# CSI RBD Plugin
|
|
|
|
The RBD CSI plugin is able to provision new RBD images and
|
|
attach and mount those to workloads.
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
CSI plugin can be compiled in a form of a binary file or in a form of a
|
|
Docker image. When compiled as a binary file, the result is stored in
|
|
`_output/` directory with the name `cephcsi`. When compiled as an image, it's
|
|
stored in the local Docker image store with name `cephcsi`.
|
|
|
|
Building binary:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make cephcsi
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Building Docker image:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make image-cephcsi
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
**Available command line arguments:**
|
|
|
|
| Option | Default value | Description |
|
|
|-----------------------|-----------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| `--endpoint` | `unix://tmp/csi.sock` | CSI endpoint, must be a UNIX socket |
|
|
| `--drivername` | `rbd.csi.ceph.com` | Name of the driver (Kubernetes: `provisioner` field in StorageClass must correspond to this value) |
|
|
| `--nodeid` | _empty_ | This node's ID |
|
|
| `--type` | _empty_ | Driver type `[rbd | cephfs]` If the driver type is set to `rbd` it will act as a `rbd plugin` or if it's set to `cephfs` will act as a `cephfs plugin` |
|
|
| `--instanceid` | "default" | Unique ID distinguishing this instance of Ceph CSI among other instances, when sharing Ceph clusters across CSI instances for provisioning |
|
|
| `--metadatastorage` | _empty_ | Points to where legacy (1.0.0 or older plugin versions) metadata about provisioned volumes are kept, as file or in as k8s configmap (`node` or `k8s_configmap` respectively) |
|
|
| `--pidlimit` | _0_ | Configure the PID limit in cgroups. The container runtime can restrict the number of processes/tasks which can cause problems while provisioning (or deleting) a large number of volumes. A value of `-1` configures the limit to the maximum, `0` does not configure limits at all. |
|
|
| `--metricsport` | `8080` | TCP port for liveness metrics requests |
|
|
| `--metricspath` | `"/metrics"` | Path of prometheus endpoint where metrics will be available |
|
|
| `--enablegrpcmetrics` | `false` | [Deprecated] Enable grpc metrics collection and start prometheus server |
|
|
| `--polltime` | `"60s"` | Time interval in between each poll |
|
|
| `--timeout` | `"3s"` | Probe timeout in seconds |
|
|
| `--histogramoption` | `0.5,2,6` | [Deprecated] Histogram option for grpc metrics, should be comma separated value (ex:= "0.5,2,6" where start=0.5 factor=2, count=6) |
|
|
| `--domainlabels` | _empty_ | Kubernetes node labels to use as CSI domain labels for topology aware provisioning, should be a comma separated value (ex:= "failure-domain/region,failure-domain/zone") |
|
|
|
|
**Available volume parameters:**
|
|
|
|
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|
|
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `clusterID` | yes | String representing a Ceph cluster, must be unique across all Ceph clusters in use for provisioning, cannot be greater than 36 bytes in length, and should remain immutable for the lifetime of the Ceph cluster in use |
|
|
| `pool` | yes | Ceph pool into which the RBD image shall be created |
|
|
| `dataPool` | no | Ceph pool used for the data of the RBD images. |
|
|
| `volumeNamePrefix` | no | Prefix to use for naming RBD volume images (defaults to `csi-vol-`). |
|
|
| `snapshotNamePrefix` | no | Prefix to use for naming RBD snapshot images (defaults to `csi-snap-`). |
|

|
|
| `encrypted` | no | disabled by default, use `"true"` to enable LUKS encryption on pvc and `"false"` to disable it. **Do not change for existing storageclasses** |
|
|
| `encryptionKMSID` | no | required if encryption is enabled and a kms is used to store passphrases |
|
|
|
|
**NOTE:** An accompanying CSI configuration file, needs to be provided to the
|
|
running pods. Refer to [Creating CSI configuration](../examples/README.md#creating-csi-configuration)
|
|
for more information.
|
|
|
|
**NOTE:** A suggested way to populate and retain uniqueness of the clusterID is
|
|
to use the output of `ceph fsid` of the Ceph cluster to be used for
|
|
provisioning.
