CBOR (Concise Binary Object Representation) Maint. and Ext. C. Bormann Internet-Draft Universität Bremen TZI Intended status: Standards Track M. Matejka Expires: 4 September 2025 CZ.NIC 3 March 2025 Stand-in Tags for YANG-CBOR draft-bormann-cbor-yang-standin-01 Abstract YANG (RFC 7950) is a data modeling language used to model configuration data, state data, parameters and results of Remote Procedure Call (RPC) operations or actions, and notifications. YANG-CBOR (RFC 9254) defines encoding rules for YANG in the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) (RFC 8949). While the overall structure of YANG-CBOR is encoded in an efficient, binary format, YANG itself has its roots in XML and therefore traditionally encodes some information such as date/times and IP addresses/prefixes in a verbose text form. This document defines how to use existing CBOR tags for this kind of information in YANG-CBOR as a "stand-in" for the text-based information that would be found in the original form of YANG-CBOR.

Introduction (see abstract) 2. Conventions and Definitions The terminology of [RFC9254] applies. Legacy representation: The (often text-based) representation for a YANG data item as used in YANG-XML, YANG-JSON, and (unchanged) YANG-CBOR. Stand-in tag: A CBOR tag that can supply the information that is equivalent to a legacy representation in a more efficient format (e.g., using binary data). Encoder: The party which generates (sends) CBOR data described by YANG. Intermediate Encoder: An encoder which isn't the original author of the data, converting it from legacy representation. Aggressive Intermediate Encoder: An intermediate encoder that might choose to discard some information of a legacy representation in order to be able to use a stand-in tag. Such a choice may be based on knowledge of the Decoder's handling of such information (e.g, to accommodate intolerant decoders), or it may be a general characteristic of the service provided by the intermediate encoder (e.g., in order to serve as a legacy-eschewing encoder). Legacy-Eschewing Encoder: An encoder that does not generate legacy representations in places where a stand-in tag might instead be used. An intermediate encoder may need to be aggressive to achieve this. Decoder: The party which receives and parses CBOR data described by YANG. Intolerant Decoder: A decoder that does not accept legacy representations in places where a stand-in tag might instead be used. Such a decoder is designed to interoperate only with an legacy-eschewing encoder. Bormann & Matejka Expires 4 September 2025 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Stand-in Tags for YANG-CBOR March 2025 Intermediate Decoder: A decoder which isn't the final recipient of the data, converting it to legacy representation. Data Transfer: A series of actions, generally beginning by data origination, encoding, continuing by optional intermediate transcoding, sending and receiving, and finally decoding and consuming. Round Trip: Part of a data transfer between an encoder generating CBOR data with stand-in tags and a decoder parsing the data. Legacy Round Trip: A Round Trip where the encoder is an intermediate encoder or the decoder is an intermediate decoder and any of these converts from or to the legacy representation. Unambiguous Round Trip: A Legacy Round Trip that provides exactly the same legacy representation (not just semantically equivalent). The stand-in tag is also said to "unambiguously stand in" for the legacy representation. The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [BCP14] (RFC2119) (RFC8174) when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. 3. Stand-In Tags This document defines two sets of stand-in tags. Where information starts out in a legacy representation, these tags are only used when an Unambiguous Round Trip can be achieved. 