Terminology and Conventions 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 BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. This document uses terminology introduced in the YANG versioning requirements draft [I-D.verdt-netmod-yang-versioning-reqs]. Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 2] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 This document also makes of the following terminology introduced in the Network Management Datastore Architecture [RFC8342]: o datastore schema In addition, this document makes use of the following terminology: o bc: Used as an abbreviation for a backwards-compatible change. o nbc: Used as an abbreviation for a non-backwards-compatible change. o editorial change: A backwards-compatible change that does not change the YANG module semantics in any way. Note - the bc/nbc/editorial terminology should probably be defined and referenced from the YANG module versioning solution draft. 2. Introduction This document defines and describes the YANG [RFC7950] constructs that are used to define and use YANG packages. A YANG package is an organizational structure that groups a set of related YANG modules together into a consistent versioned definition. YANG packages can themselves refer to and reuse other package definitions. The draft consists of the following significant sections: A background section that describes some of the prior work in this area, both within IETF and the wider industry. An overview of the objectives for a YANG packaging solution, and also what work is out of scope for this document. The definition of YANG packages, how package definitions are constructed, and how they are used. How YANG instance data documents [I-D.ietf-netmod-yang-instance-file-format] are used to define particular YANG package instances. Augmentations to the YANG library [I-D.ietf-netconf-rfc7895bis] content published by servers to include YANG packaging related information. YANG modules the provide the definitions for YANG packages. Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 3] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 Non-normative examples of YANG package instances are provided in the appendicies. 3. Background on YANG packaging It has long been acknowledged within the IETF NETMOD community that network management using YANG requires a unit of organization and conformance that is broader in scope than individual YANG modules. 'The YANG Package Statement' [I-D.bierman-netmod-yang-package] proposed a YANG package mechanism based on new YANG language statements, where a YANG package is defined in a file similar to how YANG modules are defined, and would require enhancements to YANG compilers to understand the new statements used to define particular package instances. This document did not progress in the working group, although this may have been due to other higher priority concerns or resource constraints within the working group rather than due to consideration of the technical merits of the proposed approach. OpenConfig [openconfigsemver] describes an approach to versioning 'bundle releases' based on git tags. I.e. a set of modules, at particular versions, can be marked with the same release tag to indicate that they are known to interoperate together. The NETMOD WG in general, and the YANG versioning design team in particular, are exploring solutions to the YANG versioning requirements, [I-D.verdt-netmod-yang-versioning-reqs]. Solutions to the versioning requirements can be split into several distinct areas. One draft, TBD (draft-verdt-netmod-yang-semver), has a primary focus on YANG versioning scoped to individual modules. But an overall solution should also consider YANG versioning and conformance scoped to a server's datastore schema. YANG packages may help form part of the solution for versioning at the datastore schema level. 4. Objectives The main goals of YANG package definitions include, but are not restricted to: o To act as a simplified YANG conformance mechanism. Rather than conformance being performed against a set of individual YANG module revisions, conformance could also be more simply stated in terms of YANG packages, with a set modifications (e.g. additional modules, deviations, or features). o To allow YANG datastore schema to be specified in a more concise way rather than having to list all modules and revisions. YANG Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 4] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 package definitions can be defined in documents that can be referenced by a URI rather than requiring explicit lists of modules to be shared between client and server. Hence, a YANG package must contain sufficient information to allow a client or server to precisely construct the schema associated with the package. o To provide generic packaging related YANG grouping definitions for use in other YANG modules, as required. Protocol mechanisms of how clients could negotiate which packages or package versions are be used for client server communications are outside the scope of this document. However, the design of the YANG library augmentations for YANG packages are intended to keep open the possibility of such extensions in future work. Finally, the package definitions proposed by this document are intended to be relatively basic in their definition and the functionality that they support. As indsutry gains experience using YANG packages, the standard YANG mechanisms of updating, or augmenting, YANG modules could be used to extend the functionality supported by YANG packages. 