Expires July 21, 2021 [Page 2] Internet-Draft YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID) January 2021 1. Introduction Some of the items defined in YANG [RFC7950] require the use of a unique identifier. In both NETCONF [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040], these identifiers are implemented using names. To allow the implementation of data models defined in YANG in constrained devices and constrained networks, a more compact method to identify YANG items is required. This compact identifier, called YANG SID or simply SID in this document and when the context is clear, is encoded using a 63-bit unsigned integer. The limitation to 63-bit unsigned integers allows SIDs to be manipulated more easily on platforms that might otherwise lack native 64-bit unsigned arithmetic. The loss of a single bit of range is not significant given the size of the remaining space. The following items are identified using SIDs: o identities o data nodes (Note: including those nodes defined by the 'yang-data' extension.) o RPCs and associated input(s) and output(s) o actions and associated input(s) and output(s) o notifications and associated information o YANG modules, submodules and features It is possible that some protocols use only a subset of the assigned SIDs, for example, for protocols equivalent to NETCONF [RFC6241] like [I-D.ietf-core-comi] the transportation of YANG modules SIDs might be unnecessary. Others protocols might need to be able to transport this information, for example protocols related to discovery such as Constrained YANG Module Library [I-D.ietf-core-yang-library]. SIDs are globally unique integers, a registration system is used in order to guarantee their uniqueness. SIDs are registered in blocks called "SID ranges". Assignment of SIDs to YANG items can be automated. For more details how this could be achieved, please consult Appendix B. SIDs are assigned permanently, items introduced by a new revision of a YANG module are added to the list of SIDs already assigned. If the meaning of an item changes, for example as a result from a non- Veillette, et al. Expires July 21, 2021 [Page 3] Internet-Draft YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID) January 2021 backward compatible update of the YANG module, a new SID should be assigned to it. Section 3 provides more details about the registration process of YANG modules and associated SIDs. To enable the implementation of this registry, Section 4 defines a standard file format used to store and publish SIDs. 2. Terminology and Notation 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. The following terms are defined in [RFC7950]: o action o feature o module o notification o RPC o schema node o schema tree o submodule The following term is defined in [RFC8040]: o yang-data extension This specification also makes use of the following terminology: o item: A schema node, an identity, a module, a submodule or a feature defined using the YANG modeling language. o schema-node path: A schema-node path is a string that identifies a schema node within the schema tree. A path consists of the list of consecutive schema node identifier(s) separated by slashes ("/"). Schema node identifier(s) are always listed from the top- level schema node up to the targeted schema node and could contain Veillette, et al. Expires July 21, 2021 [Page 4] Internet-Draft YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID) January 2021 namespace information. (e.g. "/ietf-system:system-state/clock/ current-datetime") o Namespace-qualified form - a schema node identifier is prefixed with the name of the module in which the schema node is defined, separated from the schema node identifier by the colon character (":"). o YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID or simply SID): Unsigned integer used to identify different YANG items. 3. ".sid" file lifecycle YANG is a language designed to model data accessed using one of the compatible protocols (e.g. NETCONF [RFC6241], RESTCONF [RFC8040] and CORECONF [I-D.ietf-core-comi]). A YANG module defines hierarchies of data, including configuration, state data, RPCs, actions and notifications. Many YANG modules are not created in the context of constrained applications. YANG modules can be implemented using NETCONF [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040] without the need to assign SIDs. As needed, authors of YANG modules can assign SIDs to their YANG modules. In order to do that, they should first obtain a SID range from a registry and use that range to assign or generate SIDs to items of their YANG module. The assignments can then be stored in a ".sid" file. For example on how this could be achieved, please refer to Appendix C. Registration of the ".sid" file associated to a YANG module is optional but recommended to promote interoperability between devices and to avoid duplicate allocation of SIDs to a single YANG module. Different registries might have different requirements for the registration and publication of the ".sid" files. For a diagram of one of the possibilities, please refer to the activity diagram on Figure 1 in Appendix C. Each time a YANG module or one of its imported module(s) or included sub-module(s) is updated, a new ".sid" file MAY need to be created. All the SIDs present in the previous version of the ".sid" file MUST be present in the new version as well. The creation of this new version of the ".sid" file SHOULD be performed using an automated tool. If a new revision requires more SIDs than initially allocated, a new SID range MUST be added to the 'assignment-ranges' as defined in Section 4. These extra SIDs are used for subsequent assignments. Veillette, et al. Expires July 21, 2021 [Page 5] Internet-Draft YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID) January 2021 For an example of this update process, see activity diagram Figure 2 in Appendix C. 4. ".sid" file format ".sid" files are used to persist and publish SIDs assigned to the different YANG items of a specific YANG module.

