Building the current version of OpenAFS on macOS Monterey arm64 results in the following error: error: globals with authenticated null values are currently unsupported afs_ucred_t afs_osi_cred; To avoid this problem, replace the global in question by a pointer to a dynamically allocated afs_osi_cred (afs_osi_credp). Ideally we would create a new credential with kauth_cred_create(), but this function is not well documented and using it results in crashes. Moreover, if the kauth_cred_dup() function were still available (private since XNU 1456.1.26 - macOS 10.6), we could also duplicate the current user's credential during startup (like commit f40f466c7f did for BSD).

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.