5. Package description This document specifies an approach to defining YANG packages that is different to either of the approaches described in the background. The approach defined here is for a YANG package definition structure to be defined using existing YANG language statements without requiring extensions or new YANG statements. By making use of this structure, particular YANG package instances can be defined as YANG instance data documents [I-D.ietf-netmod-yang-instance-file-format] with well defined names and locations. The YANG sementic versioning scheme, described in draft-verdt-netmod- yang-semver (TBD), is used to version YANG packages using an equivalent scheme to how individual YANG modules version numbers are changed. YANG library is augmented to allow servers to report the packages that they implement and to associate those packages back to particular datastore schema. TODO - It would be helpful if the YANG instance data file format [I-D.ietf-netmod-yang-instance-file-format] could also reference a YANG packages to specify the schema associated with an instance data Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 5] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 document. This could either be defined in instance-file-format draft, or as a YANG augmentation as part of this draft. Each version of a YANG package defines: a set of YANG modules that are implemented at particular versions or revisions; a set of YANG modules that are import-only with particular versions or revisions; and a set of mandatory module features that implementations of the package MUST implement or otherwise deviate. 5.1. Package definition rules The following rules define how packages are defined: Every YANG package definition MUST be referentially complete. I.e. all import and include statements for all YANG modules included in a package MUST resolve to a module specified in the package itself, or an imported package. For a given package, each separate instance of the package MUST have a unique version number that follows the semantic versioning rules described in Section 5.2. A package MAY have a revision-date. Any package revision-dates MUST be unique for different package versions. For each module implemented by a package, only a single revision/ version MUST be implemented. The version/revision of a module listed in the package module list supercedes any version/revision of the module listed in a imported package module list. This allows a package to resolve any conflicting implemented module versions/revisions in imported packages. The replaces-revision leaf-list in the import-only-module list can be used to exclude duplicate revisions of import-only modules from imported packages. Otherwise, the import-only-modules for a package are the import-only-modules from all imported packages combined with any modules listed in the packages import-only- module list. Modules referenced by a package SHOULD specify the version of the module, both in the package definition and within the module definition itself. Modules referenced by a package MUST specify the revision date of the module, both in the package definition and within the module definition itself. Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 6] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 5.2. Package versioning Every YANG package must specify a YANG semantic version field that defines the particular version of the package. The rules for incrementing the YANG package version number are equivalent to the semantic versioning rules used to version individual YANG modules, defined in TBD (draft-verdt-netmod-yang- semver). The semantic versioning rules, as they apply to YANG packages, are defined using the following two step process: The first step is to determined whether the change to the YANG package is classified as a major, minor, or editorial based on the content that has changed in the package relative to the previous version. Where available, the semantic version number of the referenced elements in the package (imported packages or modules) can be used to help determine what type of change is being made. The formal rules are: If any of the referenced elements of the package (imported packages or modules) are changed in an nbc way, or if any imported package, module, or mandatory-feature is removed from the package definition, then the package has been updated in an nbc way. If none of the referenced elements of the package (imported packages, modules) are removed or changed in a nbc way, but some referenced elements are changed in a bc way, or new referenced elements or mandatory-features added, then the package is deemed to be updated in a bc way. If none of the referenced elements of the package (imported packages, modules) are added, removed, or changed in a nbc or bc way, but some referenced elements have editorial changes then the package is deemed to be updated in an editorial way. The second step, after it has been determined what type of version change is being made to the YANG package, is for the YANG semantic versioning rules to be applied to update the YANG package semantic version number. The formal rules are: If the package is being updated in a nbc way, then the package version "X.Y.Z[m|M]" SHOULD be updated to "X+1.0.0" unless that package version has already been defined with different content, in which case the package version "X.Y.Z+1M MUST be used instead. Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 7] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 If the package is being updated in a bc way, then the package version "X.Y.Z[m|M]" SHOULD be updated to "X.Y+1.0" unless that package version has already been defined with different content, in which case if the current package version is "X.Y.ZM" then it MUST be updated to "X.Y.Z+1M", or otherwise "X.Y.Z+1m". If the package is being updated in an editorial way, then the package version "X.Y.Z[m|M]" MUST be updated to "X.Y.Z+1[m|M], retaining the 'm|M' character if it is already present in the previous version.". Package YANG semantic version numbers begining with 0, i.e "0.X.Y" are regarded as beta definitions and need not follow the nbc rules, and the minor version number can be incremented instead. In all cases, the 3 number fields that comprise a YANG semantic version number associated with a YANG package MUST uniquely identify the contents of that YANG package. 