Control: retitle -1 cryptsetup: improving passdev One further idea for future work on passdev
VIII) Not blindly trying through fstypes in the mount Right now it goes through a fixed list and tries them one after another. In principle that works, but it can leave ugly messages in the kernel log, e.g.: Sep 18 01:33:53 heisenberg kernel: EXT4-fs (sdb2): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem Sep 18 01:33:53 heisenberg kernel: EXT4-fs (sdb2): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem Sep 18 01:33:53 heisenberg kernel: EXT4-fs (sdb2): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem Sep 18 01:33:53 heisenberg kernel: FAT-fs (sdb2): bogus number of reserved sectors Sep 18 01:33:53 heisenberg kernel: FAT-fs (sdb2): Can't find a valid FAT filesystem until it finally works when finding the right one: Sep 18 01:33:53 heisenberg kernel: BTRFS info (device sdb2): disk space caching is enabled Sep 18 01:33:53 heisenberg kernel: BTRFS info (device sdb2): has skinny extents One idea would be to use libblkid. I do however quite like the idea of having a fixed list of types which are considered.
