Introduction IETF Standards for machine to machine communication in constrained environments describe a REST protocol [RFC7252] and a set of related information standards that may be used to represent machine data and machine metadata in REST interfaces. Koster, et al. Expires November 11, 2022 [Page 2] Internet-Draft Conditional Attributes for CoRE May 2022 This specification defines Conditional Notification and Control Attributes for use with CoRE Observe [RFC7641]. 2. Terminology 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 specification requires readers to be familiar with all the terms and concepts that are discussed in [RFC7641]. This specification makes use of the following additional terminology: Notification Band: A resource value range that may be bounded by a minimum and maximum value or may be unbounded having either a minimum or maximum value. 3. Conditional Attributes This specification defines conditional attributes for use with CoRE Observe [RFC7641]. Conditional attributes provide fine-grained control of notification and synchronization of resource states. When observing a resource, a CoAP client conveys conditional attributes as metadata using the query component of a CoAP URI. A conditional attribute can be represented as a "name=value" query parameter or simply a "name" without a value. Multiple conditional attributes in a query component are separated with an ampersand "&". A resource marked as Observable in its link description SHOULD support these conditional attributes. Note: In this draft, we assume that there are finite quantization effects in the internal or external updates to the value representing the state of a resource; specifically, that a resource state may be updated at any time with any valid value. We therefore avoid any continuous-time assumptions in the description of the conditional attributes and instead use the phrase "sampled value" to refer to a member of a sequence of values that may be internally observed from the resource state over time. 3.1. Conditional Notification Attributes Conditional Notification Attributes define the conditions that trigger a notification. Conditional Notification Attributes SHOULD be evaluated on all potential notifications from a resource, whether resulting from an internal server-driven sampling process or from external update requests to the server. Koster, et al. Expires November 11, 2022 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Conditional Attributes for CoRE May 2022 The set of Conditional Notification Attributes defined here allow a client to control how often a client is interested in receiving notifications and how much a value should change for the new representation state to be interesting. One or more Conditional Notification Attributes MAY be included in an Observe request. Conditional Notification Attributes are defined below: +-------------------+--------+-----------------+ | Attribute | Name | Value | +-------------------+--------+-----------------+ | Greater Than | c.gt | xs:decimal | | | | | | Less Than | c.lt | xs:decimal | | | | | | Change Step | c.st | xs:decimal (>0) | | | | | | Notification Band | c.band | (none) | | | | | | Edge | c.edge | xs:boolean | +-------------------+--------+-----------------+ Table 1: Conditional Notification Attributes 3.1.1. Greater Than (c.gt) When present, Greater Than indicates the upper limit value the sampled value SHOULD cross before triggering a notification. A notification is sent whenever the sampled value crosses the specified upper limit value, relative to the last reported value, and the time for "c.pmin" has elapsed since the last notification. The sampled value is sent in the notification. If the value continues to rise, no notifications are generated as a result of "c.gt". If the value drops below the upper limit value then a notification is sent, subject again to the "c.pmin" time. The Greater Than parameter can only be supported on resources with a scalar numeric value. 3.1.2. Less Than (c.lt) When present, Less Than indicates the lower limit value the resource value SHOULD cross before triggering a notification. A notification is sent when the samples value crosses the specified lower limit value, relative to the last reported value, and the time for "c.pmin" has elapsed since the last notification. The sampled value is sent in the notification. If the value continues to fall no notifications are generated as a result of "c.lt". If the value rises above the Koster, et al. Expires November 11, 2022 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Conditional Attributes for CoRE May 2022 lower limit value then a new notification is sent, subject to the "c.pmin" time. The Less Than parameter can only be supported on resources with a scalar numeric value. 3.1.3. Change Step (c.st) When present, the change step indicates how much the value representing a resource state SHOULD change before triggering a notification, compared to the old state. Upon reception of a query including the "c.st" attribute, the current resource state representing the most recently sampled value is reported, and then set as the last reported value (last_rep_v). When a subsequent sampled value or update of the resource state differs from the last reported state by an amount, positive or negative, greater than or equal to st, and the time for "c.pmin" has elapsed since the last notification, a notification is sent and the last reported value is updated to the new resource state sent in the notification. The change step MUST be greater than zero otherwise the receiver MUST return a CoAP error code 4.00 "Bad Request" (or equivalent). The Change Step parameter can only be supported on resource states represented with a scalar numeric value. Note: Due to sampling and other constraints, e.g. "c.pmin", the change in resource states received in two sequential notifications may differ by more than "c.st". 