[PATCH 1/2] Enable the in-kernel ID mapping upcall mechanism

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



To solve deadlocks that can occur between the rpc.idmapd daemon
and the kernel, enables the in-kernel upcall mechanism that 
uses the key rings to start the user/group ids.
