There are now 2 switches. But in order to test these switches you'll need to re-establish the baseline without any patches. See: 1) same_cpu_crypt https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm.git/commit/?h=dm-for-3.20&id=a3a0e3e8b98d9ada663023937eaddd7e54961a7d 2) submit_from_crypt_cpus https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm.git/commit/?h=dm-for-3.20&id=0f5d8e6ee758f7023e4353cca75d785b2d4f6abe Please make sure you're using latest rebased dm-for-3.20 branch (tip is commit b3c5fd3052492f1b8d060799d4f18be5a5438add). Please test the 4 different permutations these flags can enable (so it looks like it'd be runs against 5 different dm-cryot.ko permutations).
