block: add generic full disk encryption driver
Add a block driver that is capable of supporting any full disk
encryption format. This utilizes the previously added block
encryption code, and at this time supports the LUKS format.
The driver code is capable of supporting any format supported
by the QCryptoBlock module, so it registers one block driver
for each format. This patch only registers the "luks" driver
since the "qcow" driver is there only for back-compatibility
with existing qcow built-in encryption.
New LUKS compatible volumes can be formatted using qemu-img
with defaults for all settings.
$ qemu-img create --object secret,data=123456,id=sec0 \
-f luks -o key-secret=sec0 demo.luks 10G
Alternatively the cryptographic settings can be explicitly
set
$ qemu-img create --object secret,data=123456,id=sec0 \
-f luks -o key-secret=sec0,cipher-alg=aes-256,\
cipher-mode=cbc,ivgen-alg=plain64,hash-alg=sha256 \
demo.luks 10G
And query its size
$ qemu-img info demo.img
image: demo.img
file format: luks
virtual size: 10G (10737418240 bytes)
disk size: 132K
encrypted: yes
Note that it was not necessary to provide the password
when querying info for the volume. The password is only
required when performing I/O on the volume
All volumes created by this new 'luks' driver should be
capable of being opened by the kernel dm-crypt driver.
The only algorithms listed in the LUKS spec that are
not currently supported by this impl are sha512 and
ripemd160 hashes and cast6 cipher.
