Today I discussed about the topic with Rajesh, Avra and Kotresh. Summary
as below
- Instead of exposing eventsd to external world why not expose a
Glusterd RPC for gf_event, Since Glusterd already has logic for backup
volfile server.
- Gluster Clients to Glusterd using RPC, Glusterd will send message to
local eventsd.
Any suggestions for this approach?

Hi,
As many of you aware, Gluster Eventing feature is available in
Master.
To add support to listen to the Events from GlusterFS Clients
following
changes are identified
- Change in Eventsd to listen to tcp socket instead of Unix
domain
socket. This enables Client to send message to Eventsd
running in
Storage node.
- On Client connection, share Port and Token details with Xdata
- Client gf_event will connect to this port and pushes the
event(Includes Token)
- Eventsd validates Token, publishes events only if Token is
valid.
Is there a lifetime/renewal associated with this token? Are there
more details on how token management is being done? Sorry if these
are repeat questions as I might have missed something along the
review trail!
At least in the discussion it didn't seem like we needed any new tokens
once it is generated. Do you have any usecase?
No specific usecase right now but I am interested in understanding
more details about token lifecycle management. Are we planning to use
the same token infrastructure described in Authentication section of
[1]?
If we use the same token as in REST API then we can expire the tokens
easily without the overhead of maintaining the token state in node. If
we expire tokens then Clients have to get new tokens once expired. Let
me know if we already have any best practice with glusterd to client
communication.
Thanks,
Vijay