3.1.4. Notification band (c.band) The notification band attribute allows a bounded or unbounded (based on a minimum or maximum) value range that may trigger multiple notifications. This enables use cases where different ranges results in differing behaviour. For example, in monitoring the temperature of machinery, whilst the temperature is in the normal operating range, only periodic updates are needed. However as the temperature moves to more abnormal ranges more frequent state updates may be sent to clients. Without a notification band, a transition across a less than (c.lt), or greater than (c.gt) limit only generates one notification. This means that it is not possible to describe a case where multiple notifications are sent so long as the limit is exceeded. The "c.band" attribute works as a modifier to the behaviour of "c.gt" and "c.lt". Its use is determined only by its presence, and not its Koster, et al. Expires November 11, 2022 [Page 5] Internet-Draft Conditional Attributes for CoRE May 2022 value. Therefore, if "c.band" is present in a query, "c.gt", "c.lt" or both, MUST be included. When "c.band" is present with the "c.lt" attribute, it defines the lower bound for the notification band (notification band minimum). Notifications occur when the resource value is equal to or above the notification band minimum. If "c.lt" is not present there is no minimum value for the band. When "c.band" is present with the "c.gt" attribute, it defines the upper bound for the notification band (notification band maximum). Notifications occur when the resource value is equal to or below the notification band maximum. If "c.gt" is not present there is no maximum value for the band. If "c.band" is present with both the "c.gt" and "c.lt" attributes, notification occurs when the resource value is greater than or equal to "c.gt" or when the resource value is less than or equal to "c.lt". If "c.band" is specified in which the value of "c.gt" is less than that of "c.lt", in-band notification occurs. That is, notification occurs whenever the resource value is between the "c.gt" and "c.lt" values, including equal to "c.gt" or "c.lt". If "c.band" is specified in which the value of "c.gt" is greater than that of "c.lt", out-of-band notification occurs. That is, notification occurs when the resource value not between the "c.gt" and "c.lt" values, excluding equal to "c.gt" and "c.lt". The Notification Band parameter can only be supported on resources with a scalar numeric value. 3.1.5. Edge (c.edge) When present, the "c.edge" attribute indicates interest for receiving notifications of either the falling edge or the rising edge transition of a boolean resource state. When the value of the "c.edge" attribute is 0 (False), the server notifies the client each time a resource state changes from True to False. When the value of the "c.edge" attribute is 1 (True), the server notifies the client each time a resource state changes from False to True. The "c.edge" attribute can only be supported on resources with a boolean value. Koster, et al. Expires November 11, 2022 [Page 6] Internet-Draft Conditional Attributes for CoRE May 2022 3.2. Conditional Control Attributes Conditional Control Attributes define the time intervals between consecutive notifications as well as the cadence of the measurement of the conditions that trigger a notification. Conditional Control Attributes can be used to configure the internal server-driven sampling process for performing measurements of the conditions of a resource. One or more Conditional Control Attributes MAY be included in an Observe request. Conditional Control Attributes are defined below: +-------------------------------+---------+-----------------+ | Attribute | Name | Value | +-------------------------------+---------+-----------------+ | Minimum Period (s) | c.pmin | xs:decimal (>0) | | | | | | Maximum Period (s) | c.pmax | xs:decimal (>0) | | | | | | Minimum Evaluation Period (s) | c.epmin | xs:decimal (>0) | | | | | | Maximum Evaluation Period (s) | c.epmax | xs:decimal (>0) | | | | | | Confirmable Notification | c.con | xs:boolean | +-------------------------------+---------+-----------------+ Table 2: Conditional Control Attributes 3.2.1. Minimum Period (c.pmin) When present, the minimum period indicates the minimum time, in seconds, between two consecutive notifications (whether or not the resource state has changed). In the absence of this parameter, the minimum period is up to the server. The minimum period MUST be greater than zero otherwise the receiver MUST return a CoAP error code 4.00 "Bad Request" (or equivalent). A server MAY update the resource state with the last sampled value that occured during the "c.pmin" interval, after the "c.pmin" interval expires. Note: Due to finite quantization effects, the time between notifications may be greater than "c.pmin" even when the sampled value changes within the "c.pmin" interval. "c.pmin" may or may not be used to drive the internal sampling process. Koster, et al. Expires November 11, 2022 [Page 7] Internet-Draft Conditional Attributes for CoRE May 2022 3.2.2. Maximum Period (c.pmax) When present, the maximum period indicates the maximum time, in seconds, between two consecutive notifications (whether or not the resource state has changed). In the absence of this parameter, the maximum period is up to the server. The maximum period MUST be greater than zero and MUST be greater than, or equal to, the minimum period parameter (if present) otherwise the receiver MUST return a CoAP error code 4.00 "Bad Request" (or equivalent). 