Re: [RFC PATCH v2 0/3] ceph: add support for snapshot names encryption

Hi Luis,

There has another issue you need to handle at the same time.

Currently only the empty directory could be enabled the file encryption, such as for the following command:

$ fscrypt encrypt mydir/

But should we also make sure that the mydir/.snap/ is empty ?

Here the 'empty' is not totally empty, which allows it should allow long snap names exist.

Make sense ?

Hi!

A couple of changes since v1:

- Dropped the dentry->d_flags change in ceph_mkdir(). Thanks to Xiubo
suggestion, patch 0001 now skips calling ceph_fscrypt_prepare_context()
if we're handling a snapshot.

- Added error handling to ceph_get_snapdir() in patch 0001 (Jeff had
already pointed that out but I forgot to include that change in previous
revision).

- Rebased patch 0002 to the latest wip-fscrypt branch.

- Added some documentation regarding snapshots naming restrictions.

As before, in order to test this code the following PRs are required:

mds: add protection from clients without fscrypt support #45073
mds: use the whole string as the snapshot long name #45192
mds: support alternate names for snapshots #45224
mds: limit the snapshot names to 240 characters #45312

ceph: add support for handling encrypted snapshot names
ceph: update documentation regarding snapshot naming limitations
