This change adds new module callbacks that can override the default password based authentication associated with ACLs. With this, Modules can register auth callbacks through which they can implement their own Authentication logic. When `AUTH` and `HELLO AUTH ...` commands are used, Module based authentication is attempted and then normal password based authentication is attempted if needed.
The new Module APIs added in this PR are - `RM_RegisterCustomAuthCallback` and `RM_BlockClientOnAuth` and `RedisModule_ACLAddLogEntryByUserName `.
Module based authentication will be attempted for all Redis users (created through the ACL SETUSER cmd or through Module APIs) even if the Redis user does not exist at the time of the command. This gives a chance for the Module to create the RedisModule user and then authenticate via the RedisModule API - from the custom auth callback.
For the AUTH command, we will support both variations - `AUTH <username> <password>` and `AUTH <password>`. In case of the `AUTH <password>` variation, the custom auth callbacks are triggered with “default” as the username and password as what is provided.
### RedisModule_RegisterCustomAuthCallback
```
void RM_RegisterCustomAuthCallback(RedisModuleCtx *ctx, RedisModuleCustomAuthCallback cb) {
```
This API registers a callback to execute to prior to normal password based authentication. Multiple callbacks can be registered across different modules. These callbacks are responsible for either handling the authentication, each authenticating the user or explicitly denying, or deferring it to other authentication mechanisms. Callbacks are triggered in the order they were registered. When a Module is unloaded, all the auth callbacks registered by it are unregistered. The callbacks are attempted, in the order of most recently registered callbacks, when the AUTH/HELLO (with AUTH field is provided) commands are called. The callbacks will be called with a module context along with a username and a password, and are expected to take one of the following actions:
(1) Authenticate - Use the RM_Authenticate* API successfully and return `REDISMODULE_AUTH_HANDLED`. This will immediately end the auth chain as successful and add the OK reply.
(2) Block a client on authentication - Use the `RM_BlockClientOnAuth` API and return `REDISMODULE_AUTH_HANDLED`. Here, the client will be blocked until the `RM_UnblockClient `API is used which will trigger the auth reply callback (provided earlier through the `RM_BlockClientOnAuth`). In this reply callback, the Module should authenticate, deny or skip handling authentication.
(3) Deny Authentication - Return `REDISMODULE_AUTH_HANDLED` without authenticating or blocking the client. Optionally, `err` can be set to a custom error message. This will immediately end the auth chain as unsuccessful and add the ERR reply.
(4) Skip handling Authentication - Return `REDISMODULE_AUTH_NOT_HANDLED` without blocking the client. This will allow the engine to attempt the next custom auth callback.
If none of the callbacks authenticate or deny auth, then password based auth is attempted and will authenticate or add failure logs and reply to the clients accordingly.
### RedisModule_BlockClientOnAuth
```
RedisModuleBlockedClient *RM_BlockClientOnAuth(RedisModuleCtx *ctx, RedisModuleCustomAuthCallback reply_callback,
void (*free_privdata)(RedisModuleCtx*,void*))
```
This API can only be used from a Module from the custom auth callback. If a client is not in the middle of custom module based authentication, ERROR is returned. Otherwise, the client is blocked and the `RedisModule_BlockedClient` is returned similar to the `RedisModule_BlockClient` API.
### RedisModule_ACLAddLogEntryByUserName
```
int RM_ACLAddLogEntryByUserName(RedisModuleCtx *ctx, RedisModuleString *username, RedisModuleString *object, RedisModuleACLLogEntryReason reason)
```
Adds a new entry in the ACL log with the `username` RedisModuleString provided. This simplifies the Module usage because now, developers do not need to create a Module User just to add an error ACL Log entry. Aside from accepting username (RedisModuleString) instead of a RedisModuleUser, it is the same as the existing `RedisModule_ACLAddLogEntry` API.
### Breaking changes
- HELLO command - Clients can now only set the client name and RESP protocol from the `HELLO` command if they are authenticated. Also, we now finish command arg validation first and return early with a ERR reply if any arg is invalid. This is to avoid mutating the client name / RESP from a command that would have failed on invalid arguments.
### Notable behaviors
- Module unblocking - Now, we will not allow Modules to block the client from inside the context of a reply callback (triggered from the Module unblock flow `moduleHandleBlockedClients`).

Redis Test Suite
The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating
local redis-server instances, inspecting process state, log files, etc.
The test suite also supports execution against an external server, which is
enabled using the --host and --port parameters. When executing against an
external server, tests tagged external:skip are skipped.
There are additional runtime options that can further adjust the test suite to match different external server configurations:
| Option | Impact |
|---|---|
--singledb |
Only use database 0, don't assume others are supported. |
--ignore-encoding |
Skip all checks for specific encoding. |
--ignore-digest |
Skip key value digest validations. |
--cluster-mode |
Run in strict Redis Cluster compatibility mode. |
--large-memory |
Enables tests that consume more than 100mb |
Tags
Tags are applied to tests to classify them according to the subsystem they test, but also to indicate compatibility with different run modes and required capabilities.
Tags can be applied in different context levels:
start_servercontexttagscontext that bundles several tests together- A single test context.
The following compatibility and capability tags are currently used:
| Tag | Indicates |
|---|---|
external:skip |
Not compatible with external servers. |
cluster:skip |
Not compatible with --cluster-mode. |
large-memory |
Test that requires more than 100mb |
tls:skip |
Not compatible with --tls. |
needs:repl |
Uses replication and needs to be able to SYNC from server. |
needs:debug |
Uses the DEBUG command or other debugging focused commands (like OBJECT REFCOUNT). |
needs:pfdebug |
Uses the PFDEBUG command. |
needs:config-maxmemory |
Uses CONFIG SET to manipulate memory limit, eviction policies, etc. |
needs:config-resetstat |
Uses CONFIG RESETSTAT to reset statistics. |
needs:reset |
Uses RESET to reset client connections. |
needs:save |
Uses SAVE or BGSAVE to create an RDB file. |
When using an external server (--host and --port), filtering using the
external:skip tags is done automatically.
When using --cluster-mode, filtering using the cluster:skip tag is done
automatically.
When not using --large-memory, filtering using the largemem:skip tag is done
automatically.
In addition, it is possible to specify additional configuration. For example, to
run tests on a server that does not permit SYNC use:
./runtest --host <host> --port <port> --tags -needs:repl
