From: Andy Adamson <andros@xxxxxxxxxx> The kernel gss_cl_ctx stores the context lifetime in gc_expiry, set by gssd in do_downcall() called by process_krb5_upcall(). The lifetime value is currently not related at all to the Kerberos TGS lifetime. It is either set to the value of gssd -t <timeout>, or to a kernel default of 3600 seconds. Most of the time the gssd -t command line is not set, and a timeout value of zero was sent to the kernel triggering the use of the 3600 second kernel default timeout. In order for the kernel to properly know when to renew a context, or to stop buffering writes for a context about to expire, the gc_expiry value needs to reflect the credential lifetime used to create the context. Note that gss_inquire_cred returns the number of seconds for which the context remains valid in the lifetime_rec parameter. Send the actual TGS remaining lifetime to the kernel. It can still be overwritten by the gssd -t command line option, or set to the kernel default if the gss_inquire_cred call fails (which sets the lifetime_rec to zero).