5.3. Client server package conformance The YANG semantic versioning scheme used for YANG packages means that a client can determine the nature of changes between two package revisions. This means that a client is not restricted to working only with servers that advertise exactly the same version of package in YANG libary. Instead, reasonable clients should be able to interoperate with a server that supports a package version that is backwards compatible to what the client is designed for. For example, a client coded to support 'foo' package at version 1.0.0 should interoperate with a server implementing 'foo' package at version 1.3.5, because the YANG semantic versioning rules require that package version 1.3.5 is backwards compatible to version 1.0.0. This also has a relevance on servers that are capable of supporting version selection because they need not necessarily support every version of a YANG package to ensure good client compatibility. Choosing suitable minor versions within each major version number should generally be sufficient, particular if they can avoid NBC patch level changes (i.e. 'M' labelled versions). 5.4. Submodules packaging considerations As defined in [RFC7950] and draft-verdt-netmod-yang-semver (TBD), YANG conformance and versioning is specified in terms of particular revisions of YANG modules rather than for individual submodules. Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 8] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 However, YANG package definitions also include the list of submodules included by a module, primarily to provide a location of where the submodule definition can be obtained from, allowing a YANG schema to be fully constructed from a YANG package instance-data definition. Restructuring how a module uses, or does not use, submodules is treated as an editorial level change in YANG semantic versioning, on the condition that there is no change in the modules sementic behavior due to the restructuring. To ensure that a module and any constituent submodule are tightly related, all 'include' statements in a YANG module SHOULD specify revision-dates of the included submodules. If 'include' statement revision-dates are included in the YANG module then they MUST match the 'revision' field specified for the submodule in the packages's submodules lists. 5.5. Revision history TODO - Probably eventually delete this section ... YANG packages do not contain a revision history. It is anticipated that YANG packages versions may become branched over time and hence maintaining a linear revision history would likely be promlematic and less useful. Further, if YANG packages versions are managed in a source control system, then additional version meta-data information could be stored in the source control system, which are generally capable of representing a branched revision history. 5.6. Uniqueness of packages and global registry The name given to a package SHOULD be globally unique, and it SHOULD include an appropriate organization prefix in the name, equivalent to YANG module naming conventions. Each package MUST define a unique namespace. It is anticipated that a registry of package namespaces would be managed by IANA. It is unclear whether specific standard package versions would need to be managed in a similar way. Ideally a YANG instance data document defining a particular package version would be publically available at one or more URIs. 6. YANG Packaging instance data YANG packages are expected to be defined as YANG instance data documents [I-D.ietf-netmod-yang-instance-file-format] using the YANG schema below to define the pacakge data itself. Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 9] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 The instance data document for each version of a YANG package SHOULD be made available at one of more locations accessible via a URI. If one of the listed locations defines a definitive reference implementation for the package definition then it MUST be listed as the first entry in the list. The "ietf-yang-package" YANG module has the following structure: module: ietf-yang-package +--ro yang-package +--ro name yang:yang-identifier +--ro version yang-sem-ver +--ro revision-date? yanglib:revision-identifier +--ro location* inet:uri +--ro description? string +--ro reference? string +--ro tag* tags:tag +--ro mandatory-feature* string +--ro imported-packages* [name version] | +--ro name yang:yang-identifier | +--ro version yang-sem-ver | +--ro location* inet:uri +--ro module* [name] | +--ro name yang:yang-identifier | +--ro revision? revision-identifier | +--ro version? yang-sem-ver | +--ro namespace inet:uri | +--ro location* inet:uri | +--ro submodule* [name] | +--ro name yang:yang-identifier | +--ro revision yanglib:revision-identifier | +--ro location* inet:uri +--ro import-only-module* [name revision] +--ro name yang:yang-identifier +--ro revision union +--ro version? yang-sem-ver +--ro namespace inet:uri +--ro location* inet:uri +--ro submodule* [name] | +--ro name yang:yang-identifier | +--ro revision yanglib:revision-identifier | +--ro location* inet:uri +--ro replaces-revision* yanglib:revision-identifier Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 10] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 7. YANG Packaging additions to YANG library 7.1. Package List The main addition is a top level 'yang-library/package' list that lists all package of all versions known to the server. Each package itself is defined using imported packages and module-sets to define the specific set of modules implemented and imported by the package. The use of module-sets allows the module definitions to be shared with the existing YANG library schema definitions. The existing rule of RFC 7995bis related to combining modules-sets also applies here, i.e. The combined set of modules defined by the module-sets MUST NOT contain modules implemented at different revisions. I.e. the module- sets leaf-list is directly equivalent to the explicit module and import-only-module lists in the instance data YANG package definition. The 'yang-library/package' list MAY include multiple versions of a particular package. E.g. if the server is capable of allowing clients to select which package versions should be used by the server. 