Linux kernel for uConsole
Prefix all filesystem encryption UAPI constants except the ioctl numbers with "FSCRYPT_" rather than with "FS_". This namespaces the constants more appropriately and makes it clear that they are related specifically to the filesystem encryption feature, and to the 'fscrypt_*' structures. With some of the old names like "FS_POLICY_FLAGS_VALID", it was not immediately clear that the constant had anything to do with encryption. This is also useful because we'll be adding more encryption-related constants, e.g. for the policy version, and we'd otherwise have to choose whether to use unclear names like FS_POLICY_V1 or inconsistent names like FS_ENCRYPTION_POLICY_V1. For source compatibility with existing userspace programs, keep the old names defined as aliases to the new names. Finally, as long as new names are being defined anyway, I skipped defining new names for the fscrypt mode numbers that aren't actually used: INVALID (0), AES_256_GCM (2), AES_256_CBC (3), SPECK128_256_XTS (7), and SPECK128_256_CTS (8).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
