[gentoo-releng] gcloop updates

[Luca Barbato]

I committed a new ebuild for gcloop and a p.masked util-linux with a 
patched losetup.

Changes:
- Now the modules can be built statically and you can use cryptoloop 
(aes, blowfish, etc) and compressloop (ucl, maybe deflate) at the same 
time w/out problems.
- You need to patch losetup in order to make it load the compressloop 
xfer (number 19) and specify the right compressor (ucl-0).

everything is in the cvs and the d.g.o/~lu_zero/gcloop as usual.

Please check and tell me if I forgot something.

Regards

lu

Hi lu.

I was wondering if you have been following LKML and the thread about
the new crypto support - have you thought about using device-mapper
for this?  I am just thinking that it may make future kernel inclusion
possible ...
