It is nice to know that user-space devs read this list, too :-) I haven't written any instructions on getting ecryptfs-utils working in Android yet, but this is something I would like to do. Importing keyutils into aosp is a snap, but not so much for ecryptfs-utils. Unfortunately, the changes I made aren't very merge-friendly, but I can reformat them inside appropriate if-def blocks (i.e. #ifdef ANDROID... #endif). I could then send you a patch (or point you to a git repo) based on the 103 release. sound ok? - -James M -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlJUINwACgkQ4Arkm0Hw/FJ8QgCfXiWIefB4zHEfM4esS+nwbIUf /ewAn2NhwEQdhyshdoEyQzbDEWd95nvq =ZT+y -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ecryptfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