3.1. ietf-yang-types: Tag 1 (Date/Time) and Tag 100 (Date) Section 3 of [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] defines the following types in ietf-yang-types: Bormann & Matejka Expires 4 September 2025 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Stand-in Tags for YANG-CBOR March 2025 +===============+======+===============================+==========+ | YANG type |base | specification | stand-in | | |type | | | +===============+======+===============================+==========+ | date-and-time |string| [RFC6021] | tag 1 | +---------------+------+-------------------------------+----------+ | date |string| [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] | (none) | +---------------+------+-------------------------------+----------+ | date-no-zone |string| [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] | tag 100 | +---------------+------+-------------------------------+----------+ Table 1: Legacy date and date/time representations in ietf- yang-types Tag 1 (Section 3.4.2 of RFC 8949 [STD94]) can unambiguously stand in for all date-and-time values that: * do not specify a time zone (note that [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] uses the legacy "-00:00" format for time-zone-free date-times) * are not an inserted leap second (23:59:60 or 23:59:61) * do not have trailing zeroes in the fractional part of the seconds. * do not have fractional parts of the seconds with a precision that cannot be represented in floating-point tag content in a tag 1. All other date-and-time values stay in legacy representation. Tag 1 uses an integer tag content for all date-and-time values without fractional seconds and a floating-point tag content for values that have fractional seconds given. Tag 100 [RFC8943] can unambiguously stand in for all date-no-zone values. 3.2. ietf-yang-types: Tags 37 (UUID) and CPA113 (hex-string) Section 3 of [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] defines the following types in ietf-yang-types: Bormann & Matejka Expires 4 September 2025 [Page 5] Internet-Draft Stand-in Tags for YANG-CBOR March 2025 +==============+========+===============================+==========+ | YANG type | base | specification | stand-in | | | type | | | +==============+========+===============================+==========+ | uuid | string | [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] | tag 37 | +--------------+--------+-------------------------------+----------+ | hex-string | string | [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] | tag | | | | | CPA113 | +--------------+--------+-------------------------------+----------+ | mac-address | string | [RFC6021] | tag | | | | | CPA113 | +--------------+--------+-------------------------------+----------+ | phys-address | string | [RFC6021] | tag | | | | | CPA113 | +--------------+--------+-------------------------------+----------+ Table 2: Legacy UUID and colon-separated hexadecimal representations in ietf- yang-types These types are hexadecimal representations of byte strings, adorned in various ways. uuid stands for a 16-byte byte string (Section 4 of [RFC9562]), represented in hexadecimal with ASCII minus/hyphen characters added in specific positions. Tag 37 (see also Section 7 of [I-D.bormann-cbor-notable-tags]) can be used as a binary stand-in for this adorned hexadecimal representation. According to the description of uuid in Section 3 of [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis], "the canonical representation uses lowercase characters". For consistency with this specification, an intermediate decoder of a tag 37 stand-in MUST use lowercase characters in the uuid hex string generated. hex-string, and the similar, but more specific types mac-address and phys-address, stand for byte strings in various lengths (exactly 6 bytes for mac-address, variable-length for the others), represented in hexadecimal with ASCII colon characters added between the representations of each of the bytes. This specification defines tag number CPA113 Section 7.1 to be an additional "Expected Later Encoding" tag (similar to tag 23, see Section 3.4.5.2 of RFC 8949 [STD94]), except that the expected encoding of CPA113 includes colons and uses lowercase hex digits. The following example implementation of the transformation in a decoder shows the use of lowercase hex characters (%02x as opposed to %02X) and the insertion of colon characters between the hex- represented bytes: Bormann & Matejka Expires 4 September 2025 [Page 6] Internet-Draft Stand-in Tags for YANG-CBOR March 2025 def tag_cpa113_to_legacy(s) s.bytes.map{|x| "%02x" % x}.join(":") end Note: Section 2.4 of [RFC9542] defines tag number 48 for MAC addresses. This could be used in place of tag CPA113, but only for MAC addresses, not for other byte strings of a similar form. This specification therefore requests IANA to assign a new CBOR tag that can be used as a stand-in for all instances of colon-separated text strings of hexadecimally represented bytes, as shown in Table 2. Note Related tags have not been defined so far for