Title: #5675: KCM: Unset _SSS_LOOPS
sumit-bose commented:
"""
Hi,
I think `sssd_kcm` does not have to set `_SSS_LOOPS`. The variable was added to
prevent an SSSD component to call into SSSD with the same request again, e.g. a
user lookup for `user_abc` would cause a `getpwnam("user_abc")` in an SSSD
component which would cause a recursive circle. The check if the variable is
set is done in the client libraries (`src/sss_client/common.c`). Since
`sssd_kcm` is working independently of the other SSSD components, especially
the nss responder, and the kcm client side in libkrb5 of course does not check
for `_SSS_LOOPS` to protect `sssd_kcm` from calling into itself the variable is
not needed.
HTH
bye,
Sumit
