For both v1 and v2 key setup mechanisms, userspace supplies the raw key material to the kernel after which it is never again disclosed to userspace. Use of encrypted and trusted keys offers stronger guarantees: The key material is generated within the kernel and is never disclosed to userspace in clear text and, in the case of trusted keys, can be directly rooted to a trust source like a TPM chip. Add support for trusted and encrypted keys by repurposing fscrypt_add_key_arg::raw to hold the key description when the new FSCRYPT_KEY_ARG_TYPE_DESC flag is supplied. The location of the flag was previously reserved and enforced by ioctl code to be zero, so this change won't break backwards compatibility. Corresponding userspace patches are available for fscryptctl: https://github.com/google/fscryptctl/pull/23 Signed-off-by: Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> --- key_extract_material used by this patch is added in [ref] which still awaits feedback. Sending this RFC out anyway to get some feedback from the fscrypt developers whether this is the correct way to go about it. To: "Theodore Y.

Would be nice to have these documented. /Jarkko
