dm crypt: optionally support larger encryption sector size

Browse source 
Add  optional "sector_size"  parameter that specifies encryption sector
size (atomic unit of block device encryption).

Parameter can be in range 512 - 4096 bytes and must be power of two.
For compatibility reasons, the maximal IO must fit into the page limit,
so the limit is set to the minimal page size possible (4096 bytes).

NOTE: this device cannot yet be handled by cryptsetup if this parameter
is set.

IV for the sector is calculated from the 512 bytes sector offset unless
the iv_large_sectors option is used.

Test script using dmsetup:

  DEV="/dev/sdb"
  DEV_SIZE=$(blockdev --getsz $DEV)
  KEY="9c1185a5c5e9fc54612808977ee8f548b2258d31ddadef707ba62c166051b9e3cd0294c27515f2bccee924e8823ca6e124b8fc3167ed478bca702babe4e130ac"
  BLOCK_SIZE=4096

  # dmsetup create test_crypt --table "0 $DEV_SIZE crypt aes-xts-plain64 $KEY 0 $DEV 0 1 sector_size:$BLOCK_SIZE"
  # dmsetup table --showkeys test_crypt

@ -122,6 +122,20 @@ integrity:<bytes>:<type>
integrity for the encrypted device. The additional space is then
used for storing authentication tag (and persistent IV if needed).
sector_size:<bytes>
Use <bytes> as the encryption unit instead of 512 bytes sectors.
This option can be in range 512 - 4096 bytes and must be power of two.
Virtual device will announce this size as a minimal IO and logical sector.
iv_large_sectors
IV generators will use sector number counted in <sector_size> units
instead of default 512 bytes sectors.
For example, if <sector_size> is 4096 bytes, plain64 IV for the second
sector will be 8 (without flag) and 1 if iv_large_sectors is present.
The <iv_offset> must be multiple of <sector_size> (in 512 bytes units)
if this flag is specified.