3.2.3. Minimum Evaluation Period (c.epmin) When present, the minimum evaluation period indicates the minimum time, in seconds, the client recommends to the server to wait between two consecutive measurements of the conditions of a resource since the client has no interest in the server doing more frequent measurements. When the minimum evaluation period expires after the previous measurement, the server MAY immediately perform a new measurement. In the absence of this parameter, the minimum evaluation period is not defined and thus not used by the server. The server MAY use "c.pmin", if defined, as a guidance on the desired measurement cadence. The minimum evaluation period MUST be greater than zero otherwise the receiver MUST return a CoAP error code 4.00 "Bad Request" (or equivalent). 3.2.4. Maximum Evaluation Period (c.epmax) When present, the maximum evaluation period indicates the maximum time, in seconds, the server MAY wait between two consecutive measurements of the conditions of a resource. When the maximum evaluation period expires after the previous measurement, the server MUST immediately perform a new measurement. In the absence of this parameter, the maximum evaluation period is not defined and thus not used by the server. The maximum evaluation period MUST be greater than zero and MUST be greater than the minimum evaluation period parameter (if present) otherwise the receiver MUST return a CoAP error code 4.00 "Bad Request" (or equivalent). 3.2.5. Confirmable Notification (c.con) When present with a value of 1 (True) in a query, the "c.con" attribute indicates a notification MUST be confirmable, i.e., the server MUST send the notification in a confirmable CoAP message, to request an acknowledgement from the client. When present with a value of 0 (False) in a query, the "c.con" attribute indicates a notification can be confirmable or non-confirmable, i.e., it can be sent in a confirmable or a non-confirmable CoAP message. Koster, et al. Expires November 11, 2022 [Page 8] Internet-Draft Conditional Attributes for CoRE May 2022 3.3. Server processing of Conditional Attributes Conditional Notification Attributes and Conditional Control Attributes may be present in the same query. However, they are not defined at multiple prioritization levels. The server sends a notification whenever any of the parameter conditions are met, upon which it updates its last notification value and time to prepare for the next notification. Only one notification occurs when there are multiple conditions being met at the same time. The reference code below illustrates the logic to determine when a notification is to be sent. bool notifiable( Resource * r ) { #define EDGE EXISTS(r->edge) #define BAND EXISTS(r->band) #define SCALAR_TYPE ( num_type == r->type ) #define STRING_TYPE ( str_type == r->type ) #define BOOLEAN_TYPE ( bool_type == r->type ) #define PMIN_EX ( r->last_sample_time - r->last_rep_time >= r->pmin ) #define PMAX_EX ( r->last_sample_time - r->last_rep_time > r->pmax ) #define LT_EX ( r->v < r->lt ^ r->last_rep_v < r->lt ) #define GT_EX ( r->v > r->gt ^ r->last_rep_v > r->gt ) #define ST_EX ( abs( r->v - r->last_rep_v ) >= r->st ) #define IN_BAND ( ( r->gt <= r->v && r->v <= r->lt ) || \ ( r->lt <= r->gt && r->gt <= r->v ) || \ ( r->v <= r->lt && r->lt <= r->gt ) ) #define VB_CHANGE ( r->vb != r->last_rep_vb ) #define VB_EDGE ( r->vb && r->edge || !r->vb && !r->edge ) #define VS_CHANGE ( r->vs != r->last_rep_vs ) return ( PMIN_EX && ( SCALAR_TYPE ? ( ( !BAND && ( GT_EX || LT_EX || ST_EX || PMAX_EX ) ) || ( BAND && IN_BAND && ( ST_EX || PMAX_EX) ) ) : STRING_TYPE ? ( VS_CHANGE || PMAX_EX ) : BOOLEAN_TYPE ? ( ( !EDGE && VB_CHANGE ) || ( EDGE && VB_CHANGE && VB_EDGE ) || PMAX_EX ) : false ) ); } Koster, et al. Expires November 11, 2022 [Page 9] Internet-Draft Conditional Attributes for CoRE May 2022 4. Implementation Considerations When "c.pmax" and "c.pmin" are equal, the expected behaviour is that notifications will be sent every (c.pmin == c.pmax) seconds. However, these notifications can only be fulfilled by the server on a best effort basis. Because "c.pmin" and "c.pmax" are designed as acceptable tolerance bounds for sending state updates, a query from an interested client containing equal "c.pmin" and "c.pmax" values must not be seen as a hard real-time scheduling contract between the client and the server. The use of the notification band minimum and maximum allow for a synchronization whenever a change in the resource value occurs. Theoretically this could occur in-line with the server internal sample period or the configuration of "c.epmin" and "c.epmax" values for determining the resource value. Implementors SHOULD consider the resolution needed before updating the resource, e.g. updating the resource when a temperature sensor value changes by 0.001 degree versus 1 degree. When a server has multiple observations with different measurement cadences as defined by the "c.epmin" and "c.epmax" values, the server MAY evaluate all observations when performing the measurement of any one observation. This specification defines conditional attributes that can be used with CoRE Observe relationships between CoAP clients and CoAP servers. However, it is recognised that the presence of 1 or more proxies between a client and a server can interfere with clients receiving resource updates, if a proxy does not supply resource representations when the value remains unchanged (eg if "c.pmax" is set, and the server sends multiple updates when the resource state contains the same value). A server SHOULD use the Max-Age option to mitigate this by setting Max-Age to be less than or equal to "c.pmax". 5. Security Considerations The security considerations in Section 11 of [RFC7252] apply. Additionally, the security considerations in Section 7 of [RFC7641] also apply. 6. IANA Considerations This memo requests a new Conditional Attributes registry to ensure attributes map uniquely to parameter names. Koster, et al.
