==============================
Changes since version 1.7.0
* Code now uses kernel crypto API backend according to new
changes introduced in mainline kernel
While mainline kernel should contain backward compatible
changes, some stable series kernels do not contain fully
backported compatibility patches.
Without these patches most of cryptsetup operations
(like unlocking device) fail.
This change in cryptsetup ensures that all operations using
kernel crypto API works even on these kernels.
* The cryptsetup-reencrypt utility now properly detects removal
of underlying link to block device and does not remove
ongoing re-encryption log.
This allows proper recovery (resume) of reencrypt operation later.
NOTE: Never use /dev/disk/by-uuid/ path for reencryption utility,
this link disappears once the device metadata is temporarily
removed from device.
* Cryptsetup now allows special "-" (standard input) keyfile handling
even for TCRYPT (TrueCrypt and VeraCrypt compatible) devices.
* Cryptsetup now fails if there are more keyfiles specified
for non-TCRYPT device.
* The luksKillSlot command now does not suppress provided password
in batch mode (if password is wrong slot is not destroyed).
Note that not providing password in batch mode means that keyslot
is destroyed unconditionally.
