+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para>The <filename>/etc/integritytab</filename> file describes
+ integrity protected block devices that are set up during
+ system boot.</para>
+
+ <para>Empty lines and lines starting with the <literal>#</literal>
+ character are ignored. Each of the remaining lines describes one
+ verity integrity protected block device. Fields are delimited by
+ white space.</para>
+
+ <para>Each line is in the form<programlisting><replaceable>volume-name</replaceable> <replaceable>block-device</replaceable>
+ <replaceable>[keyfile|-]</replaceable> <replaceable>[options|-]</replaceable></programlisting>
+ The first two fields are mandatory, the remaining two are optional and only required if user specified non-default options during integrity format.</para>
+
+ <para>The first field contains the name of the resulting integrity volume; its block device is set up
+ below <filename>/dev/mapper/</filename>.</para>
+
+ <para>The second field contains a path to the underlying block device, or a specification of a block device via
+ <literal>UUID=</literal> followed by the UUID,
+ <literal>PARTUUID=</literal> followed by the partition UUID,
+ <literal>LABEL=</literal> followed by the label,
+ <literal>PARTLABEL=</literal> followed by the partition label.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>The third field if present contains an absolute filename path to a key file or a <literal>-</literal>
+ to specify none. When the filename is present, the "integrity-algorithm" defaults to <literal>hmac-sha256</literal>
+ with the key length derived from the number of bytes in the key file. At this time the only supported integrity algorithm
+ when using key file is hmac-sha256. The maximum size of the key file is 4096 bytes.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>The fourth field, if present, is a comma-delimited list of options or a <literal>-</literal> to specify none. The following options are
+ recognized:</para>
+ <variablelist>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term><option>allow-discards</option></term>
+
+ <listitem><para>
+ Allow the use of discard (TRIM) requests for the device.
+ This option is available since the Linux kernel version 5.7.
+ </para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term><option>journal-watermark=[0..100]%</option></term>
+
+ <listitem><para>
+ Journal watermark in percent. When the journal percentage exceeds this watermark, the journal flush will be started. Setting a value of
+ "0%" uses default value.
+ </para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term><option>journal-commit-time=[0..N]</option></term>
+
+ <listitem><para>
+ Commit time in milliseconds. When this time passes (and no explicit flush operation was issued), the journal is written. Setting a value of
+ zero uses default value.
+ </para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term><option>data-device=/dev/disk/by-...</option></term>
+
+ <listitem><para>
+ Specify a separate block device that contains existing data. The second field specified in the
+ integritytab for block device then will contain calculated integrity tags and journal for data-device,
+ but not the end user data.
+ </para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term><option>integrity-algorithm=[crc32c|crc32|sha1|sha256|hmac-sha256]</option></term>
+
+ <listitem><para>
+ The algorithm used for integrity checking. The default is crc32c. Must match option used during format.
+ </para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ </variablelist>
