[RFC PATCH v2 0/2] dm-inlinecrypt: add target for inline block device encryption
Posted by Eric Biggers 1 month, 1 week ago
This is yet another proposal for dm-inlinecrypt, this one resulting from
the conversation at
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20240916085741.1636554-2-quic_mdalam@quicinc.com/T/#u.
This brings in the work that was already done in Android's
dm-default-key but drops the passthrough support, as it doesn't seem
like that will go anywhere upstream anytime soon.  This makes the
proposal suitable as a replacement for dm-crypt only.

Compared to the other patch linked above, this patch addresses a large
number of issues, the main ones being mentioned at
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20240921185519.GA2187@quark.localdomain/

Changed in v2:
- Split block exports into a separate patch.
- Return the key from STATUSTYPE_TABLE.  This is a misfeature, but it's
  needed to comply with the device-mapper UAPI.
- Don't pass uninitialized key to blk_crypto_evict_key().
- Use {} instead of {0}.
- Simplify inlinecrypt_prepare_ioctl().
