Title: ecryptfs fails to mount (Unable to link the KEY_SPEC_USER_KEYRING into the KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING) Status in ecryptfs-utils package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: ecryptfs seems to be currently broken on Trusty. System: Trusty Linux: 3.13.0-8-generic #28-Ubuntu ecryptfs: 103-0ubuntu2 or 104-0ubuntu1 Any attempt to mount fails with: Unable to link the KEY_SPEC_USER_KEYRING into the KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING; there is something wrong with your kernel keyring. Did you build key retention support into your kernel? Original reporter mentioned earlier kernel also: ------------------------------------------------ I am using the fedora 19 default kernel, which should have ecryptfs support. I don't think something is wrong with my kernel. Nevertheless I get this strange error message. Googling it lead to nothing, so I suspect this is a bug in ecryptfs? iblue@silence ~/ecrypt-test lsmod | grep ecrypt ecryptfs 85466 0 encrypted_keys 18502 1 ecryptfs iblue@silence ~/ecrypt-test mkdir -m 700 private iblue@silence ~/ecrypt-test sudo mount -t ecryptfs private private Unable to link the KEY_SPEC_USER_KEYRING into the KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING; there is something wrong with your kernel keyring.
