I have high-level questions: What is the expected use case?The wrapping key here is only used for new AES instructions. I’m aware of their potential use cases for encrypting file system or disks.I would like to understand what people are actually going to do with this. Give me a user story or two, please. If it turns out to be useless, I would rather not merge it.
Hi Andy,
V3 was posted here with both cover letter and code changes to address this:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211124200700.15888-1-chang.seok.bae@intel.com/ (local)
Appreciate, if you can comment on the use case at least.
Thanks,
Chang
