named-data.net/projects/nfd/wiki/Command_Interests) with signed commponents an the end of the name and basic common semantics of NDN. 
7
8 11 Shuo Chen
When some operation of repo including insertion and deletion of data objects is requested, a command interest is sent. The command interest is the interest as command of insertion and deletion and signed as form of command interest for access control. The repo will response the command with the data object.
9 4 Shuo Chen
10
The repo protocol can be categorized in three sections of reading, insertion and deletion of data objects.
11
12
## Repo Reading Specification
13
14 36 Shuo Chen
Repo registers prefixes of data objects it holds into NDN fowarding deamon and the repo will respond the data with such prefixes.
15 6 Shuo Chen
16 11 Shuo Chen
A standard interest is used to fetch content from the repo. The repo will respond when the name of the interest matches the prefix it registered in NFD. If the content in repo matches the interests, it will respond with the data object. When the interest is not matched, it will not respond.
17 6 Shuo Chen
18
The protocol is listed as bellow
19
20
If there is a matching data object:

## Repo Command
46
For insertion, deletion and other operations of repo, these commands are encoded in the form of [sigend command interest](http://redmine.named-data.net/projects/nfd/wiki/Command_Interests). The semantics of repo command interest is as follows:
47 14 Shuo Chen
48 8 Shuo Chen
The name semantics is defined to have following components:
49 1 Shuo Chen
50 17 Shuo Chen
* ``<name of repo>`` refers to specific name of repo
51 30 Shuo Chen
* ``<command verb>`` refers to the name of command
52
* ``<RepoCommandParameters>`` refers to parameters of repo command
53 1 Shuo Chen
54 38 Shuo Chen
The following components are components of singed interest for access control:
55 1 Shuo Chen
56
* ``<timestamp>``
57 8 Shuo Chen
* ``<random-value>``
58
* ``<SignatureInfo>``
59
* ``<SignatureValue>``
60
61 30 Shuo Chen
For name of the repo /ucla/cs/repo/, the command will be defined as this:
62 33 Shuo Chen
63 30 Shuo Chen
    /ucla/cs/repo/<command verb>/<RepoCommandParameters>/<timestamp>/<random-value>/<SignatureInfo>/<SignatureValue>
64 14 Shuo Chen

#### Name
108
109 50 Shuo Chen
Name in command parameter is TLV-encoded block and represents the name or prefix of the data repo will process. The definition and format of name section are the same as the [name section](http://named-data.net/doc/ndn-tlv/name.html#name) of NDN interest.
110 45 Shuo Chen
111 44 Shuo Chen
#### Repo Command Selectors
112 38 Shuo Chen
113 52 Shuo Chen
Repo command supports parts of interest selectors of interest to indicate which contents to process. The definition of standard NDN selectors is described in [NDN Selectors Doc](http://named-data.net/doc/ndn-tlv/interest.html#selectors). The concrete definitions of both standard NDN selectors and repo command selectors are the same.
114
115
The difference between standard NDN interest and Repo Deletion Command interest that, the standard NDN selectors just matches **one** data packet that conforms to the selector conditions, but repo command selectors would matches **any** data packets. For example, if Interest is expressed for /ndn/edu and Exclude specifies one name component ucla, in standard NDN interest, the data producers will first exclude all the data packets with prefix /ndn/edu but not /ndn/edu/ucla, and then just selects one data packet. In repo deletion command interest, it will select all the data packets with prefix /ndn/edu but not /ndn/edu/ucla. However, in repo insert command, the repo will fetch one data just like standard interest selectors.
116 38 Shuo Chen
117 51 Shuo Chen
Repo command supports parts of standard NDN interests including MinSuffixComponents, MaxSuffixComponents, PublisherPublicKeyLocator, Exclude, ChildSelector. If command contains other selectors, repo will ignore these not supported selectors. In addition, selectors are just supported in delete command. If other commands contains selectors, repo will ignore selectors when processing these commands.
118 38 Shuo Chen
119
The form of selectors is as follows:
120
121
    Selectors             ::= SELECTORS-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
122
                               MinSuffixComponents?
123
                               MaxSuffixComponents?
124
                               PublisherPublicKeyLocator?
125 1 Shuo Chen
                               Exclude?
126 51 Shuo Chen
                               ChildSelector?
127 38 Shuo Chen
    
128
    MinSuffixComponents   ::= MIN-SUFFIX-COMPONENTS-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
129
                               nonNegativeInteger
130
131
    MaxSuffixComponents   ::= MAX-SUFFIX-COMPONENTS-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
132
                               nonNegativeInteger
133
134
    PublisherPublicKeyLocator ::= KeyLocator
135
    
136
    Exclude               ::= EXCLUDE-TYPE TLV-LENGTH Any? (NameComponent (Any)?)+
137 1 Shuo Chen
    Any                   ::= ANY-TYPE TLV-LENGTH(=0)
138 51 Shuo Chen
139
    ChildSelector         ::= CHILD-SELECTOR-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
140
                               nonNegativeInteger
141 46 Shuo Chen
142
#### StartBlockId, EndBlockId
143 38 Shuo Chen
144 54 Shuo Chen
StartBlockId and EndBlockId are used to process segmented data. StartBlockId indicate the first segment number and EndBlockId indicate the last segment number. Repo will process segment data whose segment id between StartBlockId and EndBlockId. If StartBlockId is missing, the first segment id the repo process is 0; If EndBlockId is missing, this scenario is described in specific process in Repo Insertion Command section and Repo Deletion Command section.
145 62 Shuo Chen
146 67 Shuo Chen
#### Conflicts of Selectors and StartBlockId, EndBlockId
147
148
Repo cannot process command with both selectors and StartBlockId, EndBlockId in RepoCommandParameter. If the RepoCommandParameter carries both, repo will ignore this command interest and return with error code of 405.
149
150 62 Shuo Chen
#### ProcessId
151 53 Shuo Chen
152 63 Shuo Chen
ProcessId is used by insertion and deletion check command to indicate specific insertion and deletion process. The ProcessId is fetched by repo command response of insertion and deletion command.
153
154 30 Shuo Chen
## Repo Command Response
155 1 Shuo Chen
156 30 Shuo Chen
Repo command response is the response data packet of repo command interest. The response contains statuscode to indicate the status of command process and other information. A TLV-encoded block called ``RepoCommandResponse`` is encoded in content of the data packet.
157 1 Shuo Chen
158 30 Shuo Chen
    RepoCommandResponse   ::= INSERTSTATUS-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
159 61 Shuo Chen
                               ProcessId?

                               StartBlockId?
162
                               EndBlockId?
163
                               InsertNum?
164 30 Shuo Chen
                               DeleteNum?
165 1 Shuo Chen
166 61 Shuo Chen
    ProcessId            ::= PROCESSID-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
167 55 Shuo Chen
                                nonNegativeInteger 
168
    
169 1 Shuo Chen
    StatusCode            ::= STATUSCODE-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
170
                                nonNegativeInteger    
171
172
    StartBlockId          ::= STARTBLOCKID-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
173
                                nonNegativeInteger
174
    
