Cryptsetup 2.3.2 Release Notes
==============================
Stable bug-fix release.

All users of cryptsetup 2.x should upgrade to this version.

Changes since version 2.3.1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* Support compilation with json-c library version 0.14.

* Update FAQ document for some LUKS2 specific information.

* Add option to dump content of LUKS2 unbound keyslot:
    cryptsetup luksDump --unbound -S <slot> <device>
  or optionally with --master-key-file option.

  The slot number --key-slot (-S) option is mandatory here.

  An unbound keyslot store a key is that is not assigned to data
  area on disk (LUKS2 allows to store arbitrary keys).

* Rephrase some error messages and remove redundant end-of-lines.

* Add support for discards (TRIM) for standalone dm-integrity devices.
  Linux kernel 5.7 adds support for optional discard/TRIM operation
  over dm-integrity devices.

  It is now supported through --allow-discards integritysetup option.
  Note you need to add this flag in all activation calls.

  Note that this option cannot be used for LUKS2 authenticated encryption
  (that uses dm-integrity for storing additional per-sector metadata).

* Fix cryptsetup-reencrypt to work on devices that do not allow
  direct-io device access.

* Fix a crash in the BitLocker-compatible code error path.

* Fix Veracrypt compatible support for longer (>64 bytes) passphrases.
  It allows some older images to be correctly opened again.
  The issue was introduced in version 2.3.1.
