TLS Support
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
Getting Started
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
### Building
|
|
|
|
To build with TLS support you'll need OpenSSL development libraries (e.g.
|
|
libssl-dev on Debian/Ubuntu).
|
|
|
|
Run `make BUILD_TLS=yes`.
|
|
|
|
### Tests
|
|
|
|
To run Redis test suite with TLS, you'll need TLS support for TCL (i.e.
|
|
`tcl-tls` package on Debian/Ubuntu).
|
|
|
|
1. Run `./utils/gen-test-certs.sh` to generate a root CA and a server
|
|
certificate.
|
|
|
|
2. Run `./runtest --tls` or `./runtest-cluster --tls` to run Redis and Redis
|
|
Cluster tests in TLS mode.
|
|
|
|
### Running manually
|
|
|
|
To manually run a Redis server with TLS mode (assuming `gen-test-certs.sh` was
|
|
invoked so sample certificates/keys are available):
|
|
|
|
./src/redis-server --tls-port 6379 --port 0 \
|
|
--tls-cert-file ./tests/tls/redis.crt \
|
|
--tls-key-file ./tests/tls/redis.key \
|
|
--tls-ca-cert-file ./tests/tls/ca.crt
|
|
|
|
To connect to this Redis server with `redis-cli`:
|
|
|
|
./src/redis-cli --tls \
|
|
--cert ./tests/tls/redis.crt \
|
|
--key ./tests/tls/redis.key \
|
|
--cacert ./tests/tls/ca.crt
|
|
|
|
This will disable TCP and enable TLS on port 6379. It's also possible to have
|
|
both TCP and TLS available, but you'll need to assign different ports.
|
|
|
|
To make a Replica connect to the master using TLS, use `--tls-replication yes`,
|
|
and to make Redis Cluster use TLS across nodes use `--tls-cluster yes`.
|
|
|
|
Connections
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
All socket operations now go through a connection abstraction layer that hides
|
|
I/O and read/write event handling from the caller.
|
|
|
|
Note that unlike Redis, KeyDB fully supports multithreading of TLS connections.
|
|
|
|
To-Do List
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Add session caching support. Check if/how it's handled by clients to
|
|
assess how useful/important it is.
|
|
- [ ] redis-benchmark support. The current implementation is a mix of using
|
|
hiredis for parsing and basic networking (establishing connections), but
|
|
directly manipulating sockets for most actions. This will need to be cleaned
|
|
up for proper TLS support. The best approach is probably to migrate to hiredis
|
|
async mode.
|
|
- [ ] redis-cli `--slave` and `--rdb` support.
|
|
|
|
Multi-port
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Consider the implications of allowing TLS to be configured on a separate port,
|
|
making Redis listening on multiple ports:
|
|
|
|
1. Startup banner port notification
|
|
2. Proctitle
|
|
3. How slaves announce themselves
|
|
4. Cluster bus port calculation
