I would like to replace the KRB5_SUPPORTED_ENCTYPES macro so that there is finer granularity about what enctype support is built in to the kernel and then advertised by it. The /proc/fs/nfsd/supported_krb5_enctypes file is a legacy API that advertises supported enctypes to rpc.svcgssd (I think?). It simply prints the value of the KRB5_SUPPORTED_ENCTYPES macro, so it will need to be replaced with something that can instead display exactly which enctypes are configured and built into the SunRPC layer. Completely decommissioning such APIs is hard. Instead, add a file that is managed by SunRPC's GSS Kerberos mechanism, which is authoritative about enctype support status. A subsequent patch will replace /proc/fs/nfsd/supported_krb5_enctypes with a symlink to this new file.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
