The error correction can fix even problem with root hash.
For now, always return fail if initial check of root hash failed.
FIXME: The FEC verify code need to be rewritten to repair only
blocks where hash is wrong and the re-check hash after recovery,
inclkuding root hash.
Now we do not check hash after FEC recovery. The Reed-Solomon
decoder can then "repair" code wrongly if parity is too damaged.
For now, the information about FEC repaired errors is only
advisory, it does not mean device is fully repaireable.
Do not write more than needed header if hash area is not used later.
All space in hash area is then used in FEC calculation, so it makes
no sense to add unused area.
Reencryption did not take into account adjusted xts
key size configuration option. This patch fix the
issue by using same logic as in luksFormat with xts
mode selected for data encryption.
By default when reencrypting LUKS2 device we regenerate only
the volume key. But if the device was 'encrypted' by cipher_null
this change did not make sense. The key was always empty.
Change the behaviour so that unless user specifies --cipher
parameter on command line, we change data encryption cipher
to default when old segment cipher was cipher_null.
By mistake LUKS2 allowed keyslots 'not-so-encrypted' by
cipher_null (only explicitly requested by --cipher or
--keyslot-cipher parameters). If we encounter
such old key during reencryption let's replace the cipher
for new keyslot with default LUKS2 keyslot cipher.
It does not make sense to upload volume keys in
kernel keyring if segment cipher is cipher_null.
The real volume_key is thrown away and replaced
with empty key anyway.
This bug enabled to create LUKS2 keyslots encrypted by
cipher_null when explicitely requested by user. LUKS2
was never meant to allow keyslot encryption with
cipher_null. cipher_null is meant for debug purposes
only as a segment cipher.
FEC (Forward Error Correction) data should cover the whole data area,
hashes (Merkle tree) and optionally additional metadata (located after hash area).
Unfortunately, if FEC data is stored in the same file as hash, the calculation
wrongly used the whole file size thus overlaps with FEC area itself.
This produces unusable and too large FEC data.
(There is not a problem if FEC image is a separate image.)
This patch fixes the problem, introducing FEC blocks calculation as:
-If hash device is in a separate image, metadata covers the whole rest of the image after hash area.
(Unchanged behaviour.)
-If hash and FEC device is in the image, metadata ends on the FEC area offset.
This should probably fix several issues reported with FEC wrong calculations.
Fixes: #554
If FEC was enabled, the error for bad root hash was replaced
by error correction (datga were ok, only root hash was wrong).
Do not run recovery test if root hash is incorrect.
To avoid confusion, use just one lib include and specify sub-directories
for format inclusions.
This should also help some analysis tools to find proper includes.
