systemd-cryptenrollsystemdsystemd-cryptenroll1systemd-cryptenrollEnroll PKCS#11, FIDO2, TPM2 token/devices to LUKS2 encrypted volumessystemd-cryptenroll OPTIONSDEVICEDescriptionsystemd-cryptenroll is a tool for enrolling hardware security tokens and devices into a
LUKS2 encrypted volume, which may then be used to unlock the volume during boot. Specifically, it supports
tokens and credentials of the following kind to be enrolled:PKCS#11 security tokens and smartcards that may carry an RSA key pair (e.g. various YubiKeys)FIDO2 security tokens that implement the hmac-secret extension (most FIDO2 keys, including YubiKeys)TPM2 security devicesRecovery keys. These are similar to regular passphrases, however are randomly generated
on the computer and thus generally have higher entropy than user chosen passphrases. Their character
set has been designed to ensure they are easy to type in, while having high entropy. They may also be
scanned off screen using QR codes. Recovery keys may be used for unlocking LUKS2 volumes wherever
passphrases are accepted. They are intended to be used in combination with an enrolled hardware
security token, as a recovery option when the token is lost.Regular passphrasesIn addition, the tool may be used to enumerate currently enrolled security tokens and wipe a subset
of them. The latter may be combined with the enrollment operation of a new security token, in order to
update or replace enrollments.The tool supports only LUKS2 volumes, as it stores token meta-information in the LUKS2 JSON token
area, which is not available in other encryption formats.OptionsThe following options are understood:Enroll a regular password/passphrase. This command is mostly equivalent to
cryptsetup luksAddKey, however may be combined with
in one call, see below.Enroll a recovery key. Recovery keys are most identical to passphrases, but are
computer generated instead of human chosen, and thus have a guaranteed high entropy. The key uses a
character set that is easy to type in, and may be scanned off screen via a QR code.URIEnroll a PKCS#11 security token or smartcard (e.g. a YubiKey). Expects a PKCS#11
smart card URI referring to the token. Alternatively the special value auto may
be specified, in order to automatically determine the URI of a currently plugged in security token
(of which there must be exactly one). The special value list may be used to
enumerate all suitable PKCS#11 tokens currently plugged in. The security token must contain an RSA
key pair which is used to encrypt the randomly generated key that is used to unlock the LUKS2
volume. The encrypted key is then stored in the LUKS2 JSON token header area.In order to unlock a LUKS2 volume with an enrolled PKCS#11 security token, specify the
option in the respective /etc/crypttab line:myvolume /dev/sda1 - pkcs11-uri=autoSee
crypttab5 for a
more comprehensive example of a systemd-cryptenroll invocation and its matching
/etc/crypttab line.PATHEnroll a FIDO2 security token that implements the hmac-secret
extension (e.g. a YubiKey). Expects a hidraw device referring to the FIDO2
device (e.g. /dev/hidraw1). Alternatively the special value
auto may be specified, in order to automatically determine the device node of a
currently plugged in security token (of which there must be exactly one). The special value
list may be used to enumerate all suitable FIDO2 tokens currently plugged in. Note
that many hardware security tokens that implement FIDO2 also implement the older PKCS#11
standard. Typically FIDO2 is preferable, given it's simpler to use and more modern.In order to unlock a LUKS2 volume with an enrolled FIDO2 security token, specify the
option in the respective /etc/crypttab line:myvolume /dev/sda1 - fido2-device=autoSee
crypttab5 for a
more comprehensive example of a systemd-cryptenroll invocation and its matching
/etc/crypttab line.BOOLWhen enrolling a FIDO2 security token, controls whether to require the user to enter
a PIN when unlocking the volume (the FIDO2 clientPin feature). Defaults to
yes. (Note: this setting is without effect if the security token does not support
the clientPin feature at all, or does not allow enabling or disabling
it.)BOOLWhen enrolling a FIDO2 security token, controls whether to require the user to
verify presence (tap the token, the FIDO2 up feature) when unlocking the volume.
Defaults to yes. (Note: this setting is without effect if the security token does not support
the up feature at all, or does not allow enabling or disabling it.)
BOOLWhen enrolling a FIDO2 security token, controls whether to require user verification
when unlocking the volume (the FIDO2 uv feature). Defaults to
no. (Note: this setting is without effect if the security token does not support
the uv feature at all, or does not allow enabling or disabling it.)PATHEnroll a TPM2 security chip. Expects a device node path referring to the TPM2 chip
(e.g. /dev/tpmrm0). Alternatively the special value auto may
be specified, in order to automatically determine the device node of a currently discovered TPM2
device (of which there must be exactly one). The special value list may be used to
enumerate all suitable TPM2 devices currently discovered.In order to unlock a LUKS2 volume with an enrolled TPM2 security chip, specify the
option in the respective /etc/crypttab line:myvolume /dev/sda1 - tpm2-device=autoSee
crypttab5 for a
more comprehensive example of a systemd-cryptenroll invocation and its matching
/etc/crypttab line.Use (see below) to configure which TPM2 PCR indexes to bind the
enrollment to.PCRConfigures the TPM2 PCRs (Platform Configuration Registers) to bind the enrollment
requested via to. Takes a + separated list of
numeric PCR indexes in the range 0…23. If not used, defaults to PCR 7 only. If an empty string is
specified, binds the enrollment to no PCRs at all. PCRs allow binding the enrollment to specific
software versions and system state, so that the enrolled unlocking key is only accessible (may be
"unsealed") if specific trusted software and/or configuration is used.

SLOTWipes one or more LUKS2 key slots. Takes a comma separated list of numeric slot
indexes, or the special strings all (for wiping all key slots),
empty (for wiping all key slots that are unlocked by an empty passphrase),
password (for wiping all key slots that are unlocked by a traditional passphrase),
recovery (for wiping all key slots that are unlocked by a recovery key),
pkcs11 (for wiping all key slots that are unlocked by a PKCS#11 token),
fido2 (for wiping all key slots that are unlocked by a FIDO2 token),
tpm2 (for wiping all key slots that are unlocked by a TPM2 chip), or any
combination of these strings or numeric indexes, in which case all slots matching either are
wiped. As safety precaution an operation that wipes all slots without exception (so that the volume
cannot be unlocked at all anymore, unless the volume key is known) is refused.This switch may be used alone, in which case only the requested wipe operation is executed. It
may also be used in combination with any of the enrollment options listed above, in which case the
enrollment is completed first, and only when successful the wipe operation executed — and the newly
added slot is always excluded from the wiping. Combining enrollment and slot wiping may thus be used to
update existing enrollments:systemd-cryptenroll /dev/sda1 --wipe-slot=tpm2 --tpm2-device=autoThe above command will enroll the TPM2 chip, and then wipe all previously created TPM2
enrollments on the LUKS2 volume, leaving only the newly created one. Combining wiping and enrollment
may also be used to replace enrollments of different types, for example for changing from a PKCS#11
enrollment to a FIDO2 one:systemd-cryptenroll /dev/sda1 --wipe-slot=pkcs11 --fido2-device=autoOr for replacing an enrolled empty password by TPM2:systemd-cryptenroll /dev/sda1 --wipe-slot=empty --tpm2-device=autoExit statusOn success, 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.See Alsosystemd1,
