The patch titled eCryptfs: set inode key only once per crypto operation has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was ecryptfs-set-inode-key-only-once-per-crypto-operation.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: eCryptfs: set inode key only once per crypto operation From: Trevor Highland <trevor.highland@xxxxxxxxx> There is no need to keep re-setting the same key for any given eCryptfs inode. This patch optimizes the use of the crypto API and helps performance a bit.
