Message-ID: <20260310230228.F37BBC19423@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: crash_dump: don't log dm-crypt key bytes in read_key_from_user_keying
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
crash_dump-dont-log-dm-crypt-key-bytes-in-read_key_from_user_keying.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: crash_dump: don't log dm-crypt key bytes in read_key_from_user_keying
Date: Sat, 28 Feb 2026 00:00:09 +0100
When debug logging is enabled, read_key_from_user_keying() logs the first
8 bytes of the key payload and partially exposes the dm-crypt key. Stop
logging any key bytes.
