Shared library for cryptsetup

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

 



Hi all,

I would like to see the shared library included in the next release (ie:
establishing a somewhat stable API+ABI). I know this has been focused on
in the past and some work has already been done - but: I would really
like to see this to be an official part of a release in the near future.

Why? My project "tokentube" is an integration component between LUKS and
credential verification via PAM on Linux. It allows for users to use
their Linux username and password to unlock LUKS during system startup
(instead of a dedicated encryption passphrase). There's a presenation
online in case you want to know more about tokentube:

It would be great if I could employ a custom binary to do the
initialization (which includes adding a new key to LUKS) instead of
calling the cryptsetup binary from configuration scripts.

Regards,
Jürgen
