             Summary: Add an XAttr to specify the cipher mode
                 Key: HDFS-6508
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6508

          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: namenode, security
            Reporter: Charles Lamb

We should specify the cipher mode in the xattrs for compatibility sake. Crypto 
changes over time and we need to prepare for that.
