Subject: [PATCH 1/1] GSSD: Pass GSS_context lifetime to the kernel.
Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2012 15:58:10 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1346961490-2624-1-git-send-email-andros@netapp.com> (raw)
From: Andy Adamson <andros@netapp.com>
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).
