Olga Kornievskaia reports: Problem: linux client mounting linux server using rc4-hmac-md5 enctype. gssd fails with create a context after receiving a reply from the server. Diagnose: putting printout statements in the server kernel and kerberos libraries revealed that client and server derived different integrity keys. Server kernel code was at fault due the the commit [aglo@skydive linux-pnfs]$ git show 411b5e05617593efebc06241dbc56f42150f2abe Trond: The problem is that since it relies on virt_to_page(), you cannot call sg_set_buf() for data in the const section.
