Description Milan Broz 2011-03-15 15:34:44 UTC
Description of problem:
if cryptsetup is used with older kernel, it will print these warnings:

# cryptsetup luksClose x
WARNING: Secure data flag unsupported by kernel.  Buffers will not be wiped after use.

This warning should be at least moved to verbose level, it is common situation that only userspace is updated.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
