Previoulsy when making xts_tweak, page->index was used.
But, when it supports fcollapse, the block address was moved, so that we can lose the original page->index, which causes decrytion failure.
In order to avoid that, let's use the inode->i_ino for xfs_tweak hint.

Previoulsy when making
xts_tweak,page->indexwas used.
But, when it supports fcollapse, the block address was moved, so that we can lose the originalpage->index, which causes decrytion failure.In order to avoid that, let's use the
inode->i_inoforxfs_tweakhint.
I'm afraid that's a really bad idea. We need to have a different xts tweak for each block, and if we use the inode number, then every single block will have the same XTS tweak, which is a cryptographic disaster.
Basically, we currently can't support either collapse range or insert range for encrypted files. In ext4 we explicitly return EOPNOTSUPP if there is an attempt to call collapse range on an encrypted file. Personally, I don't think this is a major restriction, so I haven't lost any sleep over this.
Eventually, Michael and I hope to add support for Galois Counter Mode, but that requires the file system to be able to store per-block cryptrographic information, which can be used for the GCM authentication tag as well as a per-block IV. The per-block IV being stored in a separate data structure would also allow insert range/collapse range to work, at the cost of needing to do a lookup to fetch the per-block cryptographic information. (And to set the per-block cryptographic information when writing the information, in a way where we can atomically write the data block as well as the per-block authenticaiton tag, which gets a bit tricky....)
In any case, I believe support for data integrity is a far more compelling reason for adding pre-block crypto information, and supporting collapse/insert range is at best a fortunate side effect.

Thank you for the kind explanation.
I just thought that inode number was enough for encryption, since user can easily retrieve any inode number and its block offsets/addresses as well.

Ok, I see. It should not be a major concern.
I'll deactivate collapse/insert in f2fs instead.

Got it, thanks, :)
