Bug Description

Hi, please see this thread. This makes openafs 1.8.10 unusable on a system upgraded to mantic with the 6.5 kernel. Taking certain paths will reliably and reproducibly crash the whole system. In my case, it was triggered by a PATH component pointing to a directory on AFS. The directory contains a file with a name greater than 16 characters and the system instantly crashes after bash calls openat() on the directory.

It does not appear that a fix has been upstreamed yet. Perhaps a deliberate FTBFS for the kernel modules is the best interim move.
