Add API call that can directly print JSON metadata area from LUKS2 device.
For commandline it also adds --dump-json-metadata option for luksDump action.
Note that the binary metadata (UUID, version etc) is not part of this output.
(We reserve flags parameter to be able to add this later.)
Fixes: #511
Keep it simple. If there's not enough memory we can't validate
segments. The LUKS2 specification does not recommend to continue
processing LUKS2 metadata if it can not be properly validated.
In case LUKS2 backup segment creates gap in between last regular
segment and backup segment report invalid metadata imediately. We stop
on first error so there's no need to allocate large memory on heap
(we may ran with mlock(MCL_FUTURE) set).
Example:
- total segments count is 3
- regular segments have keys "0" and "1"
- first backup segment has key "42"
Segments are validated in hdr_validate_segments. Gaps in segment keys
are detected when collecting offsets. But if an invalid segment is very
large, larger than count, it could happen that cryptsetup is unable to
allocate enough memory, not giving a clue about what actually is the
problem.
Therefore check for gaps even if not enough memory is available. This
gives much more information with debug output enabled.
Obviously cryptsetup still fails if segments are perfectly fine but not
enough RAM available. But at that stage, the user knows that it's the
fault of the system, not of an invalid segment.
These performance options, introduced in kernel 5.9, configures
dm-crypt to bypass read or write workqueues and run encryption
synchronously.
Also support persistent storage of these flags for LUKS2.
* TRUE/FALSE are not defined anymore. 1 and 0 are used instead.
* json_object_get_uint64() and json_object_new_uint64() are part
of the upstream API now.
Kernel 5.7 adds support for optional discard/TRIM operation
for dm-integrity (available only for internal hash, not for LUKS2
with integrity).
This patch adds support for the new option.
Some kernels show invalid dm-integrity table if suberblock
contains "recalculate" bit.
We can workaround that by setting recalculate option in table
(kernel uses bits from superblock anyway), so the table displayed
is always correct.
Fixes: #538
Original messages could evoke reencryption is currently
in progress. That was inaccurate because code only
detected flag marking such device is in transition state
from metadata pov. We should not imply anything about
running processes. That's detected via reencryption locks.
- make error messages propagated to users more comprehensible
- drop some error messages completely
- replace many error messages with debug logs only
Fixes#458.
LUKS2 and other device types allow stacking of dm devices
underneath public top level device.
The new type identifies clearly those private devices in respective
device stack so that they can be easily removed while removing
top level public device.
Switch LUKS2 reencryption device stack to use SUBDEV type immmediately
for hotzone and overlay devices. Other devices will follow in later
releases.
It's useful to reencrypt only initial device part only.
For example with golden image reencryption it may be useful
to reencrypt only first X bytes of device because we know
the rest of device is empty.
