10 ecryptfsd is a userspace daemon that runs as the user performing file
11 operations under the eCryptfs mount point. It services public key
12 requests from the eCryptfs kernel module; these requests are sent via
13 /dev/ecryptfs on file open events. ecryptfsd only needs to be run when
14 a mount is done with a public key module.
15
16 The daemon can be started simply by running ecryptfsd. ecryptfsd will
17 register itself with the kernel as the daemon that should service all
18 eCryptfs filesystem requests done under the context of the user who
19 runs the daemon.
