Here's an example with dm-crypt: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/5d44e50e-4309-830b-79f6-f5d888b1ef69@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ dm-crypt is a bit special at the moment, because it has direct support for trusted keys. For interfacing with other parts of the kernel like ecryptfs or EVM, you have to create encrypted keys rooted to the trusted keys and use those. The kernel documentation has an example: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.13/security/keys/trusted-encrypted.html If you backport this series, you can include the typo fix spotted by David. I'll send out a revised series, but given that a regression fix I want to rebase on hasn't been picked up for 3 weeks now, I am not in a hurry.
