Support for LUKS detached headers #944

Open PoisonFrog opened 2 years ago

PoisonFrog commented 2 years ago

Can support for LUKS detached headers be added? It is possible to encrypt a block device with LUKS and detach the header, it would be nice if we could point to a detached header when trying to unlock a device with udisks.

Yes, this would be a valid and useful use case. There is some support in libblockdev already, needs enhancements in org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Encrypted.
