Oh, I should mention that this is all in my ceph-fscrypt-fnames branch:

    https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux.git/

This all still under heavy development, so I'm open to suggestions and
review. If you're daring and want to test with it, please do.

I do think this has the potential to be a "killer feature" for ceph (and
maybe other network filesystems). Being able to store data securely on
an otherwise "public" cluster seems like a very nice thing to have.

Cheers,
