So there actually isn't much that can be done with the > keyring ID. But sure, if it's needed later we can add an API to get it. Yeah, I was thinking about for testing/debugging purposes so that we could use keyctl to examine the per-file system keyring and see what keys are attached to a file system. This is only going to be usable by root, so I guess we can just try to figure it out by going through /proc/keys and searching by sb->s_id. If there are ambiguities that make this hard to do, we can add an interface to make this easier. - Ted _______________________________________________ Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list Linux-f2fs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel
