These patches build on the patchset labelled "AF_RXRPC socket family and AFS rewrite". The patches are also available for http download. Firstly, the patches fix a number of bugs in AF_RXRPC: http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/09-af_rxrpc-own-workqueues.diff http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/10-af_rxrpc-fixes.diff Secondly, they fix some bugs in the AFS filesystem: http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/11-afs-callback-wq.diff http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/12-afs-vlocation.diff http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/13-afs-multimount.diff And finally, they add security support to AFS: http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/14-afs-rxrpc-key.diff http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/15-afs-nameidata-key.diff http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/16-afs-security.diff A security key is acquired by running the klog program: http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/klog.c This is compiled by: make klog CFLAGS="-Wall -g" LDLIBS="-lcrypto -lcrypt -lkrb4 -lkeyutils" And then run by: ./klog Note that at the moment this is a rough and ready test program that has the username, realm, password and proposed key timeout compiled in. Note also that it will only talk to the AFS kaserver. If a security key is acquired, then all subsequent operations - including VL lookups and mounts - performed with that session keyring will be authenticated using that key. The key can be viewed like so: [root@andromeda ~]# keyctl show Session Keyring -3 --alswrv 0 0 keyring: _ses.3268 2 --alswrv 0 0 \_ keyring: _uid.0 111416553 --als--v 0 0 \_ rxrpc: afs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx David - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
