Hiyas,
attached is a patch that adds the device name and target name to the LUKS
password prompt, e.g. it will look like:
# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/loop0 foo
Enter LUKS passphrase for /dev/loop0 (foo):
The intention of the patch is to make it easier to recognize which password
is required if one uses cryptsetup in scripts, e.g. at startup.
The patch was originally created by Bill Nottingham for Fedora and only
mentioned the device name.
Regards,
Till
