Subject: what is needed to test the in-kernel crypto loop?
Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2003 15:08:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030711130859.GA15013@outpost.ds9a.nl> (raw)

Andries,

You mentioned:

 [util-linux is waiting for this; when 2.6 comes out, or the
  first mount/losetup comes out that uses struct loop_info64,
  whichever comes first, struct loop_info64 must be considered
  frozen: a stable kernel must not change API and user space
  ABI must remain constant. This means that if cryptoloop is
  added later, some backwards compatibility is lost.]

Is a newer losetup/mount needed to test the in-kernel crypto loop driver?
The crypto-loop code is present in the bk repository, now.

Thanks.
