This option is an indication for PID1 that the entry in crypttab is handled by initrd only and therefore it shouldn't interfer during the usual start-up and shutdown process. It should be primarily used with the encrypted device containing the root FS as we want to keep it (and thus its encrypted device) until the very end of the shutdown process, i.e. when initrd takes over. This option is the counterpart of "x-initrd.mount" used in fstab. Note that the slice containing the cryptsetup services also needs to drop the usual shutdown dependencies as it's required by the cryptsetup services. Fixes: #14224

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <filename>/etc/crypttab</filename> file describes
|
|
encrypted 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
|
|
encrypted block device. Fields are delimited by white space.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Each line is in the form<programlisting><replaceable>name</replaceable> <replaceable>encrypted-device</replaceable> <replaceable>password</replaceable> <replaceable>options</replaceable></programlisting>
|
|
The first two fields are mandatory, the remaining two are
|
|
optional.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Setting up encrypted block devices using this file supports
|
|
three encryption modes: LUKS, TrueCrypt and plain. See
|
|
<citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>cryptsetup</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for more information about each mode. When no mode is specified in
|
|
the options field and the block device contains a LUKS signature,
|
|
it is opened as a LUKS device; otherwise, it is assumed to be in
|
|
raw dm-crypt (plain mode) format.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The first field contains the name of the resulting encrypted
|
|
block device; the device is set up within
|
|
<filename>/dev/mapper/</filename>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The second field contains a path to the underlying block
|
|
device or file, or a specification of a block device via
|
|
<literal>UUID=</literal> followed by the UUID.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The third field specifies the encryption password. If the
|
|
field is not present or the password is set to
|
|
<literal>none</literal> or <literal>-</literal>, the password has
|
|
to be manually entered during system boot. Otherwise, the field is
|
|
interpreted as an absolute path to a file containing the encryption
|
|
password. For swap encryption, <filename>/dev/urandom</filename>
|
|
or the hardware device <filename>/dev/hw_random</filename> can be
|
|
used as the password file; using <filename>/dev/random</filename>
|
|
may prevent boot completion if the system does not have enough
|
|
entropy to generate a truly random encryption key.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The fourth field, if present, is a comma-delimited list of
|
|
options. The following options are recognized:</para>
