             Bug #: 54982
           Summary: Please provide functionality similar to decrypt_keyctl
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: systemd
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: systemd-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: maik at zumstrull.net
         QAContact: systemd-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org


Debian's cryptsetup packaging provides decrypt_keyctl, a key management script
that allows the user to specify that several LUKS devices use the same
passphrase that should only be requested once during boot.

To this end, a keyphrase successfully used to unlock a device is stored in the
secure kernel keyring for 60 seconds, and then automatically used to unlock any
other devices that come up in that time.

Please provide similar functionality in systemd's cryptsetup handling.
