It should be ready for users at least to some extent. So > my question stands: what would a user do with just filename encryption? I think how this merges is up to you guys and the kernel practices. Merging only the filename encryption is definitely of *limited* utility, but I don't think it's totally pointless -- the data versus metadata paths are different and you are protecting against somewhat different vulnerabilities and threat models with them. For instance, MDS logs dump filenames, but OSD logs do not dump object data. There's some obvious utility there even if you basically trust your provider, or run your own cluster but want to be more secure about sending logs via ceph-post-file. -Greg > > Thanks, > > Ilya >
