Valid ciphers and modes for dmcrypt?

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

 



All,

I've just been doing some experimenting with the dmsetup command; I have a small
file attached via loopback and have run a number of variants of the following:

echo '0 32768 crypt <cipher-mode> 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef 0 /dev/loop0
0' | dmsetup create dmtest

If I use "serpent-lrw-benbi" or "serpent-xts-benbi" everything works fine but
when I try "twofish-lrw-benbi" or "twofish-xts-benbi" or a number of other
twofish-* combinations it fails with:
  device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument
  Command failed

cat'ing /proc/crypto shows entries for lrw(serpent), xts(serpent) as well as
lrw(twofish) and xts(twofish).

Why is it that I can't seem to combine twofish with either xts or lrw?

What are the valid combinations for cipher-mode and is there a way to get a
canonical list out of the system?
