The commit 643fa9612b
("fscrypt: remove filesystem specific
build config option") removed modular support for fs/crypto. This
causes the Crypto API to be built-in whenever fscrypt is enabled.
This makes it very difficult for me to test modular builds of
the Crypto API without disabling fscrypt which is a pain.
As fscrypt is still evolving and it's developing new ties with the
fs layer, it's hard to build it as a module for now.
However, the actual algorithms are not required until a filesystem
is mounted. Therefore we can allow them to be built as modules.

This option allows to explicitly choose which compressions, if any,

help
|
|
Originally UBIFS did not support atime, because it looked like a bad idea due
|
|
increased flash wear. This option adds atime support and it is disabled by default
|
|
to preserve the old behavior. If you enable this option, UBIFS starts updating atime,
|
|
which means that file-system read operations will cause writes (inode atime
|
|
updates). This may affect file-system performance and increase flash device wear,
|
|
so be careful. How often atime is updated depends on the selected strategy:
|
|
strictatime is the "heavy", relatime is "lighter", etc.
|
|

If unsure, say 'N'

Saying Y here includes support for extended attributes (xattrs).

Xattrs are name:value pairs associated with inodes by

the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page).

If unsure, say Y.

Security labels provide an access control facility to support Linux

Security Models (LSMs) accepted by AppArmor, SELinux, Smack and TOMOYO

|
Linux. This option enables an extended attribute handler for file
|
|
security labels in the ubifs filesystem, so that it requires enabling
|
|
the extended attribute support in advance.

If you are not using a security module, say N.

Enable authentication support for UBIFS. This feature offers protection

If you say yes here you should also select a hashing algorithm such as

sha256, these are not selected automatically since there are many
|
|
different options.
