Hello, I would also like to enable ext4 encryption on our product. We're using a 4.1.15 kernel. Our kernel has CONFIG_KEYS and CONFIG_EXT4_ENCRYPTION enabled and I made sure to have an up to date version of e2fsprogs. We're using 1.43.8. Unfortunately, I get a kernel panic whenever I try the above steps show below. Any ideas on what I could do next would be extremely appreciated. Thank you! -Davis root@target:~# uname -r 4.1.15+ga1644c9 root@target:~# e4crypt add_key -S 0x1234 Enter passphrase (echo disabled): Added key with descriptor [080b217fb3239f3d] root@target:~# mkdir
