Hi,
Following are my setup details :
=> AIX version 6
=> MIT Kerberos version 1.12.4
=> Windows Server 2008 KDC.
Our kerberos authentication API dynamically loads MIT Kerberos and calls
its APIs via function pointer. It works fine in Linux.64 and Windows.
We have done two file changes for building MIT Kerberos in AIX:
1) MitKerberos/1.12.4/src/include/k5-platform.h
350,351c350,354
<
< #if !defined(SHARED) && !defined(_WIN32)
---
> /*
> * Making a fix for AIX: as we don't want finish to be static
function in
> * case of AIX platform. Build fails otherwise.
> */
> #if !defined(SHARED) && !defined(_WIN32) && !defined(_AIX)
2) MitKerberos/1.12.4/src/plugins/kdb/db2/Makefile.in

Issue 1 : kinit fails with illegal instruction
=> Our kerberos authentication API which uses MIT Kerberos was failing
while acquiring keytab credentials. I found that kinit executable generated
on building MIT Kerberos itself fails in any case (username-password,
keytab, simple execution without arguments). On debugging i found some
memory corruption in dnsglue.c->krb5int_dns_init(). After the malloc call
in this function, the arguments values got corrupted.
Reverting following commit fixed this issue (how ?):
https://github.com/krb5/krb5/commit/a505552a8d9d1c0e228236ae7f5f0422175f3b62?diff=split
Issue 2 (after fixing issue 1) : On running kinit, assertion error occurs @
k5-thread.h->k5_mutex_lock()
The assert subroutine failed: r == 0, file ../../include/k5-thread.h, line
384
Stacktrace :

I checked and the return code from k5-thread.h->k5_os_mutex_lock() is 22
i.e. invalid mutex.
Anyone got any idea what's going wrong here ?

Vipul