175
    EndBlockId            ::= ENDBLOCKID-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
176
                                nonNegativeInteger
177 17 Shuo Chen
178
    InsertNum             ::= INSERTNUM-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
179
                                nonNegativeInteger
180
181 30 Shuo Chen
    DeleteNum             ::= DELETENUM-TYPE TLV-LENGTH
182
                                nonNegativeInteger
183 17 Shuo Chen
184 61 Shuo Chen
### ProcessId
185
ProcessId is a random number generated by repo to indicate the number of the command process. Client could use this ProcessId to check the status of specific command.
186 59 Shuo Chen
187
### StatusCode
188
189 64 Shuo Chen
StatusCode indicates the status of repo command process. The statuscodes of insert and deletion command are described in following insertion and deletion specification.
190
191 59 Shuo Chen
### StartBlockId, EndBlockId
192
193 65 Shuo Chen
StartBlockId and EndBlockId are the same as those of RepoCommandParameter. If either of those in RepoCommandParameter is missing, repo will set them as the Id known for now. For example, if StartBlockId is missing in RepoCommandParameter, StartBlockId in response will be set 0. If EndBlockId is missing in RepoCommandParameter, EndBlockId will be set null untill Repo get FinalBlockId in data packet. If FinalBlockId in returned data packet is less than EndBlockId, the EndBlockId will be set FinalBlockId.
194
195 59 Shuo Chen
### InsertNum, DeleteNum
196 66 Shuo Chen
InsertNum is used in reponse of insertion status check to indicate how many data packets have been successfully inserted into the repo. DeleteNum is used in response of deletion command and deletion check command. DeleteNum indicates how many data packets have been successfully inserted from repo.
197 59 Shuo Chen
198 58 Shuo Chen
## Repo Trust Model
199 57 Shuo Chen
200
The trust model of repo depends on people who deploy the repo service, such as PKI. Repo can specify their own verification policies, and data consumers can specify their own trust anchors. The NDN [FAQ](http://named-data.net/project/faq/#How_does_NDN8217s_8220trust_management8221_work) shows how NDN trust managment works.
201
202 30 Shuo Chen
## Repo Insertion Specification
203
204
Insertion specification is for some client and application to insert data objects into certain NDN repo. A command interest as insertion command will be sent to the repo. This command interest is a signed interest and will be validated with access control policy defined by the repo. When the interested is validated and name of the data is not existed in the repo. The repository will reponse with a data object containing OK status and start to send the interest to fetch the data to insert.
205
206
Segmented data insertion is also supported in the insertion protocol. Segmantation info is defined as a TLV-encoded SegmantationInfo block. If the content is segmented, the final segment id will be encoded in this block.
207
208
### Insertion command interest semantics
209
210
The name semantics is follows the format of the repo command. The <command verb> is defined as ``insert``.
211
For example, for ``<name of repo>`` as ``/ucla/cs/repo``, the following is an example:
212 1 Shuo Chen
213 31 Shuo Chen
    /ucla/cs/repo/insert/<RepoCommandParameters>/<timestamp>/<random-value>/<SignatureInfo>/<SignatureValue>
214 30 Shuo Chen
215
### Insertion status check
216
217
During the insertion progress, the requester could send insertion status check command to check the status of the insertion progress. This status check command is also signed interest. The semantics of insertion status check command is shown as follows:
218
219
<command verb> equals to ``insert check``. For example:
220 1 Shuo Chen
221 32 Shuo Chen
    /ucla/cs/repo/insert check/<RepoCommandParameters>/<timestamp>/<random-value>/<SignatureInfo>/<SignatureValue>
222 30 Shuo Chen
223 40 Shuo Chen
### Insert and Insert check command seletors
224
225
Selectors are not supported in these commands. Repo will ignore selectors when processing these commands.
226
227 30 Shuo Chen
### Insertatation status response
228
229
This insert status data object could be the response data object of both insert command and insert check command. It will follow the format of repo command response.
230
231
StatusCode indicates the status of insertion. InsertNum represents how many data has been intersted into the repo. StartBlockId and EndBlockId is the start and end segment id of data inserted. InsertNum is the how many data segments have been inserted.
232
233
For insert cammand, status code will be set according to definition below, StartBlockId and EndBlockId will be set according to the insert command.
234
235
For insert check command, status code will be set according to definition below, StartBlockId and EndBlockId will be set according to the insert command, insertnum will be set according to insertion progress.
236