Create new IANA Registry: "YANG SID Mega-Range" registry The name of this registry is "YANG SID Mega-Range". This registry is used to record the delegation of the management of a block of SIDs to third parties (such as SDOs or registrars). 7.4.1. Structure Each entry in this registry must include: o The entry point (first SID) of the registered SID block. o The size of the registered SID block. The size MUST be one million (1 000 000) SIDs. o The contact information of the requesting organization including: * The policy of SID range allocations: Public, Private or Both. * Organization name * URL The information associated to the Organization name should not be publicly visible in the registry, but should be available. This information includes contact email and phone number and change controller email and phone number. 7.4.2. Allocation policy The IANA policy for future additions to this registry is "Expert Review" [RFC8126]. An organization requesting to manage a YANG SID Range (and thus have an entry in the YANG SID Mega-Range Registry), must ensure the following capacities: o The capacity to manage and operate a YANG SID Range Registry. A YANG SID Range Registry MUST provide the following information for all YANG SID Ranges allocated by the Registry: * Entry Point of allocated YANG SID Range * Size of allocated YANG SID Range * Type: Public or Private Veillette, et al. Expires July 21, 2021 [Page 14] Internet-Draft YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID) January 2021 + Public Ranges MUST include at least a reference to the YANG module and ".sid" files for that YANG SID Range. + Private Ranges MUST be marked as "Private" o A Policy of allocation, which clearly identifies if the YANG SID Range allocations would be Private, Public or Both. o Technical capacity to ensure the sustained operation of the registry for a period of at least 5 years. If Private Registrations are allowed, the period must be of at least 10 years. 7.4.2.1. First allocation For a first allocation to be provided, the requesting organization must demonstrate a functional registry infrastructure. 7.4.2.2. Consecutive allocations On subsequent allocation request(s), the organization must demonstrate the exhaustion of the prior range. These conditions need to be asserted by the assigned expert(s). If that extra-allocation is done within 3 years from the last allocation, the experts need to discuss this request on the CORE working group mailing list and consensus needs to be obtained before allocating a new Mega-Range. 7.4.3. Initial contents of the Registry The initial entry in this registry is allocated to IANA: +-------------+---------+------------+-------------------+----------+ | Entry Point | Size | Allocation | Organization name | URL | +-------------+---------+------------+-------------------+----------+ | 0 | 1000000 | Public | IANA | iana.org | +-------------+---------+------------+-------------------+----------+ 7.5.

