> Hi Guix,
>
> The following patch series adds support for Linux native filesystem encryption
> to Guix, via the `fscrypt` kernel interface and associated userspace tools
> `fscrypt` and `fscryptctl`.
>
> Patch 1/4 enables the relevant kernel configuration option,
> CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION. This is the same patch as #77202 [1].
> Patch 2/4 and 3/4 add the high-level `fscrypt` command-line utility (which is
> implemented in Go); these are the same patches as #77174 [2].
> Patch 4/4 adds `fscryptctl`, a lower-level tool written in C; this is the same
> patch as #77175 [3].
>
> I thought it would be good to group all these patches in a single series, so
> I'll close #77202, #77174 and #77175 in favor of this one.
