Hello, I am using cryptsetup-1.2 without luks and I have noticed that while removing the mapped device using 'cryptsetup remove', cryptsetup does a read operation. I have found that this is not true in cryptsetup-1.5.1. Is this a side effect of a change or was this explicitly modified. If it was intentional, could someone point me to the patch.
Can you be more specific? Which read operation, how did you see it - strace? And what's the real problem? I do not see any explicit read for removal of plain device. Note that a lot of scanning can happen through udev rules when some device is created, modified (it scans device after close for write) etc. Milan _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