tag 21 or 22 defined alongside tag 23, as YANG has a base type "binary" that is encoded in base64 classic in YANG-XML and YANG-JSON, but already encoded in a binary byte string in YANG-CBOR; use cases that might actually use base type "string" for base64-encoded data in YANG have not been considered. However, tag 21 or 22 could be used as stand-in tags if that is useful for some specific YANG model not considered here. // RFC-Editor: This document uses the CPA (code point allocation) // convention described in [I-D.bormann-cbor-draft-numbers]. For // each usage of the term "CPA", please remove the prefix "CPA" from // the indicated value and replace the residue with the value // assigned by IANA; perform an analogous substitution for all other // occurrences of the prefix "CPA" in the document. Finally, please // remove this note. 3.3. ietf-inet-types: Tags 54 and 52 (IP addresses and prefixes) Section 4 of [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] defines in ietf-inet- types: +=============+==============+===============================+======+ |YANG type | base type | specification |stand-| | | | |in | +=============+==============+===============================+======+ |ip-address | union | [RFC6021] |(see | | | | |union)| +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ipv6-address | string | [RFC6021] |tag 54| +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ipv4-address | string | [RFC6021] |tag 52| +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ip-address- | union | RFC 6991 |(see | |no-zone | | |union)| +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ Bormann & Matejka Expires 4 September 2025 [Page 7] Internet-Draft Stand-in Tags for YANG-CBOR March 2025 |ipv6- | ipv6-address | RFC 6991 |tag 54| |address-no- | | | | |zone | | | | +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ipv4- | ipv4-address | RFC 6991 |tag 52| |address-no- | | | | |zone | | | | +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ip-address- | union | [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] |(see | |link-local | | |union)| +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ipv6- | ipv6-address | [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] |tag 54| |address- | | | | |link-local | | | | +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ipv4- | ipv4-address | [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] |tag 52| |address- | | | | |link-local | | | | +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ip-prefix | union | [RFC6021] |(see | | | | |union)| +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ipv6-prefix | string | [RFC6021] |tag 54| +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ipv4-prefix | string | [RFC6021] |tag 52| +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ip-address- | union | [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] |(see | |and-prefix | | |union)| +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ipv6- | string | [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] |tag 54| |address-and- | | | | |prefix | | | | +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ |ipv4- | string | [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] |tag 52| |address-and- | | | | |prefix | | | | +-------------+--------------+-------------------------------+------+ Table 3: Legacy representations in ietf-yang-types An intermediate encoder MAY normalize IPv6 addresses and prefixes that do not comply with [RFC5952] but can be converted into the stand-in representation. For example, IPv6 address written as 2001:db8:: is the same as 2001:0db8::0:0 and both would be converted to 54(h'20010db8000000000000000000000000'), anyway only the first one complies with [RFC5952]. The encoder MAY refuse to convert the latter one. Bormann & Matejka Expires 4 September 2025 [Page 8] Internet-Draft Stand-in Tags for YANG-CBOR March 2025 If the schema specifies ip-prefix, an intermediate encoder MAY normalize prefixes with non-zero bits after the prefix end. For example, if the legacy representation of ipv6-prefix is 2001:db8:1::/40, the encoder may either refuse it as malformed or convert it to 2001:db8::/40 and represent as 54([40, h'20010db8']). The encoder implementation should be clear about which normalizations are employed and how. Adapted examples from [RFC9164]: Stand-in representation of IPv6 address 2001:db8:1234:deed:beef:cafe:face:feed is 54(h'20010db81234deedbeefcafefacefeed').

