Hi,

I would like to draw your attention to #1105747 [1] which affects
enterprise installations where kerberized cifs mounts are used.  I am
not sure if anybody is aware of this issue.

Right now, the trixie kernel and cifs-utils do not fit together
(c.f. reported bug above).  Some more background I could find:

  • cifs-utils added a new mount option upcall_target [2] recently
  • the corresponding linux patch landed in the 6.13 kernel tree [3]

Perhaps the patch can be backported to trixie's kernel version.

Thanks and best regards,

  Andi
