On AIX, there are two kernel extensions, and each
is loaded by a utility in src/export, cfgexport,
and cfgafs. This utility calls the AIX "sysconfig"
system call to load the extension into the kernel.
Historically this usually works so error messages
are not often seen, though the programs have
facilities to display error messages.
Error messages from the loading of kernel extensions
are displayed using the execerror utility. Beginning
with AIX 4.2, this utility was moved from
/etc/execerror to /usr/sbin. The AFS cfg utlities
were never updated. If an error occurs during
loading of one of the extensions, the user receives
the following misleading error:
SYS_KLOAD: No such file or directory
This error is not actually the result of the failed
extension load, but actually the result of the next
source code line:
perror("SYS_KLOAD");
This error is actually a statement that the utility
cannot find execerror.
Update the utilities to call execerror from the
correct location starting with AIX 4.2.

AFS is a distributed file system that enables users to share and access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many different machines, but are available to users on every machine. OpenAFS 1.0 was originally released by IBM under the terms of the IBM Public License 1.0 (IPL10). For details on IPL10 see the LICENSE file in this directory. The current OpenAFS distribution is licensed under a combination of the IPL10 and many other licenses as granted by the relevant copyright holders. The LICENSE file in this directory contains more details, thought it is not a comprehensive statement. See INSTALL for information about building and installing OpenAFS on various platforms. See CODING for developer information and guidelines. See NEWS for recent changes to OpenAFS.
