This series adds "metadata encryption" support to ext4 and f2fs via a
new device-mapper target dm-default-key.  dm-default-key encrypts all
data on a block device that isn't already encrypted by the filesystem.

Except for the passthrough support, dm-default-key is basically the same
as the proposed dm-inlinecrypt which omits that feature
(https://lore.kernel.org/dm-devel/20241016232748.134211-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/).

I am sending this out for reference, as dm-default-key (which Android
has been using for a while) hasn't previously been sent to the lists in
full, and there has been interest in it.  However, my current impression
is that this feature will need to be redesigned as a filesystem native
feature in order to make it upstream.  If that is indeed the case, then
IMO it would make sense to merge dm-inlinecrypt in the mean time instead
(or add its functionality to dm-crypt) so that anyone who just wants
"dm-crypt + inline encryption hardware" gets a solution for that.

Eric Biggers (4):
  block: export blk-crypto symbols required by dm-default-key
  block: add the bi_skip_dm_default_key flag
  dm-default-key: add target for filesystem metadata encryption
  ext4,f2fs: support metadata encryption via dm-default-key
