+Cryptsetup 1.1.1 Release Notes
+==============================
+
+Changes since version 1.1.1-rc2
+* Fix luksClose error if underlying device is LVM logical volume.
+
+Changes since version 1.1.1-rc1
+* Fix automatic dm-crypt module loading.
+
+Changes since version 1.1.0
+
+Important changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* Detects and use device-mapper udev support if available.
+
+  This should allow synchronisation with udev rules and avoid races with udev.
+
+  If package maintainer want to use old, direct libdevmapper device node creation,
+  use configure option --disable-udev.
+
+* Supports device topology detection for data alignment.
+
+  If kernel provides device topology ioctl calls, the LUKS data area
+  alignment is automatically set to optimal value.
+
+  This means that stacked devices (like LUKS over MD/LVM)
+  should use the most optimal data alignment.
+
+  (You can still overwrite this calculation using --align-payload option.)
+
+* Prefers some device paths in status display.
+  (So status command will try to find top level device name, like /dev/sdb.)
+
+* Fix package config file to use proper package version.
+
+Other changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+* Fix luksOpen reading of passphrase on stdin (if "-" keyfile specified).
+* Fix isLuks to initialise crypto backend (blkid instead is suggested anyway).
+* Properly initialise crypto backend in header backup/restore commands.
+* Do not verify unlocking passphrase in luksAddKey command.
+* Allow no hash specification in plain device constructor - user can provide volume key directly.
+* Try to use pkgconfig for device mapper library in configuration script.
+* Add some compatibility checks and disable LUKS suspend/resume if not supported.
+* Rearrange tests, "make check" now run all available test for package.
+* Avoid class C++ keyword in library header.
