Actually using text format for metadata works pretty well even for on-disk metadata (it was one of good ideas in lvm2, just there it was non-standard text format). I want to use something easily readable by common simple library (libjson-c is the only dependence we use). JSON is very simple format for representation of data we need (with exception of storing uint64 and small binary data that need some easy common tricks). The reason for this universal format is that you can manipulate with unknown objects (keyslot metadata for slot you do not understand in core code). (Note it is used only for metadata not the raw key material for luks1 keyslot.) We can probably easily use binary representation of JSON (like ubjson) or one of the many such formats but in principle it is the same. m. _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
