[PATCH 1/2 v3] EXT4: Secure Delete: Zero out file data

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

 



The first patch adds a new flag, EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_ZERO,
to ext4_free_blocks. This flag causes causes blocks to be
zerod before they are freed.  Files that have the EXT4_SECRM_FL
attribute flag on will have their blocks zerod when
they are released.  The EXT4_SECRM_FL attribute flag can
be enabled useing chattr +s

v1->v2
Removed check for discard mount option and replaced with
check for secure discard and discard_zeroes_data

Added BLKDEV_DISCARD_SECURE to the sb_issue_discard call

v2->v3
Removed code for discard.  A seperate patch will
be done to add that code in the block layer
