When setting a directory's crypt context, ceph_dir_clear_complete() needs to

This patch adds a wrapper around __fscrypt_prepare_readdir() which will
ensure a directory is marked as non-complete if key status changes.

Hi Xiubo,

Here's a rebase of this patch.  I did some testing but since this branch
doesn't really have full fscrypt support, I couldn't even reproduce the
bug.  So, my testing was limited.
I'm planing not to update the wip-fscrypt branch any more, except the IO
path related fixes, which may introduce potential bugs each time as before.

Since the qa tests PR has finished and the tests have passed, so we are
planing to merge the first none IO part, around 27 patches. And then
pull the reset patches from wip-fscrypt branch.
I'm not sure if merging metadata and I/O path patches separately
makes sense.  What would a user do with just filename encryption?
Hi Ilya,

I think the IO ones should be followed soon.

Currently the filename ones have been well testes. And the contents will
be by passed for now.

Since this is just for Dev Preview feature IMO it should be okay (?)
I don't think there is such a thing as a Dev Preview feature when it
comes to the mainline kernel, particularly in the area of filesystems
and storage.  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.
Hi Greg,

Sounds reasonable to me.

I will leave this to Ilya.

Thanks!
For the record, the only reason I proposed merging them in multiple sets
was that it is a large set of changes and I was leery of regressions. I
don't see a lot of value in enabling just filename encryption without
the content piece.

I'd be fine with merging it all en-masse, though it's a bit more to wade
through if we end up having to bisect to track down a bug.

Hi Jeff,

After Ilya reviewing the testing's non-encrypt patches to make sure I won't do the rebase again and again for a large number of patches, I will begin to pick the contents patches from wip-fscrypt branch.

And then run the qa test again.

Thanks all :-)
