Hi all,
With the core rxgk standardization work pretty well nailed down (the
rxgk-afs integration is sadly lagging), I went ahead and cleaned up my
implementation enough that it's worth submitting to gerrit for broader
review (changes 10561 through 10576). I split things up pretty heavily,
so that hopefully the chunks are more manageable to review individually.
I also have some integration with the pthreaded bos work, up at
https://github.com/kaduk/openafs/commits/rxgkng -- I opted to not use a
merge commit and instead have squashed a snapshot of the pthread-bos work
into a single commit, in case I do want to submit those commits to gerrit
(though I have not yet done so). I have only tested with MIT krb5's
gssapi library; reports from people building against heimdal will be
useful. (The system heimdal on my mac is too old to have
gss_pseudo_random(), alas.)
I've also made an RXGK "todo" page on the wiki
(http://wiki.openafs.org/RXGKToDo/) with a list of the known outstanding
tasks. I'm sure there are more tasks that have yet to be documented; as
we come across them, please try to keep the list updated. If any of the
items are unclear, we can of course discuss them on this list or the
jabber room or elsewhere. When I first started working on rxgk, I think I
said something about it probably being best to have just one person
working on the core implementation, and more hands would be handy later
on. We're probably past that point, and more help is definitely useful at
this point.
So, here's my "call for help". There is a lot left to do in order to get
everything in OpenAFS capable of using rxgk, and more hands will make it
go faster.
-Ben
