- crypto: Use system's vold for decryption
- If TWRP crypto fails to decrypt partition, mount the system
- partition and use system's own vold to attempt decryption.
- This provides a fallback for proprietary OEM encryption as well as
- encryption methods which TWRP hasn't been updated for.
- Requirements in device tree:
- * fstab.{ro.hardware} in device/recovery/root
- The fstab does not need to be complete, but it does need the
- data partition and the encryption entries.
- * 'TW_CRYPTO_USE_SYSTEM_VOLD := true' in BoardConfig
- or
- * 'TW_CRYPTO_USE_SYSTEM_VOLD := <list of services>'
- Notes:
- * Setting the flag to 'true' will just use system's vdc+vold
- or
- * Setting the flag with additional services, will also start them
- prior to attempting vdc+vold decryption, eg: for qualcomm based
- devices you usually need 'TW_CRYPTO_USE_SYSTEM_VOLD := qseecomd'
- * For each service listed an additional import will be automatically
- added to the vold_decrypt.rc file in the form of
- init.recovery.vold_decrypt.{service}.rc
- You will need to add any not already existing .rc files in
- your device/recovery/root folder.
- * The service names specified in the vold_decrypt.{service}.rc files
- have to be named 'sys_{service}'
- eg: 'service sys_qseecomd /system/bin/qseecomd'
- * Any service already existing in TWRP as {service} or sbin{service} will
- be stopped and restarted as needed.
- * You can override the default init.recovery.vold_decrypt.rc file(s)
- by placing same named ones in your device/recovery/root folder.
- If you do, you'll need to manually add the needed imports.
- * If /vendor and /firmware folders are temporarily moved and symlinked
- to the folders and files in the system partition, the properties
- 'vold_decrypt.symlinked_vendor' and 'vold_decrypt.symlinked_firmware'
- will be set to 1.
- This allows for additional control in the .rc files for any extra
- actions (symlinks, cp files, etc) that may be needed for decryption
- by using: on property:vold_decrypt.symlinked_vendor=1 and/or
- on property:vold_decrypt.symlinked_firmware=1 triggers.
- Debug mode: 'TW_CRYPTO_SYSTEM_VOLD_DEBUG := true' in BoardConfig
- * Specifying this flag, will enable strace on init and vdc, which will
- create separate log files in /tmp for every process created, allowing
- for detailed analysis of which services and files are being accessed.
- * Note that enabling strace will expose the password in the logs!!
- * You need to manually add strace to your build.
- Thanks to @Captain_Throwback for co-authoring and testing.