7.2. Binding from schema to package The second augmentation is to allow a server to optionally indicate that a schema definition directly relates to a package. Since YANG packages are available offline, it may be sufficient for a client to only check that a compatible version of the YANG package is being implemented by the server without fetching and comparing the full module list. If a server indicates that its schema maps to a particular package then it MUST support all mandatory-features defined as part of that package, and it MUST NOT have any deviations to the modules defined by the package. A server MAY implement features not specified in the package's mandatory-features list. If a server cannot faithfully implement a package then it can define a new package to accurately report what it does implement. The new package can include the original package as an imported package, and the new package can define additional modules containing deviations to the original package, allowing the new package to accurately describe the server behavior. There is no specific mechanism provided to indicate that a mandatory-feature is not supported on a server, but deviations MAY be used to disable functionality predicated by a mandatory-feature.

Should the YANG library changes be done as an augmentation (as per this draft), or is a new version of YANG library better? 2. Is it OK for the YANG definition used for package instance data vs YANG library to differ? The reason for the difference is to allow "Module Sets" to be reused, potentially minimizing duplicate data in YANG library. 3. Is name sufficient to uniquely identify a package, or should they also define the equivalent to a namespace? The current proposed solution is for the first entry in the location list to define a canonical location 4. Is disabling features using deviations sufficient? There are some cases where this cannot work, e.g. a deviation cannot remove an identity. 5. Should a package (or implementation) be able to remove modules from a package? Current thinking is the answer should be no because it greatly reduces the usefulness of package conformance. 6. Should a package include RFC 8199 related metadata? E.g., does a package contain device or service level YANG models? The current proposal is to gain this flexibility by allowing module tags to be added to package definitions. 7. Considering version selection, should the YANG library package definition have a flag to indicate whether a particular package can be selected by a client? Probably the answer here is to defer this issue to a separate version selection draft that can add a flag via augmentation. 8. TODO - Once draft-verdt-netmod-yang-semver is published, add appropriate references to this draft for module level semantic versioning. 11. Security Considerations The YANG modules specified in this document defines a schema for data that is accessed by network management protocols such as NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040]. The lowest NETCONF layer is the secure transport layer, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is Secure Shell (SSH) [RFC6242]. The lowest RESTCONF layer is HTTPS, and the mandatory-to-implement secure transport is TLS [RFC5246]. Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 26] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 The NETCONF access control model [RFC6536] provides the means to restrict access for particular NETCONF or RESTCONF users to a preconfigured subset of all available NETCONF or RESTCONF protocol operations and content. Similarly to YANG library [I-D.ietf-netconf-rfc7895bis], some of the readable data nodes in these YANG modules may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config, or notification) to these data nodes. One additional key different to YANG library, is that the 'ietf-yang- package' YANG module defines a schema to allow YANG packages to be defined in YANG instance data documents, that are outside the security controls of the network management protocols. Hence, it is important to also consider controlling access to these package instance data documents to restrict access to sensitive information. As per the YANG library security considerations, the module, revision and version information in YANG packages may help an attacker identify the server capabilities and server implementations with known bugs since the set of YANG modules supported by a server may reveal the kind of device and the manufacturer of the device. Server vulnerabilities may be specific to particular modules, module revisions, module features, or even module deviations. For example, if a particular operation on a particular data node is known to cause a server to crash or significantly degrade device performance, then the packaging information will help an attacker identify server implementations with such a defect, in order to launch a denial-of- service attack on the device. 12. IANA Considerations It is expected that a central registry of standard YANG package definitions is required to support this packaging solution. It is unclear whether an IANA registry is also required to manage specific package versions. It is highly desirable to have a specific canonical location, under IETF control, where the definitive YANG package versions can be obtained from. 13. References 13.1.