## Repo Deletion Specification
361
362
Deletion of one content object or content objects under certain prefix are both supported in repo specification. Selectors are used to select multiple content objects. These selectors are different from conventional [selectors](http://named-data.net/doc/ndn-tlv/interest.html#selectors) of interest packet. The conventional selecors of interest would select one data packet of repo. Selecors of delete command will return any data packets which applies for these selectors.
363
364
### Deletion command interest semantics
365
366 1 Shuo Chen
Deletion command interest follows the format of the repo command. For example:
367 19 Shuo Chen
368
    /ucla/cs/repo/delete/<RepoCommandParameters>/<timestamp>/<random-value>/<SignatureInfo>/<SignatureValue>
369
370
### Deletion Command Selectors
371
372 39 Shuo Chen
Deletion command selectors follows the [repo command selectors](http://redmine.named-data.net/projects/repo-ng/wiki/Repo_Protocol_Specification#Repo-Command-Selectors).
373
374 19 Shuo Chen
### Deletion status check
375
376 30 Shuo Chen
During the deletion progress, the requester could send deletion status check command to check the status of the deletion progress. This status check command is also signed interest. The semantics of deletion status check command follows the format of repo command. ``<command verb>`` equals to ``delete check``. For example:
377 1 Shuo Chen
378 34 Shuo Chen
    /ucla/cs/repo/delete/<RepoCommandParameters>/<timestamp>/<random-value>/<SignatureInfo>/<SignatureValue>
379 19 Shuo Chen
380 41 Shuo Chen
### Deletion Check Command Selectors
381
382
Selectors are not supported. Repo will ignore selectors when processing deletion status check command.
383
384 19 Shuo Chen
### Deletion status response
385
386 30 Shuo Chen
This delete status data object could be the response data packet of both delete command and delete check command. The name of data packet is the same as that of command.The deletion status is enocoded as a TLV echoded block in content block in data packet. The TLV block format follows RepoCommandResponse.
387 19 Shuo Chen
388
StatusCode indicates the status of deletion. DeleteSum is the sum of the deletion. DeleteNum represents how many data has been deleted.
389
390
StatusCode Definition:
391
392
``StatusCode`` | Description
393
-------------- | --------------------------------------
394
``200``        | All the data has been deleted
395
``300``        | This deletion is in progress
396
``401``        | This deletion check is invalidated
397
``404``        | No such this deletion is in progress
398 30 Shuo Chen
``505``        | status check command is not supported
399 19 Shuo Chen
400 17 Shuo Chen
### Protocol process
401 1 Shuo Chen
402 21 Alex Afanasyev
1. start to authorize the command; if authorization does not fail immediately, go to step 3
403 1 Shuo Chen
404 21 Alex Afanasyev
2. send a negative response indicating authorization failure, and abort these steps
405 1 Shuo Chen
406 21 Alex Afanasyev
3. check whether selectors are presented. If selectors are presented, go to step 4, or select the data packet of the exact name of command. If some data is selected, go to step 6. If no data selected, go to step 5
407 1 Shuo Chen
408 21 Alex Afanasyev
4. select all the data packets that comforms to data name of the command and the selectors. If some data packets are selected, go to step 6. Or no data selected, go to step 5.
409 1 Shuo Chen
410 21 Alex Afanasyev
5. send a negative response and abort the delete transaction.
411 1 Shuo Chen
412 21 Alex Afanasyev
6. wait for authorization completion
413 1 Shuo Chen
414 21 Alex Afanasyev
7. if authorization fails, go to step 2
415 1 Shuo Chen
416 21 Alex Afanasyev
8. start to delete the selected data. If deletion success, return positive reponse, or return negative response and abort the deletion.
417 19 Shuo Chen
418 21 Alex Afanasyev
Implementation MAY publish a notification of status regarding delete progress. The process of status check is as follows:
419 19 Shuo Chen
420 21 Alex Afanasyev
1. start to authorize the delete status command
421 19 Shuo Chen
422 21 Alex Afanasyev
2. send a negative response indicating authorization failure, and abort these steps
423 19 Shuo Chen
424 21 Alex Afanasyev
3. start to check the progress of the delete with the data name in the command. If no such progress is found, go to 4. or go to 5.
425 19 Shuo Chen
426 21 Alex Afanasyev
4. reponse status with status code of 404
427
428
5. ckeck te status of delete. return the status data content
