Please set --libexecdir=/usr/lib/$pkgname in configure. Arch Linux do not use /usr/libexec.

Also, could you consider enabling krb5 support? You can achieve this by adding krb5 into depends and add --enable-krb5 in configure arguments.

Edit: It seems that enabling krb5 is not a good idea because we cannot use local username/password to login.

when will this package be adopted by official repository? it has been a year since KSMB is introduced in LTS kernel (5.15), and the next TLS (6.1) is coming.

Yeah don't worry I've seen the communication. The flags got added today, I just had work stuff.

If anyone's seeing intermittent worker process crashes like:

ksmbd[910]: [ksmbd-worker/910]: ERROR: Recv() error Out of memory [-5]
ksmbd[909]: [ksmbd.mountd/909]: ERROR: WARNING: child process exited abnormally: 910
ksmbd[909]: [ksmbd.mountd/909]: ERROR: Fatal IPC error. Terminating. Check dmesg.
ksmbd[909]: [ksmbd.mountd/909]: ERROR: can't execute kill 910: No such process
ksmbd[909]: [ksmbd.mountd/909]: INFO: Exiting. Bye!

I have a simple fix to work around the issue by raising the netlink socket buffer size. The patch for 3.4.5 can be found at https://github.com/database64128/ksmbd-tools/tree/nl-skb-size-3.4.5.

The workaround is being discussed at https://github.com/cifsd-team/ksmbd-tools/pull/277. While it does seem to work, the ksmbd maintainer raised some concerns about memory usage on embedded devices, and is looking for a better solution.

@database64128

Both linux and linux-lts started providing KSMBD-MODULE a few weeks ago, after I pinged the maintainer in the Arch Matrix group.

You're the reason it got added? Nice

@fow0ryl:

  1. Arch does not have a "recommended" kernel.
  2. Both linux and linux-lts started providing KSMBD-MODULE a few weeks ago, after I pinged the maintainer in the Arch Matrix group.
  3. You can use my meta package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ksmbd-module-meta to provide KSMBD-MODULE.

fow0ryl commented on 2022-08-23 17:35 (UTC)

Adding KSMBD-MODULE as dependency was a poor idea, for all users not using the latest kernel...

When using i.e. the recommended kernel 5.15.nn there is no "provides KSMBD-MODULE" . This requires changing to 5.19 kernel to fullfil the dependency :(

Great, it works now, thanks!
