2018-04-03fsck: report skipped corrupt filesJakob Unterwurzacher
OpenDir and ListXAttr skip over corrupt entries, readFileID treats files the are too small as empty. This improves usability in the face of corruption, but hides the problem in a log message instead of putting it in the return code. Create a channel to report these corruptions to fsck so it can report them to the user. Also update the manpage and the changelog with the -fsck option. Closes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/191

2017-11-21main: Add '-devrandom' commandline optionSebastian Lackner
Allows to use /dev/random for generating the master key instead of the default Go implementation. When the kernel random generator has been properly initialized both are considered equally secure, however: * Versions of Go prior to 1.9 just fall back to /dev/urandom if the getrandom() syscall would be blocking (Go Bug #19274) * Kernel versions prior to 3.17 do not support getrandom(), and there is no check if the random generator has been properly initialized before reading from /dev/urandom This is especially useful for embedded hardware with low-entroy. Please note that generation of the master key might block indefinitely if the kernel cannot harvest enough entropy.
2017-11-12main: add "-sharedstorage" flagJakob Unterwurzacher
At the moment, it does two things: 1. Disable stat() caching so changes to the backing storage show up immediately. 2. Disable hard link tracking, as the inode numbers on the backing storage are not stable when files are deleted and re-created behind our back. This would otherwise produce strange "file does not exist" and other errors. Mitigates https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/156
2017-10-19MANPAGE: explain that you may have to pass -aessiv with -masterkeyJakob Unterwurzacher
...if the filesystem was created with that option (or reverse mode). Mitigates https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/148

2017-08-21MANPAGE: update exit codesJakob Unterwurzacher
The exit codes have been documented in CLI_ABI.md for a while, but they should also be listed in the man page. Also fix the rendering of "[-o COMMA-SEPARATED-OPTIONS]", where the square brackets where interpreted as something. Escape all square brackets to be safe.

For some reason, writing became a lot faster in Linux 4.11 (scheduler improvements?).

Also, get rid of the half-empty line.
2017-06-01Don't cap GOMAXPROCS at 4.Jakob Unterwurzacher
Before Go 1.5, GOMAXPROCS defaulted to 1, hence it made sense to unconditionally increase it to 4. But since Go 1.5, GOMAXPROCS defaults to the number of cores, so don't keep it from increasing above 4. Also, update the performance numbers.

...and fix a few golint issues and print a scary warning message on mount. Also, force the fs to ro,noexec.
2017-04-23Add -forcedecodedanim7
Force decode of encrypted files even if the integrity check fails, instead of failing with an IO error. Warning messages are still printed to syslog if corrupted files are encountered. It can be useful to recover files from disks with bad sectors or other corrupted media. Closes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/pull/102 .

This keeps the README working even if nuetzlich.net is unavailable. We use a PNG because github disallows embedding local SVGs.

Writing 1000 128KB blocks takes only 1 second and yielded inconsistent results. With 2000, things look saner.
2016-11-25main, fusefrontend: add "-noprealloc" optionJakob Unterwurzacher
Preallocation is very slow on hdds that run btrfs. Give the user the option to disable it. This greatly speeds up small file operations but reduces the robustness against out-of-space errors. Also add the option to the man page. More info: https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/63
