Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Enable the in-kernel ID mapping upcall mechanism
Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2011 15:26:02 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1320956763-17935-2-git-send-email-steved@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1320956763-17935-1-git-send-email-steved@redhat.com>

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.
