.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm cgd
|
|
.Nd cryptographic disk driver
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd "pseudo-device cgd" Op Ar count
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides the capability of encrypting blocks on their way
|
|
to and from a disk or partition.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In order to compile support for the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
into your kernel, you must add the driver to your kernel configuration
|
|
file.
|
|
To do this, add a line similar to:
|
|
.Bd -unfilled -offset indent
|
|
pseudo-device cgd 4 # cryptographic disk driver
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The count argument defines how many
|
|
.Nm Ns 's
|
|
may be configured at a time.
|
|
.Ss Encryption Algorithms
|
|
Currently the following cryptographic algorithms are supported:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indentxxxxxxx
|
|
.It aes-cbc
|
|
AES in CBC mode.
|
|
AES uses a 128 bit blocksize and can accept keys of
|
|
length 128, 192 or 256.
|
|
The default key length is 256.
|
|
.It 3des-cbc
|
|
Triple DES in CBC mode.
|
|
Triple DES uses a 64 bit blocksize and is
|
|
performed in EDE3 mode with a 168 bit key.
|
|
The key passed to the kernel
|
|
is 192 bits but the parity bits are ignored.
|
|
.It blowfish-cbc
|
|
Blowfish in CBC mode.
|
|
Blowfish uses a 64 bit blocksize and can accept keys of length 128.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Ss IV Methods
|
|
Currently, the only IV Method supported is
|
|
.Ar encblkno
|
|
(Encrypted Block Number).
|
|
This method encrypts the block number of the
|
|
physical disk block with the cipher and key provided and uses that as the
|
|
IV for CBC mode.
|
|
This method should ensure that each block has a different
|
|
IV and that the IV is reasonably unpredictable.
|
|
.Ss IOCTLS
|
|
A
|
|
.Nm
|
|
responds to all of the standard disk
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2
|
|
calls defined in
|
|
.Xr sd 4 ,
|
|
and also defines the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width CGDIOCSET
|
|
.It CGDIOCSET
|
|
configure the
|
|
.Nm .
|
|
This
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2
|
|
sets up the encryption parameters and points the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
at the underlying disk.
|
|
.It CGDIOCCLR
|
|
unconfigures the
|
|
.Nm .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
These
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2 Ns 's
|
|
and their associated data structures are defined in
|
|
.Pa /usr/include/dev/cgdvar.h .
|
|
.Sh WARNINGS
|
|
It goes without saying that if you forget the passphrase that you used
|
|
to configure a
|
|
.Nm ,
|
|
then you have irrevocably lost all of the data on the disk.
|
|
Please ensure that you are using an appropriate backup strategy.
|

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The

driver was written by Roland C. Dowdeswell for

driver originally appeared in
