.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
utility is used to configure encryption on GEOM providers.
.Pp
Here is the list of the most important features:
.Pp
.Bl -bullet -offset indent -compact
.It
Utilize the
.Xr crypto 9
framework, so when there is a crypto hardware available,
.Nm
will make use of it automatically.
If cryptography needs to be done in software,
a dedicated kernel thread will be started to do the crypto work in there.
.It
Supports many cryptographic algorithms (currently
.Nm AES ,
.Nm Blowfish
and
.Nm 3DES ) .
.It
Can create a key from a couple of components (user entered passphrase, random
bits from a file, etc.).
.It
Allows to encrypt root partition - user will be asked for the passphrase before
root file system is mounted.
.It
User's passphrase is strengthen with:
.Rs
.%A B. Kaliski
.%T "PKCS #5: Password-Based Cryptography Specification, Version 2.0."
.%R RFC
.%N 2898
.Re
.It
Allows to use two independent keys (e.g.
.Qq "user key"
and
.Qq "company key" ) .
.It
It is fast -
.Nm
performs simple sector-to-sector encryption.
.It
Allows to backup/restore Master Keys, so when user have to quickly destroy keys,
it is able to get the data back by restoring keys from the backup.
.It
Provider can be configured to automatically detach on last close (so user don't
have to remember to detach provider after unmounting file system).
.It
Allows to attach provider with a random, one-time keys - useful for swap
partitions and temporary file systems.
.El
.Pp
The first argument to
.Nm
indicates an action to be performed:
.Bl -tag -width ".Cm onetime"
.It Cm init
Initialize provider which needs to be encrypted.
Here you can setup cryptographic algorithm to use, key length, etc.
The last provider's sector is used to store metadata.
.Pp
Additional options include:
.Bl -tag -width ".Fl a Ar algo"
.It Fl a Ar algo
Encryption algorithm to use.
Currently supported algorithms are:
.Nm AES ,
.Nm Blowfish
and
.Nm 3DES .
The default is
.Nm AES .
.It Fl b
Ask for the passphrase on boot, before root partition is mounted.
This allows to use encrypted root partition.
One will still need bootable unencrypted storage with
.Pa /boot/
directory, which can be a CD-ROM disc or USB pen-drive, which can be removed
after boot.
.It Fl i Ar iterations
Number of iterations to use with PKCS#5v2.
If this option is not specified
.Nm
will find the number of iterations which is equal to 2 seconds of crypto work.
If 0 is given, PKCS#5v2 will not be used.
.It Fl K Ar newkeyfile
Specifies a file which contains part of the key.
If
.Ar newkeyfile
is given as -, standard input will be used.
Here is how more than one file with the key component can be used:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# cat key1 key2 key3 | geli init -K - /dev/da0
.Ed
.It Fl l Ar keylen
Key length to use with the given cryptographic algorithm.
If not given, the default key length for the given algorithm is used, which is:
128 for
.Nm AES ,
128 for
.Nm Blowfish
and 192 for
.Nm 3DES .
.It Fl s Ar sectorsize
Change decrypted provider's sector size.
Increasing sector size allows to increase performance, because we need to
generate IV and do encrypt/decrypt for every single sector - less number
of sectors means less work to do.
.It Fl P
Do not use passphrase as the key component.
.El
.It Cm attach
Attach the given provider. The master key will be decrypted using the given
passphrase/keyfile and a new GEOM provider will be created using the given
provider's name with an
.Qq .eli
suffix.
.Pp
Additional options include:
.Bl -tag -width ".Fl a Ar algo"
.It Fl d
If specified, decrypted provider will be detached automatically on last close.
This can help with short memory - user doesn't have to remember to detach
provider after unmounting file system.
It only works when provider was opened for writing, so it will not work if
file system on the provider is mounted read-only.
Probably better choice is the
.Fl l
option for the
.Cm detach
subcommand.
.It Fl k Ar keyfile
Specifies a file which contains part of the key.
For more information see description of
.Fl K
option for the
.Cm init
subcommand.
.It Fl p
Do not use passphrase as the key component.
.El
.It Cm detach
Detach the given providers, which means remove devfs entry and clear the keys
from memory.
.Pp
Additional options include:
.Bl -tag -width ".Fl a Ar algo"
.It Fl f
Force detach - detach even if provider is open.
.It Fl l
Mark provider to detach on last close.
If this option is specified provider will not be detached until it is open,
but when it will be closed last time, it will be automatically detached (even
if it was only opened for reading).
.El
.It Cm onetime
Attach the given providers with a random, one-time keys.
The command can be used to encrypt swap partitions or temporary file systems.
.Pp
Additional options include:
.Bl -tag -width ".Fl a Ar algo"
.It Fl a Ar algo
Encryption algorithm to use.
For more information see description of the
.Cm init
subcommand.
.It Fl d
Detach on last close.
Note, the option is not usable for temporary file system, because provider will
be detached after creating file system on it.
It still can (and should be) used for swap partitions.
For more information see description of the
.Cm attach
subcommand.
.It Fl l Ar keylen
Key length to use with the given cryptographic algorithm.
For more information see description of the
.Cm init
subcommand.
.It Fl s Ar sectorsize
Change decrypted provider's sector size.
For more information see description of the
.Cm init
subcommand.
.El
.It Cm setkey
Change or setup (if not yet initialized) selected key.
There is one master key, which can be encrypted with two independent user keys.
With the
.Cm init
subcommand only key number 0 is initialized.
The key can be always changed: for attached provider, for detached provider or
on the backup file.
When provider is attached, user don't have to provide an old passphrase/keyfile.
.Pp
Additional options include:
.Bl -tag -width ".Fl a Ar algo"
.It Fl k Ar keyfile
Specifies a file which contains part of the old key.
.It Fl K Ar newkeyfile
Specifies a file which contains part of the new key.
.It Fl n Ar keyno
Specifies number of the key to change (could be 0 or 1).
If provider is attached and no key number is given, the key used for attaching
provider will be changed.
If provider is detached (or we're operating on a backup file) and no key number
is given, the key decrypted with passphrase/keyfile will be changed.
.It Fl p
Do not use passphrase as the old key component.
.It Fl P
Do not use passphrase as the new key component.
.El
.It Cm delkey
Destroy (overwrite with random data) selected key.
If one is destroying keys for an attached provider, provider won't be detached
even if all keys will be destroyed.
It can be even rescued with the
.Cm setkey
subcommand.
.Bl -tag -width ".Fl a Ar algo"
.It Fl a
Destroy all keys (doesn't need
.Fl f
option).
.It Fl f
Force key destruction. This option is needed to destroy the last key.
.It Fl n Ar keyno
Specifies the key number.
If provider is attached and no key number is given, the key used for attaching
provider will be destroyed.
If provider is detached (or we're operating on a backup file) the key number
has to be given.
.El
.It Cm kill
The command should be used in emergency situations.
It will destroy all keys on the given provider and will detach it forcibly
(if it is attached).
This is absolutely one-way command - if you don't have metadata backup, your data
is gone for good.
.Bl -tag -width ".Fl a Ar algo"
.It Fl a
If specified, all currently attached providers will be killed.
.El
.It Cm backup
Backup metadata from the given provider to the given file.
.It Cm restore
Restore metadata from the given file to the given provider.
.It Cm clear
Clear metadata from the given providers.
.It Cm dump
Dump metadata stored on the given providers.
.It Cm list

.El
.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLES
The following
.Xr sysctl 8
variables can be used to control the behavior of the
.Nm ELI
GEOM class.
The default value is shown next to each variable.
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It Va kern.geom.eli.debug : No 0
Debug level of the
.Nm ELI
GEOM class.
This can be set to a number between 0 and 3 inclusive.
If set to 0 minimal debug information is printed, and if set to 3 the
maximum amount of debug information is printed.
This variable could be set in
.Pa /boot/loader.conf .
.It Va kern.geom.eli.tries : No 3
Number of times user is asked for the passphrase.
This is only used for providers which should be attached on boot (before root
file system is mounted).
If set to 0, attaching providers on boot will be disabled.
This variable should be set in
.Pa /boot/loader.conf .
.It Va kern.geom.eli.overwrites : No 5
Specifies how many times Master-Key will be overwriten with random values when
it is destroyed. After this operation it is filled with zeros.
.It Va kern.geom.eli.visible_passphrase : No 0
If set to 1, passphrase entered on boot (before root file system is mounted)
will be visible.
This possibility should be used with caution as entered passphrase can be logged
and exposed via
.Xr dmesg 8 .
This variable should be set in
.Pa /boot/loader.conf .
.It Va kern.geom.eli.threads : No 1
Specifies how many kernel threads should be used for doing software
cryptography.
It's purpose is to increase performance on SMP systems.
This variable could be set in
.Pa /boot/loader.conf .
.El
.Sh EXIT STATUS
Exit status is 0 on success, and 1 if the command fails.
.Sh EXAMPLES
Initialize provider which is going to be encrypted with a passphrase and random
data from a file on the user's pen drive.
Use 4kB sector size.
Attach the provider, create a file system and mount it.
Do the work.
Unmount provider and detach it:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# dd if=/dev/random of=/mnt/pendrive/da2.key bs=64 count=1
# geli init -s 4096 -K /mnt/pendrive/da2.key /dev/da2
Enter new passphrase:
Reenter new passphrase:
# geli attach -k /mnt/pendrive/da2.key /dev/da2
Enter passphrase:
# dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/da2.eli bs=1m
# newfs /dev/da2.eli
# mount /dev/da2.eli /mnt/secret
\&...
# umount /mnt/secret
# geli detach da2.eli
.Ed
.Pp
Create encrypted provider, but use two key: one for your girlfriend and one for
you (so there will be no tragedy if she forget her passphrase):
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# geli init /dev/da2
Enter new passphrase: (enter your passphrase)
Reenter new passphrase:
# geli setkey -n 1 /dev/da2
Enter passphrase: (enter your passphrase)
Enter new passphrase: (let your girlfriend to enter her passphrase ...)
Reenter new passphrase: (... twice)
.Ed
.Pp
You are security-person in your company.
Create encrypted provider for use by the user, but remember that users forget
their passphrases, so backup Master Key with your own random key:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# dd if=/dev/random of=/mnt/pendrive/keys/`hostname` bs=64 count=1
# geli init -P -K /mnt/pendrive/keys/`hostname` /dev/ad0s1e
# geli backup /dev/ad0s1e /mnt/pendrive/backups/`hostname`
(use key number 0, so encrypted Master Key by you will be overwriten)
# geli setkey -n 0 -k /mnt/pendrive/keys/`hostname` /dev/ad0s1e
(allow the user to enter his passphrase)
Enter new passphrase:
Reenter new passphrase:
.Ed
.Pp
Encrypted swap partition setup:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/ad0s1b bs=1m
# geli onetime -d -a 3des ad0s1b
# swapon /dev/ad0s1b.eli
