+Purpose
+=======
+
+chk_luks_keyslots is a tool that searches the keyslot area of a
+LUKS container for positions where entropy is low and hence
+there is a high probability of damage from overwrites of parts
+of the key-slot with data such as a RAID superblock or a partition
+table.
+
+
+Installation
+============
+
+1. Install the version of cryptsetup the tool came with.
+2. Compile with "make"
+   
+Manual compile can be done with
+   gcc -lm -lcryptsetup chk_luks_keyslots.c -o chk_luks_keyslots
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+Call chk_luks_keyslots without arguments for an option summary.
+
+
+Example of a good keyslot area with keys 0 and 2 in use:
+--------------------------------------------------------
+
+root> ./chk_luks_keyslots /dev/loop0
+
+parameters (commandline and LUKS header):
+  sector size: 512
+  threshold:   0.900000
+
+- processing keyslot 0:  start: 0x001000   end: 0x020400
+- processing keyslot 1:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 2:  start: 0x041000   end: 0x060400
+- processing keyslot 3:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 4:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 5:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 6:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 7:  keyslot not in use
+
+
+Same example of a fault in slot 2 at offset 0x50000:
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+root>./chk_luks_keyslots /dev/loop2
+
+parameters (commandline and LUKS header):
+  sector size: 512
+  threshold:   0.900000
+
+- processing keyslot 0:  start: 0x001000   end: 0x020400
+- processing keyslot 1:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 2:  start: 0x041000   end: 0x060400
+  low entropy at: 0x050000    entropy: 0.549165
+- processing keyslot 3:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 4:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 5:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 6:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 7:  keyslot not in use
+
+
+Same as last, but verbose:
+--------------------------
+root>./chk_luks_keyslots  -v /dev/loop2
+
+parameters (commandline and LUKS header):
+  sector size: 512
+  threshold:   0.900000
+
+- processing keyslot 0:  start: 0x001000   end: 0x020400
+- processing keyslot 1:  keyslot not in use
+- processing keyslot 2:  start: 0x041000   end: 0x060400
+  low entropy at: 0x050000    entropy: 0.549165