|
|
|
|
**Required secrets:**
|
|
|
|
User credentials, with required access to the pool being used in the storage class,
|
|
is required for provisioning new RBD images.
|
|
|
|
## Deployment with Kubernetes
|
|
|
|
Requires Kubernetes 1.14+
|
|
|
|
Use the [rbd templates](../deploy/rbd/kubernetes)
|
|
|
|
Your Kubernetes cluster must allow privileged pods (i.e. `--allow-privileged`
|
|
flag must be set to true for both the API server and the kubelet). Moreover, as
|
|
stated in the [mount propagation
|
|
docs](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/volumes/#mount-propagation),
|
|
the Docker daemon of the cluster nodes must allow shared mounts.
|
|
|
|
YAML manifests are located in `deploy/rbd/kubernetes`.
|
|
|
|
**Deploy RBACs for sidecar containers and node plugins:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
kubectl create -f csi-provisioner-rbac.yaml
|
|
kubectl create -f csi-nodeplugin-rbac.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Those manifests deploy service accounts, cluster roles and cluster role
|
|
bindings. These are shared for both RBD and CephFS CSI plugins, as they require
|
|
the same permissions.
|
|
|
|
**Deploy PodSecurityPolicy resources for sidecar containers and node plugins:**
|
|
|
|
**NOTE:** These manifests are required only if [PodSecurityPolicy](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/admission-controllers/#podsecuritypolicy)
|
|
admission controller is active on your cluster.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
kubectl create -f csi-provisioner-psp.yaml
|
|
kubectl create -f csi-nodeplugin-psp.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Deploy ConfigMap for CSI plugins:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
kubectl create -f csi-config-map.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The config map deploys an empty CSI configuration that is mounted as a volume
|
|
within the Ceph CSI plugin pods. To add a specific Ceph clusters configuration
|
|
details, refer to [Creating CSI configuration for RBD based
|
|
provisioning](../examples/README.md#creating-csi-configuration-for-rbd-based-provisioning)
|
|
for more information.
|
|
|
|
**Deploy CSI sidecar containers:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
kubectl create -f csi-rbdplugin-provisioner.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Deploys stateful set of provision which includes external-provisioner
|
|
,external-attacher,csi-snapshotter sidecar containers and CSI RBD plugin.
|
|
|
|
**Deploy RBD CSI driver:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
kubectl create -f csi-rbdplugin.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Deploys a daemon set with two containers: CSI node-driver-registrar and the CSI
|
|
RBD driver.
|
|
|
|
## Verifying the deployment in Kubernetes
|
|
|
|
After successfully completing the steps above, you should see output similar to this:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ kubectl get all
|
|
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
|
pod/csi-rbdplugin-fptqr 3/3 Running 0 21s
|
|
pod/csi-rbdplugin-provisioner-0 5/5 Running 0 22s
|
|
|
|
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
|
|
service/csi-rbdplugin-provisioner ClusterIP 10.104.2.130 <none> 8080/TCP 23s
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once the CSI plugin configuration is updated with details from a Ceph cluster of
|
|
choice, you can try deploying a demo pod from examples/rbd using the
|
|
instructions [provided](../examples/README.md#deploying-the-storage-class) to
|
|
test the deployment further.
|
|
|
|
## Deployment with Helm
|
|
|
|
The same requirements from the Kubernetes section apply here, i.e. Kubernetes
|
|
version, privileged flag and shared mounts.
|
|
|
|
The Helm chart is located in `charts/ceph-csi-rbd`.
|
|
|
|
**Deploy Helm Chart:**
|
|
|
|
[See the Helm chart readme for installation instructions.](../charts/ceph-csi-rbd/README.md)
|
|
|
|
## Encryption for RBD volumes
|
|
|
|
> Enabling encryption on volumes created without encryption is **not supported**
|
|
>
|
|
> Enabling encryption for storage class that has PVs created without encryption
|
|
> is **not supported**
|
|
|
|
Volumes provisioned with Ceph RBD do not have encryption by default. It is
|
|
possible to encrypt them with ceph-csi by using LUKS encryption.
