The encrypted.c class supports instantiation of encrypted keys with
either an already-encrypted key material, or by generating new key
material based on random numbers. To support encryption of
user-provided decrypted data, this patch defines a new datablob
format: [<format>] <master-key name> <decrypted data length>
<decrypted data>.

Could you also provide an LTP test for defining, exporting, and loading
an encrypted key based on user provided key data?

thanks,

Mimi

Hi Mimi,

I have posted the ltp test:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211221023721.129689-1-yaelt@google.com/ (local)

I will update the documentation per your suggestion.
Please also prefix the patch title (Subject line) with "KEYS:
encrypted:" and remove the trailing period.

thanks,

Mimi
