Also, it properly calculates speed in the case + of a resumed reencryption operation. + +* The --version now supports short -V short option and better handles + common option priorities. + +* If cryptsetup wipes signatures during format actions through blkid, + it also prints signature device offsets. + +* Compilation now properly uses LTLIBINTL gettext setting in Makefiles. + +* Device-mapper backend now supports new DM_GET_TARGET_VERSION ioctl + (available since Linux kernel 5.4). + This should help to detect some kernel/userspace incompatibilities + earlier later after a failed device activation. + +* Fixes LUKS2 reencryption on systems without kernel keyring. + +* Fixes unlocking prompt for partitions mapped through loop devices + (to properly show the backing device). + +* For LUKS2 decryption, a device is now marked for deferred removal + to be automatically deactivated. + +* Reencryption now limits hotzone size to be maximal 1 GiB or 1/4 + system memory (if lower). + +* Reencryption now retains activation flags during online reencryption. + +* Reencryption now allows LUKS2 device to activate device right after + LUKS2 encryption is initialized through optional active device name + for cryptsetup reencrypt --encrypt command. + This could help with automated encryption during boot. + + NOTE: It means that part of the device is still not encrypted during + activation. Use with care! + +* Fixes failure in resize and plain format activation if activated device + size was not aligned to underlying logical device size. + +* Fixes conversion to LUKS2 format with detached header if a detached + header size was smaller than the expected aligned LUKS1 header size. |