Expires July 21, 2021 [Page 15] Internet-Draft YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID) January 2021 o The SID range size. o The YANG module name. o Document reference. 7.5.2. Allocation policy The first million SIDs assigned to IANA is sub-divided as follows: o The range of 0 to 999 (size 1000) is "Reserved" as defined in [RFC8126]. o The range of 1000 to 59,999 (size 59,000) is reserved for YANG modules defined in RFCs. * The IANA policy for additions to this registry is either: + "Expert Review" [RFC8126] in case the ".sid" file comes from a YANG module from an existing RFC, or + "RFC Required" [RFC8126] otherwise. * The Expert MUST verify that the YANG module for which this allocation is made has an RFC (existing RFC) OR is on track to become RFC (early allocation with a request from the WG chairs as defined by [RFC7120]). o The range of 60,000 to 99,999 (size 40,000) is reserved for experimental YANG modules. This range MUST NOT be used in operational deployments since these SIDs are not globally unique which limit their interoperability. The IANA policy for this range is "Experimental use" [RFC8126]. o The range of 100,000 to 999,999 (size 900,000) is "Reserved" as defined in [RFC8126]. +-------------+---------+-------------------------------+ | Entry Point | Size | IANA policy | +-------------+---------+-------------------------------+ | 0 | 1,000 | Reserved | | 1,000 | 59,000 | Expert Review or RFC Required | | 60,000 | 40,000 | Experimental use | | 100,000 | 900,000 | Reserved | +-------------+---------+-------------------------------+ The size of the SID range allocated for a YANG module is recommended to be a multiple of 50 and to be at least 33% above the current Veillette, et al. Expires July 21, 2021 [Page 16] Internet-Draft YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID) January 2021 number of YANG items. This headroom allows assignment within the same range of new YANG items introduced by subsequent revisions. The maximum SID range size is 1000. A larger size may be requested by the authors if this recommendation is considered insufficient. It is important to note that an additional SID range can be allocated to an existing YANG module if the initial range is exhausted. In case a SID range is allocated for an existing RFC through the "Expert Review" policy, the Document reference field for the given allocation should point to the RFC that the YANG module is defined in. In case a SID range is required before publishing the RFC due to implementations needing stable SID values, early allocation as defined in [RFC7120] can be employed. As specified in section 4.6 of [RFC8126], RFCs and by extension documents that are expected to become an RFC fulfill the requirement for "Specification Required" stated in section 2 of [RFC7120], which allows for the early allocation process to be employed. 7.5.3.

The ".sid" file is stored by IANA. o The number of actually allocated SIDs in the ".sid" file. 7.6.2. Allocation policy The allocation policy is Expert review. The Expert MUST ensure that the following conditions are met: o The ".sid" file has a valid structure: * The ".sid" file MUST be a valid JSON file following the structure of the module defined in RFCXXXX (RFC Ed: replace XXX with RFC number assigned to this draft). o The ".sid" file allocates individual SIDs ONLY in the YANG SID Ranges for this YANG module (as allocated in the IETF YANG SID Range Registry): * All SIDs in this ".sid" file MUST be within the ranges allocated to this YANG module in the "IETF YANG SID Range Registry". o If another ".sid" file has already allocated SIDs for this YANG module (e.g. for older or newer versions of the YANG module), the YANG items are assigned the same SIDs as in the other ".sid" file. Veillette, et al. Expires July 21, 2021 [Page 18] Internet-Draft YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID) January 2021 o If there is an older version of the ".sid" file, all allocated SIDs from that version are still present in the current version of the ".sid" file. 7.6.3. Recursive Allocation of YANG SID Range at Document Adoption Due to the difficulty in changing SID values during IETF document processing, it is expected that most documents will ask for SID allocations using Early Allocations [RFC7120]. The details of the Early Allocation should be included in any Working Group Adoption call. Prior to Working Group Adoption, an internet draft authors can use the experimental SID range (as per Section 7.5.2) for their SIDs allocations or other values that do not create ambiguity with other SID uses (for example they can use a range that comes from a non-IANA managed "YANG SID Mega-Range" registry). After Working Group Adoption, any modification of a ".sid" file is expected to be discussed on the mailing list of the appropriate Working Groups. Specific attention should be paid to implementers' opinion after Working Group Last Call if a SID value is to change its meaning. In all cases, a ".sid" file and the SIDs associated with it are subject to change before the publication of an internet draft as an RFC. During the early use of SIDs, many existing, previously published YANG modules will not have SID allocations. For an allocation to be useful the included YANG modules may also need to have SID allocations made. The Expert Reviewer who performs the (Early) Allocation analysis will need to go through the list of included YANG modules and perform SID allocations for those modules as well. o If the document is a published RFC, then the allocation of SIDs for its referenced YANG modules is permanent. The Expert Reviewer