From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit 034dd34ff4916ec1f8f74e39ca3efb04eab2f791 upstream. Olga Kornievskaia says: "I ran into this oops in the nfsd (below) (4.10-rc3 kernel). To trigger this I had a client (unsuccessfully) try to mount the server with krb5 where the server doesn't have the rpcsec_gss_krb5 module built." The problem is that rsci.cred is copied from a svc_cred structure that gss_proxy didn't properly initialize. Fix that. [120408.542387] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP ...
