[PATCH v2] common/encrypt: allow the use of 'fscrypt:' as key prefix

[Date Prev] [Date Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Date Index] [Thread Index]



fscrypt keys have used the $FSTYP as prefix.  However this format is being
deprecated -- newer kernels already allow the usage of the generic
'fscrypt:' prefix for ext4 and f2fs.  This patch allows the usage of this
new prefix for testing filesystems that have never supported the old
format, but keeping the $FSTYP prefix for filesystems that support it, so
that old kernels can be tested.

Changes since v1:
- ubifs now follows into the default case (i.e. to use the 'fscrypt' key
  prefix)
- dropped local variable from _get_fs_keyprefix()
