Hi all, Is there anything like ‘losetup’
that allows choosing encryption algorithm for a loopback
device that can be used on compression algorithms? Or in other words, when the
data passes through loopback device to a real storage
device, it can be filtered and the filter is compression instead of encryption;
when kernel ask for data in a storage device that is
mounted to a loopback device with compression, it
will be filtered again -- decompressed. If there is not a ready-to-use method for this, is there any
way I can implement the idea? TIA! Really appreciate any comments. Lei |
