This patch series increase security of suspend and hibernate actions. It allows
user to safely wipe crypto keys before suspend and hibernate actions starts
without race conditions on userspace process with heavy I/O.
To automatically wipe cryto key for <device> before hibernate action call:
$ dmsetup message <device> 0 key wipe_on_hibernation 1
To automatically wipe cryto key for <device> before suspend action call:
$ dmsetup message <device> 0 key wipe_on_suspend 1
(Value 0 after wipe_* string reverts original behaviour - to not wipe key)
Pali Rohár (3):
PM suspend/hibernate: Call notifier after freezing processes
dm: Export function dm_suspend_md()
