Hi! As the subject states, I'm a bit confused wrt. EXT4_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_PWSALT. Will common fscrypt userspace depend on it? IIUC you want to store some salt to seed the user password. But what if /home/rw and /home/dags have different keys? Is it okay to use the same salt for both keys? Or is it an ad-hoc solution to allow an encrypted filesystem root because you need a way to store the seed on the same filesystem but not as file since all files are encrypted? Wouldn't a xattr stored in the filesystem root directory also do it? Long story short, I'm not sure whether we really need this ioctl command in UBIFS and what the designated semantics are. :-) Thanks, //richard -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
