The following reply was made to PR conf/128299; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Yoshihiro Ota <ota@j.email.ne.jp> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Cc: mb@tns.cz Subject: Re: conf/128299: [patch] /etc/rc.d/geli does not mount partitions using both journal and eli Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2009 21:31:03 -0500 I see it now. I forgot how I tested it but it seems I only tested "geli_expand_entry" function. I remember that it extracted multiple occurrences of .eli's in a single path. I think I only tested .eli.journal really would get mounted as I didn't have any devices to test with. By the way, I don't think DEVICE.journal.eli will be helpful. Journaing needs to be fs-aware. It logs the records of file system updates. However, if you put GEOM eli on top of it, DEVICE.journal only sees encripted block and as a result, gournaling is effectively disabled. In another word, it needs to be the last GEOM layer. Is that right? Regards, Hiro
