Public bug reported:
Hi,
I am using several ecryptfs mounts with ecryptfs-add-passphrase and
mount.ecryptfs_private, configured in ~/.ecryptfs/xxx.conf and
~/.ecryptfs/xxx.sig, which was working well for years up to 17.04.
With 17.10 I can't mount these file systems anymore.
ecryptfs-add-passphrase says
Inserted auth tok with sig [....] into the user session keyring
with the correct sig (!).
Trying to mount with mount.ecryptfs_private then says
mount: No such file or directory
although all directories present and correct.
the Kernel then says (dmesg):
[10149.247972] Could not find key with description: [...]
[10149.247994] process_request_key_err: No key
[10149.248000] Could not find valid key in user session keyring for sig
specified in mount option: [...]
[10149.248012] One or more global auth toks could not properly register; rc =
[-2]
[10149.248019] Error parsing options; rc = [-2]
with exactly the same sig!
So although ecryptfs-add-passphrase claimed to have added the key to the
keyring, the kernel complains that it could not find such a key.
