To be clear, I'm asking for tests which verify the actual ciphertext written to disk. So similar to _verify_ciphertext_for_encryption_policy() in xfstests, or to vts_kernel_encryption_test in Android's VTS. > > Perhaps fscrypt_set_bio_crypt_ctx() should call this?

Since metadata encryption would already depend on FS_ENCRYPTION and BLK_INLINE_ENCRYPTION, I think it would be fine to require FS_ENCRYPTION_INLINE_CRYPT too, in order to reduce the number of combinations. - Eric _______________________________________________ Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel
