As part of the KIP-500 effort to remove Kafka's ZooKeeper dependency, we need a broker-side API to alter these settings.

It will require ALTER permissions on the CLUSTER resource.  It will return CLUSTER_AUTHORIZATION_FAILED if the user has insufficient permissions.

It will be will be sent to the controller, and will return NOT_CONTROLLER if the receiving broker is not the controller.

AlterScramUsers

alterScramUsers will delete, create, or change SCRAM users.

Deletions are done by user name.

Alterations will create the given user if it doesn't exist, or alter it if it does.

It will require DESCRIBE permissions on the CLUSTER resource.  It will return CLUSTER_AUTHORIZATION_FAILED if the user has insufficient permissions.

It will return RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND if a user is requested to be described but that user does not exist/has no credentials.  Note that DescribeScramUserCredentialsResult will not consider such a username to be part of its users() result list, and this RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND error by itself will not prevent the future returned by all() from completing successfully.

It will return DUPLICATE_RESOURCE if a user is requested to be described twice.  Note that DescribeScramUserCredentialsResult will consider such a username to be part of its users() result list, and this will cause the future returned by all() to complete exceptionally.

AlterScramUserCredentials

alterScramUserCredentials will create or change SCRAM user credentials.

Alterations will create the given user credential if it doesn't exist, or alter it if it does.

Code Block
public abstract class UserScramCredentialAlteration {
    private final String user;
}

public class UserScramCredentialUpsertion extends UserScramCredentialAlteration {
    private final ScramCredentialInfo info;
    private final byte[] salt;
    private final byte[] password;

    // There will be one constructor that randomly generates a salt, and one that accepts a pre-defined salt.
}

public class UserScramCredentialDeletion extends UserScramCredentialAlteration {
    private final ScramMechanism mechanism;
}

public class AlterScramUserCredentialsOptions extends AbstractOptions<AlterScramUserCredentialsOptions> {}

// interface Admin
default AlterScramUserCredentialsResult alterScramUserCredentials(List<UserScramCredentialAlteration> alterations) {
    return alterScramUserCredentials( alterations, new AlterScramUserCredentialsOptions());
}

// interface Admin
AlterScramUserCredentialsResult alterScramUserCredentials(List<UserScramCredentialAlteration> alterations,
                                      AlterScramUserCredentialsOptions options);

public class AlterUserScramCredentialsResult {
    public Map<String, KafkaFuture<Void>> values();
    public KafkaFuture<Void> all(); // completes successfully only if everything in values() does
}

If any of the operations associated with a single user can't be done, none of the operations will be done.  On the other hand, operations could succeed for one user but fail for another, different user.

If a user doesn't exist and we add a credential for them, they will be created.  If a user exists and we remove their last credential, they will be deleted.

The AlterScramUserCredentialsRequest and AlterScramUserCredentialsResponse implement the new API.

An addition A removal or alteration will return INVALIDUNACCEPTABLE_REQUEST CREDENTIAL if an empty user name is passed, or an invalid number of iterations , or a duplicate user name.  Note that if the number of iterations is set to -1, the server-side default will be used(less than the minimum required for the mechanism or more than a hard-coded max of 16,384) is passed.

DUPLICATE_RESOURCE will be returned if a user appears as both an upsertion and a deletion in the same request.

UNSUPPORTED_SASL_MECHANISM will be returned if the broker does not recognize the requested SASL mechanism.

A removal will return a new an error code, RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND, if it was instructed to delete a user, but that user was not foundcredential that did not exist.

The RPC will require ALTER on CLUSTER.  It will return CLUSTER_AUTHORIZATION_FAILED if the user has insufficient permissions.

  It will be will be sent to the controller , and will return NOT_CONTROLLER if the receiving broker is not the controller.