E.g., it includes functionality such as system information, interface and basic IP configuration. As for all YANG packages, all import dependencies are fully resolved.

Package import conflict resolution example This section provides an example of how a package can resolve conflicting module versions from imported packages. In this example, YANG package 'example-3-pkg' imports both 'example- import-1' and 'example-import-2' packages. However, the two imported packages implement different versions of 'example-module-A' so the 'example-3-pkg' package selects version '1.2.3' to resolve the conflict. Similarly, for import-only modules, the 'example-3-pkg' package does not require both versions of example-types-module-C to be imported, so it indicates that it only imports revision '2018-11-26' and not '2018-01-01'. { "ietf-yang-instance-data:instance-data-set": { "name": "example-import-1-pkg", "description": "First imported example package", "content-data": { "ietf-yang-package:yang-package": { "name": "example-import-1", "version": "1.0.0", "reference": "XXX, draft-rwilton-netmod-yang-packages", "revision-date": "2018-01-01", "module": [ { "name": "example-module-A", "version": "1.0.0" }, Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 37] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 { "name": "example-module-B", "version": "1.0.0" } ], "import-only-module": [ { "name": "example-types-module-C", "revision": "2018-01-01" }, { "name": "example-types-module-D", "revision": "2018-01-01" } ] } } } } { "ietf-yang-instance-data:instance-data-set": { "name": "example-import-2-pkg", "description": "Second imported example package", "content-data": { "ietf-yang-package:yang-package": { "name": "example-import-2", "version": "2.0.0", "reference": "XXX, draft-rwilton-netmod-yang-packages", "revision-date": "2018-11-26", "module": [ { "name": "example-module-A", "version": "1.2.3" }, { "name": "example-module-E", "version": "1.1.0" } ], "import-only-module": [ { "name": "example-types-module-C", "revision": "2018-11-26" }, { "name": "example-types-module-D", "revision": "2018-11-26" Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 38] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 } ] } } } } { "ietf-yang-instance-data:instance-data-set": { "name": "example-3-pkg", "description": "Importing example package", "content-data": { "ietf-yang-package:yang-package": { "name": "example-3", "version": "1.0.0", "reference": "XXX, draft-rwilton-netmod-yang-packages", "revision-date": "2018-11-26", "imported-packages": [ { "name": "example-import-1", "version": "1.0.0" }, { "name": "example-import-2", "version": "2.0.0" } ], "module": [ { "name": "example-module-A", "version": "1.2.3" } ], "import-only-module": [ { "name": "example-types-module-C", "revision": "2018-11-26", "replaces-revision": [ "2018-01-01 "] } ] } } } } Author's Address Wilton Expires June 23, 2019 [Page 39] Internet-Draft YANG Packages December 2018 Robert Wilton Cisco Systems, Inc.
