Subject: [LSF/MM TOPIC] Unified keys for NFS, CIFS and AFS for security data
Date: Fri, 21 Jan 2011 15:34:27 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3599.1295624067@redhat.com> (raw)


I'd like to propose a discussion topic for the LSF: how best to implement a
common key type for use by NFS, CIFS and AFS such that, say, a kerberos key
can be encapsulated within one and then be pulled out by various filesystems.

Furthermore, it would be necessary to allow the request_key() upcall mechanism
to perform GSSAPI queries.