|
|
|
|
To enable encryption set `encrypted` option in storage class to `"true"` and
|
|
set encryption passphrase in kubernetes secrets under `encryptionPassphrase` key.
|
|
|
|
To use different passphrase you need to have different storage classes and point
|
|
to a different K8s secrets (different `csi.storage.k8s.io/node-stage-secret-name`
|
|
and `csi.storage.k8s.io/node-stage-secret-namespace`).
|
|
|
|
### Life-cycle for encrypted volumes
|
|
|
|
**Create volume**:
|
|
|
|
* create volume request received
|
|
* volume requested to be created in Ceph
|
|
* encrypted state "requiresEncryption" is saved in image-meta in Ceph
|
|
|
|
**Attach volume**:
|
|
|
|
* attach volume request received
|
|
* volume is attached to provisioner container
|
|
* on first time attachment
|
|
(no file system on the attached device, checked with blkid)
|
|
* new passphrase is generated and stored in selected KMS if KMS is in use
|
|
* device is encrypted with LUKS using a passphrase from K8s secrets
|
|
* image-meta updated to "encrypted" in Ceph
|
|
* passphrase is retrieved from selected KMS if KMS is in use
|
|
* device is open and device path is changed to use a mapper device
|
|
* mapper device is used instead of original one with usual workflow
|
|
|
|
**Detach volume**:
|
|
|
|
* mapper device closed and device path changed to original volume path
|
|
* volume is detached as usual
|
|
* passphrase removed from KMS if needed (with failures ignored)
|
|
|
|
### Encryption configuration
|
|
|
|
To encrypt rbd volumes with LUKS you need to set encryption passphrase in
|
|
secrets under `encryptionPassphrase` key and switch `encrypted` option in
|
|
StorageClass to `"true"`. This is not supported for storage classes that already
|
|
have PVs provisioned.
|
|
|
|
### Encryption KMS configuration
|
|
|
|
To further improve security robustness it is possible to use unique passphrases
|
|
generated for each volume and stored in a Key Management System (KMS). Currently
|
|
HashiCorp Vault is the only KMS supported.
|
|
|
|
To use Vault as KMS set `encryptionKMSID` to a unique identifier for Vault
|
|
configuration. You will also need to create vault configuration similar to the
|
|
[example](../examples/rbd/kms-config.yaml) and use same `encryptionKMSID`.
|
|
Configuration must include `encryptionKMSType: "vault"`. In order for ceph-csi
|
|
to be able to access the configuration you will need to have it mounted to
|
|
csi-rbdplugin containers in both daemonset (so kms client can be instantiated to
|
|
encrypt/decrypt volumes) and deployment pods (so kms client can be instantiated
|
|
to delete passphrase on volume delete) `ceph-csi-encryption-kms-config` config
|
|
map.
|
|
|
|
> Note: kms configuration must be a map of string values only
|
|
> (`map[string]string`) so for numerical and boolean values make sure to put
|
|
> quotes around.
|
|
|
|
#### Configuring HashiCorp Vault
|
|
|
|
Using Vault as KMS you need to configure Kubernetes authentication method as
|
|
described in [official
|
|
documentation](https://www.vaultproject.io/docs/auth/kubernetes.html).
|
|
|
|
If token reviewer is used, you will need to configure service account for
|
|
that also like in [example](../examples/rbd/csi-vaulttokenreview-rbac.yaml) to
|
|
be able to review jwt tokens.
|
|
|
|
Configure a role(s) for service accounts used for ceph-csi:
|
|
|
|
* provisioner service account (`rbd-csi-provisioner`) requires only **delete**
|
|
permissions to delete passphrases on pvc delete
|
|
* nodeplugin service account (`rbd-csi-nodeplugin`) requires **create** and
|
|
**read** permissions to save new keys and retrieve existing
|
|
|
|
### Encryption prerequisites
|
|
|
|
In order for encryption to work you need to make sure that `dm-crypt` kernel
|
|
module is enabled on the nodes running ceph-csi attachers.
|
|
|
|
If custom image is built for the rbd-plugin instance, make sure that it contains
|
|
`cryptsetup` tool installed to be able to use encryption.
