Subject: Announce loop-AES-v2.2a file/swap crypto package
Date: Wed, 08 Sep 2004 22:20:41 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <413F5B89.4AF97168@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
loop-AES changes since previous release:
- Fixed multi-key ioctl incompatibility with sparc64 boxes running 64 bit
kernel and 32 bit userland. Fix enabled for 2.4.26 and later 2.4 kernels.
2.6 kernels were not affected.
- Added key scrubbing support for AES loop cipher. This feature is not
enabled by default because it doubles storage space requirement for loop
encryption keys. To enable, add KEYSCRUB=y parameter to loop module make
command. (2.4 and 2.6 kernels only).
- Added multi-key compatibility to losetup and mount -p option handling.
- Fixed incompatibility with 2.6.8.1 kernel struct bio handling.
- Small optimization to bio I/O barrier support. Also added support for
queue->issue_flush_fn() I/O barrier calls. (2.6 kernels only).
- Added workaround for kernel bug that causes I/O errors on -EWOULDBLOCK I/O
elevator failures (2.6 kernels only).
