fix: honor the caller's TLS trust on the RDMA path - #2302
Merged

Conversation
RDMA transfers are driven by libminiocpp, which issues its own S3 requests rather than going through this package's http.Client. A TLSClientConfig set on that client governed the HTTP path alone: the C++ side verified against the OpenSSL trust store and could not see it. So an RDMA PUT or GET failed against exactly the self-signed and private-CA endpoints where the same client's plain S3 calls worked, and --insecure could not rescue it -- there was no fallback to HTTP either, so the operation failed outright. The trust decision is now carried across via miniocpp_client_new_tls. It is derived from the transport rather than configured separately, so an existing --insecure keeps working with no call-site change. Only *http.Transport can be inspected; a wrapped transport keeps verification rather than guessing its way into a weaker setting. A private CA is still named by SSL_CERT_FILE, which libminiocpp reads per request.

minio-cpp 1.0.0 builds the library as libminio (minio/minio-cpp#264), so the link flag follows it. That release is also the first carrying miniocpp_client_new_tls, which the change before this one calls, so the RDMA lane pins it rather than v0.7.0 — which has neither.
Same exposure that took three lanes down in minio-cpp without their code being involved: the runner image's chrome and microsoft lists serve an index that intermittently fails its hash check, and `apt-get update` fails the job with it. Drop the lists nothing here installs from, retry once, and leave `apt-get install` as the gate.

Review feedback on minio#2302, plus the one red check that was not this branch's doing. The minio-cpp checkout is pinned to the commit v1.0.0 points at, rather than the tag. This job copies vendor/s3rdma out of that checkout and installs what it builds, so the ref decides what ends up on the runner; a tag can be moved after review, and vcpkg and every action in the file are already pinned by commit. The VulnCheck 1.25.x leg failed on `go install govulncheck@latest`: setup-go pins GOTOOLCHAIN=local, and x/vuln v1.8.0 declares go 1.26.0, so the tool could not be built at all. Building it with GOTOOLCHAIN=auto lets it fetch the toolchain it needs while the scan still runs on the matrix leg. Scoped to that one step.

minio-cpp 1.0.0 renames the installed library from libminiocpp to libminio and gives it a stable soname, so minio-go's cgo directive is now -lminio (minio/minio-go#2302). The pinned ref moves in lockstep across the three places that carry it -- the CI workflow, scripts/build-rdma.sh and scripts/setup-rdma-release-host.sh -- since a build that compiles against 1.0.0 headers while linking a 0.6.0 archive fails by naming a missing symbol rather than a version. 1.0.0 also changes what minio-cpp links against: it replaces curlpp with cpp-httplib, and takes zlib from the system on Linux rather than vcpkg. scripts/rdma-cgo-libs.txt is the hand-maintained static link line -- read by the workflow, build-rdma.sh and qreleaser.yaml, and used to derive the release host's prefix checks -- so it has to follow: - Drop -lcurlpp and -lcurl. vcpkg no longer builds them, so on a clean runner the link fails outright with "cannot find -lcurlpp". - Add -lbrotlienc, -lbrotlidec and -lbrotlicommon. cpp-httplib brings brotli, and libminio.a carries 7 undefined Brotli* symbols where libminiocpp.a carried none. - Treat zlib as a system library in the prefix checks, which otherwise require an archive for every -l in the line and now demand a libz.a that 1.0.0 does not produce on Linux. setup-rdma-release-host.sh also sweeps what the upgrade orphans. A pre-1.0.0 libminiocpp.* is swept with the library itself, and the orphaned dependency archives -- libcurlpp, libcurl, libz -- unconditionally, because a prefix that already holds this build can still carry the previous version's dependency set. The orphaned libz.a is the one that misleads: it still satisfies -lz, so the link succeeds locally against a static zlib and against the system one everywhere else, and the release stops matching what CI built. Verified on a release host that still held the 0.6.0 install, so the upgrade path was exercised rather than a clean one: both prefixes rebuilt at 1.0.0, the orphans were moved aside, and the amd64 and arm64 smoke builds link. The resulting binary needs libs3rdma.so.0 and system libraries only -- no libminiocpp, no libcurl, libminio static. libs3rdma needs no separate change. minio-cpp vendors it, so this pin carries it from 0.3.0 to 0.3.1 for both architectures, and its soname stays libs3rdma.so.0, which is the name the release packaging copies out.

The larger change is what 1.0.0 links against. It replaces curlpp with cpp-httplib and takes zlib from the system on Linux rather than vcpkg, so warp's hand-maintained static link line and the release host's dependencies both have to follow: - Drop -lcurlpp and -lcurl from scripts/rdma-cgo-libs.txt. vcpkg no longer builds them, so a clean host fails the link outright with "cannot find -lcurlpp". - Add -lbrotlienc, -lbrotlidec and -lbrotlicommon. cpp-httplib brings brotli, and libminio.a carries 7 undefined Brotli* symbols where libminiocpp.a carried none. - Install zlib1g-dev for every target architecture. Configuring minio-cpp for arm64 without zlib1g-dev:arm64 fails with "Could NOT find ZLIB (missing: ZLIB_LIBRARY)". - Treat zlib as a system library in the prefix checks, which require an archive for every -l in the line and would otherwise demand a libz.a that 1.0.0 does not produce on Linux. setup-rdma-release-host.sh also sweeps what the upgrade orphans: a pre-1.0.0 libminiocpp.* with the library itself, and the orphaned dependency archives -- libcurlpp, libcurl, libz -- unconditionally, since a prefix that already holds this build can still carry the previous version's dependency set.

Verified on a release host that still held the 0.6.0 install, so the upgrade path was exercised rather than a clean one. The orphans were moved aside, both prefixes rebuilt at 1.0.0 -- arm64 from scratch, so its configure step was exercised rather than served from cache -- and both smoke builds link. The resulting binary needs libs3rdma.so.0 and system libraries only: no libminiocpp, no libcurl, libminio static, zlib dynamic as it now is on Linux. libs3rdma needs no separate change. minio-cpp vendors it, so this pin carries it from 0.3.0 to 0.3.1 for both architectures, and its soname stays libs3rdma.so.0, which is the name the release packaging copies out.

What
RDMA transfers are driven by libminiocpp, which issues its own S3 requests rather than going through this package's
http.Client. ATLSClientConfigset on that client therefore governed the HTTP path alone: the C++ side verified against the OpenSSL trust store andcould not see it.
So an RDMA
PutObject/GetObjectfailed against exactly the self-signed and private-CA endpoints where the same client's plain S3 callsworked, and
--insecurecould not rescue it. There is no fallback to the HTTP data path once RDMA is selected(
api-put-object.go:332,api-get-object.go:49return the error), so the operation failed outright rather than degrading.How
The trust decision is carried across to libminiocpp via
miniocpp_client_new_tls, released inminio-cpp v1.0.0.
It is derived from the transport rather than exposed as a new option, so a caller's existing
--insecurekeeps working with nocall-site change. Only
*http.Transportcan be inspected; a caller that wraps its transport in anotherRoundTripperkeeps verificationrather than having this guess its way into a weaker setting.
A private CA is still named by
SSL_CERT_FILE, which libminiocpp reads per request — a*x509.CertPoolcannot be turned back into thefile path that argument wants, so
nilis passed for it.The other two commits
-lminio. minio-cpp 1.0.0 builds the library aslibminio(with a stablelibminio.so.1soname), so the link flag follows it. TheRDMA lane pins
v1.0.0, which is also the first release carryingminiocpp_client_new_tls—v0.7.0has neither.apt hardening. The lane's
apt-get updatefails the job when the runner image's third-party lists serve a bad index; this cost threegreen lanes in minio-cpp within one minute on unrelated code. The lists nothing here installs from are dropped, the update retries once,
and
apt-get installstays the gate.Test
TestRDMASkipCertVerifycovers the derivation: insecure transport over https, a verifying transport, insecure without https (nothing toskip), no
TLSClientConfig, the default transport, a nil client, and a wrapped transport. Forcing the helper to returnfalsefails theinsecure-over-https case, so the test guards the behaviour rather than restating it.
The helper is in an untagged file on purpose.
rdma_test.gois//go:build rdmaand only builds in the RDMA lane, which is why thisgap went unnoticed — the derivation is pure Go and now runs in the ordinary test lane.
go vet -tags rdmaalso passes against theminio-cpp 1.0.0 header, so the cgo call to the new symbol type-checks.
