[PATCH] device-mapper: dm-crypt: new IV mode ESSIV
This patch adds a new IV mode ''encrypted sector|salt IV'' described in http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.device-mapper.dm-crypt/472 To use ESSIV, set the ivmode (using the new syntax) to "essiv:<hash>". "hash" should be a valid cryptoapi hash. This, for example, is a valid dm-target line: 0 200 crypt aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 00000000000000000000000000000000 0 /dev/loop/5 0 Signed-Off-By: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com> Signed-Off-By: Christophe Saout <christophe@saout.de> Signed-Off-By: Fruhwirth Clemens <clemens@endorphin.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