CBOR encoding of stand-in (27 bytes): Bormann & Matejka Expires 4 September 2025 [Page 9] Internet-Draft Stand-in Tags for YANG-CBOR March 2025 D8 36 # tag(54) 83 # array(3) 50 # bytes(16) FE8000000000020202FFFFFFFE030303 18 40 # unsigned(64) 44 # bytes(4) 65746830 # "eth0" CBOR encoding of legacy representation (40 bytes): 78 26 # text(38) 666538303A3A303230323A303266663A666666663A666530333A303330332F36342565746830 TO DO: adapt more examples from [RFC9164] TO DO: Check how the unions in [RFC6021] and [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] interact with this. E.g., the union ip-address needs to be parsed to decide between tag 54 and tag 52. 3.4. Union handling When the schema specifies a union data type for a node, there are additional requirements on the encoder and decoder. An encoder which is fully aware of data semantics MUST use the appropriate data type, even though it isn't formally specified by the schema. If an intermediate encoder doesn't fully understand the data semantics, it needs to find out which type the data actually is to choose the right stand-in. If more types are possible, it MAY choose any of these which allow for an Unambiguous Round Trip, otherwise it SHOULD keep the legacy representation. If a decoder receives data for a union-typed node, it MUST accept any data type of the union, even though it may violate additional constraints outside the schema. 4. Using Stand-In Tags 4.1. Defining Stand-In Usage in Schema Requiring modifications to a YANG model in order to use it with stand-in tags would pose significant deployment hurdles to using stand-in tags. Bormann & Matejka Expires 4 September 2025 [Page 10] Internet-Draft Stand-in Tags for YANG-CBOR March 2025 A YANG model may want to restrict the information content in such a way that stand-in tags can always be used, e.g., by using date-no- zone in place of date where that is applicable, or by excluding features of a YANG data type that cannot be represented in a stand- in-tag. ISSUE: Should this document define such restricted types, e.g.: typedef efficient-date-and-time { type date-and-time { pattern '.*-00:00' } description "The efficient-date-and-time type is a profile of the date-and-time that is intended to always enable using a stand-in tag as per ((this document)), e.g., by not expressing a time-zone-offset. Not all restrictions that make this possible are expressed in the above YANG string pattern."; } (This particular example is additionally problematic since the usual way to indicate the absence of time zone information in ISO 8601 date-times is using Z as the time zone indicated, not -00:00 as is required by Section 3 of [I-D.ietf-netmod-rfc6991-bis] but not allowed by ISO 8601; see [RFC9557] for additional discussion of this.) // Note that this paragraph does not reference ISO 8601 because that // is complicated and best done by consulting [RFC9557]. 4.2. Original stand-ins The simplest situation is when no intermediate encoders and decoders are involved in the data transfer, therefore the round trip is not legacy. In this case, no conversions are involved and data is validated using the schema extension from the previous section. 4.3. Legacy Round Trip Producing a stand-in MUST be triggered by schema usage. Intermediate encoders MUST NOT encode stand-ins when no schema is available. It's generally not recommended to do a legacy round trip where both the encoder and decoder are converting from and to the legacy representation. Bormann & Matejka Expires 4 September 2025 [Page 11] Internet-Draft Stand-in Tags for YANG-CBOR March 2025 5. Negotiation Introducing stand-in tags in YANG-CBOR requires some form of consent between the producer and the consumer of YANG-CBOR information: * A producer that creates YANG-CBOR containing stand-in tags needs to know whether the consumer supports stand-in tags, and, possibly, which specific stand-in tags it supports. We speak about the _capability_ of a consumer to consume stand-in tags. A producer MUST NOT employ stand-in tags unless it knows about the capabilities of the consumer. A consumer SHOULD indicate its capabilities for consuming stand-in tags. * A consumer may not want to implement certain legacy text-based representations where more efficient (and easy to implement) stand-in tags are available, i.e., it may use an intolerant decoder. This places a _requirement_ on the producer to use a legacy-eschewing encoder (which therefore needs to have the _capability_ to produce YANG-CBOR where those stand-in tags are used, in place of legacy representations). Where the consumer employs an intolerant decoder, stand-in tags are _required_ by the consumer: for interoperating with a producer's encoder, this MUST be legacy-eschewing, i.e. it MUST NOT employ legacy representations. A consumer that has requirements for only receiving stand-in tags in place of legacy representations, MUST indicate this to the producer. ISSUE: Where do we put those two aspects of negotiation? * NETCONF negotiation * yang-library * media-type parameters * ? 6. Security Considerations TODO Security 7. IANA Considerations 7.1. New CBOR Tags In the registry "CBOR Tags" [IANA.cbor-tags], IANA is requested to assign the tag in Table 4.

ISSUE: Do we want to have a separate registry for stand-in tags? They already are CBOR tags and thus in the registry, but might get lost in the bulk of that (and are only identified as YANG-CBOR stand- in Tags in the specification). 7.3. media-type parameters ISSUE: Should the use of stand-in tags be mentioned in the various YANG-CBOR-based media types (as a media type parameter)? Compare how application/yang-data+cbor can use id=name/id=sid to indicate another encoding decision. 8. References 8.1. Normative References [BCP14] Best Current Practice 14, .
