Software Inventory YANG module based on Software Identifiers
draft-birkholz-yang-swid-02
Abstract
This document provides a YANG module definition that enables a
computing context to provide detailed information about installed
software components. The structure of the module is based on the
Concise Software Identifier draft and therefore also strongly related
to the ISO 19770-2:2015 Software Identifiers standard. Both
standards provide no interface to transport the SWID tag information
between system entities and this document leverages the wide adoption
of YANG based management interfaces.

1. Introduction
Software Identification Tags (SWID tags [SWID]) or their binary
equivalent - the CoSWID tags [I-D.ietf-sacm-coswid] - provide a
versatile document standard that can be installed in conjunction with
a software component on a system entity. There is no standard
interface to access, export, or transfer these tag document between
system entities. The following YANG module enables full, fine-
grained access to every attribute and metadata defined in the SWID
standards via a YANG-based management interface. In addition, access
to all SWID documents - encoded in XML or CBOR - is enabled by
corresponding SWID inventory statement. Changes to the SWID
inventory can be emitted via SWID-Updates YANG notifications.
2. YANG SWID module
Every node defined is read-only, as there is no installation or
deployment capability associated with tag information. The
descriptions of each attribute are derived from the SWID XML schema
definition provided by ISO:
http://standards.iso.org/iso/19770/-2/2015-current/schema.xsd
The definitions were adapted and modified if appropriate.
The following summary illustrates the module in tree format. The
complete YANG module can be found in Appendix A.

reporting on the informal or colloquial representation of
the software is important (for example, if for a certain
business process, an organization recognizes that it must
have, for example "ServicePack 1" or later of a specific
product installed on all devices, they can use the revision
data value to quickly identify any devices that do not meet
this requirement).
Depending on how a software organizations distributes
revisions, this value could be specified in a primary (if
distributed as an upgrade) or supplemental (if distributed
as a patch) SWID tag.";
