This patch series is based on Eric’s work posted at: https://lore.kernel.org/all/ecbb7ea8-11f6-30c1-ad77-bd984c52ca33@quicinc.com/ Eric’s patches introduce a new dm target, dm-inlinecrypt, to support inline block-device encryption. The implementation builds on the work previously done in Android’s dm-default-key, but intentionally drops passthrough support, as that functionality does not appear likely to be accepted upstream in the near future. With this limitation, dm-inlinecrypt is positioned as a practical replacement for dm-crypt, rather than a general passthrough mechanism. On top of Eric’s series, keyring key support is added in dm-inlinecrypt. Thus, both keyring key and hex key are feasible for dm-inlinecrypt. In addition, dm-inlinecrypt.rst is added as the user-guide of dm-inlinecrypt.
