Announce loop-AES-v1.7a file/swap crypto package

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



loop-AES changes since previous release:
- Fixed bug where running 'swapon -a' in some encrypted swap error cases
  didn't correctly return error status.
- Added "-C nnn" option to losetup and "-o itercountk=nnn" option to mount
  that iterate encryption key nnn thousand times through AES-256. Based on
  code from Sami Farin.
- build-initrd.sh updated to understand losetup "-C nnn" option.
- loop.c-2.5.patched updated with fixes from 2.5.53
- Added workaround for signal locking changes in RedHat 8.1 beta kernel.

Additional ciphers package changes since previous release:
- Added correct little-endian on-disk format to serpent loop cipher module.
  Code still defaults to incorrect big-endian on-disk format. Losetup "-I 1"
  option and mount "-o loinit=1" option enable use of little-endian on-disk
  format.
