AFS: Implement an autocell mount capability [ver #2]
Implement the ability for the root directory of a mounted AFS filesystem to accept lookups of arbitrary directory names, to interpet the names as the names of cells, to look the cell names up in the DNS for AFSDB records and to mount the root.cell volume of the nominated cell on the pseudo-directory created by lookup. This facility is requested by passing: -o autocell to the mountpoint for which this is desired, usually the /afs mount. To use this facility, a DNS upcall program is required for AFSDB records. This can be obtained from: http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/afs/dns.afsdb.c It should be compiled with -lresolv and -lkeyutils and installed as, say: /usr/sbin/dns.afsdb Then the following line needs to be added to /sbin/request-key.conf: create dns_resolver afsdb:* * /usr/sbin/dns.afsdb %k This can be tested by mounting AFS, say: insmod dns_resolver.ko insmod af-rxrpc.ko insmod kafs.ko rootcell=grand.central.org mount -t afs "#grand.central.org:root.cell." /afs -o autocell and doing: ls /afs/grand.central.org/ which should show: archive/ cvs/ doc/ local/ project/ service/ software/ user/ www/ if it works.
