            Bug ID: 1724281
           Summary: Review Request: kafs-client - Basic startup and
                    utilities for in-kernel AFS filesystem
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux

Spec URL: https://www.infradead.org/~dhowells/kafs/kafs-client.spec
SRPM URL:
https://www.infradead.org/~dhowells/kafs/kafs-client-0.2-1.fc29.local.src.rpm
Description:

I would like to propose the kafs-client package for inclusion in Rawhide.  It
contains:

 (1) systemd scripts to configure the AFS client that's in the Linux kernel
(kafs) and now enabled in Fedora (bug 1616016); and to mount the AFS dynamic
root on /afs (in the filesystem-afs package now, bug 1720232).

 (2) A simple aklog program to convert Kerberos tickets into rxrpc keys for AFS
to use.

 (3) A request-key upcall program to handle DNS lookups on behalf of the kernel
for kafs.  This is more capable than the one in keyutils, which it overrides
for kafs lookups.

 (4) A utility to check/test/dump the cell database configuration.

 (5) Various manual pages for the concepts and programs involved.

Note that I haven't included manpages for the library - yet - as the functions
there are still in flux whilst I work on the kafs-utils package.  This does
not, however, prevent the AFS filesystem from being used as a basic network
filesystem.