provides the generated SID file to IANA for registration. This process may be time consuming during a bootstrap period (there are over 100 YANG modules to date, none of which have SID allocations), but should quiet down once needed entries are allocated. o If the document is an unprocessed Internet-Draft adopted in a WG, then an Early Allocation is performed for this document as well. Early Allocations require approval by an IESG Area Director. An early allocation which requires additional allocations will list the other allocations in it's description, and will be cross- posted to the any other working group mailing lists. Veillette, et al. Expires July 21, 2021 [Page 19] Internet-Draft YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID) January 2021 o A YANG module which references a module in an document which has not yet been adopted by any working group will be unable to perform an Early Allocation for that other document until it is adopted by a working group. As described in [RFC7120], an AD Sponsored document acts as if it had a working group. The approving AD may also exempt a document from this policy by agreeing to AD Sponsor the document. At the end of the IETF process all the dependencies of a given module for which SIDs are assigned, should also have SIDs assigned. Those dependencies' assignments should be permanent (not Early Allocation). A previously SID-allocated YANG module which changes its references to include a YANG module for which there is no SID allocation needs to repeat the Early Allocation process. Early Allocations are made with a one-year period, after which they are expired. [RFC7120] indicates that at most one renewal may be made. For the SID allocation a far more lenient stance is desired. 1. An extension of a referencing documents Early Allocation should update any referenced Early Allocations to expire no sooner than the referencing document. 2. The [RFC7120] mechanism allows the IESG to provide a second renewal, and such an event may prompt some thought about how the collection of documents are being processed. This is driven by the very generous size of the SID space and the often complex and deep dependencies of YANG modules. Often a core module with many dependencies will undergo extensive review, delaying the publication of other documents. [RFC7120] also says: Note that if a document is submitted for review to the IESG and at the time of submission some early allocations are valid (not expired), these allocations should not be expired while the document is under IESG consideration or waiting in the RFC Editor's queue after approval by the IESG. 7.6.4.

SID auto generation Assignment of SIDs to YANG items can be automated, the recommended process to assign SIDs is as follows: 1. A tool extracts the different items defined for a specific YANG module. 2. The list of items is sorted in alphabetical order, 'namespace' in descending order, 'identifier' in ascending order. The 'namespace' and 'identifier' formats are described in the YANG module 'ietf-sid-file' defined in Section 4. 3. SIDs are assigned sequentially from the entry point up to the size of the registered SID range. This approach is recommended to minimize the serialization overhead, especially when delta between a reference SID and the current SID is used by protocols aiming to reduce message size. 4. If the number of items exceeds the SID range(s) allocated to a YANG module, an extra range is added for subsequent assignments. Veillette, et al. Expires July 21, 2021 [Page 32] Internet-Draft YANG Schema Item iDentifier (YANG SID) January 2021 5. The "dependency-revision" should reflect the revision numbers of each YANG module that the YANG module imports at the moment of the generation. In case of an update to an existing ".sid" file, an additional step is needed that increments the ".sid" file version number. If there was no version number in the previous version of the ".sid" file, 0 is assumed as the version number of the old version of the ".sid" file and the version number is 1 for the new ".sid" file. Apart from that, changes of ".sid" files can also be automated using the same method described above, only unassigned YANG items are processed at step #3. Already existing items in the ".sid" file should not be given new SIDs. Note that ".sid" file versions are specific to a YANG module revision. For each new YANG module or each new revision of an existing YANG module, the version number of the initial ".sid" file should either be 0 or should not be present. Note also that RPC or action "input" and "output" data nodes MUST always be assigned SID even if they don't contain data nodes. The reason for this requirement is that other modules can augment the given module and those SIDs might be necessary. Appendix C. ".sid" file lifecycle Before assigning SIDs to their YANG modules, YANG module authors must acquire a SID range from a "YANG SID Range Registry". If the YANG module is part of an IETF draft or RFC, the SID range need to be acquired from the "IETF YANG SID Range Registry" as defined in Section 7.5. For the other YANG modules, the authors can acquire a SID range from any "YANG SID Range Registry" of their choice. Once the SID range is acquired, the owner can use it to generate ".sid" file/s for his YANG module/s. It is recommended to leave some unallocated SIDs following the allocated range in each ".sid" file in order to allow better evolution of the YANG module in the future. Generation of ".sid" files should be performed using an automated tool. Note that ".sid" files can only be generated for YANG modules and not for submodules. C.1.
